Jin Yong wasn't the only martial arts master. Why were Wen Ruian and Liang Yusheng's martial arts masters rarely made into TV dramas?
Wuxia was a broad literary genre that included not only classics such as Jin Yong, but also works by rising stars such as Wen Rui 'an and Liang Yusheng. Even so, due to the large number of wuxia works and the complicated plots and character settings of many works, it was difficult to make them into television dramas. In addition, the theme and emotions of Wuxia works were more profound, requiring higher production costs and casting. Therefore, TV series producers needed to spend more time and energy on selecting actors and production plans. In addition, Wuxia works usually involved a large number of martial arts and battle scenes, which required professional special effects and production techniques. This was also one of the reasons why the producers needed to invest more money and energy. For the above reasons, although Wen Ruian and Liang Yusheng's martial arts novels were very popular, it was difficult to make them into TV series on a large scale, especially those works with high literary value. However, with the development of TV production technology and the market, there may be more martial arts works being made into TV series in the future, giving us the opportunity to see more martial arts works appear in front of the audience.
