Speaking of the actor Liu Xiaolingtong, we all know that his most representative work is "Journey to the West". Yes, the 1986 version of Journey to the West has indeed been aired for 35 years. Even though it has been remade countless times, this version is still regarded as the most classic and unsurpassed existence. In addition to the high degree of restoration of the props, the actors' true interpretation is also one of the fundamental reasons for the huge response of this drama.
In the play, the six-year-old boy vividly displays Sun Wukong's "monkey power". Every move he makes makes him look like he is Sun Wukong's "monkey". He can't even see the shadow of a human being at all. This height is No one among dozens of people who have been remade in the past can achieve this.
But at the same time, Liu Xiaolingtong was not Sun Wukong’s first choice, because besides him, there were many other rivals.
Fortunately, after many obstacles, he broke through thousands of candidates and successfully became the only "Monkey King" in Yang Jie's mind. Only then did he get the opportunity to star in "Journey to the West".
I believe everyone remembers the Year of the Monkey Spring Festival Gala five years ago. Because six-year-old children were rejected by CCTV, CCTV was besieged and bombarded by many netizens. As a last resort, CCTV closed comments.
The answer given by the six-year-old boy at that time was that no matter when the Spring Festival Gala needs me, I will definitely attend. In addition, from February 4th to 8th, 2016, he was invited to participate in the Spring Festival Gala of Shandong Satellite TV, Liaoning Satellite TV, and Beijing Satellite TV. Many netizens even said: CCTV’s approach is too unauthentic. I will watch Journey to the West whenever the Spring Festival Gala comes. remember.
What’s funny is that in the same year, he also began to criticize other people and even Stephen Chow’s role in “The Supreme Treasure”. In his opinion, other people’s actions were completely contrary to the original work, except for him Everyone seems to be wrong.
He even bluntly said that there is only one Monkey King in the minds of 1,000 viewers, and it is self-evident who this Monkey King is.
While he excluded others from playing the role of Monkey King, he even pointed out that he should not remake "Journey to the West" randomly to avoid damaging the original work. But it seems that he was the first to use it to gain popularity and even start a business. For example, as early as 27 years ago, he applied for the trademarks of "Sun Wukong" and "Monkey King" in his own name.
Endorsing advertisements in the name of "Monkey King"
I wonder, while condemning Stephen Chow for "ruining the original work," what have you done that is of high moral character and worthy of praise from others?
In addition, this newly released movie by Liu Xiaolingtong is even more slap in the face.
Douban score is 2.6, doesn’t that explain everything?
It seems to tell a story that is completely different from "Journey to the West", but in fact it often integrates the plot of "Journey to the West" with it. Coupled with the shoddy shooting process, it received box office within 20 days of release. Only 232,000, you can imagine how the producer is feeling at this moment...
Although several old people in "Journey to the West", such as Tang Monk, Sha Monk, Bajie, Wukong and others are involved, but a film It is an inevitable trend for a film with no content and quality to be completely watered down and ultimately face failure.
I seem to have seen the sentence "Only the state officials are allowed to set fires, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps." There is indeed nothing to say about Liu Xiaolingtong's successful interpretation of the role of Sun Wukong, but he must use chicken feathers as arrows , try your best to praise yourself while spurring others on, or simply rest on your laurels, only to be ostracized and ridiculed by others in the end. After all, no matter how great a person's achievements are, it is the most precious thing when it comes from the mouths of others.
