"Really?"

Xu Wenhui's face is strange, the island country's version of "Journey to the West"?

That woman plays Tang Seng's Journey to the West?

Xu Wenhui has really seen this Journey to the West, and its adaptation of the novel "Journey to the West" is a mixture of various new elements, and it was well received in island countries, the sun never sets, Australia and other countries at that time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, the Chinese version of the 78th version of the island country's "Journey to the West" was stopped after only three episodes on CCTV, because it was too far from the original "Journey to the West", which was unanimously opposed by the mainland officials and people!

Because of this, the mainland is determined to shoot a truly own "Journey to the West" masterpiece, which contributed to the birth of the later 86 version of Journey to the West!

In fact, in the island country, the movie about "Journey to the West" was filmed much earlier than the TV series.

The first "Journey to the West" movie was "Monkey King" produced by Toho Co., Ltd. and directed by Kajiro Yamamoto when it was 40 years old. This movie is composed of two parts, the first part can be regarded as a movie in the strict sense, because the characters on the stage are singing and acting....It can be understood as the opera version of "Journey to the West".

As a big country of animation, in addition to TV series and movies, there are quite a few comics and animated movies related to "Journey to the West".

The world's first "Journey to the West" animation, which was also produced by an island country seventeen years ago, was directed by Taiji Yashita and Daisaku Shirakawa, and Sun Wukong fell in love with a beautiful female monkey in the film!

Akina Nakamori didn't expect that Xu Wenhui would actually name the protagonist of his next important comic as Sun Wukong.

However, Akina Nakamori thinks that this is the right choice, the famous "God of Manga" Osamu Tezuka also wrote "My Monkey King", the author of "Doraemon", Fujiko Fujio Fujio also collaborated with Akatsuka Fujio and wrote the book "ギャハハ西聊記".

Therefore, there is definitely a market for drawing comics of "Journey to the West" in the island country!

Xu Wenhui asked: "I'm curious, why did you find a woman to play Tang Seng?"

Because in the hearts of our people, Tang Sanzang is not only a typical handsome young man, but also has a gentle and elegant personality, which is very different from the masculinity and martial arts advocated by men in island countries. If an actor plays Tang Sanzang, it is incompatible with the traditional image of the Tang Dynasty holy monk in the hearts of the island people. That's why I found Masako Natsume. Akina Nakamori explained, snapping her little finger.

In fact, it is similar to what Akina Nakamori said, although it is not popular in China, but the Tang Seng played by Masako Natsume is quite successful overseas, which is very in line with the appetite of the audience in the island country, so that later in the hearts of the island people, Masako Natsume is Tang Seng!

After that, the movies shot by the island country also used actresses to play Tang Seng.

Xu Wenhui nodded, he only watched three episodes of this TV series, and if he has the opportunity, he really has to watch the full version, according to Akina Nakamori, the total investment of the film is 1 billion yen, which is equivalent to 34 billion yen at the beginning of the 21st century, and it can be regarded as a big production in the 21st century!

The visual effects were produced by the Ultraman director team at the time, and it may look a little nostalgic for Ultraman.

"Then again. Boss, why did you name him Monkey King? Although the name Monkey King is indeed very famous, the more this happens, the more pressure you may have if you borrow his name again. ”

Although Akina Nakamori is young, it doesn't mean that she doesn't know anything, she just hasn't been deeply involved in the world.

Zhuyu is in front, and the pressure on Xu Wenhui's own creation in the back is too great.

"Don't worry, Akina, I know what I'm doing. Xu Wenhui smiled, he looked at Akina Nakamori, who was worried about him, and said with a smile, "As long as the comic itself is good enough, coupled with the fame of the masterpiece itself, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort." ”

"As my company's first product, of course, it has to be amazing to have the possibility of becoming an instant hit. ”

"But ......"

Akina Nakamori looked at Xu Wenhui with a confident face, and she was still a little worried.

"No, my Dragon Ball is the Journey to the West in the comic world. ”

Xu Wenhui said confidently, he understood what Akina Nakamori was worried about.

If it were another comic, Xu Wenhui might be worried, but this one is different, this is "Dragon Ball"!

Before Xu Wenhui's arrival in Xiangjiang, Dragon Ball, known as the first comic in the history of the island country!

First, there is wood?

It combines the legend of Dragon Ball in ancient China and "Journey to the West", telling the story of a person who has been pursuing martial arts, in order to surpass his own limits, pursue power, and embark on the grand adventure of collecting Dragon Balls.

"Dragon Ball" is 84 years, that is, not far apart, seven years later, the work began to be serialized in the "Shonen JUMP Weekly", a total of 42 volumes, the total sales of a single book reached 230 million, and it is also said that 350 million, in short, the results can be said to be quite proud!

It has achieved countless achievements, whether it is sales, peripherals, or influence, only "One Piece" can match one or two.

If you only talk about the average sales of a single book, "One Piece" is not its opponent.

Because "One Piece" has released a total of 74 single volumes, it is completely dependent on the number of single books issued to overtake "Dragon Ball"!

The synopsis of the early days of "Dragon Ball" is like this, the young Son Goku, who lives alone in the mountains, meets Boomer, a young scientist who collects Dragon Balls, and Boomer takes Goku on a journey to find Dragon Balls in order to get the four-star Dragon Balls owned by Goku. During this period, he defeated the bad guys who did evil many times, and met friends such as Shenlong, Leping, Turtle Immortal, Bull Demon King and his daughter Kiki, etc., to collect seven dragon balls, which is the first exploration. And there are also martial arts conference chapters, great demon king chapters, Saiyan chapters and so on.

To sum up, its early stage is a hilarious treasure hunt comic, which can be seen from the beginning when Little Goku and Bulma all seek to find Dragon Balls.

In the later period, with the popularity of "Fist of the North Dipper" in the island country, the fighting situation was very good, and in a hurry, in order to meet the expectations of fans, Akira Toriyama had to keep letting Little Wukong fight, so Wukong stepped on the peak.

It has become a popular masterpiece.

After introducing the concept of Saiyans, it evolved into a super fierce battle of space warrior combat.

As a result, the influence of Dragon Ball reached a peak.

Xu Wenhui feels that Akira Toriyama, an old bird, can be said to be one of the best cartoonists in the island country, especially in the super fierce battle in the back, he has greatly expanded the content of hot-blooded fighting comics!

Old Bird's talent in depicting fights is absolutely unmatched, and his sense of picture, rhythm and control of the fight is very good.

Let Xu Wenhui know that the original comics of bloody fighting can still be drawn like this, and both "One Piece" and "Naruto" have been greatly influenced by him.

Even decades have passed since the end of Dragon Ball, and when it comes to depictions of fights, there is still no one else who can match it.

It is with these advantages in mind that Xu Wenhui chose it as his first work.

"But before I paint, I'm going to make some changes......"
