Before the filming of "Journey to the West", everyone also liked and hated the catastrophe in the original work, and after the filming, Journey to the West was the most popular, or the most eye-catching overall comparison, probably the Havoc in the Heavenly Palace, Three Dozen White Bone Spirits, True and False Monkey King, Daughter Country, and Lion Camel Ridge.

Of course, this is not to say that other calamities are bad, but after everyone reads them, the most vivid memories are probably these calamities.

The surprise of havoc in the Heavenly Palace, the glue of three dozen white bone spirits, the stimulation of the real and false Monkey King, the tenderness and beauty of the king of the daughter country, and the strongest monster in Lion Camel Ridge.

Of course, some people say that the strongest is the Yellow Lion Spirit, but in the TV series, the picture of Dapeng and Lingshan Arhats shooting is indeed shocking to the small audience.

In the first ten episodes, only two appeared.

The real and fake Monkey King is probably the favorite of children and the most discussed on the Internet.

Children like it because they see two monkeys appear, and the two monkeys are still the same skill.

Probably many children have naïve thoughts, such as how nice it would be if two monkeys joined forces to make trouble in the heavenly palace again.

Of course, Chen Ange has had such thoughts, even now, he is thinking like this.

It's just that now that I've grown up, some of the things in "Journey to the West" do have a little deep meaning, but for children, what the hell is the deep meaning?

Therefore, for adults, this demon monkey, which is exactly the same as Sun Wukong, is called a six-eared macaque, and it has a touch of mystery on it.

It is said that it is not a six-eared macaque at all, but something made up by Rulai, after all, if you can really know the past and the future, why do you want to go to Rulai? and let Sun Wukong kill him.

It is also said that the so-called six-eared macaque is completely the incarnation of Sun Wukong himself, he directed and acted in a play, if he just saw through it and did not say it, after all, his baby apprentice Jin Chanzi was indeed misunderstood by Sun Wukong three times and twice.

Of course, some people say that it was not the six-eared macaque that was killed at all, but the real Monkey King, and even swore to find out the clues in the play, such as Sun Wukong has become more obedient since then, and even began to become slippery.

Of course, these so-called statements are actually the words of the audience, just take the latter statement.

Not to mention that there is not much connection between the first level and the first level of "Journey to the West", even if there is a connection, it is definitely not that after the real or false Monkey King, Sun Wukong has no blood.

And the difficulty of the true and false Monkey King is exactly what Chen Ange used to save this broken watch.

……

"How many episodes of "Journey to the West" are going to make!"

"Forty-five episodes are preliminarily estimated!"

Chen Ange eliminated the bad things and added the good things.

Chen Tiehua raised her eyebrows: "It's difficult to make up enough eighty-one?"

"No need!" Chen Ange shook his head.

Although it is definitely possible to make eighty-one difficult, after all, he has watched many versions in his previous life, but "Journey to the West" does not need to be so long.

As long as this film is taken out, it is a big mountain, even Zhao Tongming's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" can't compare.

"But in the meantime...... I want to make a movie!"

Chen Tiehua was stunned: "Movie?

Chen Ange coughed dryly: "No, I thought of it recently, isn't this a movie that hasn't been released this year, this "Journey to the West" is estimated to be filmed until the end of the year, and it can be released during the Spring Festival!"

Chen Tiehua stared at Chen Ange with a strange expression: "Do you want to use our equipment, people, and wages to make a movie for you?"

"Hey, what's this called, I will definitely open the salary, but people, I must have to borrow a few people, you know, although I have slowed down the filming of "Journey to the West", but compared with other directors, it is still much faster, and if this "Journey to the West" is entrusted to someone else to shoot, how much do you think it will take, and how much do I spend now? You should know the budget of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the budget of "Journey to the West" is not even half of it!"

"Well, anyway, the budget is like this, if you spend too much on it, you can do it yourself, and the equipment and the like have already been entrusted to you, but there is one thing you need to pay attention to, that is, in December, I want to see the complete "Journey to the West". ”

"No problem!"

……

There is no difference between state investment and individual taking money.

For example, the budget of "Journey to the West", this budget must be spent, of course, this is not an explicit rule, but an unspoken rule.

