Chapter 494: Masterpieces? No, great masterpieces!
Blue Star.
The whole network.
As time passed, the wave of "Journey to the West" among the whole people did not subside, but became more and more crazy.
In less than a month, global sales have exceeded 100 million.
At this time, many people had to admit that this work in the West Building can be called the number one bestseller in the fantasy category.
Especially the likes of teenagers, let industry insiders see the huge IP value of "Journey to the West" in the future!
Because even a fool can see that it's too easy to adapt.
Anime.
So deep that they don't even know it?
Things have not been easier.
Literary?
It was enough for a long time, and when its first part was released, the literary nature was vividly reflected.
A North American netizen: "Maybe the "Journey to the West" we see now is just its surface, and we haven't found its deeper meaning?" β
Several levels of differentiation.
And now, the follow-up IP value of "Journey to the West" written by Xilou is immeasurable.
[On the Research and Interpretation of Buddhist and Zen Thought in "Journey to the West"]
One of the must-read books for teenagers outside of class?
Is this "Journey to the West" really so awesome?
Is this still what they think is cool?
How is it so profound?
For example, the waiting of the Monkey King at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain, the symbolism of the Tang monk riding the white dragon horse, etc., these metaphors and symbols constitute a huge philosophical system that makes people think deeply.
In the previous life, the box office of "Nezha's Demon Boy Descending" was almost 5 billion!
As for other movies related to "Journey to the West", there are hundreds of them!
This association, which has a deep enough relationship with the West Building, announced on its official website: [After research, the Children's Literature Association will officially include "Journey to the West" in the category of children's literature. γ
The literature lover said: "At the end, Sun Wukong achieved a positive result and became a fighting holy Buddha, don't you have the slightest doubt about this?" At the beginning, the unruly Monkey King who dared to fight against the heavenly court alone, and even dared to fight against Tang Seng when he was constrained by the mantra, how could he finally become a taciturn fighting Buddha all of a sudden? This is the first doubt.
Born Adapted Eucharist!
Countless people and business people are so envious that their eyes are red, is this person in the West Building a monster?
Thinking about the original ten fairy tale works, today's peripheral IP has already blossomed all over the world, and its IP value has reached more than billions of Chinese dollars.
When you see this passage.
Amazing reviews, one after another.
Especially what makes everyone sluggish.
Some people sighed.
At least, it's not like other fantasies, it's not pure coolness.
Is that okay?
Xilou actually relied on a fantasy long story to achieve a height that many great writers can't do?
Then some things can't be avoided.
Cartoon.
There is even a writer's analysis: "Where is there any Journey to the West?" It's just a person's mental journey. The whole story of Journey to the West, in fact, is a process of life, after experiencing various hardships and obstacles, overcoming psychological and behavioral obstacles, you can get the true meaning of life.
The entire literary world was dumbfounded.
"The three major literary associations spoke out at the same time, and the status of "Journey to the West" was gone."
Before the crowd could recover from the shock.
Seeing these remarks, fans of "Journey to the West" almost selectively ignored them.
Some people even sighed: "I think "Journey to the West" is not only a famous book, but also not an ordinary masterpiece. If you look at the previous masterpieces, where can they be recognized by all ages? β
But even so, only a few people analyze the social and practical significance of "The Pavilion".
"The more I think about it, the more my scalp tingles."
This also makes the academic nature of "Journey to the West" almost improving in the world.
And the game, how much did a "Fantasy Journey to the West" cost in Huaxia?
Countless!
A teacher smiled and said, "Tomorrow, please recite the three poems that describe the scenery in "Journey to the West". Any three capital trips. β
Young people love it because they like Monkey King's uninhibited and domineering the most.
The more they researched, the more they found that this film was not at all as simple as they had imagined.
Readers who had been waiting for a long time rushed into the major bookstores.
Suddenly, a reader made a comment: "Have you found a problem: there are many, many demons and monsters in "Journey to the West", but the endings of these monsters are very different. The monsters without a background were all killed by Sun Wukong, and the monsters with a background were all picked up by their own backstage. β
It doesn't make sense.
But this time.
Of course, there are still people who are sneering: "It's far from a famous book, just a cool article." β
Never!
But "Journey to the West" broke this curse.
ββ¦β¦β
Finally, someone in the literary world spoke up.
Blue Star didn't know how many readers there were, and his back was cold.
In particular, countless junior and senior high school students, and even elementary school students, took their own living expenses, and fanatically shouted that we want to cultivate immortals, we want new magic weapons, and we want to eliminate magic, holding a book of Journey to the West in their hands.
