Chapter 1220: The Monster Protagonist Again?
Su Huai's unhesitating statement was beyond everyone's expectations.
Chairman Fan, Director Ouyang, and everyone in the Yanhuang Cultural Circle present all turned their heads to look at Su Huai, and every face was surprised.
The other party asked Su Huai to break the world ratings record, but Su Shengren agreed without even thinking about it?
You must know that the current TV series ratings record is the 570 million shocking viewership created by "Friends" in the finale this year, which is a popular sitcom that has swept the world, accumulated ten years of popularity, and finally reached an unprecedented record!
Although the promotion of "Journey to the West" of manned spaceflight this time is very good, it is not comparable to the craze of "Da Song Ti Criminal Officer" because Su Shengren was imprisoned before.
At that time, "The Criminal Officer of the Great Song Dynasty" was a hot topic that almost everyone was keen on, and the two detective masters, Edogawa and Doyle, participated in the discussion of the case, making this plot full of ancient Chinese forensic wisdom break through 500 million viewers in one fell swoop!
But even if "The Criminal Officer of the Great Song Dynasty" has so many advantages, stories, dramas, and characters are so good, and "Clearing Grievances" is regarded as a classic by many national forensic schools, it is still 70 million short of the record of "Friends......
And from the perspective of production specifications, "Da Song Ti Criminal Officer" is still a famous TV superstar in the world's seventh studio, co-starring.
This time, "Journey to the West" is all newcomers who are not well-known, where does Su Shengren get his confidence?
At this time, everyone in the European and American Federation of Literary and Art Circles, who should have been ecstatic, was also full of confusion.
Did Su Huai accept this condition?
Kirk was very surprised, in his original plan, Su Huai would definitely refuse this request, and then set a more feasible standard to bargain with him.
But Su Huai agreed so quickly, which made him uneasy.
He hurriedly glanced at Tolkien next to him, and after Tolkien understood, he hurriedly coughed dryly and said:
"Chairman Ke, I don't think it's appropriate for you to ask for this, you must know that the project that the Huaxia Federation of Literary and Art Circles received before is to promote the development of the Buddhist cultural industry, if this "Journey to the West" has nothing to do with Buddhist culture, then this doesn't mean anything at all~"
The name of "Journey to the West" and the protagonist Wukong have resounded all over the world with the success of the manned space project, but in fact, no one knows what this "Journey to the West" is about, and there is no news about this series in the outside world.
When the crew was filming, they did a great job of keeping it secret, so much so that so far, most people don't know anything about the series.
At this time, Su Huai looked at Zen Master Huizhi, who took a deep breath, stood up, took the prepared CD, asked the staff to put it into the computer, and then motioned to open the big screen in the Congress Hall.
"Leaders, let me introduce this "Journey to the West", in fact, this story tells the story of Xuanzang, a high-ranking monk in the Tang Dynasty of China, who went to ancient India to learn scriptures in order to explore the differences in the doctrines of various schools of Buddhism.
In the first year of Zhenguan, he traveled 50,000 miles westward, traveled through 110 countries, and went through hardships to reach Nalanda Monastery, the center of Indian Buddhism, to obtain the true scriptures.
In the 17 years before and after, he studied all the great and small theravada doctrines of the time, and brought back a total of 150 Buddha relics, 7 Buddha statues, and 657 sutras and ......."
Everyone thought it was very strange to hear it, this "Journey to the West" turned out to be really a Buddhist story!?
Listen to this meaning, this Xuanzang is still a historical figure?
But at this moment, Ulla, the chairman of the Indian Federation of Literary and Art Circles, was unhappy and ridiculed:
"This is impossible, isn't it? In ancient times, how could anyone walk from China to India? Could it be that he really has immortal laws? You Chinese people can't make up history when you make Buddhist propaganda dramas, right? Why haven't we in India, as the country where Buddhism was invented, ever recorded this incident?"
Since Su Huai's revival of Buddhism, the whole world has recognized that the essence of Buddhism has been passed down in China, which makes India, which has always shouted that it is the country where Buddhism was invented, very unhappy.
At this time, he saw the living Arhat stand up and said:
"Amitabha, Chairman Wu is wrong in what he said.
First, the Dharma was created by the World-Honored Buddha Shakyamuni, and the Buddha is a Nepalese today, not a modern Indian.
Secondly, I didn't believe it when I heard about it for the first time, but Mr. Su has re-restored the Buddhist works such as "The Great Prajna Sutra", "The Profound Secret Sutra", and "The Treatise on the Land of the Yogi", all of which are Chinese translations and pronunciations of ancient Indian, all of which prove the existence of Xuanzang Zen Master......"
As he spoke, the living arhat looked at Ula indifferently:
"If Chairman Uzbekistan doesn't believe me, you can send you Indian monks to discuss the Dharma with me, and if you can find out that there is half a lie in my words, I can return to the lay and withdraw from Buddhism. β
Ula listened to the fat on his face and suddenly trembled, although this Su Huai is known as the "reincarnated living Buddha" in the outside world, but outsiders seem to think that this is a false rumor, but the living Arhat is well-known in the Buddhist world, and he is recognized as the first person in Buddhism, he said that Xuanzang exists, so no one can refute it.
Tolkien was also embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Then what is the specific plot of this "Journey to the West"? Is it a simple story of Xuanzang learning scriptures?"
It sounds like Xuanzang's story is more like a documentary than a popular drama.
A monk is the protagonist, and he declares Buddhism, which means that there is no love plot, and learning scriptures is not collecting demons, where is the selling point of this series?
In the confusion of the people, Zen Master Hui Zhi explained:
"In fact, this "Journey to the West" is not based on Tang Seng as the protagonist, but with a demon monkey named Sun Wukong as the protagonist, the whole story is described from his perspective, it is a practice process of surrendering the demons to become a Buddha, mainly conveying the great wisdom of Buddhism to educate sentient beings~~"
What do you mean?
Demon Monkey!?
Is the protagonist a demon monkey?
This news made everyone present look at each other, which is really strange, Su Huai is so confident in the series, the protagonist is actually a demon monkey, and they all think that 'Wukong' is the name of Xuanzang's common family.
Zen Master Huizhi continued: "Well, in addition to Sun Wukong, in fact, the protagonist's character also has a pig demon, that is, Tang Seng's apprentice Zhu Bajie. β
Everyone couldn't help but muttered in private.
"What is this "Journey to the West", is it clearly the animal world?"
"I'm afraid this kind of theme drama is for children, right?"
"It's okay to shoot children's themes, but I'm afraid it's difficult for adult audiences to accept. β
Kirk, Cherzinger and the others all thought to themselves, you people are really naΓ―ve...... What kind of demon monkey is not a demon monkey, it is not the same as "The Legend of the New White Lady", usually dressed in human form.
Zhao Yazhi's Bai Suzhen has been praised as a classic in the TV industry.
Under the setting of "White Snake Spirit", she is actually a fairy as beautiful as a fairy, who would not like such a character?
This so-called monkey demon must also be a super beautiful man......
