My idol is myself

Chapter 130 Wukong【Ask for a monthly ticket】

Many people think that with Xu Wenruo's talent, it will be a matter of time to be on an equal footing with these directors, and there is no big problem if the time is advanced a little bit. After all, the reason for questioning Xu Wenruo is that he is too young, not that Xu Wenruo is not good enough.

But even so, there will still be many people who will question Xu Wenruo based on his age. After all, this is people’s habitual thinking. He has no hair on his mouth and cannot do things well, unless Xu Wenruo can produce irrefutable achievements, just a good rating and word of mouth. web dramas are not enough.

As the date of the show's launch is approaching, many people's discussions on Xu Wenruo have gradually shifted from his role as a director to his not releasing a new song for so long.

"Sigh, Xu Wenruo is gone forever as a director, probably he has forgotten his identity as a singer."

"The last time I listened to Xu Wenruo's new song was half a year ago. If Huayi of Dog Day hadn't wanted to engage Xu Wenruo, Xu Wenruo would have released a lot of new songs a while ago."

"Indeed, if Xu Wenruo can enter the singer's finals, then at least ten new songs can be heard. Thinking about it this way, we have lost a lot."

"Why hasn't Xu Wenruo released a new song yet? This time, we seized the opportunity and we all left a message under his Star News, asking him to release a new song soon."

"I want to watch Xu Wenruo's film and television dramas, and I also want to hear Xu Wenruo's new songs. It would be great if Xu Wenruo could release more new songs between filming."

"Hahahaha, isn't it a bit too much, even the donkeys in the production team dare not do that."

Xu Wenruo also saw these fans' messages under his Star News, but Xu Wenruo did not choose to reply to them, but stepped up to produce new songs, preparing to surprise these fans.

Xu Wenruo completed all the production of the new song the day before the program went live, and suddenly uploaded Starcom music without any publicity.

Some fans turn on the Xingxun video player and look for Xu Wenruo's songs from the list, but suddenly find this unexpected surprise, so many people quickly gather at the bottom of Xu Wenruo's new song page to comment, just a few minutes, the bottom The number of comments is known to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Hahahaha, come and see what I found? A new song!"

"In my lifetime, I can still see Xu Wenruo's new song, tears in my eyes."

"This new song was released so suddenly that there is no news at all, but I like the surprise you gave me."

"Hey, I just finished urging Xu Wenruo a few days ago, and I saw a new song today. Xu Wenruo's movements are really fast."

"I just like Xu Wenruo's punctuality. I hope there will be more surprises like this."

Many fans of Xu Wenruo were surprised by the news of his release of a new song. After listening to Xu Wenruo's new song, their doubts did not diminish at all. Even just looking at the title of the song, doubts emerged in their hearts.

"Wukong"?
Is it the Monkey King in Journey to the West?But what does this have to do with Xu Wenruo?Buried in their doubts, fans began to listen carefully to this long-lost new song.

"The moon splashes on the galaxy, the long road is long,

The wind and smoke are exhausted, and the shadow is fading;
Who told me to be extraordinary,
Who makes me love-hate dilemma,
Later, the liver and intestines were broken. "

The deep and soothing prelude sounded, and Xu Wenruo's voice slowly emerged, but his slightly sad bass added a touch of melancholy to the song.

Hearing this, Xu Wenruo's fans actually didn't understand the relationship between Xu Wenruo's song and Monkey King, because in everyone's impression, Monkey King is a monkey who is not afraid of anything, this sad and melancholy tone is in line with The image of Tian Dasheng is too different.

"The fantasy world is in the sky, let go of grievances and grievances,

Abandoning enlightenment and delusion, the six dusts remain unchanged;
And angry and sad and mad,

Humans, ghosts or monsters,
However, there is a demonic debt in the heart.

Call a Buddha, turn back without shore,

Kneeling one person as a teacher, life and death have nothing to do;

The real and false realms of the floating world of good and evil,
The dust is scattered and gathered indistinctly,
Difficult! "

Xu Wenruo's singing method is very unique, as if he is singing, but also as if he is narrating. This unique singing method comes from the narration of the drama, and has a unique charm.

Following Xu Wenruo's singing, an image of Wukong also appeared in everyone's hearts, but this Wukong was different from the usual image. For some reason, the monkey's back looked very bleak and seemed very sad.

"What do I want this iron rod for,
What if I have this change;

Still uneasy, still anxious,
The golden hoop is on the head, and if you want to talk, you will stop.

I want this iron rod drunk dancer,

I have this change and confusion;

Trample the Ling Xiao, be reckless and reckless,
The evil ways of the world are dangerous, and there is no escape after all.

This stick will blow you away. "

All the foreshadowing broke out in the last one. Xu Wenruo's voice had a sense of uncontrollable anger, but he was very restrained. That kind of angry but forcibly suppressed emotion made Xu Wenruo vividly displayed.

