Chapter 405 The Monkey and the Monkey (2-in-1 6,000-word big chapter~One chapter today~)

The name of the second TV series invested and filmed by Gongshan Studio has caused countless reveries - "Journey to the West". Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After Shengshi announced the filming plan of "Journey to the West", Gongshan Studio made a "Journey to the West", if you want to say that there is no story in it, no one will believe it.

In fact, Gongshan Studio suffered a little loss, and their script came out earlier, just because the actors were not found well, they kept holding back and did not develop the conference. It's like a prosperous age, before the script is finished, he announced that he was going to shoot with great fanfare, and even the director was found, and he also found a well-known film director, Jiang Xia is also familiar with him, the director named Han Yu once choked Jiang Xia on the meager face.

The start-up press conference of Gongshan Studio was held earlier than Shengshi, and just after the Chinese New Year, it was announced that it would start shooting. Shengshi still has to wait for two days, and they will not start filming until New Year's Day passes.

It was also at the press conference that the main actors of the TV series appeared, and none other than the actors of the quartet attracted much attention.

When the script is not exposed, everyone is guessing what story this is going to tell, but everyone believes that no matter what the story is, the protagonist must also be a foursome. The reporters privately speculated that they should still travel along the west, and the protagonists were still a foursome.

It's just the direction and main line of the story, they can't guess it, many people guess the direction based on the online novels, what did they do after Journey to the West?

But they didn't have to guess, the Torrent Stream novel has not yet appeared, and there are really not many places where monkeys can be used. Most of them come out in some traditional immortal cultivators, and they don't appear as frequently as in the torrent.

The reporters all noticed that the screenwriter was Jiang Xia, and they admired Jiang Xia's ability to tell stories. Not to mention the online sales of the four fires, let's talk about a few martial arts novels, each of which has a huge impact. Not to mention the Condor Trilogy, the East is undefeated, and the Sunflower Book is popular among primary school students. Not long ago, the newly released "Dragon Babu", Jiang Xia's storytelling ability has reached a higher level.

After arriving at the scene, I found that among the stills of the main actors, there were Tang Seng, Dasheng, Bajie, Sha Seng, Little White Dragon, and then Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia's stills did not take the classic shape of Wutian, but took the shape of a monk and hung a name of Wutian, and the reporters all saw Jiang Xia's identity, but they didn't know who Wutian was. I also don't know about White Lotus, Biyou, and Ling'er.

Nine stills were released for the main characters, and five people came to the scene, plus a few leader-level figures. After all, CCTV and other TV stations have investment, so just stand up and say a few words.

No one in the reporters was willing to pay attention to them, and they didn't say much, and finally handed the microphone to You Fangfei.

You Fangfei is the host of this press conference, and her main task is to answer all kinds of questions raised by reporters.

"Let's just start asking questions, everyone is very busy. As soon as You Fangfei spoke, she was applauded by the reporters, who liked this kind of session, asking questions to ask things.

A large number of reporters raised their hands, and You Fangfei randomly ordered a male reporter.

He stood up and introduced himself, and then asked, "What story does the postquel to Journey to the West tell about?"

It mainly tells the story of the turmoil in the Three Realms after the Tang monks and apprentices came back from learning the scriptures, and then worked together to save the Three Realms. You Fangfei didn't say anything specific, but gave a general framework.

Another female reporter stood up and asked, "What is the reason why you chose Liu Jianfei to play the Monkey King?"

That's right, this time the actor, when choosing the actor of Sun Wukong, Jiang Xia thought about it for a long time, and finally chose Liu Jianfei. For more than a year, when he was growing his body again, his height was much taller than a year and a half ago, and after putting on makeup, he definitely couldn't see that he was half a big boy.

There are two reasons for choosing Liu Jianfei, one is that Liu Jianfei really has kung fu, playing the Monkey King, and he can't fight. The second is that Jiang Xia checked the celebrity list, and there was really nothing suitable, but he was more familiar with Liu Jianfei, and if he couldn't find a suitable one, he picked Liu Jianfei.

