Many people who have read the novel are upset because the second part did not follow the novel. When it comes to TV series alone, each has its own merits.
The first part
Advantages: The momentum of the Qin army and the bloody spirit of the old Qin people are shown
Disadvantages: The character creation is very failed, only the image of Shang Yang is successful. The whole play is a duet between Shang Yang and Qin Xiaogong. The love with Bai Xue is too fake.
The second part
Advantages: The intimidation of the Tiger and Wolf Master of the Great Qin Dynasty is performed, and the character creation is generally good
Disadvantages: Tranquility is a bit scary, not suitable for playing Mi Bazi, but it’s okay in the later stages.
Zhang Yi’s life image is pretty good, but she really doesn’t have the ability to lobby other countries.
Overall, they are all good and worth watching