"Hahaha, just say that "Journey to the West" is unique in the world, you don't believe it!"
The scene is quite exciting.
Reporters around the world have almost taken pictures of many people snapping up "Journey to the West". This situation is much crazier than when "Rose's Fantastic Journey" was published.
The announcement of the International Literary Association convinced everyone completely.
Is this still the "Journey to the West" they know?
this wave.
Netizens have long been confused.
Yunhai Media also reacted quickly, almost when the upper part of "Journey to the West" was just selling well, the senior management immediately held a meeting and decided to establish the "Journey to the West" business department to fully carry out its copyright development.
"You don't say I really didn't notice."
"Mom, I just looked through the original text, and there was nothing wrong with it. The Red Boy, the Black Bear Spirit, the Golden Horn King, and the Silver Horn King all returned to their masters and achieved positive results. And the white bone spirit, tiger power immortal, leopard spirit and other monsters all died tragically under the stick of Sun Wukong. β
For example, the great writer of the current Blue Star, Glovo, has been recognized as a masterpiece and won the Nobel Prize for Literature last year.
That's right!
As for the many demons in Journey to the West, they are all their own demons.
Very good!
A writer analyzed: "In the world of Journey to the West, monsters eat people, people eat people, and the gods and goddesses also eat people. In the story, it seems that the Tang monks and apprentices are experiencing ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties, but in fact, it is to expose the tragic life of ordinary people. For example: At the beginning, Zhu Bajie caught someone casually and ate his mother, the king of inspiration was bold enough to ask the villagers for boys and girls to make offerings, and the golden-winged Dapeng bird ate the men and women of the lion and camel country cleanly. Therefore, where is it written, it is a cool article, but it is mapping reality, exposing the dark and cruel but tragic and helpless reality. β
Masterpiece?
However, what really made the literary world boil was the announcement of the major literary associations of Blue Star next.
Well?
What does it mean?
Many were stunned.
Looking at the reviews of these top analysts and writers, they even think that they are not reading the same book as the other person.
That is:
Is Sun Wukong really dead?
Fighting to defeat the Buddha is a six-eared macaque?
Even if such a conclusion seems incredible, no one says it is absurd, because the character of the Buddha who defeated the Buddha in the end has indeed changed greatly, and it is completely inconsistent with the character of Monkey King.
Someone started a second brush.
However, now, looking at the world, there are not 1,000 writers who interpret "Journey to the West", I am afraid there are 800.
It's called Hanako.
[Why did the Eastern gods and demons conquer the West? γ
Because when they reread "Journey to the West", they can feel an unusual artistic conception.
The combined value of these is less than 100 billion.
[What is the significance of learning scriptures from the west in history? γ
[From "Journey to the West" to see the values and morals of ancient Chinese society]
Oh, God!
Only Wang Mo sneered in his heart.
At first, they didn't think so deeply when they read the book, but at this moment, they carefully recalled the plot, and then compared it with this reader's analysis, their hearts began to beat violently.
It shows that "Journey to the West" is not a happy ending for everyone at all, but a complete tragedy.
Why don't other fantasies be interpreted this way?
Why Journey to the West?
This shows that this article is indeed worth pondering.
Many readers marveled.
TV series.
γDiscussion on team spirit and cooperation consciousness revealed in Journey to the Westγ
This is the top literary association of Blue Star!
The people inside are all big guys.
It's not a happy ending, so what is a happy ending?
If we talk about the Children's Literature Association and the Young People's Literature Association, some people are not convinced.
The upper and lower parts of "Journey to the West" that Wang Mo just gave Zhong An are two of them.
Artistry?
This is what many people questioned at first, and now there is no questioning. The many metaphors, metaphors, and ironies of alternative society displayed in the story have almost shocked many people.
"After reading these reviews, I found that "Journey to the West" was read in vain."
Wretched.
Some say this is an over-interpretation.
At the moment, students from all over the world, especially in Europe and the United States, are still excited.
The excitement of the students disappeared in an instant, and the wails were abounding.
They no longer have any reason.
So far, this long romanticism of more than 900,000 words has been made public.
When things have developed to this extent, no one will look at "Journey to the West" as a simple cool article.
A senior reader: "I don't know what's going on, I suddenly have a numb scalp. β
This value scares many people.
Such as:
ββ¦β¦β
Wang Mo's attention is all fixed on one thing, that is: on this Friday, the second part of "Journey to the West" was officially published.
Seeing these lawless students, I don't know how many teachers have a headache.
Therefore, Wang Mo sneered when he saw those so-called industry insiders analyzing the IP value of "Journey to the West" with tens of billions.
