Chapter 177: My sister-in-law is coming
Investing in "Journey to the West", Yi Qing thought about it a long time ago, in addition to his parents and relatives, this mythological drama is probably the most profound childhood memory in his previous life.
Now that he has the ability and opportunity, of course Yi Qing wants to make up for the regrets of his previous life through some means, although now he will finish filming all the Journey to the West stories at one time, limited by technical conditions, he may not be as good as the sequel of the 99 version in terms of picture quality, but there is nothing to replace this thing.
However, Yi Qing didn't say anything about this matter, even Li Chengru didn't tell him, but just said to Li Chengru that if the crew needs help in the future, just contact him.
Thinking about it, the Journey to the West crew is really short of money, and it is about to stop filming, Li Chengru should be able to remember the money in Yi Qing's pocket.
In the previous life, China Railway 11th Bureau seemed to have invested 2 million in the end, supporting the filming of another ten episodes, but it still failed to present the story of Journey to the West to the audience.
Yi Qing roughly calculated that if all the filming is to be completed, almost 5 million is enough.
In 99, CCTV made up "Journey to the West" and got 16 episodes, but in fact, there are only 11 complete stories, and the 86 version is a unit story per episode, and when it comes to the sequel, it has to be broken into two episodes, and old viewers will feel awkward when they watch it.
As we all know, the 86 version deleted the plot because of time and funding problems, it should be said that the sequel has no such limitations, and the restoration of the original plot should be more sufficient, but the truth is the opposite.
The 99 version of the sequel may have been to lengthen the length, adding a lot of dragging storylines, almost every difficulty has a relationship between men and women, and adding a large number of unnecessary female characters.
This is especially a monk to learn from the scriptures, and it is not Qianlong who went to the south of the Yangtze River and added so many emotional dramas, don't you feel that it is against harmony?
In addition, the details of the plot are completely devoid of the previous nature, Yi Qing even felt stuffy in his chest when he watched it in his previous life, in the 86 version of the storyline, there are many detailed portrayals of the feelings of master and apprentice, especially Tang Seng repeatedly misunderstood Sun Wukong, and Sun Wukong still did not hesitate to help the master obtain the true scriptures without regrets, such feelings, no superfluous words, no sensational shots, just one look at each other, can be fully expressed.
But in the sequel, it was completely different, Yi Qing even felt that Tang Seng's eyes were as if he had a grudge against Sun Wukong, the only time Tang Seng missed Sun Wukong's plot, and it took a lot of time to describe Rory's rambling description in the sequel, but he refused to spend a little more time on the interaction between master and apprentice, which felt contrived.
If it is preconceived, it may not be so, after all, in the history of the development of film and television dramas, there are many examples that can prove that many later remakes have surpassed the previous old versions, such as the CCTV version of "Water Margin", Yi Qing feels that it is better than the Lu version.
In addition, before the 86 version of the TV series "Journey to the West", there were many different versions of movies and TV series, such as the Shaw Brothers movie "Journey to the West", the Japanese TV series "Journey to the West", etc., all of which did not receive such a high level of attention and recognition as the 86 version of "Journey to the West".
When Yi Qing was still in the Journey to the West crew, Director Yang Jie once mentioned that they filmed "Journey to the West" not for fame, not for profit, not for awards, but just to take "Journey to the West" seriously, even if the conditions are difficult, they can have good works if they work hard.
On the contrary, look at the later sequels, rush for quick success, treat special effects as plots, fancy as intentions, and don't care about what is filmed at all, as long as you have money, how can you shoot something meaningful?
has money, many places don't need to make do anymore, and the conditions have been greatly improved, but the whole shot is a big disappointment, if you use a metaphor to describe it, it is, the old version is winemaking, the sequel is wine, and the taste of wine is bound to be different.
The wine is still the same name, but there is only one outer packaging left, and many things in it have changed their taste, and it is still a problem with the actors, many supporting roles have adopted the original cast, but the four core masters and apprentices have changed two.
The 99 version of Zhu Bajie's expression is not natural enough, and in terms of eyes, subtle movements, etc., Cui Jingfu is not as good as Mr. Ma Dehua.
And the monk Sha played by Mr. Liu Dagang has dull eyes and a wooden expression, and he does not reflect the righteousness of Mr. Yan Huaili in his eyes, and as a Peking Opera actor, Liu Dagang has a lot of stylized performances in opera when performing film and television dramas, so that the movements and expressions are very blunt, not natural and life-oriented.
Splitting the master and apprentice who have been partners for more than ten years will inevitably lead to the loss of the previous tacit understanding, as well as the feeling of being a perfect match, the so-called "sequel" is the feeling that it must be connected to the original twenty-five episodes, and everyone has changed, and it must feel awkward.
