原文 New Water Margin triggers debate 新“水浒传”触发辩论 TV adaptations of the Four Great Classical Novels are like tap water in China - no matter how low the creative reservoir appears to sink, the supply never seems to run dry. Following satellite re-adaptations of Romance of the Three Kingdoms and A Dream of the Red Mansion last year, it`s time for - you guess it - another new version of Water Margin.在中国，根据四大名著改编而成的电视剧就像自来水一般，不管创意宝库枯竭得多快，供给总是源源不断。继去年《三国演义》和《红楼梦》被两家卫视翻拍之后，如你猜测的那样，这回该看新版《水浒传》了。 Adapted from the classic novel, the new show, All Men are Brothers is an 86-episode series broadcasting on major satellite TV channels every day, and is already midway through its showing.这个改编自经典小说的《新水浒》共86集，时下正是各大卫视的每日热播剧集，现在已经播出过半。 Modern values现代价值观 Aiming to give updated values to the traditional story, the new show has instead caused derision among viewers and critics.尽管《新水浒》旨在赋予这个传统故事以一种与时俱进的现代价值观，但反而招致观众以及评论家的嘲讽。 I knew Li Shaohong (A Dream of the Red Mansion), and Gao Xixi (Three Kingdoms) would stick to the originals, but I`ve decided to give a brand new adaptation, Hong Kong director Gaau Leung Guk claimed to media.香港导演鞠觉亮面对媒体采访时说：“我知道李少红（曾执导新《红楼梦》）和高希希（曾执导新《三国演义》）都坚持忠于原著，但我想要另一种全新的改编。 I never wanted to make TV to be authentic but instead to make an acceptable show for modern viewers in terms of character-building, costume, make-up and storyline, Guk added.鞠觉亮补充说：“我从没想让这部戏还原真实，相反我想通过人物塑造、服装、造型、故事情节等方面，为当代观众呈现一部合他们胃口的戏。” There are several controversial changes for Brothers. Pan Jinlian, portrayed as a loose woman in the original novel and a long-established symbol of such in China, is now recast as a hard-working virginal housewife in the first episodes, refusing several wealthy young suitors.《新水浒》中的一些改编颇受争议。原著中的潘金莲是一名放荡女子，且这种形象在中国人心中已根深蒂固了。如今，该人物在起初几集中被塑造成了一名勤劳纯洁的家庭妇女，拒绝了许多富家公子的追求。 In the novel, Pan murdered her husband with her lover, Ximen Qing. In the new adaption, her affair with Ximen is a romantic love story.小说中潘金莲与情人西门庆一起合谋杀害了她的丈夫。而新版中，她和西门庆的偷情行为却演变成了浪漫的爱情故事