A traditionalist said: "If the world in "Journey to the West" is compared to our real world, then it secretly shows a terrible society full of cannibalism. Even if these people commit heinous crimes, as long as they have a strong background, they will be safe and sound in the end. But if you're alone, you'll end up being a substitute. Doesn't this situation show a dark, cruel and realistic society today? β
Why doesn't "Rose's Adventure" have such a deep meaning?
A teacher shouted at the students: "Today's homework, tell everyone what changes in the seventy-two changes that Sun Wukong has shown in "Journey to the West"? β
The Monkey King represents the human heart, which is transformed from stone, indicating that everyone is born with spirituality, and is born with a rebellious, longing for freedom and a happy life. And Zhu Bajie represents lust, which is a process that everyone has to go through. Monk Sha represents the realization of the purity of nature, and only those who practice hard can find their own nature and become a Buddha. The white dragon horse represents willpower, and must endure the will to be subservient and persevere, and overcome many difficulties.
Older people and a large part of the professionals in the literary world have begun to see the essence through the phenomenon one by one.
The Youth Literature Association then declared: [After careful research by our association, it has been decided to list "Journey to the West" as one of the compulsory books for teenagers outside of class. γ
The young man is still immersed in the mighty and domineering spirit of Sun Wukong.
So much so that countless people around the world have joined the analysis?
Not to mention fantasy, even many famous books have not happened to anything like this.
Many people's hearts tremble when they figure it all out.
Lamentable.
Second, "Journey to the West" is brand new content, and they have enough new content to write about.
"It seems like that's really the case."
Rumble!
Another bombshell.
As mentioned earlier, if it is literary and artistic enough, it can be called a masterpiece.
Every youkai can be seen as a flaw and imperfection in human nature. They represent negative traits such as greed, selfishness, laziness, etc.
So this journey to the west is actually just Tang Seng's cultivation alone. He will persist until the day when the clouds are cleared and the sun is seen. β
As a result, scholars are enthusiastic and their research is gaining momentum.
The second suspicion: Sun Wukong worships under the Bodhi ancestor and belongs to Taoist disciples. Can the Bodhi Ancestor watch his disciples become Buddhas? And Sun Wukong himself has no opinion?
So along this line of thought, I'm thinking about one thing: in the section of the real and fake Monkey King, was it really the six-eared macaque that died? After all, there is such a sentence in the book: No one in the world can tell whether they are true or false, and only if they come can they see through it. β
Billion?
However, at this moment, it is still early to develop various IPs.
If you really want to compare a fantasy with a famous book, this is the most ridiculous.
Perimeter.
It was at this time.
Since the association is great.
There are so many movies, and their combined box office is tens of billions.
At least when they think deeply, they find that this point of view is not nonsense, but that there is such a problem.
Perhaps many of these people are here to take advantage of the heat.
"I suddenly feel that "Journey to the West" is not a cool article, but behind the cool article, with deep pain and helplessness."
First, the content contained in "Journey to the West" is really huge, and it is not enough for them to study it for ten or eight years.
Many literati joined in.
[Looking at life from Sun Wukong's mantra]
Sun Wukong has been rebellious all his life, he just wants to be a free body, but he has been pressed under Wuzhi Mountain for 500 years.
"It's scary to think about."
At this moment, the performance of "Journey to the West" has obviously surpassed the performance of ordinary masterpieces.
Then the International Literary Association declared: "Journey to the West" is a work worth studying and pondering, and it is our honor to have such a work born in the literary world. γ
The first is the Children's Literature Association.
"Unprecedented, who would dare to disagree?"
Which masterpieces can be eaten by readers of all ages?
At this time, they finally realized that maybe "Journey to the West" was not as simple as they imagined.
But many more people think it makes sense.
Game.
Thereupon.
Movie.
There was even a mention of philosophy.
"Yes, rereading revealed many details."
The Children's Literature Society, which is aimed at more than a billion children around the world!
Next, many top literary magazines actually published an article.
Almost all the peripheral IP development now, it is estimated that "Journey to the West" can be easily made.
"Yes, the literary associations have spoken: "Journey to the West" is a must-read list outside of class. Hahaha, who would dare to stop me? β
There is no need to argue.
They originally wanted students not to watch these messy fantasy books, but who would have thought that the damn literary association would actually list "Journey to the West" as a required extracurricular book, is this because their school is not messy enough?
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
TV series, animation, anime...... and other kinds of copyright development, and there are countless of them.
At this time, the black fans who shouted that "Journey to the West" was not a famous book, but purely a cool article, finally closed their mouths and disappeared.