Liu Jianfei answered this question, he said: "Director Jiang thinks I'm suitable, right? Director Jiang contacted me at the time and asked me if I could play Sun Dasheng, Sun Wukong was my idol when I was a child, and it has always been my dream to play Sun Wukong." After agreeing to Director Jiang, I spent two months to consult Teacher Kong, and it took another two months to understand the script. ”

Liu Jianfei has obviously grown a lot in more than a year, he was still a child before, but now he is a little more mature. The answer to these words was so seamless that even the reporter's possible questioning was blocked.

The reporter applauded Liu Jianfei's remarks.

It seems that Liu Jianfei is very well prepared, in fact, he also did this, the teacher he said is Kong Huaidi, the actor of the most classic "Journey to the West" Monkey King in the 80s, and his status is similar to that of the six-year-old child Zhang Jinlai in his previous life. The difference is that Liu Xiaolingtong is a monkey opera family, and Kong Huaidi only changed his career to act in a monkey show on the stage after playing Sun Wukong, and he has not appeared on the screen in recent years.

After Jiang Xia called him, he decided to play Sun Wukong, he went to Kong Huaidi during the holidays to learn his understanding of monkey opera, he studied very seriously, Sun Wukong is the idol of every young man, in order not to fall into the image of Sun Wukong, he has worked really hard in the past six months.

After asking Liu Jianfei, everyone turned their attention to Shang Haowen, the actor of Tang Seng. Shang Haowen belongs to the kind of handsome guy who is white and clean, and the actor of Tang Seng must not be ugly, which is recognized. But everyone pays attention to him, and they pay attention to his title, the national martial arts champion.

As an actor ranked fifth on the celebrity list, playing such an important role as Tang Seng, everyone is not curious, everyone is curious that he is definitely better than Liu Jian.

Tang Seng can fight better than Sun Wukong, what do you want to do in Jiangxia?

If Jiang Xia told them that in the whole play, Tang Seng was really capable of fighting, I don't know if the reporter would go crazy. is like a news that Jiang Xia saw in his previous life, in the remake of "Journey to the West", Tang Seng is played by Wu Jing, and the three apprentices are played by some small fresh meat.

Countless jokes have been given on the Internet, such as lying down and learning eighty-one difficult copies, first and fourth, and speed plus. For another example, in view of the high force value of Tang Seng, the Bodhisattva specially arranged three apprentices to drag him back. There are also some dialogue-type jokes, and netizens are very happy.

Shang Haowen, who asked the next question from the reporters: "Jiang Xia asked you to play Tang Seng, is it that in this drama, Tang Seng will change his image?"

Although Shang Haowen is not famous, he has been in the entertainment industry for many years, and he is over 30 years old, but he has never had the opportunity to play the leading role. Jiang Xia chose him to play Tang Seng and called him, he himself was surprised for a long time, and he was very surprised that Jiang Xia was looking for him, his acting skills were average, could he play Tang Seng?

But in the end, he still took the play, Jiang Xia showed him the script, and met with him in person, and told him about it before he agreed. Tang Seng in this play really doesn't have high requirements for acting skills, but needs to be cool and handsome.

Play cool and handsome, he's fine, that's enough. And there are a lot of action scenes in the play, which he is even better at.

Hearing the reporter's question, Shang Haowen replied with a smile: "It's not easy to answer." Director Jiang asked me to play Tang Seng, probably because I looked at my appearance. The image of Tang Seng, looking at this poster, I should also be this image in the play. ”

He did Tai Chi directly and did not answer the question directly.

However, reporters are also human spirits, and Shang Haowen does not answer, which is the best answer.

In addition to these two people, Gong Shan was also at the scene, and there was also the actor of Bajie, Jiang Xia was also funny, the actor of Bajie was a third-tier star, more famous than Tang Seng and Sun Wukong.

The actor of Bajie is called Wu Zongkai, who is a particularly fat actor, how can he play Bajie, how can he be fat?

