Chapter 795 Idea Controversy

update of the latest chapter of the entertainment empire!
But…
such a design does not seem to prevent “Journey to the West” from becoming an excellent movie, does it?
Put away the notebook.
Hearing the warm applause ringing in his ears, Xu Wenjing smiled slightly and joined in.
“Phew.”
Zhou Xingchi sighed lightly.
The handling of the last episode is quite risky, and it is very different from the first version of the script. Even if the audience did not resist too much when the trailer revealed this, he has always been worried that there will be problems with the evaluation, but judging from the observation of today’s premiere, It seems that everyone’s senses are not bad.
“How is it?”
Luo Xun asked Xia Yu next to him.
He and Zhang Suining had both acted in the movie, and had read the script in advance, with too many personal feelings, so he wanted to see what Xia Yu had to say.
“That’s right.”
Xia Yu thought for a while and said, “This is the first time I’ve seen such a powerful Tang monk. It’s very innovative, and for Journey to the West, this is a subversion.”
“This is designed by Luo Xun.”
Zhang Sui Ning said, still a little proud.
Xia Yu was immediately curious: “Why do you design it this way?”
Luo Xun smiled and said, “Because Jin Chanzi is the second apprentice of Buddha Tathagata, it is said that once, when Tathagata was teaching sutras, classmate Jin Chanzi did not listen carefully and made a mistake, so Tathagata punished him for reincarnation once. , it turned out to be Tang Seng after reincarnation, that is, Xuan Zang in this movie.”
“Didn’t attend class?”
Xia Yudeng’s face became strange.
Luo Xun nodded: “The crime is to despise Buddhism.”
In the
original “Journey to the West”, a passage of Buddha Tathagata to Tang monk can roughly answer Xia Yu’s question, he said: “Holy monk, you were my two disciples in your previous life, and your name is Call Jin Chanzi. Because you didn’t hear the Dharma, you despised my great teaching, so you demoted your true spirit, reincarnated in the eastern land, and now I like to take refuge. , to be promoted to a great position and a positive result.” The Tathagata
said it in a very general way.
When preparing the character biography, Luo Xun had to search for information in many ways, which enriched the character image: it turns out that this Jin Chanzi is the most proud disciple of the Tathagata, the Tathagata has ten disciples, and Jin Chanzi ranks the second, but the most talented Invincible –
the third disciple of the Tathagata is Guanyin.
The reason why such a talented and intelligent Buddha was punished for dozing off in class was actually nothing more than an excuse. The real reason was
the dispute between Jin Chanzi and Tathagata.
Therefore, Luo Xun boldly designed that the person who the Tathagata really wants to save is Jin Chanzi, the disobedient and most powerful second apprentice.
As for Jin Chanzi beating Wukong…
The original “Journey to the West” does not have a specific description of Jin Chanzi’s force value, but a guy who can talk with Tathagata to beat Wukong doesn’t seem to be too abrupt, at least Luo Xun is so convinced Star’s.
There are some side descriptions of Jin Chanzi in the original work.
From the side description, Jin Chanzi is a very good person, the ancestor of the earth immortal whose force value is more terrifying than Sun Wukong, and even the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva wants to make a third of Zhenyuan Daxian like Jin Chanzi very much, “Journey to the West” No. Twenty-four times, Zhen Yuanzi confessed the story of himself and Tang Seng to his subordinates: “You learned about it. That monk is the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, the second disciple of the Western Saint and Old Tathagata. Five hundred years ago, I and I He met at the Lanpen Meeting, he once passed tea with his own hands, and the Buddha respected me, so it was an old friend.
”
After 500 years of acquaintance, Zhenyuan Daxian still remembers Tang Seng, an old friend, and instructed the two boys Qingfeng and Mingyue to treat them well. The treats were two prickly pears. These prickly pears are very precious, and it takes 10,000 years to bear 30 of them. .
As a result…
it was such a polite and respectful young Buddhist man, but he was banished to the East because he did not listen carefully when Master Tathagata taught the sutras and was accused of “scorning the Dharma”. The punishment is really heavy enough.
Therefore, the battle of ideas is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Including many later interpretations of “Journey to the West”, they all think so. Although Tang Seng was a monk when he came to the world, it did not affect his future in the slightest. Stepping into Qingyun became a great master, and he decided to go to the West to learn scriptures. When selecting a candidate, Nanhai Guanyin was in charge of the assessment and selection. In order to please her superior Tathagata Buddha, she naturally chose Tang Seng, leaving a robe and sending a cane. For fear that others would not know, after everything was arranged, she walked into the air and threw a note saying:
“I am Nanhai Guanyin.”
Tang Wang saw that this was the person selected by Nanhai Guanyin. As a little king in the world, how could he dare to neglect him, and he was very good at making things happen to Tang Seng. In this way, Tang Seng has people in heaven and earth. In the finale of “Journey to the West”, Tang Seng was named Zhantan Gongde Buddha, which is considered to be forgiven by Tathagata Buddha and returned to the Buddhist world.
Sun Wukong is very famous.
People in the world say that Sun Wukong, who fought and defeated the Buddha, is just a monkey who lost his ego after being recruited. His words are always full of regrets. Is Jin Chanzi who returned to the Buddha world another monkey?
So Luo Xun thinks that Xuanzang is a good protagonist.
While echoing “Journey to the West”, you can also make a fuss about the identity of Jin Chanzi. After all, he is Guanyin’s senior brother, a man who dares to argue with his invincible master.
The original did not mention this.
Therefore, Xuanzang in the original film did not have any highlight moments from beginning to end, but in the end, he summoned the Tathagata with “Three Hundred Children’s Songs” transformed into “The True Sutra of the Great Sun”, and then beat the monkey.
“It sounds too ironic.”
Xia Yu smiled and said, “But when I watched it, I didn’t think much of it, I just thought it was new. I was very happy to see Sun Wukong being beaten by Xuanzang. Who made him so fierce? In addition, I suspect that 80% of the money you made for special effects was spent on the battle between Jin Chanzi and Sun Wukong, and the dignified Tathagata only gave a picture of Tathagata’s palm stingly, paying tribute to “Kung Fu”?”
Luo Xun Shrugged.
What Xia Yu said is the truth. The most difficult part of the whole movie with special effects was Jin Chanzi beating Sun Wukong. Unfortunately, the Tathagata got into a fight at the end. Sutra.
“Do you know what’s wrong?”
In the movie just now, Tathagata asked Jin Chanzi such a sentence. The movie did not explain whether Jin Chanzi knew or not, but in the final scene, Sun Wukong and Jin Chanzi joined hands to meet the Tathagata’s palm, This screen design is quite interesting –
this is the idea of Xing Ye.
Luo Xun didn’t ask Xing Ye what this design meant, maybe it was an alluding to the real beginning of the master-disciple relationship?
Hard to say.
In a word, from the later stories of Journey to the West, Sun Wukong really respects Tang Seng, not just the threat of the curse and the heavy pressure of the Tathagata.
In fact.
Many designs in the movie are quite ingenious, and they do carry some of Zhou Xingchi’s feelings, such as Monkey King’s satire of Xuanzang’s “because you are blind”, and another example, “Ten thousand years is too long, love me, now “and many more.
