Qian Zhongshu's Fortress Besieged had been adapted into movies and TV series many times, but there were several reasons why it had not been adapted into a movie: 1. The novel itself is of high quality: Fortress Besieged is one of Qian Zhongshu's representative works and is regarded as one of the classics of modern Chinese literature. Its language is humorous, its thoughts are profound, and the plot is complicated. It requires a certain literary accomplishment to fully understand it. Therefore, adapting it into a movie or TV series required finding suitable actors and directors to ensure its quality and enjoyment, which was relatively high for the production cost of the movie or TV series. 2. The theme of the novel is not suitable for a movie: Fortress Besieged mainly tells the story of an intellectual's siege. It reflects the differences between urban and rural areas in China and the complexity of human nature. The theme is profound and complicated, and it is difficult to express it completely through simple visual expressions. Movies needed to attract audiences quickly, and often pursued exciting plots and visual shocks. Therefore, they might choose more relaxed and interesting topics and expressions. 3. The copyright issue: Fortress Besieged is Qian Zhongshu's private work, and the copyright has always been owned by Qian Zhongshu and his family. Adapting it into a movie or TV series required the authorization of Qian Zhongshu's copyright owner. Otherwise, they might face legal risks. Therefore, it was very difficult for film or television drama companies to obtain the adaptation rights of Fortress Besieged, which was one of the reasons why Fortress Besieged was not adapted into a movie. In summary, the above reasons may be one of the reasons why Qian Zhongshu's Fortress Besieged was not adapted into a movie.
