Chapter 607: The Poor Westward Journey Crew
This time, the crew of "Journey to the West" is here to re-film the last five episodes.
The Yangshan Scenic Area in Yuezhou was a quarry in ancient times.
Maybe it was the bad taste of the quarry workers, leaving behind many strange rocks. When people walk in it, they are like walking in a different world, and they are very magical.
This kind of venue is more in line with the scenes of mythical crew like "Journey to the West".
"Journey to the West" was aired during the Spring Festival in 1986. You can think of this influence. It is said that the highest ratings at that time reached 90%, which can only be described as empty.
So when the crew came to Yuezhou to film, the crowd was filled with drums and drums, firecrackers and red flags, and crowds of people.
The enthusiastic Yuezhou people gathered around the crew to watch the fun, and also shouted to cheer for their fellow villagers.
The fellow villager is the Liu Xiaolingtong, the monkey. He is a native of Yuezhou. His father is a famous Shao Opera artist and an outstanding representative of the Southern School Monkey Opera.
Liu Xiaolingtong was actually a Shao Opera actor when he was a child. Later, when he was preparing to film "Journey to the West", director Yang Jie came to Yuezhou for an interview in person and finally chose him.
Chen Xia drove the cool red off-road vehicle and carried Gu Lin over.
I heard that the crew of "Journey to the West" was coming, and Gu Lin shouted to go and see the fun. Chen Xia was fine when she heard it. After all, "Journey to the West" was really the TV he saw since childhood and must play every summer vacation.
When I heard the opening song, the beeping sound was so excited. Since I was reborn, of course I had to experience it myself.
Chen Xia's off-road vehicle is definitely not inferior to Liu Xiaolingtong. Anyway, everyone in Yuezhou knows that the director of Yuezhou People's Hospital is here, and it is said that he is still the prince.
Such a prince is watching the fun, and the local staff from Yuezhou immediately reported to the director and producer.
Who is Yang Jie? No matter whether you are the prince or the local emperor, if you want to come and watch the fun, stand aside and don’t make any noise. As for wanting her to come to entertain you, you have no time.
Chen Xia didn't care. He was here to watch the fun, not to show off his power, unlike some local snakes in later generations who had to take the actresses in the crew to drink, eat and sing with them.
Several local staff were very polite, and asked Chen Xia and Gu Lin to a VIP position behind the director. Behind the director, it must be the best place to see.
Chen Xia was also kind of polite and asked the staff to move several boxes of Coke in his car, which was considered a gift of condolences.
He himself and Gu Lin watched how the actors filmed with interest. Hey, what monkey, Zhu Bajie, Tang Monk, and Sha Monk.
This is the original version, it is indeed the taste of my childhood, and it has not changed at all.
Chen Xia didn't dare to make a sound, just because he was afraid that the director would let him get out, but there was an old man next to him who couldn't help but shout at the monkey not far away during the filming:
"Jinlai, your movement was wrong just now. When you jumped up, you should be like this...and then... Do you understand?"
Chen Xia was shocked. The director hadn’t said anything yet, what were you, the audience, talking nonsense? After a closer look, hey, isn’t this Liu Xiaolingtong’s father, Mr. Liu Lingtong?
Khan, I am also a performing artist, so I will give some advice to Liu Xiaolingtong, who was still young at this time, is indeed qualified. Director Yang smiled and looked back with a smile, saying nothing.
It is too late to help the actor correct his actions and make the filming more perfect.
When Chen Xia met the old artist, he became a little restless and moved over quietly: "Teacher Liu, hello, hello."
The staff next to him burst out laughing.
Of course, Liu Lingtong knew this famous person in Yuezhou and replied with a smile:
"Director Chen, you're wrong. My surname is Zhang. Liulingtong is my stage name, hahaha."
Chen Xia looked embarrassed. This was a loss of being uneducated.
Gu Lin covered her face while quietly moving away a few steps, and decided to keep a certain distance from her husband, pretending not to know this rustic bun.
"Teacher Zhang, are you visiting Brother Six? Oh, yes..."
Liu Lingtong smiled and said, "His name is Zhang Jinlai. He is my youngest son, born in 59."
"Hey, I'm born in 1962, so I can call you Brother Sheng. By the way, Teacher Zhang, have you been broadcasting all of "Journey to the West"? Why are you still filming?"
"I haven't broadcasted all the episodes. I've broadcasted more than ten episodes before, and there are still 14 episodes to broadcast later. I just got 3 million sponsorships. The director wanted to shoot all the next few episodes. Unfortunately, the money is still not enough."
Chen Xia didn't know that the crew of "Journey to the West" was not enough, but was full of problems:
"Why, I didn't finish the shooting because I didn't have enough money?"
"Yes, you may not know that CCTV will not allocate funds. Teacher Li finally got 3 million sponsorships, which is only enough to shoot another 5 episodes. Unfortunately, such a TV series that is popular among the masses was cut in half."
Old artists all have a common problem, that is, they require perfection.
Whether it is the stage, costume, prop, or the state, lines, and performance of the actor, try to be perfect. It is better not to get a salary than to perform the trick perfectly.
As a result, because I have no money, I can only break my back for more than ten episodes, which makes Director Yang, the crew, and even outsiders like Liu Lingtong feel very regretful.
At this time, Gu Lin quietly touched Chen Xia: "Hey, it's a pity that such a good TV series is not filmed because they don't have money. You can think of a way."
This prodigal girl is really not in charge of the family and doesn’t know how expensive it is.
Where is this sponsorship worth tens of thousands or tens of thousands? It only takes 5 episodes to sponsor 3 million, and there are 16 episodes left in the future, which can not exceed 10 million.
10 million was not a small amount in 1986. Chen Xia was rich, but this money was not given so free.
Yes, it’s really free. At most, it’s just a subtitle at the end of the TV, and I’m especially grateful to anyone.
You cannot share copyright, and even overseas sections will not give it to you.
You can't unspoken actresses. In the 1986 "Journey to the West", all the actresses are serious actors from regular theater troupes. They are all artists. Do you like you, a rich man?
Of course, except for big stars like you, Gong Xue.
The super big news in the mainland entertainment industry in 1986 is that Gong Xue, known as the No. 1 beauty, was involved in the scandal of some "second generations" in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
The explanations of the "second generation" afterwards and the descriptions in their diaries were naturally unsatisfactory. Of course, Meimei Gong firmly denied them, and later went directly to the country to hide from the limelight and quit the film industry since then.
Chen Xia doesn’t know if there is anything wrong. Anyway, in the entertainment industry, cough cough, Zhang Baizhi made his debut in purity, but the result is.
Chapter completed!
