Chapter 374: The Great Gods Interpret Journey to the West
The strange book came out of the world.
The horrific sales figures were accompanied by countless friends who couldn't have bought this book to join in the purchase.
Especially those friends who never read books, and even some friends who don't know how to read.
However, a Journey to the West made them like that demon monkey.
You don't see that in the circle of friends, the screen is full of pictures of Journey to the West.
You don't see all the bookstores, Journey to the West has become a masterpiece that countless readers queue up to buy.
You don't see that the storytelling industry has recovered again, but the storytellers started from Huaguo Mountain.
Students, teachers, social elites, officials, farmers, grandfathers, grandmothers, children...... Journey to the West, completely killing.
Affected by this, a series of interpretations of Journey to the West followed, but they filled the entire network.
First of all, it is the prototype of the four Tang monks who learned scriptures from the west.
Was there a Tang monk in history?
Was there a Monkey King in history?
Is there a Zhu Bajie in history?
The answer is yes.
Historically, there were.
After Zhu Shixing became a monk and received ordination, he studied and explained "Sketch Prajna" in Luoyang, and felt that the translation of the scriptures was not finished. Because the translator omitted a lot of the content that he could not understand, the meaning of the words was unclear and incoherent. When he heard that there was a complete "Da Pin Jing" in the Western Regions, he decided to travel far away to find the original.
It can be said that Zhu Shixing is the first person in history to travel to the west to learn scriptures.
As for Sun Wukong, there is also this character in history, and his legal name is called Wukong.
Compared with Zhu Shixing, Wukong's story is more expressive.
Wukong's common name before becoming a monk was Che Fengchao, and at the age of twenty, he was ordered by the emperor to go to the Western Regions. Cha Bongchao was in charge of the security of the entire mission, and whenever the bandits attacked, he responded calmly and took the lead. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is tall and courageous, and he is used to using a 36-pound wrought iron rod, is it very familiar, yes, it is Wukong's wishful golden hoop stick. After more than three years and countless calamities, the Che Feng Dynasty finally reached the Winter Palace of the Popin Kingdom - the Gandhara Castle.
It's just a pity that when Che Fengchao arrived there, he was infected with a plague. The local shaman said that there was absolutely no chance of survival for those infected with the disease. It's just a miracle that Che Fengchao actually got better under the care of a local mage. Perhaps it was a serious illness that made Che Fengchao fully enlightened, so he joined the local mage and devoted himself to practicing Buddhism.
Cha Fengchao was very smart and very diligent, and he became a famous master in the Western Regions. It's just that another 30 years have passed since spring turned to autumn. Perhaps it was the idea of returning to the roots in old age, and Che Fengchao set off to return to Datang. The monarch of the Tang Dynasty was overjoyed when he saw Che Fengchao coming back, thinking that he would not forget his homeland in his old age, and named him a strong general. After receiving the seal, Cha Fengchao returned to his hometown and wanted to visit his relatives at home. It's just that when he returned to his hometown, what was waiting for him was a big tree growing on the grave of his parents and wife.
At this moment, no matter how strong the iron man is, he can't stop crying sadly.
The unconcerned Che Fengchao returned to Chang'an and asked the emperor to become a monk, Dezong agreed, and gave Che Fengchao the legal name Wukong......
However, whether it is Wukong or Zhu Shixing, compared to the prototype of Tang Seng, it is much less famous.
The prototype of Tang Seng is the famous Tang Xuanzang in history.
Tang Xuanzang was a famous monk in the Tang Dynasty, because he was proficient in Buddhist scriptures, laws, and the three Tibets, so he was also called the Sanzang Master. In order to explore the differences between the various schools of Buddhism, Tang Xuanzang traveled 50,000 miles west in the first year of Zhenguan, and arrived at Nalanda Temple, the center of Indian Buddhism, to obtain the true scriptures. The famous Prajnamita Heart Sutra is the translation of Tang Xuanzang. Not only that, Tang Xuanzang also wrote a "Chronicle of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" about his deeds of going to the Western Regions to learn scriptures.
As for the sand monk, he failed to find a historical prototype. However, some historical researchers believe that Sha Seng should be a monk from the Western Regions who followed Tang Seng...... As for whether it is or not, it is unknown.
Of course, this is not the only one that countless readers have studied.