If you say that you saved a third of your money, or even a half of your money, then others will definitely look at you with stupid eyes.

Another big reason is that the upper part will doubt your ability at that time.

To put it bluntly, the budget was set at the beginning, and this budget was not only proposed by the director himself, but also allocated to you after the project was established.

However, even if the budget of "Journey to the West" is only half of that of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", this money is only spent less than one-fifth.

Because according to the above idea, a masterpiece must be filmed for at least two years, after all, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was filmed for more than two years.

But Chen Ange's shooting speed is fast, and if you want to say that you really spend a lot of money, it is probably in clothing, food, housing, transportation and special effects.

And with that money, there is no problem in supporting this group of actors until next year, and there is even a surplus.

But this money must not be left, and even if it is left, it can only be symbolically left hundreds of thousands.

This is the unspoken rule of adult society.

Of course, with the current popularity of "Journey to the West", Chen Ange has completed the task in a super long time, so the follow-up shooting, even if Chen Ange says that the money is not enough, there is absolutely no mention of appropriation.

It is a matter of the culture of the country, the direction of the wind is like this, and no one dares to stop the footsteps of a great country.

……

"What? making a movie?"

"Yes, it's not idle or idle, just make a movie and have fun!"

Aha?

Idle is also idle?

Ren Fengke has never felt that he is idle, although he is not the protagonist in the play, he has been playing some small roles, and he is happy to play these roles.

Every time I play it, I feel like I've lived someone else's life.

Although the filming of "Journey to the West" has indeed slowed down now, it is nonsense to say that it is idle.

"Ren Lao, you are not the protagonist in this new play, but you have never been exposed to the movie genre this time!"

Ren Feng raised his eyebrows.

Haven't touched the genre?

Shh

Ren Feng is fifty years old, and he has been in the entertainment industry for almost forty years, and he has never been exposed to any type of film.

So as soon as Chen Ange's words came out, he was really interested: "If you talk about a genre that I haven't heard of, I don't want money to star in your movie!"

"Really?"

"Seriously!"

"Cheng, my new film is about zombies!"

Ren Feng: ......

Corpse......

"You mean Lady Bones?"

Chen Ange shook his head.

In fact, the early zombies and the later zombies were completely two products.

A more straightforward explanation is just the simple meaning of a zombie, and as for the statement that the drought is a zombie, there is also a very big gap with the early legend, and there is a suspicion that later generations will attach it.

For example, in "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong called the true face of Lady Bones a zombie.

There are also zombies leaning on the cave in "Water Jing Note", the dry bones are still complete, but there is no skin and hair! The zombies in this are dead corpses.

And to say that the initial formation of zombies is probably due to "Zi Bu Yu" and "Notes on Reading Wei Caotang".

In "Zi Bu Si", the zombie has changed, and even wrote about fighting zombies: fighting for a long time, until the rooster crows, the female body falls to the ground, and it is a zombie. Tomorrow, the official will burn it, and this monster will be extinguished.

It can be seen that in Zi Bu Si, zombies can already hurt people, but they can only haunt at night, and they will fall to the ground when the rooster crows, and they can be destroyed by burning with fire.

The zombies in this are almost the same as the zombies in the movie, they haunt at night, and they are afraid of the dawn, but the rooster cries in the film and television and will not fall to the ground directly, and they can be burned by fire.

In "Mr. Zombie", when Uncle Nine dug up the corpse of the old lady, he proposed cremation, probably borrowed from here.

So at this time, zombies can only be active at night, afraid of roosters and fire.

Until the "Mr. Zombie" series, the product of zombies was perfected in the true sense.

Bloodsucking and being afraid of garlic are the characteristics of Western vampires, so the zombies in the Mr. Zombie series are actually a product of a combination of Chinese and Western.

Although there is no Qing Dynasty here, there are still a few rumors in the Xiangxi generation.

Chase away corpses, Gu poison, falling flower cave girl!

So when Chen Ange told Yicai the story before, Yicai's eyes widened, how could it be different from what she had heard.

And the ninth uncle who holds a peachwood sword, calls him Qixingbu, and has words in his mouth, is too powerful, can he really kill such a powerful zombie?

Even Yi Cai, who had heard of chasing corpses since she was a child, was curious, let alone Ren Feng.

