"If you want to rely on games to export culture, you have a long way to go. Zhou Guangyue said: "The martial arts culture is better in film and television, and Qin Shi Mingyue, who does better in domestic animation, is also closer to the martial arts style." If we also adopt the martial arts style, is it more stable, or is it too conservative, should we adopt a new theme? ”

"In terms of subject matter, I think you can choose Xianxia culture, which can be compared with the magical civilization of the West. Zhao Chen said.

"Now there are a lot of domestic games that focus on Xianxia, but they are not very good. I feel that the theme of Xianxia is too extraordinary, unlike the combination of magic and historical warfare, which has a good effect. Zhou Guangyue said.

"We can also combine Xianxia with historical wars, Fengshen Bang and Journey to the West are good works, they only need to be changed slightly, and the changes are more suitable for the way of thinking of modern people. Zhao Chen said.

As one of the four famous novels, there is no doubt about its excellence, but the content is too profound for many people to understand.

To put it bluntly, the author likes to hide and tuck, and many things are not directly expressed, such as the cruelty of the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism. Don't talk about foreign readers, even Chinese rarely understand.

I believe that anyone who has watched the Journey to the West TV series knows that Tang Seng and his apprentices have beaten many monsters on the way to learn scriptures, but all those who have not been "compiled" have been killed or accepted, and those who have "compilation" have not been punished by anything.

For example, the green ox essence is the mount of Taishang Laojun, and the carp essence is the pet of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

The carp spirit accepts boys and girls in the mortal world, in our words today, it is similar to abducting and selling children, but there is nothing to do after being accepted by Guanyin. The question is, why did the carp spirit go down to the earth to accept boys and girls?

In fact, it is acting according to Guanyin's instructions.

Journey to the West is a book that nakedly describes utilitarianism, repeatedly mentioning merits, merits, and merits.

At the beginning of the story, Guanyin Bodhisattva clearly told Tang Seng: "If there is someone who is willing to go, seek the golden body of the right fruit." ”

It's not for nothing, it's profitable, and "go" is exchanged for "positive results".

Even people who have nothing to do with learning scriptures are measured by "merit".

When the Yellow Wind Monster returned, Lingji Bodhisattva said: I will take him to see Rulai, only this merit can be counted, and this credit is mine.

Once the golden horn and silver horn were returned, Lao Jun said: But you took it today and got merit.

Once in the country of black chickens, Manjushri said: Now you have come here and become a meritorious.

At the end of the story, they have all become positive fruits, how to achieve positive results? If it is only so clear: they are all positive results of "merit", Tang Seng has learned scriptures and has great merits, Sun Wukong has merit in refining demons and subduing monsters, Zhu Bajie has merit in carrying burdens, Sha Monk has merit in climbing mountains and leading horses, and Tang Seng has merit in carrying Tang Seng on a white dragon horse.

The conclusion is that it is a positive result of "merit", not a positive result of "goodness".

The author of Journey to the West has no concept of good and evil, and the characters he gives have a good side and an evil side, so it feels very contradictory, and you don't know what his position is.

Why do you feel this way?

The problem is not with the author, but with our deep-seated habitual thinking.

We have learned from watching TV since we were children: as soon as a character appears, before the performance starts, we already decide that he is a good person and that he is a bad person, otherwise we can't watch it.

With this kind of shackles of thinking, of course, you can't see the original face clearly.

The traditional code of conduct has always stayed at the moral level, always judging by good and evil, but what exactly is good and evil? What is the standard to define it? Are you clear? Who is the good guy and who is the bad guy in Journey to the West? The author is not so narrow, they are all the same.

Taking modern society as an example, who is born a good person or a bad person? Things that do not exist, such as today's shopping malls and stock markets, where everyone uses their own means to make profits, who is a good person and who is a bad person? Everyone is the same.

Journey to the West is a book that describes how to succeed, exploring the law of success, there are no good people and bad people, only winners and losers, and the preaching and indoctrination "persuasion" is smashed!

Therefore, when reading Journey to the West, don't care what he satirizes or reveals, these are meaningless to us, and only successful experiences have reference value.

What is success? In the simplest and most straightforward words, it is to achieve what you need.

But now we have to use such noble language as success as a belief, success as a realm, and success as a transcendence, which will only create barriers to understanding.

"In addition to what you said, I think the most important thing is to grasp the main points, such as World of Warcraft, which shows resistance and freedom the most, what does Xianxia culture want to express? Hang Yu said.

"The idea of Xianxia culture seems to be cultivation, detachment, and more complete than the freedom of the West. Let's combine it and reinterpret the idea of freedom, and maybe it will have unexpected effects. Zhao Chen said.

"It's a bit similar, but what you said about detachment is misunderstood, in fact, the cultivation in Xianxia has always been the struggle of Chiguoguo, and detachment is just to continuously improve your status and climb to everyone's head. Who has freedom? The people at the bottom do not have it, only the strongest people have real freedom. The stronger the person, the higher the degree of freedom. Hang Yu said.

"Hearing you say that, it seems that I have to re-understand the Xianxia civilization. Zhao Chen was inspired.

"I suggest that you carefully analyze the book Journey to the West, and you will find a lot of good things and good ideas that can be borrowed from the creation of games. Hang Yu said.

There is also a very interesting phenomenon in Journey to the West, that is, after the monsters caught Tang Seng, they could eat it in one bite, but they didn't eat it, and many viewers only watched the TV series, thinking it was needed by the plot.

In fact, this is not the case, Journey to the West can be rated as one of the four masterpieces, how can there be such a "brainless" plot.

A careful analysis of the original work will find that it is not the monster grinding, but because the Tang monk pays attention to the method.

Eating it straight has no effect.

"This thing is not as good as that foolish man, and it can be used as a meal when it is taken, which is a rare thing in Shangbang. This sentence was said by Dapeng, which shows that he is knowledgeable! He knows very well that Tang monk meat is a rare resource! A rumor deceived the little demon and said that he went to the past, deceived him? No way!

"Don't scare Tang Seng, Tang Seng can't be intimidated, and if you are scared, you won't eat the sour. "Dapeng not only knows that eating Tang monk meat can prolong life, but also knows under what circumstances Tang monk meat will fail!

"You have to wait for the cloudy day to be leisure," Dapeng still knows the specific way to eat, and he must wait until the cloudy day to eat!

When eating, it must be in a happy mood and relaxed in your leisure time, without any external disturbances!

Who is Dapeng, it is Rulai's uncle.