Journey to the West has been sprinkled more than 100 times, in which every story, every plot, and every character has been analyzed and analyzed by countless readers. Even if Sun Wukong was beaten three times by Patriarch Bodhi, there are allusions in history. This allusion comes from the six ancestors Huineng, when the teacher of the six ancestors Huineng also hit the six ancestors three times, the six ancestors not only did not get angry, but happy, and secretly came to the patriarch's door at the third watch that night, the ancestor surrounded the six ancestors Huineng with a robe, so as not to be discovered, and then explained the Diamond Sutra to Huineng one by one. When it comes to "should have no place to live and give birth to its heart", Huineng was enlightened and became a generation of famous monks.
However, there are also some researchers who specialize in exploring some of the more interesting places.
For example, who is the Bodhi Patriarch in Journey to the West?
For another example, what is the relationship between the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor.
There are also those who said that you can live forever by eating Tang monk meat, and could it be a conspiracy?
When the Jade Emperor couldn't win against Sun Wukong, why did he invite Rulai and not Taoist immortals.
Some even began to study whether the red boy was the son of the Bull Demon King.
Is Zhu Bajie's strength really inferior to Sun Wukong?
The smartest of the four Tang monks may be the sand monks.
Why does Sun Wukong not get smaller when he is pressed under the Five Elements Mountain.
and whether Sun Wukong and Tang Seng are a pair of good friends, or whether they have sincere feelings in the long-term cooperation.
There are also a series of jokes about Journey to the West that were generated after watching Journey to the West.
Why don't you bring a USB flash drive when you go to the west to learn scriptures.
The success of the four mentors and apprentices shows that the team is very important.
If the four Tang Seng are on the blind date show, Tang Seng will definitely have 24 lights on, why, because Tang Seng is the emperor's brother-in-law, a famous family, handsome, and rich, a typical rich and handsome.
Regardless of this, of course.
Everything proves all the time that the charm of Journey to the West, a masterpiece of the world.
"Oh my God, this Journey to the West is really like crazy. ”
Watching the number of sales copies of Journey to the West break domestic records again and again, the CEOs of dozens of film and television companies were dumbfounded.
"Looks like we're going to have to talk to Mo Bai again. ”
If the copyright of 1 billion yuan shouted by Mo Bai before is a sky-high price.
Then, when they saw that Journey to the West caused a sensation throughout the country, dozens of film and television companies finally discovered that Journey to the West was worth the price.
It's just that when dozens of film and television companies looked for Mo Bai again, Mo Bai rejected their offer.
"I'm sorry, Journey to the West is now more than 1 billion yuan. ”
Joke.
At the beginning, you didn't buy 1 billion, but now after seeing Journey to the West sensation in China, you don't want to sell it to you for 1 billion.
"Mo Baiju, 1 billion is not sold yet, how much do you want to sell?"
Some of the people in the city wept.
1 billion RMB...... What kind of concept is this, and even this girl thinks it's cheap?
"About 10 billion. ”
"10 Billion ......"
Seeing this data, Bo Khan fainted directly.
"Mo Baiju, don't play it, we know the Journey to the West classics, and I also think that Journey to the West is a masterpiece, or even a masterpiece no less than the four famous novels, but even if it is a famous book, his copyright fee should not be so much. That's not the point, though, the point is, they really can't afford it this time. ”
1 billion may be sky-high, but some film and television companies grit their teeth and can really get 1 billion yuan.
But this 10 billion yuan, really, this time is really unaffordable.
"I know they can't afford it. ”
Mo Bai smiled and said.
10 billion only buys the copyright of a book, and the richest man is afraid when he comes.
"Then you still said 10 billion, you don't want to sell it?"
"No, sell, sell, sell, of course...... However, since they can't afford it, I'll sell it separately. ”
"Sell them separately?"
What does it mean that there is some of the Bean Khan?
"That's good, when the time comes, I will hold a Journey to the West film and television copyright auction, and you can just ask these film and television companies to come over for auction. ”
Without much explanation, Mo Bai said.
"Okay. ”
Berhan nodded.
Although I don't know what Mo Bai just said about selling separately, it's good that Mo Bai is willing to sell film and television copyrights.
Immediately, Bohan immediately told the editor-in-chief of Mo Bai's words, and made a phone call to major film and television companies.