In addition, as the core character of the whole play, although Sun Wukong did not change actors, it is no different from changing people, the 86 version of Sun Wukong looks natural, but the sequel first gives people the feeling that Mao is too yellow and too smooth, this monkey is the same as a domestic one, giving people a very fake feeling, and the 86 version of the lean and neat is completely gone.
In addition, the four masters and apprentices traveled a long distance in groups, but they were surprisingly clean and clean, more like a group trip, and the effect itself was unconvincing.
The soundtrack is even worse, the 86 version of "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is", as long as the prelude sounds, you can think of the picture of "Journey to the West", the sequel is missing the creation of Mr. Xu Jingqing, it can be said that it also deducts a lot of points from the whole, and the sequel soundtrack lacks characteristics as a whole, the content is empty, and it is difficult to impress the audience.
There is also a martial arts design, which is about to portray Sun Wukong as a Jin Yong hero, as long as the fight is the same BGM, it will inevitably feel boring after watching too much.
In addition, I have to mention that there are repeated martial arts scenes, which looks too fake.
It's not as good as the previous work in every way.,Despite the brand of the sequel.,But it's really hard to accept this thing to come out.,Since it's an unacceptable thing.,Is there still a need to exist?
It must be brought over from the root, just now, with these people, with these conditions, and with this scientific and technological means, let these people finish the story of Journey to the West with their hearts.
"What are you writing about?"
When Yi Qing was writing and drawing in the notebook, he suddenly heard someone talking behind him, and he couldn't help but be startled, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Fu Yiwei, and he pretended to close the notebook calmly.
Regarding some things about future plans, Yi Qing likes to write them down in his book now, and the injection of "Journey to the West" is naturally no exception, but he was too involved in writing the plan and forgot that it was in the main room.
"It's nothing, just write it down, have a few new ideas, write it down first!"
Fu Yiwei also has no doubt about him, Yi Qing's creative ability, she has seen it with her own eyes, she thought it was quite fresh at first, and she likes to ask questions, but as Yi Qing's works become more and more, she is not very interested.
"Oh, by the way, I'll tell you something. ”
"What's wrong?"
"Xiao Min has a letter!"
Xiaomin, who is Xiaomin?
Yi Qing didn't react at once: "Xiao Min is ~~~~~~!
Fu Yiwei saw that Yi Qing could even forget her sister's name, and a roll of his eyes floated over angrily: "Yes, it's your sister-in-law, she wrote to say that she was going to come to the capital." ”
That's it?
"Come on, come on!
Yi Qing still has a good impression of this sister-in-law, when he came to the door for the first time, the sister-in-law saw that he said good things for his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.
When Fu Yiwei heard this, he saw that Yi Qing didn't understand what it meant, so he hurriedly said: "She will come, but ~~~ But you haven't thought about it, after she comes, she will know everything ~~~~~, what will she do then?"
it!
Yi Qing also reacted at this time, but if the sister-in-law came, when the time came, it would be bad to see the two of them living together.
When he brought Fu Yiwei to the capital, he promised his future mother-in-law that the two of them would be behaving before they got married, and they would definitely not cross the thunder pond by half a step.
As a result, I ~~~~~~~~ on the first night I arrived in the capital
"You took the initiative. ”
Boom!
A pillow flew over and smashed directly on Yi Qing's head.
Fu Yiwei originally wanted to discuss with Yi Qing how to deal with the surprise inspection of his little sister, but this heartless guy actually came up with such a sentence.
Is it time to pass the buck?
"Say, who took the initiative?"
Fu Yiwei's eyebrows were about to stand up.
Seeing this, Yi Qing decisively admitted: "That, I remembered it wrong, I took the initiative, I took the initiative, so what, when will Xiao Min arrive?"
Fu Yiwei said angrily: "It seems that the time of the letter, she said that she set off on the 8th, and now it is the 10th, and she said that it should arrive on the 11th, that is, tomorrow." ”
Although Fu Yimin came over, she was very happy, after all, she hadn't seen her family for so long, and she couldn't go back during the Chinese New Year, but as soon as Fu Yimin came, she was worried that the matter between the two of them would be discovered, and she was very worried.
"What do you say, what should I do? If Xiao Min finds out, my mother will have to break my leg!"
Yi Qing thought of the arrogance on the wine table of her mother-in-law in the future, and she also felt weak in her heart, she was usually very smart and paid attention to a lot of people, and now she didn't know what to do.
"Probably not, when the time comes, I'll go to live in the wing, and she will still find out?"
So far, that's all it can be.
"Then you will go to live in the wing room today!"
Go today?
Li Chengru only got a son with him today, he was hot, during the day, he was still wondering if he was working hard and having one with Fu Yiwei, but he was going to be swept out of the house today, so what can he do!
"Or ~~~~~~~~ tomorrow!"
Yi Qing stood up as he spoke, and arrived in front of him in two steps, and before Fu Yiwei could react, he was picked up by Yi Qing, and then the two of them rolled onto the bed.
"You can't ~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~"
No, do men say no when they say no?
