Almighty Daddy: Opening Twins

Chapter 234 Joining the "Journey to the West" Crew (Part [-])
hiss!
Can this also win?

Wang Jijie said that he couldn't even understand it, but this obviously showed a problem, that is, his chess skills had improved greatly, and he was probably still a bit behind in front of Bai Yu.

"Okay, okay, let's eat!"

The old man seemed very happy, he ignored his son, and took Bai Yu to the restaurant, causing Wang Jijie to roll his eyes.

But when the meal was over, the third uncle suddenly said: "Your joining the crew of "Journey to the West" should have a result!"

The cartoon "Journey to the West" only aired four or five episodes, but... a lot of things were revealed.

The character design of each character is not just placed on the animation.

In fact, live-action TV series can also be used as a reference.

As for these things, generally speaking, there is no one that cannot be produced after more than half a year of tossing, and some may even take a year or two to toss.

Not to mention anything else, what should I do with the character image of the Monkey King?
Yes!
Everyone knows that it is the Monkey King, and they also know that if it is to be shown in a TV series, it must not be based on the original work.

But the question is, how did this Monkey King get his costume?
The only thing they can refer to is the appearance of Monkey King in some dramas. Therefore, before this, the commissioners in the crew were still arguing whether to follow the original work or beautify it. After the Monkey King is determined to beautify, they have to decide How to beautify.

When it was determined to refer to the appearance of Monkey King in the opera, some people felt that it could be used directly without reference.

Yes, some people even thought it would be okay to use Sun Wukong with a face full of oil paint.

Someone asked which opera the Monkey King was used for.

After all, there are too many types of music in Dahua, and the book Havoc in Heaven is considered famous among many types of music.

Of course, the appearance of Monkey King in many genres is similar.

But the problem is that people have selfishness!
For example, the people from Imperial City in the group thought that it would be enough to use the Monkey King's appearance in Peking Opera, while the Xijing people in the group said that they should use the Monkey King's appearance in Qin Opera.

Ok!

Everyone quarreled together, from the beginning of the meeting to the end of the quarrel, and then walked away.

After arguing about it for more than ten days, Tongquan finally made a decision!
It doesn't matter whether it's Peking Opera, Qin Opera, Huai Opera, etc., it doesn't matter, just use it as a reference!

Ok!

Original!

Originality is troublesome, because Sun Wukong is the soul character in the book "Journey to the West". Among so many dramas, the character Sun Wukong has produced many images, and the image you want to design this time cannot be different from other dramas. The image in is weak.

And because it is difficult to agree with everyone, then the image of this character must be liked by more than half of the people.

And this matter has basically been debated since the formation of the "Journey to the West" script discussion group until now.

Of course, many versions were released during the period, for example, some people said to use monkeys directly!
Some people also said that although it was a monkey, it was just a symbol. You can't really use a monkey, but just put on some makeup.

There are also people who say you can do it without makeup.

Well, each has his own opinion.

Anyway, what to say.

until……

The appearance of the cartoon "Journey to the West" made many people's minds suddenly enlightened, and a thought appeared in many people's minds, this is what the Monkey King looks like, okay?

"I can't rest all day!"

Li Shuhua rolled her eyes. In her opinion, why did Baiyu take pictures of these things? It's better to delve into the field of calligraphy and painting. With Baiyu's amazing skills, she will definitely become famous in the painting and calligraphy circle within three to five years.

You must know that art does not mean that you are strong enough, but you also need qualifications.

Of course, if you are strong enough to a certain level, you don't need it, just like Bai Yu's cursive script!
As the saying goes, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black. People who don't understand may think that they can't read the characters, but for real insiders, Bai Yu's writing is a real magic stroke.

The old man had a lot of fun because of the pair of "When Will the Moon Come Away". During the period, he also organized a small exhibition with friends at home, mainly to show off the pair of "When Will The Bright Moon Come Away".

But envy many people!

"I feel so too!"

