As we all know, the shooting environment of Journey to the West is hard. However, after the works spread all over the country, contradictions broke out among the main creative members of the crew. The six-year-old boy was dissatisfied with the director Yang Jie's acting style and isolated her with three apprentices. After ten years, Yang Jie publicly stated that she didn't want to see The Journey to the West, and she didn't wear makeup until she died. So, what happened to the six-year-old boy and director Yang Jie?
In the harsh environment, Qi Xin Heli was actually planning to shoot Journey to the West, and the Monkey King, the first director of Yang Jie, was not a six-year-old boy. Previously, Director Yang selected the Monkey King as the actor in "Making Heaven". Helpless, because Dong Zhihua is the main actor of the Chinese Opera Troupe, he is too busy working in the troupe to shoot Journey to the West.
Later, Yang Dao thought of the famous six-year-old boy. However, when I invited a six-year-old child, the other person had died of leukemia. Finally, there is no way. Director Yang accepted the proposal of the six-year-old boy in The Monkey King of the South China, and tried to see if his other son, the six-year-old boy, could do it. Looking at this six-year-old boy with 600-degree myopia, he was thin and quiet, and Yang Dao hesitated.
When I first entered the crew, Director Yang Jie made it very clear to the six-year-old children, "If you want to play the Monkey King, your guess is still far away, and there are still too many things to learn." A 6-year-old who refuses to admit defeat has worked very hard from the beginning of filming. He is nearsighted, but he has a pair of sharp eyes. He didn't play monkey tricks. He followed his father a little until the practice became perfect.
After the shooting, although Yang Jie occasionally said that some details of the six-year-old boy were not in place, he kept shooting his shots repeatedly, which was obviously not disappointing before. In daily shooting, six-year-old children work very hard in the crew. Whether it is acting or the chores of the crew, he will help when he sees it and integrate with the crew.
In the past four years, no matter six-year-old children, other actors, or director Yang Jie, even family members have been stationed there. Without the applause of flowers, they just work hard every day. When there is no professional machine to hang Weiya, they rely on their enthusiasm and have no scruples.
The Journey to the West was in the middle of filming. Due to financial reasons, it was reported that The Journey to the West would be forced to stop filming. Yang Jie is under great pressure at this time. She decided to release the pre-1 1 set that had been filmed and measure the effect. 1986, Journey to the West premiered on CCTV.
A work that is not optimistic has caused great repercussions after it was broadcast. The first broadcast in that year set a miracle of 89.4% ratings, and the four masters and apprentices in the play were even more popular all over the country. Before the filming of the following story was finished, the crew of Journey to the West received an overwhelming Shang Yan, whose popularity is unparalleled so far.
After he became famous, his position was different. At that time, not only at home, but all of Asia was swept by the journey to the west. Although many people invited them to publicize, director Yang Jie was still in the crew. After all, Journey to the West only filmed the first episode, and there are many scenes behind it, which is very stressful. But actress, can you accept her idea?
In the four years of hard shooting, the efforts and income of the starring actors are completely out of proportion. According to Director Yang's recollection many years later, "At that time, the four of them followed me in filming, and the others left after filming, but they still had to follow the crew and struggled with the reward of 60 or 70 episodes."
"This salary is lower than that of ordinary workers at that time! And we all pay by episode, so we can't shoot five episodes a year, and we have to run all over the country. They are not only filming, but also working part-time in the crew. So busy, everyone can't get a salary of 400 per year. "
After four years of hard life, I finally have a chance to make a lot of money. Who would miss it? While director Yang Jie was busy preparing the sequel, the Monkey King's six-year-old children, Pig Bajie Ma Dehua, Friar Sand and Tang Priest Xu, began to ask for leave. It wasn't long before Yang realized that these people made money by their own fame.
Yang Jie was very angry when she learned that, and scolded them in front of everyone in the crew. However, the six-year-old boy thought that Yang Dao was deliberately embarrassing him, so he took the remaining three people to report her to CCTV superiors. At the right moment, there was a long-standing contradiction between the leaders at that time and Yang Jie, so Yang Jie was transferred from the The Journey to the West crew.
So when I went to Singapore to perform, only four apprentices went to the scene, but I didn't see Director Yang Jie. After many years, Director Yang Jie published an autobiography, detailing people's attitude towards The Journey to the West after filming her pre-episode. Once the shot is finished, the director has no right to control the actors, especially at that time, they have worked hard for many years.
Later, the literature of the sequel to Journey to the West came down. Those people realized that no one could make a sequel except Yang Jie, so they invited Yang Jie out of the mountain. Although Yang Jie hates their work, she can't give up her job and come back to cooperate with them.
The farewell is over, but in the filming of the sequel, the actors of Zhu Bajie, Friar Sand and Tang Priest have all changed. According to Jinan Times, it is because the person being replaced has poor artistic morality and should be replaced. At that time, the Monkey King, the most famous six-year-old boy, had become a classic, and no one could replace him.
Yang Dao and six-year-old children cooperated again to shoot the follow-up, but in the end, their faces and hearts were not harmonious. But for the sake of art, everyone is compromising each other. After the sequel is released, it is not as good as the previous episode. How can a broken-hearted actor create better works?
Afterwards, Director Yang Jie once said angrily when talking about this matter, "I regret making this Journey to the West TV series, especially the starring actors, who turned against me. I don't know why I should do such a thankless thing. " Can a director who regards work as his life say such a thing? Yang Jie must have been mad at that time.
After more than ten years, when the reporter talked about this matter again, Yang Jie said, "Journey to the West is the eternal knot and pain in my heart. I haven't seen you for ten years. I will change when I see it ten years later. " It can be seen that the unhappiness at that time brought much pain to Director Yang Jie.
On April 5, 20 17, Yang Jie died of a heart attack at the age of 88. At the funeral at that time, six-year-old children were the first to arrive at the scene. Not only that, he also recorded a video to thank Director Yang. But in the video, he even took the opportunity to promote his upcoming The Journey to the West. It is really unacceptable and inappropriate.
Conclusion The success of Journey to the West is attributed to everyone. Not only does Yang work hard, but also the main creative and supporting roles are indispensable. But after becoming famous, Director Yang wanted to continue to create better works, but his actors couldn't wait to enjoy the fruits of victory. Different positions will naturally lead to many contradictions.
Now with the death of Director Yang, many grievances have come to an end. How can we understand who is right and who is wrong outside the bureau?
