China Entertainment: Indulge in Vanity Fair

Chapter 233 Sun Wukong

On the top of the snow mountain, Tang Seng rode a horse and led two guards to brave the snow.

Narrator: "500 years after Monkey King made a big disturbance in the Heavenly Palace, Avalokitesvara Buddha ordered Xuanzang, a young monk from Huasheng Temple in Chang'an, to go to the west to seek the Tripitaka for saving the world..."

Next, the snow-capped mountains, Gobi, virgin forests and other beautiful scenery under the 3D effect are displayed one by one, which makes the audience feel refreshed just by looking at the beautiful scenery.

Immediately afterwards, film critics and media people in the dark wrote: the 3D effect is amazing, and all kinds of beautiful scenery are magnificent.

However, when the scene changed, Tang Seng and the three came to the Five Elements Mountain, and were chased and killed by a big white tiger.

The white tiger was lifelike, and the dynamics were lifelike. The mighty feeling that could be seen through the screen could rush to the eyes of the audience, and some audience members in the theater screamed in fright.

The next plot was a little bit funny, Huang Xiaoming's performance was really... Let everyone laugh out loud, he was brave enough to stop the tiger from eating the white horse.

"Ah...Brother Tiger, this white horse is not easy, it, it, it... let go, give up the superior life...you and it are both old at the top and young at the bottom, why not... ah... Help..."

Then Tang Seng was chased by the white tiger into the cave of Wuxing Mountain...

The audience laughed, and at the same time, they could see how realistic the CG was, and there was no sense of disobedience.

A sense of high-quality blockbuster hits the face, which is really exciting.

Tang Seng got into the cave, and the tiger was stuck there and couldn't get in. At this moment, a whistle sounded, '咻咻, 咻咻', just like the whistle that people in the countryside use to tease dogs.

"Here, here, it's you, you..." Sun Wukong, played by Deng Chao, shouted.

"Who are you?" Tang Seng asked.

"Help, pull that rag, that's it, that's it."

Tang Seng glanced at the cloth hanging on the stone, and was stunned for a moment, "Yes, yes, there are words."

"Crap."

"Written ones, I can't talk nonsense."

"If you don't want to be eaten by a tiger, just tear it off."

"Ah!" Seeing the tiger approaching, Tang Seng ruthlessly tore off the cloth.

The next paragraph is the Monkey King fighting the white tiger, which makes people look very cool. The fight is very relaxed and mischievous, showing the value of Monkey King's force.

In fact, everyone is more concerned about whether Deng Chao's Monkey King looks like. Generally speaking, it's okay, and I don't reject it.

Most of the film critics and media people wrote: Deng Chao's appearance is qualified, Sun Wukong's appearance can meet expectations, some resentment, playfulness...

Especially the tail behind Sun Wukong is really smart, it can move by itself, and it is not the uncoordinated kind, it doesn't look fake at all.

Monkey King frightened Tang Seng, so when Monkey King came to smell him, Tang Seng was too scared to move.

The audience laughed softly when they saw this, which showed Monkey King's animal nature.

"Could it be you?" Sun Wukong asked.

"Yes, probably not." Tang Seng replied.

"The Bodhisattva asked my old sun to protect a monk to go to the west to learn Buddhist scriptures..."

"My lord, I guess I have identified the wrong person... The little monk came from the Eastern Land of the Tang Dynasty."

Sun Wukong jumped up excitedly when he heard this, "Dongtu Datang? That's right, it's you. Since the Bodhisattva said it, then my old grandson will protect you to go to the West Paradise."

"Protect me?... Isn't it necessary?"

Monkey King rushed forward, "Speak louder."

Tang Seng was startled, and then shouted loudly: "I don't need your protection."

"Oh!" Sun Wukong jumped up and turned two somersaults.

"Bodhisattva, did you hear that? He didn't want to, not my old grandson. Kakaka... then... I can go... oh..."

Monkey King flew away after speaking.

"Haha..." The audience in the theater laughed out loud. This passage is really well written, and it portrays Monkey King's rebellious, rebellious, and slightly funny appearance very well.