"Mr. Wu, I heard that the upcoming Journey to the West crew also invited you to star in Zhu Bajie, why did you choose the sequel of Journey to the West instead of Journey to the West?" a reporter asked directly.

Wu Zongkai is a special actor, close to forty years old, and has been playing supporting roles, relying on many roles, he has become a third-tier star. It can be regarded as a model of special supporting roles in the entertainment industry.

Knocking on the microphone, Wu Zongkai said: "I am very grateful to the Journey to the West crew for inviting me, but the crew of the sequel to Journey to the West found me first, I have read the script, and it is also very sincere and challenging, so this next play." Later, when the Journey to the West crew came to me, I didn't go to the Journey to the West crew because of time conflicts. ”

Wu Zongkai's answer was different from Shang Haowen's, his answer just described his thoughts, nothing more. As for whether the reporter will concoct some thriller news, then he doesn't care. This is also his character, what the reporter asks, he will answer one by one, and he is fat, giving everyone the impression that he is very honest.

Jiang Xia found him because he had seen his performance, and his appearance was really suitable for the role of Zhu Bajie. So Jiang Xia sent out an invitation, and the Zhu Bajie in the play is not the same as the traditional Zhu Bajie.

The characters in the entire "Journey to the West" are different from the traditional characters, and this novelty is the reason why Wu Zongkai agreed to join.

The super capable Tang Seng, the super immature Sun Wukong, and the normal Zhu Bajie, and then the reporter's eyes were aimed at Gong Shan.

Among the four leading actors on the scene, she is the only woman, and she is still playing a brand new role, called White Lotus, what is this person doing?

"Sister Shan, what kind of role does the White Lotus you play in the play?" a reporter raised his hand and asked.

Gong Shan had already guessed that they would ask this question, and said with a smile: "Heroine, it must be the heroine." As for who you guess I am in love with, do you guess? haha~ Just kidding, Jiang Xia told me in advance, I can tell you in advance that the role I play is to have a love affair with Ling'er. ”

"So Ling'er, is he the hero of this drama?" a reporter immediately asked.

You Fangfei replied: "There is no male protagonist in the traditional sense of this play, just the number of scenes, of course, if you really want to talk about the male protagonist, Ling'er is the male protagonist." ”

The reporters recorded one after another, looked at the actor of Ling'er, Gongshan Studio is also the next book, and the second-tier star Xiang Ying came to play Ling'er, I am afraid it cost a lot of money. Reporters have speculated before that Ling'er asked Xiang Ying to act, and it is impossible for a second-tier star to play a supporting role, even if it is a supporting role, there must be a very heavy role.

"May I ask what role is Jiang Xia's role in the play?" A reporter finally cared about Jiang Xia.

You Fangfei replied: "He is the villain, the villain, in game terms, the final boss." ”

The reporters were surprised, looked at Jiang Xia's monk style, and it seemed that they couldn't imagine that such a handsome monk would be a big villain? In their feelings, Jiang Xia's monk style was more suitable for Tang Seng than Shang Haowen. After all, Shang Haowen was born in martial arts, and he unconsciously had a bit of a fierce temperament, while Jiang Xia was a little more gentle and elegant, which was more in line with the image of Tang Seng in everyone's minds.

Gong Shan also asked Jiang Xia this question, but the reason Jiang Xia gave was that he preferred to play the villain, purely willingly. It's hard to buy a daughter, I'm willing, Jiang Xia wants to play Wutian, but she can't help it, even if she wants Jiang Xia to play Ling'er, he is not happy.

The reporters are still asking: "Today is the launch conference, why are there only four leading actors?"

You Fangfei replied: "During the Chinese New Year, everyone is very busy, and we really started filming after New Year's Day, and today is just a press conference, I hope you understand." ”

Regarding You Fangfei's statement, the reporters can only understand, after all, everyone has already come, and there are only four people, and they can't do anything.

So, the questions focused on Gongshan and them, and more than a dozen questions were asked, and the press conference was over.

It was also at the end of the press conference that these reporters learned that when they came to attend the press conference, Jiang Xia released another single.

