Chapter 60: That One Hero
Although Li Fangcheng also wanted to use someone from Huaxia to be responsible for the composition of the game in this regard.
But! now Huaxia ....
Hey, shaking his head, although Xiao Tiancai has been slowly stopping, Xiaobawang has not started to make pirated games for the time being, but there are other manufacturers doing it! What Yuxing, Pegasus, Ket, etc., and other manufacturers are still producing pirated game consoles. No one is making an original game at all, and the corresponding soundtrack, then no one will try it at all.
There is not a single original game in China, what musician in China would be stupid enough to study the game soundtrack without doing his job? Come on, don't be whimsical, Li Fangcheng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
The music sector has been decided, and the next step is to ask Karasawa Kaiyan to help, with the help of Sega's fame, and talk directly to the door in Japan, then the success rate will increase a lot.
The problem of music has been solved, and the problem of film and television has troubled Li Fangcheng again.
TV series, Li Fangcheng is not ready to touch, if the market for movies is laid out globally, then TV series mainly serve families in their respective countries, so in contrast, TV series, even if there are some, are just as popular all over the world, but it is too difficult and too few to produce, combine with games and other aspects.
So the TV series, don't think about it first, the movie, but it is urgent!
Li Fangcheng thought about it and wrote four words on the paper, Wukong is back!
This is four words, not the name of the original novel, the original only three words, Wukong Biography!
In 1986, the official launch of Journey to the West caused an uproar in China, and the myth of 89.4% of the ratings has not been broken so far!
Even the later return of the pearl could not be done.
This is an adaptation of the Ming Dynasty novelist Wu Chengen's literary classic of the same name. It is a 41-episode costume mythological drama produced by China International Television Corporation. Directed by Yang Jie, co-written by Dai Yinglu, Yang Jie, and Zou Yiqing, starring Liu Xiaolingtong, Xu Shaohua, Chi Chongrui, Wang Yue, Ma Dehua, Cui Jingfu, Yan Huaili, Liu Dagang, etc.
The play tells the story of Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Seng Xuanzang, a senior monk of the Tang Dynasty, who went to the West to learn scriptures.
It can be said that among the four famous novels, there is only one novel and TV that is suitable for all ages.
As the old saying goes, if you don't look at the Water Margin, you don't look at the Three Kingdoms. The Red Mansion is high, its harmony is high, and there are only a few people who love it, only Journey to the West, which is truly suitable for all ages and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In many families, when children are playing, if there is a stick in their hands, they think that they are the Monkey King, so when they go out and see the red and yellow plastic pipe, they call it the golden hoop stick.
There are some illiterate old people who always like to watch the monkey when they turn on the TV, calling back and forth, and it looks lively.
In the eyes of Taoists, they will think that this book is a golden formula, but in the eyes of Buddhists, this book is a Zen mind. And in the reader's verification, this book is a sincere science book. There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people, and it is the same if this is replaced by Journey to the West.
The memory of Journey to the West has begun to form in the hearts of countless children.
The overwhelming Journey to the West has made countless children, in their teenage cognition, who would like the gentle and weak Tang Seng? Who would especially like the fat-headed, big-eared, hateful-looking Bajie? And who likes the humanoid self-propelled luggage sand monk with a skull hanging around his neck? Only one Monkey King, the Monkey King, is the first hero we want to become.
Just like the captain of the rice country in the West, he became the first hero of the first nation.
Why did Sun Wukong become our hero?
Yes, strong, because he showed that he was strong.
When there was a lot of trouble in the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Gods and Buddhas were defeated one by one by a monkey who dared to be equal to the heavens.
On the way to learn the scriptures, under the incompetence of Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng, he became even more skilled.
The world of children is always simple, black and white.
Aren't those ridiculous Heavenly Gods and Buddhas, those vulnerable roadblockers on the way to the scriptures, and the Heavenly Gods and Buddhas different from the teachers who assigned homework when they were children? Aren't the roadblock monsters different from those who bully their classmates?
So when we were children, of course, we hoped that we were the invincible monkeys, that we had a powerful wishful golden hoop stick, that we could have fiery eyes and seventy-two changes, but as for the failure of the Heavenly Palace and the suffering on the way to learn the scriptures, they didn't care.
The image of Sun Wukong was remembered by countless people at once.
In the cognition of all children, Sun Wukong is the Sun Wukong who used to be lawless, but later completely abandoned evil and followed the rules to learn from the West because of a tight mantra.