After listening to Chen Ange's brief explanation, Ren Feng's eyes widened like copper bells.

This......

The filming of Journey to the West continues, but lately it has been extremely slow, and sometimes even suspended for a day or two.

And during this period, Lin Ying, who was far away in Beiping, also brought the two of them over.

"That's what you chose?"

Before Chen Ange told Lin Ying about the role of "Mr. Zombie" this time, in addition to Uncle Jiu, he also has two naughty apprentices who are responsible for being funny, and these two apprentices must also be distinctive, one is honest, one is smart, one is a dish, and one is fine.

The two people brought by Lin Ying are tall and low, and their looks are passable, and just looking at the way they walk, they should be practicing their families.

"This is your book, remember it as soon as possible!"

Chen Ange didn't talk nonsense, and took out the three people's notebooks.

Xu Xiaofeng played the white bone spirit in "Journey to the West", and was pulled over by Chen Ange to play the female ghost Dong Xiaoyu.

"It's yours!"

"Thank you, Director An!"

Xu Xiaofeng was a little excited.

Her three dozen white bone spirits were broadcast, and she also knew that the TV series was very popular, but she also knew that it was absolutely impossible for this drama to make all the actors popular, and because it was composed of small stories, her role in the whole drama was actually not much.

Therefore, even if the drama is so popular, she can't be popular.

But this time it's different, Director An's movie.

But......

She wasn't the only one who was lucky......

"Li Caifeng, this is yours!"

"Thank you, Director An!"

Xu Xiaofeng, Li Caifeng!

A top student of the Dance Department of Peking Film and Television Academy.

And Li Caifeng is also in the TV series "Journey to the West", and she still plays a very famous role.

Chang'e!

"Program control, the main task this time will be handed over to you!"

The role of a zombie obtained by the program control.

This is very demanding of one's own kung fu ability.

There are no famous actors!

Even the fact that the program control is Monkey King did not say.

This strange crew began filming seventy miles away from Micai Town.

Peach wood sword, bell, cinnabar, ink bucket, glutinous rice, yellow fu, Luo Geng, gossip mirror!

When these bizarre folk things were brought to the set, many people were confused.

Especially Lin Ying.

He didn't know what he was going to do before he came.

In his opinion, he himself is a singer, Chen Ange takes a fancy to him, maybe the protagonist of this drama is a singer, and he can fully reveal his true feelings when the time comes.

But......

Taoist!

I'm a singer, why do I have to play a Taoist priest?

Also, how do you use these things?

Although this is acting, these folk superstitious things have withdrawn from the stage of history early, and the most important thing is, how to use these things?

Lin Ying, who has put on makeup, is nine points similar to the ninth uncle in Chen Ange's mind!

"Is the tomb ready?"

"It's all right!"

"Lin Ying, change your clothes, hurry up!"

……

"Worship with all your heart!"

"Uncle Jiu, those who watched feng shui back then said that this cemetery is difficult to find, and it is a good hole!"

"Yes, this hole is called Dragonfly Point**, the hole is three feet long and four, only four feet can be used, one zhang wide and three feet wide, only three feet can be used!

……

"Where did you get all that mess!"

"It's made, these things don't usually exist in people's homes!"

Chen Tiehua frowned slightly: "Don't you know that these things can't be talked about?

Chen Ange: "Casual nonsense!"

Chen Tiehua: ......

……

"Watch me move!"

This paragraph is the plot of Uncle Nine asking for paper, pen, ink, sword, and making talisman blood, Chen Ange just dictated, and Lin Ying never knew the essentials, so Chen Ange could only play the trick by himself.

This is the first time that Taoism has appeared in a real sense in the film, and Uncle Jiu's actions are indeed different from others.

Playing rice, going overboard, burning talismans, these actions are very simple for Chen Ange, after all, he already has that picture in his mind, so he just needs to do it.

And the actions are really impeccable, and there is no need to change them.

Chen Ange's set of actions was smooth, and the actors who were filming and watching were stunned.

After all, they just knew that Chen Ange wrote a book, but they didn't expect him to be so handsome when he made a move.

Lin Ying was also speechless, Chen Ange was so simple to do by himself, what else did he do, it was better to play by himself!