The General's Order was released at twelve o'clock, shortly before the end of their press conference.

They are already a little accustomed to Jiang Xia, this is a person who doesn't like the media, doesn't meet with the media, and hides himself behind the thick curtain. didn't even come to such an important press conference, and ran to release a single, which is not a serious business, and it is also a little nervous.

However, Jiang Xia's song did cause some impact, mainly his fans, just this song, it was a big deal.

"Jiangxia's song is okay. ”

"Learn in your world that you speak abcd, in my land, I'm sorry please speak Mandarin. This sentence is really handsome and fried. ”

"Kudo, blah, blah. ”

"Jiang Xia's songs, the style has changed a bit a bit recently, but I like it, I like such a variety of singers. ”

"I still like the Korean Wave, but this song is also good. ”

That singing voice is handsome. ”

"In my land, please speak Mandarin. ”

"I don't know if you can hear it, this song is actually Jiang Xia talking about himself and shouting his own voice. He knows what's right and what's wrong, and everybody says he's wrong, but to him, he's not wrong. In fact, if we think about it, many things in Jiangxia are too real, which is incompatible with this entertainment industry. Don't talk far, just say that this time he hit someone, that woman is not too much, will he beat a woman?"

"It's a rebellious song. ”

"It's very powerful, the moon in foreign countries is not relatively round, and some time ago, he said that what he wanted to say was in the Korean Wave, in fact, it should be in this song. ”

"What Jiang Xia wants to say is to ask everyone to be quiet, there are too many accusations against him. ”

"Jiang Xia's three recent singles are all cool songs, but they all make sense. ”

"The general ordered this song, the single is in the loop. ”

"The Korean Wave is coming a little too hard, and the general's order is good. ”

"Jiang Xia is right, everyone be quiet, each of us can tell right from wrong. ”

"In terms of scolding sticks, I'm on Jiang Xia's side. ”

"This is our land, and there should only be one voice, and that is our most beautiful Chinese language. ”

"**** needs a patriot like Jiang Xia. ”

……

is just such a song, which has given Jiang Xia a lot of goodwill.

The lyrics are very powerful, it is what many people want to say, the trend of thinking of admiring foreign countries has been since the reform and opening up, especially after English has become the main subject of education, it seems that many people yearn for a better life outside China, and the trend of foreign and foreign ideas is serious.

First-class foreigners, second-class officials, third-class young people, fourth-class Han. This kind of slip of the tongue has also become popular, and some officials have even opened foreign hukou with their entire families, and the family members who manage the country are all foreigners, and even they themselves are foreigners, how ironic is this?

Such an incident has been exposed, and "Nonsense" has also been satirized, and now Jiangxia's "General's Order", an absolutely patriotic song, has come out, and there are many meanings in it, including what he wants to say, and what netizens can hear.

Anyway, at this point in time after the year, Jiangxia's "General's Order" became popular.

Young people like this song very much, the music is cool enough, the lyrics are cool enough, and it is easier to inspire national pride than the slow and leisurely main theme song of the Spring Festival Gala.

Jiang Xia's song overpowered the song of the Spring Festival Gala, and it occupied the first place on the new song list with great vigor. And the advantage is still expanding infinitely, continuing to rise.

The song "General Order", which was popular for a while in Jiangxia's previous life, is one of Wu Kequn's most well-known songs.

It took Jiang Xia and Zhang Pengpeng a week to slowly come up with the songs, which are purely the strength of the two of them, and they can have their current results, and they are not happy.

What made Jiang Xia even happier was that a group of netizens went to some foreign stars to swipe the screen under the meager level, and what they swiped was Jiang Xia's sentence - "In my land, please speak Chinese." ”

Even if foreigners open a meager hair, they still send it in the language of their respective countries. Originally, everyone didn't think anything was wrong, but as soon as Jiang Xia's "General's Order" came out, everyone suddenly found a counterattack point, and they went to swipe the screen to say that you should speak Chinese in the future, you are meager in China.