The key to the success of this movie is whether Monkey King is well portrayed, because what do you see in "Journey to the West"?What I saw was Monkey King fighting monsters.

If Sun Wukong is not well portrayed, then you can still watch "Journey to the West".

So, at least so far, Deng Chao's acting is okay, with a bit of his own flavor.

The next paragraph is another small joke, Monkey King ran away, and then a box in Tang Seng’s luggage flew out by itself, and then opened it by itself, and a golden iron ring inside flew away...

Seeing this scene, Tang Seng was dumbfounded, thinking that he might offend the monkey, he quickly pretended to be nonchalant and went to pack his luggage.

No, the sound of Monkey King bumping back and forth outside the screen made the audience laugh, and soon Monkey King returned to Tang Seng.

"Little monk, what is this? Why can't you take it off?"

"It was given to me by the Bodhisattva, and I don't know what it is." Tang Seng said cautiously.

Tang Seng is still afraid of this monster, so he has been very careful.

"Hurry up, little monk, take it off for my old grandson... Ka..." Sun Wukong threatened angrily.

"You, don't move, there are words on it."

Tang Seng carefully identified, "Hey..."

"Ah..." The golden hoop on Monkey King's head flashed for a moment, then shrunk a bit, causing Monkey King to cry out in pain.

"Don't move around, I can't read the words clearly when you move." Tang Seng straightened Monkey King's head.

Monkey King didn't dare to move, Tang Seng watched for a while.

"This is still Sanskrit. It seems that I can't just read it, I have to sing..."

"Then hurry up, hurry up, hurry up..."

"Ho ho ho ho ho..."

"Ah... Jie Jie..."

"Benefactor, you have to be patient a little bit, you might be able to untie it after a little patience... Roar..."

"Ah, don't read it." Sun Wukong couldn't bear the pain, and then smashed a boulder with his head.

Tang Seng was so frightened that he wanted to run away, but was caught by Monkey King.

"Want to leave? It's not that easy." After speaking, Monkey King grabbed Tang Seng.

"What exactly do you want?" Tang Seng asked.

"You can either take off my golden hoop now, or I will become your golden hoop. Kakaka..." Monkey King Pi Ya threatened.

"Yeah..." Tang Seng became angry, and he was no longer afraid of this monster, "I told you that I don't know the way to get rid of this golden hoop..."

At this time, Guanyin Bodhisattva appeared, and Pan Zhilin, one of the Fang girls, appeared.

"Hiss, this is the sweetest Guanyin, right? It's a little less majestic, but it has a different flavor." Someone in the audience whispered.

Indeed, Pan Zhilin's version of Avalokitesvara is too sweet. Although He Fang has added a holy halo to her, the solemnity of Baoxiang is still a little bit less, and it is a bit sweeter.But is Guanyin sweet?She was originally a merciful image, wouldn't she be more approachable if she was sweeter?It seems right to think so.

Avalokitesvara told Sun Wukong that he had to assist Tang Seng to learn scriptures before he could remove his golden hoop. As a result, Sun Wukong flew away to learn scriptures before Guanyin finished speaking.

As a result, it flew back in a circle and was still in place.

Tang Seng patted him and said: "Your Excellency, the Bodhisattva asked me to tell you that if you want to 'piu' fly over like this, it will definitely not work."

"Every difficulty on the way of learning scriptures is good luck, and every step is practice. Life is so wonderful."

Sun Wukong was puzzled: "It's amazing to take one step at a time?"

"Yes, inexplicably wonderful."

"Pfft, haha..." The audience laughed. This section is very interesting, it lasts only 10 minutes, but it shows how Tang Seng met Monkey King, how Monkey King appeared on the stage, and how the master and apprentice established a relationship very concisely. Effective and very interesting.

"He Fang's ability to handle the script is really good. It only took 10 minutes to vividly connect the master and apprentice together. I admire it."

"Yes, and the actors he chose were pretty good. Deng Chao played the Monkey King, and Huang Xiaoming played the Tang Seng. I was thinking before, if I were to shoot Journey to the West, who would play the Monkey King and who would play the Tang Seng? It was really hard to choose. Unexpectedly, Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao really hit the spot together."