Children watch heroes, while adults watch lively.
After 500 years of repression, he was still in high spirits after coming out, until a tight spell convinced the monkey whose heart was higher than the sky, is it possible?
For 500 years, no one spoke, no one communicated, and for 500 years of quietness, there was no change in the slightest change in the mind, is this possible? So in the eyes of the parents, this is just a fictional story, lacking the flesh and blood of real human nature.
is high, that is, he really regards himself as an ethereal Monkey King.
And the legend of Wukong, as an adult's eyes, to re-examine and reinterpret another Monkey King.
I want this day, and I can't cover my eyes anymore
If you want this land, you can't bury my heart anymore
I want all living beings to understand what I mean
Let all the Buddhas disappear
- The Legend of Wukong
This is not Sun Wukong's words, but what Xuanzang said, when Xuanzang was answering his master's question about what he wanted to learn.
For Sun Wukong, the gods and Buddhas in the sky are bigger than him and stand taller than him, but their hearts are timid, and they need to look up to him. They fear change, but they can only passively wait for it. Finally, the change came.
But when a stone falls into the water, no matter how big it is, the ripples of the water will eventually subside.
The Great Sage is just a stone, and he still failed in the end.
He boasts that he can match the sky, but the enemy is the sky.
One pressure is 500 years.
A biography of Wukong, leaving behind countless classic sentences, taking off the indomitable halo, removing the shadow of the original, a new Monkey King, a flesh-and-blood, more real Monkey King, just like this, when the new century came, it was born, shocked countless people, and played an epoch-making significance.
When the ethereal becomes real, countless people's emotions burst out like this!
If there is no new positioning of Wukong Biography, the return of the later anime may not have much soil, even if there is a new angle of analysis, but after the return of the Great Sage appeared on the big screen, aren't there still many people who can't understand and can't accept the image of Sun Wukong?
In the final analysis, people's perception of Monkey King later is nothing more than the current TV series and the animation Journey to the West that appeared later in 1999 under the dual influence, and the image perception of Monkey King by the Chinese people has become the Monkey King with a sharp mouth and a monkey cheek, bowing forward.
And the Monkey King who returned from the Great Sage, this is an interpretation that Li Fangcheng has always known well, a more resolute appearance, rather than a pleasing image, isn't this a better presentation for a great sage whose heart is higher than the sky?
And the Great Sage and Jiang Liuer were originally in our hearts, but they were lost at some point.
When we are determined to give meaning to our existence, we become great sages, and when we are willing to make ourselves the meaning of others, we become Jiang Liuer. So to watch the return of the Great Sage is not to look at other people's lives, but to look at one you and the other.
Monkey King, a complex and monolithic ensemble.
Li Fangcheng thought about it, and decided to choose to use the theme of Monkey King for the first meal of the Age of Miracles!
Use the novel of Wukong as a foreshadowing, use the movie of the return of the Great Sage as a punishment, and adapt it with the game Journey to the West as the final ending.
From novels to comics, through to movies, and finally back to games.
This is the first appearance of All Entertainment!
The corners of Li Fangcheng's mouth couldn't help but smile, this is a well-prepared all-entertainment feast! A feast that takes a long time and is carefully prepared!
In this day and age, who can resist such a terrible power?
Inexistent!
In this era, the impression of the Monkey King has not been completely solidified, and even many people have not even read the four famous novels, which is not surprising at all, if it were not for the launch of Journey to the West in 1986, followed by Dream of Red Mansions in 1987, and a Romance of the Three Kingdoms in 1994, the last Water Margin in 1998, the four famous novels have been made into TV series one after another, plus in which era there is no program to speak of, the supporting four masterpieces are also highly respected and recognized by the state, and even once became one of the must-read literature for men, women and children。
In the 80s, there were no VCD, DVD, EVD and other playback equipment, and even television was very rare, and the most important way to watch movies was dormitory movies! The number of movie theaters now is even more than in the late 90s! This is the key reason why Li Fangcheng really decided to put the film project on the agenda.
For several days in a row, Li Fangcheng was on the line at two o'clock every day, the warehouse and the residence.
Re-wrote the ideas in my head.,Especially the re-writing of Wukong.,The plot has been combined with the return of the great sage later.,After all, although the plots of the two are different.,But the framework is similar.,Until the end of the draft.,A new novel name jumped on the paper.。
"The Legend of the Great Sage"!