A bunch of foreign celebrities are going crazy, and they want to ask, what the hell, what's going on, why do you have to speak Mandarin?

After knowing that it was Jiang Xia's "General Order", they really wanted to type four Chinese characters, damn retarded!

Jiang Xia didn't expect these netizens to be so interesting, but he was happy, and then turned around on the twelfth day of the first month and scolded the people of Shengshi: "Mad's retardation!"

Because on this day, Shengshi held a press conference for the launch of the new drama, and at the same time, like Gongshan Studio, exposed the main actors.

After the main actors of "Journey to the West" were exposed, the reports of media reporters were decent. Although there are also complaints that Tang Seng can fight better than Wukong, he didn't dare to say anything, after all, it was Jiang Xia who wrote the story, and he was the director and screenwriter. A screenwriter who is an online novel author, no one dares to say how big his brain can be.

The next day, the newspapers were all "Liu Jianfei cooperates with Gong Shan again!", "Journey to the West's postquel starring lineup!", "Xiang Ying joins Journey to the West!", etc., the reports that complained a little were all on the Internet, mainly focusing on Shang Haowen, let an action star with poor acting skills play Tang Seng, and I don't know what Jiang Xia thinks.

Generally speaking, the starring lineup on Jiangxia's side is relatively normal, but when it comes to the lineup on the Shengshi side, it is incomprehensible, or too thorough, and then there is a voice of doubt.

Everyone knows the story of Journey to the West, and there are only five people in the leading role, with a foursome plus Guanyin Bodhisattva. But just such a five-person actor made Sheng Shi play flowers.

The first is Sun Wukong, this candidate, no one expected, the second-tier top Ding Yiyi. When Jiang Xia saw Ding Yiyi's name, he wanted to call Ding Yiyi and return the money, why did he play this thing.

Ding Yiyi is the most normal one in the five-person group.

Tang Seng is Li Chenghao, a stick artist who has choked Jiang Xia on a meager basis.

Zhu Bajie, treasure island artist Fan Mingyu.

Sha Wujing, Xiangjiang artist Li Yangcheng.

Guanyin Bodhisattva, Singaporean artist Ho Xinyi.

As soon as the five-person group appeared, the reporter was stunned on the spot, Jiang Xia didn't know, but when Jiang Xia saw these five people on the news, he was really a little confused.

He wanted to run to Shengshi and pull Ye Yu's ears and ask him, what do you want? Such a five-person group went to shoot Journey to the West, what the hell are you meowing to me?

Not to mention the counterpoint of other roles, just the role of the monkey, Liu Jianfei is also from martial arts training, there is no problem with his skills, and the action scenes must be provoked. You Ding Yi can't tie a horse step for five minutes, you go to play the Monkey King, you turn a somersault cloud to try, you can't be tired to death.

The most pleasing thing about Journey to the West is the monkey, you are now a monkey who can't fight, how can you compete with a monkey who learns martial arts......

Many people can't understand the star lineup of the prosperous era, this is simply a multinational force, what kind of drama can be filmed in this way? What's more, except for Ding Yiyi, the five people are considered to be powerful, and the other idols are almost all dependent on their faces.

If the five of them are filming an idol drama, even if it is a costume drama, Jiang Xia dares to say that the ratings are absolutely guaranteed. Sometimes, Jiang Xia also has to admit that idols can guarantee ratings in many cases, they are a symbol of popularity, even if they are not ranked very high in the celebrity list, they also have a foundation of popularity.

Do you want to make a "Journey to the West"?

These five people, two directly have no face, and two ruin the image, and only one Guanyin Bodhisattva can guarantee the image.

has no acting skills, ruined the image, Sheng Shi used such an idol lineup to shoot "Journey to the West", there was a lot of pressure, isn't this going to be gg? surrender in advance? Or break the jar?

Sheng Shi estimated that he thought very well, and the filmed "Journey to the West" is estimated to be scolded, and if he is scolded badly, the ratings cannot be guaranteed, so just find a few idols to earn popularity, and ensure that there is no loss. (To be continued.) )