The fourth son, Wang Jijie, believed that Baiyu should come out of the mountains to represent Dahua Go, sweeping all countries, and finally persevere for an era because he has such a high level in Go.

You must know that Go, from ancient times to the present, has been a real high-class game. A person who can hold down an era will definitely leave a name in history. How wonderful!
What kind of movie is going to be filmed, it's thankless.

Bai Yu served Wang Lina with food. The two of them lowered their heads and said nothing, as if you say what you want, and I will eat mine.

Of course, Bai Yu also knew that these people were just small suggestions, after all...

Li Shuhua was good at calligraphy and painting, so she naturally hoped that Bai Yu could take this path.

And Wang Jijie is now the vice president of the Go Association. He is committed to the development of Dahua Go, so he naturally feels that Bai Yu is a talent, and it is best to take the path of Go!

The phone call that Uncle San mentioned came the next morning. It was a middle-aged man with a thick voice!
"Hello, I'm Zhao Chengli, as the crew of "Journey to the West", welcome to join us!"

Then he said the specific time and place, and hoped that Bai Yu could come to the regular meeting.

This kind of drama is not like other TV dramas.

From the book, character modeling, music, etc., it is necessary to hold a meeting to make decisions.

To put it bluntly, this is all a little bit of arguing.

Although holding a meeting is very troublesome, in fact, this is the best way to reach a consensus. After all, this is a national-level project. Here, nothing can be done without words, even if Tongquan is the chief director.

The better time is afternoon!

Bai Yu liked this very much, he didn't want to go to the meeting early in the morning.

The place is not at the TV station, but in the hotel next to it. It is said that a small banquet hall has been rented for a long time, and it will be used as the starting point of Journey to the West.

Bai Yu called when he came, and when he got downstairs, the little sister Yingbin was already waiting.

Seeing Bai Yu, a little doubt flashed in his eyes.

But when he said his name, he immediately led it inside.

Up to the fifteenth floor, as soon as I went out, I saw the three big characters of "Journey to the West" pasted on the big wooden door, and there were still people waiting at the door.

Bai Yu didn't know what these people were doing, so the welcoming girl knocked on the door, then opened the door and brought Bai Yu in.

The banquet hall was not big, after all it was just a meeting place, when Bai Yu came in, there were already seven or eight people inside, and they were generally older.

Although "Journey to the West" has not formed a field of knowledge like "The Story of the Stone", there are many scholars who study "Journey to the West". Most of the people invited this time are those who have studied "Journey to the West".

"Our wind guide is here!"

When Bai Yu came in, a chubby man in his fifties looked over.

As soon as he spoke, the others stared at Bai Yu in unison, most of them were curious.

When Bai Yu came in, it was indeed eye-catching.

Firstly, the person is good-looking and tall, secondly, he is young.

Those who can sit here for a meeting are basically in their forties. When it comes to "Journey to the West", they can go on for three to five days without stopping, and most of them have published books related to "Journey to the West".

Some of these people may not be very interested in the name Fengdao at the beginning, and some of them are more respectful.

after all……

Bai Yu can produce works, even if some people don't like martial arts novels, but can you say this in front of everyone?

One generation overwhelms one generation, and the new generation likes it. What the older generation can do is to watch it carefully. If you use your age to rely on the old to sell the old, not only the new generation will not like it, but the older generation will also think you have no grace and lower your status.

after all……

Everyone comes here like this!

Not to mention……

The overall status of this person is no lower than that of the people present.

"Tsk, I didn't expect Feng Dao to be so young. My little granddaughter said that Feng Dao is young and handsome. I still don't believe it!"

Bai Yu has already started to take off her heavy coat and mask.

Showing a handsome face, it attracted many people's attention.

"Haha, I don't know if Feng Dao is married or not!"

"Ergou, you are already married!"

"You are only two dogs, your whole family is dogs!"

"Hello teachers, my name is Bai Yu, you can call me Xiaobai!"

Bai Yu put away the coat and the like, and greeted several people present.