In the end, in order to be reborn, he could only escort Tang Seng Xitian to learn scriptures.
In that case, let's do it!
Children love it because the demons, monsters, gods and Buddhas in it are so cute and wonderful.
Suddenly, another literature lover spoke: "At the end of the story, what we see is that the four Tang monks and apprentices successfully learned the scriptures and achieved positive results. But do you really think it's a happy ending? β
That's the scariest thing!
When I saw that the Tang monks and apprentices were going through nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, and finally got back from the Western Heaven Shogun, and all four of them cultivated to the right fruit, the readers' hearts finally became complete.
Some people are stunned.
ββ¦β¦β
The imagination of netizens is abundant.
A variety of essay-level articles have made scholars seem to have found new research directions.
"Death to me!"
Third, in today's Blue Star, "Journey to the West" is popular enough, so the royalties given by media newspapers are also high enough.
[The deep meaning of the translation of the monster's name in "Journey to the West"]
Many people's pupils become dilated and their hearts begin to roll.
Teacher Hades waved his hand and left homework: "Please read the chapter content of 'Three Dozen White Bone Spirits', and write a review of no less than 800 words." β
What is a Classic?
Some industry insiders speculate that the IP value of "Journey to the West" in the future may be as high as 10 billion.
"Hurry up and join our 'Immortal Cultivation Sect', the teacher can't stop it!"
As soon as this remark came out, it caused an uproar on the whole network.
After experiencing the ninety-nine eighty-one tribulations, I thought that I would achieve positive results. However, in the end, he found out that it was just a complete scam, and he was deceived by Rulai and died in the hands of Rulai. His efforts and struggles did not usher in the final freedom at all, but ended up in a dead end.
They were all dumbfounded.
Originally, these people were usually researching various famous works and publishing articles to earn manuscript fees. And now, they have found a new way to make money:
"Even Tang Seng's rebirth is a big pit."
This view is extremely shocking.
This time.
The interpretations of many top scholars made everyone stunned.
"What's going on? Deliberate or accidental? β
"Oh my God, the more I think about it, the more I realize it's like this. When I was brought into the real world, I suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness as an ordinary person. β
But if it's true, that's the big deal.
The teenagers are still wielding various "fairy weapons" in the classroom and playground to fight and kill.
Seniors love it because they see their own lives.
When they realized the problem, all sorts of analyses came out in an instant.
As the last part of "Journey to the West", of course, everyone wants to know the final ending of the four masters and apprentices for the first time.
It can be said that many famous works written by contemporary writers have not been praised by them. And those who can be recognized by them are definitely at the level of masterpieces!
So, netizens were finally convinced.
"If you look closely, you can really notice a lot of differences."
When almost everyone saw it, a heart became suffocated.
Full Version!
Here it comes!
Now it's okay, and the students are fighting more justifiably.
Unprecedented!
"Who dares to look down on Sun Wukong? You bullshit magicians, I'll pinch you to death with ease. β
Even they themselves are at a loss.
Middle-aged people love it because they feel the helplessness they are experiencing.
For example: students.
"Damn, that's really the case."
No!
However, Huaxia's teachers do not have such a psychological burden at all.
Must-read books outside of class?
Other netizens had some heart palpitations.
Another writer commented: "The pessimism of "Journey to the West" is clearly visible. The reason why Tang Seng was able to become a Buddha was because he complied with the Buddha's wishes; Sun Wukong was able to become a Buddha because he abandoned his rebelliousness and freedom; Sha Seng and Zhu Bajie are the same, and the final result they got is no longer what they dreamed of. Does this mean that if you want to succeed, you have to abandon what you are, and even lose yourself and your dignity? But such a life has lost its original meaning, which is also the helplessness that many of us will experience in life. β
ββ¦β¦β
However, the miracle is not over yet.
But most of them are really interpreting Journey to the West from a literary point of view, and they have also achieved admirable and shocking results.
Another interpretation!
It's even so apt.
"Eat me!"
This sentence means that "Journey to the West" will become the vane of children's books chosen by parents around the world, just like "World Fairy Tales".
At least in the hearts of many people, if it continues to develop to this extent, there will definitely be a great masterpiece in the literary world of Blue Star!
Alas.
Except for him, no one understands the true value of "Journey to the West".
The most critical thing is that it has only been less than a month since the publication of "Journey to the West", which has caused so much turmoil in Blue Star. How far-reaching can it have over time?
Immeasurable.
But the teacher had a big smile on his face.
Sample.
Can't fix you?
Don't worry, "Journey to the West" has a total of 9981 difficulties, and I can write 80 articles in the follow-up. (End of chapter)