"The special effects can also be done, very realistic, it really is produced by somewhere, it's a high-quality product..."

While the people in the dark were chatting, the plot changed. An evil dragon came and ate the white horse, and then Monkey King defeated the evil dragon and turned it into a white horse.

After that, Tang Seng and Sun Wukong went west to learn Buddhist scriptures together, and Tang Seng turned into a chatterbox...

With the transition of the picture, the camera takes the audience to a canyon, and in the house built against the wall there is someone pretending to be Mrs. Bone catching children.

But I met the real Mrs. Bone, and there is a scene where a few monsters appear on the stage, but the monsters are indeed a bit realistic, and the audience took a breath, scary?There is a little bit, but what is even more breath-taking is that they...

This... The special effects of the monsters are so realistic, there is no incongruity at all, and it feels like they are really half-human, half-demon things.

Swish, swish... Film critics and media people quickly took notes.

At this time, Mrs. Bone appeared, that is, Miss Fang.

The audience in the theater were all staring at the screen, and Yan Ran, who was sitting under the stage, was also nervous and excited, clutching the chair support, his whole body was a little stiff, as if it was the first time.

The public opinion during this period was not good for her. Many netizens felt that she was far inferior to Fan Bingbing, and even worse than the Four Little Huadans.

This put a lot of pressure on her. Although Fan Bingbing had repeatedly enlightened her, she was not convinced in her heart, but what can she do?

She only hopes that her character, Mrs. Bones, can silence those who question her.

Therefore, when she appeared on stage, she herself was very nervous.

"Wow, this special effect is well done. Mrs. Bones appears with smoke. This is not simple, it is a bit imaginative."

After Mrs. Bones appeared on the stage with a pure white appearance, the audience still recognized it.

Mrs. Bone sucked up the person who pretended to be her, and then disappeared again. Then he returned to her lair, Poyue Cave, took a shower, looked in the mirror for a while, and saw Tang Seng in the mirror...

This group of shots is the performance of Mrs. Bones, and most of the audience nodded silently after watching it.

Although I can't see anything from just such a little drama, the overall feeling is sensual, although it is not amazing, but there is no problem, let's continue watching.

There is nothing to say about the following plot, that is, Drifting Monk and Zhu Bajie appeared one after another, and Drifting Monk was turned into a mentally retarded image, which made film critics very dissatisfied.

Zhu Bajie is a bit interesting, lustful, greedy, fearful and other characteristics are vividly displayed, and Xu Guangtou has some experience in playing this Zhu Bajie.

So Zhu Bajie's fight with Monkey King is really something to watch, and the theater laughed out loud.

The special effects, fighting, plot, and setting are all really successful. This kind of Journey to the West looks good, at least it is worth the price of the ticket, and it is worth the money.

The film critics scribbled down the main points, and wrote down the general points of each scene.

For example, in the use of colors, Zhu Bajie is dressed in red, Drifting Monk is dressed in blue, Sun Wukong is dressed in golden yellow, Tang Seng is dressed in turquoise, and the team of Mrs. Bone is basically snow-white. It feels like a group of monsters rather than a group of monsters. It's a group of fairies.

Why do you set the color for each character in this way? What is the meaning of the director?These are what film critics should care about.

And the whole plot is humorous. Although everyone knows that it is fighting against the bone spirit, but who has adapted it so much, what is the specific process behind it?At least until now, the audience can't see how the quartet of learning from the scriptures will pass the level of the white tiger leading the bone lady. This is what everyone looks forward to.

"It's kind of interesting. He Fang is a genius in the play, and the adaptation is really good."

"The actors are also well chosen. Looking at them, I thought about it and found that there is really no good replacement. And the director is very strong. How many directors in China can make such special effects movies? Bragging I’ve heard a lot about it, but now I only see He Fang and Tsui Hark, who else can do it?”

"Painted Skin 2, I heard that it was also made in 3D, with a lot of special effects, and it was also made by Huying Special Effects Company."

"I guess there should be a gap with "Three Dozens of Bones". It will be released on the 20th, so go and see it."