"Are young people very polite? But it's better to be called Feng Dao. Here, there is no such thing as seniority!"

The one who spoke first came over, patted Bai Yu, and whispered, "Your third uncle Wang Jiying and I are old friends!"

In a word, Bai Yu suddenly understood!
It seems that this is the high-level radio and television executive on "Journey to the West".

It's like Wang Jiying is in charge of "Story of the Stone"!
And this voice...

"Zhao……"

"Haha, it's me!"

It was Zhao Chengli who made the phone call, and it was Zhao Chengli who personally invited Bai Yu, which was enough to give Wang Jiying face.

"Come on, sit down, sit down!"

Although Zhao Jiancheng is a high-level executive in radio and television, responsible for following "Journey to the West" and solving some unnecessary troubles, but many people present are not ordinary, so it looks like a meeting of old friends.

Just like before he called someone Ergou, that person also countered that Zhao Chengcheng's family is all dogs.

After sitting down, everyone was more interested in Baiyu. Although these people were all in their forties, fifties or sixties, but...

Obviously, he has seen some of Bai Yu's films, but obviously not all of them, most of them are one or two.

And soon, Bai Yu knew the names of these people.

"It's true that the waves behind push the waves ahead. The young people of today are amazing!"

A director is a chief engineer. To put it bluntly, if you want to be a director, you have to understand aesthetics, photography, screenwriting, etc...

Although this does not require proficiency, it is definitely not just a matter of simply sitting there.

Therefore, a well-known director's involvement must be very extensive, which is why Bai Yu and everyone here can talk about the mountains.

"I've watched your "Journey to the West" cartoon. The characters in it have inspired us a lot. Monkey King, Zhu Bajie, Drifting Monk, Tang Monk, and even Guanyin Tathagata, etc.!"

Although these gods also exist in the temple, the problem is that you can’t move the gods out of the temple when you’re making a TV series.

To put it bluntly, TV dramas can be down-to-earth, but not down-to-earth. If you get that thing, are you going to shoot a horror movie?

"But... I went to find the leader of the children's show, but unfortunately that guy... that guy won't show me the follow-up!"

Are four episodes too many?

In fact, there are already many!
Not to mention the appearance of a foursome in the opening song.

But people are so dissatisfied, they watched four episodes, just like watching the follow-up designs of those goblins.

"Go back tonight and give everyone a copy!"

Bai Yu knew what these people wanted.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Zhao Chengcheng had a teachable expression.

And at this moment, the door opened again, Tong Quan walked in, his eyes swept away, and he fell on Bai Yu. Although he had never met Feng Zi before, everyone agreed on Feng Zi's coming. .

Everyone else knows, just this...

"Feng Dao, welcome to join the crew of Journey to the West!"

Although Tongquan was a little reluctant, because he knew that it was definitely not that simple to join, and he even came in to take the lead.

But he can't help it, this task is not that simple.

"Hello, Mr. Tong, I really like your "Jingwei Filling the Sea"!"

Tong Quan's ability to be appointed as the chief director of "Journey to the West" is definitely not easy.

And this Jingwei reclamation is also a fairy tale. Of course, the most famous one is that he once filmed the movie "Fengshen Bang". This movie created a record high ratings of 40.00% during the film panic era!

"Oh, so you have seen my "Jingwei Filling the Sea"!"

Tong Quan was taken aback and laughed.

When other people saw him, most of them would talk about "Feng Shen Bang", but in fact, he might be happier when he heard about other films. film, it proves that the other party really understands.

With Bai Yu's words, the relationship became closer, Tong Quan knocked on the table, and divided up the materials brought in earlier.

"This is a rough notebook we typed before, let's take a look first!"

These words were mainly for Bai Yu, after all, he was added in the middle, and the finalization of the book was decided by the people present, so they naturally knew what this rough book looked like.

Bai Yu took the documents and began to read them.

"Journey to the West" is different from other TV dramas. It is a chapter-style novel, so when filming, it is difficult to follow one another. But at the same time, these difficulties do not necessarily have to be coherent. That is to say, It doesn't have to be all the monsters in the novel.

Of course, the most famous ones, or the most coherent ones in front, such as "The Monkey King is Born", such as "Treasure in the Dragon Palace", such as "Havoc in Heaven", etc., these order cannot be wrong.

And like the black-bone chicken country, the daughter country, etc., these orders can actually be adjusted.

Naturally, Bai Yu also saw many familiar monsters.

The few points that Baiyu valued the most were, of course, Havoc in Heaven, Daughter's Country, Three Dozens of Bone Demons, etc., but what surprised Baiyu was that the Daughter's Country and Three Dozens of Bone Demons were not the most important points.

If there are important things in the book, they will be marked with red pen, just like the havoc in the Heavenly Palace is marked with red pen, which proves that this plot must be emphasized.

"How about it?"

Zhao Chengli asked.

"not bad!"

After all, they are all masters of Journey to the West. These people's vision is still very good. From many chapters, they have found the most exciting parts and eliminated some not so good ones.

There are real and fake Monkey King, Flame Mountain in Distress and so on.

"The book still needs to be perfected, but the most important thing now is to find actors. What do you think?"

"The highlight of the book "Journey to the West" is Monkey King, so this is a soul character, and there must be someone who can play monkeys!"

As Bai Yu spoke, he took out his mobile phone, and clicked a few pictures.

This is Bai Yu's picture of Sun Wukong, the great sage equal to heaven, after receiving a call.

Of course, it is exactly the appearance of Monkey King in the previous life.

"This is what the real Sun Wukong looks like in my mind!"

Zhao Chengli stared at Bai Yu's cell phone, his eyes were shining brightly.

In those few photos, there are Monkey King wearing ordinary Taoist clothes, there are also Monkey King wearing a golden armor, a purple gold crown on his head, and a golden cudgel on his shoulders.

When Zhao Jianli saw these photos, he was stunned.

Sun Wukong!
Monkey King!

Darling, this is Monkey King, Monkey King, what I really want!
"it is good!"

Zhao Chengli slapped the table and shouted loudly.

This roar startled the others, and they all looked at Zhao Chengli, and Zhao Chengli met their gazes and laughed loudly: "Show me a baby!" Then he said emphatically: "Okay!" baby!"

Immediately afterwards, the staff was called and asked him to put a few photos on the whiteboard.

then……

These photos of Monkey King, Monkey King, appeared in everyone's sight.

hiss!
"This is……"

"Sun Wukong!"

"Monkey King!"

There is no need to remind everyone, everyone will know that this is Monkey King Monkey King, because when seeing these photos, the blurry figure in the heart was immediately cleared away and turned into its appearance.

Tong Quan was also stunned.

Monkey King Monkey King!
Isn't this the Monkey King everyone wants?
Be nice!

Tongquan asked eagerly, "Fengzi, where did this come from?"

Bai Yu said, "I drew it myself!"

I can draw it myself!
I can draw myself...

This sentence was like a distant bell, echoing in the minds of everyone bit by bit. After a while, you looked at me and I looked at you, all of them were shocked.

Someone also asked in disbelief: "Drawn? Is this drawn?"

Damn, isn't this a photo?
"What about the model?"

"There is no model, I drew it with the Monkey King in my heart!"

There must be a model, it is a postcard from the previous life, but the problem is that the artist with two blooms is not here.

"This is also done after makeup, so we can just make a mask, but... the choice of monkey is still very important. The Monkey King in my "Journey to the West" cartoon is facing a child, so although he looks like a monkey, he can The monkey’s movements and demeanor are less, this is also to take care of the children, but TV dramas can’t do it!”

To put it bluntly, many cartoons use the shape of animals, but in fact the shape and behavior don't look like that animal at all.

Tong Quan said: "I have already asked people to choose the role of Monkey King. There are many families of monkey opera from the north and the south. I believe the result will come out soon!"

Bai Yu suddenly realized, then he was needless to worry!