What impressed all the fans the most was the choking tone of the last sentence. This change of tone is simply the highlight of the whole song. It not only makes the image of Sun Wukong fuller, but also sublimates it to a certain extent, making people remember it. There lived a monkey full of sadness.

"I don't know why, after listening to this song, my heart is very sad, like a stone stuck in my heart."

"I believe there must be a sad story behind this song, but I don't know why Monkey King is so sad."

"What's the use of this iron rod! Hehehe, it is of great use."

"I know it even if you don't tell me, it must be hitting Huanglong with an iron rod, right?"

"It's not right, I have to get off the bus, this is not the bus to the kindergarten."

"Wooooow, it's obviously a very serious song, why are you so dirty."

After listening to the new song, many fans naturally shared it with their friends, so Xu Wenruo's new song "Wukong" quickly became popular without any promotion.

After more than half a year, the news of Xu Wenruo's release of a new song was widely circulated on the Internet, and many people were also moved by the artistic conception of the song.

The lyrics of this Wukong song are very simple and straightforward. The lyrics of the whole song don't even tell a complete story, but this style leaves a lot of blank space for the audience.

After all, Sun Wukong is a well-known mythical figure. Everyone grew up watching the story of Journey to the West. Many people's childhood idols are the kind of grandson who is not afraid of heaven and earth.

When I was young, I worshiped Monkey King even to the point of obsession. Even an ordinary wooden stick can be waved for a long time, and I like to imitate Monkey King when I walk.

So when they saw the title of the song "Wukong", many people thought it would be an exciting music, but they didn't expect it to be so depressing. The monkey grandson who can't move at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain.

Everyone admired the majestic Monkey King, but no one was paying attention to whether this monkey was really happy, nor did they care about how each of these things touched his mood.

And Xu Wenruo gave everyone an answer, that is, the monkey's heart must not be happy, his heart must be full of suffering and helplessness, the transformation from Monkey King to Monkey King has been full of choices and struggles.

"Oh, I want Xu Wenruo to tell me the story of why this monkey is so sad."

"Xu Wenruo will definitely not release such a song for no reason, he must want to express something."

"Is it implying that he is in a state of being blocked? Then he wants to beat those who want to block him to death with a stick?"

"Why isn't Xu Wenruo that monkey? At the beginning, he was very popular, just like the Monkey King who made troubles in the Heavenly Palace, but now he is blocked and suppressed under Wuzhi Mountain."

"You all seem to be easy to understand. If you want to know the story behind it, then you can just ask Xu Wen. Why do you choose to guess?"

So many people went to Xu Wenruo's Star News to ask questions, but Xu Wenruo still didn't reply to them. Only the answers he got would be more interesting.

With the launch of "I Am an Actor", many people opened the video immediately. Many fans of Xu Wenruo did not get the source of the story of the song "Wukong", so they flocked to the show to find out. .

Many eager fans skipped the part where the actors introduced themselves, and went directly to the presentation of the works of the next four directors.

"Sure enough, Xu Wenruo originally wanted to shoot a segment of Journey to the West, no wonder he was able to write this new song."

"The four directors reproduced the four masterpieces respectively. I have to say that this part still attracts me very much."

"I can't wait to see Xu Wenruo's Journey to the West short film. He also specially composed a song for this short film. He really cares about it."

"Why do I feel that Xu Wenruo and director Wang Tie seem to be a bit contradictory? Their words are full of gunpowder inside and out."

"You may not know that the two of them had a feud before. Director Wang Tie specifically criticized Xu Wenruo before, but Xu Wenruo ignored him at all."

After watching Water Margin choreographed by director Wang Tie, and then watching Xu Wenruo's adaptation of Journey to the West, the audience couldn't help but wonder why Xu Wenruo seems to have more profound director skills than Wang Tie.

One is a director who relies on his experience to forcibly earn his money. This is the only thing he can do over and over again. Directors are not an industry that can be popular all over the world with one trick. It has a very high level of creative skills for directors. It is a pity that Wang Tie has already seemed a bit self-sufficient.

But Xu Wenruo is much bolder. Not only did he boldly make changes, he even made major changes in the way the actors perform.

This exaggerated way of acting is indeed suitable for the tastes of young people, especially this relaxed and funny way to tell a classic story, which makes them feel very novel.

With such exaggerated acting skills, even the slightly embarrassing acting skills of some actors seem to have a special taste, and even Zhao Tianyuan's dull acting skills are perfectly integrated into the characters.

Zhao Tianyuan plays the monkey grandson of Huaguo Mountain. He admires the Monkey King very much, especially he is familiar with the story of the Monkey King's battle against a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals. The past events of the Great Sage of Heaven made Sun Wukong's heart gradually firm up.

Monkey King chose to make a break with his past. After leaving Shuilian Cave again, he is no longer the lawless Monkey King, but the Monkey King who will protect his master and go to the west to learn scriptures.

This kind of story of looking at Monkey King from different angles gave the audience a novel feeling, so when Xu Wenruo and Wang Tie argued later, it was of course self-evident who they were on.

On the one hand is Wang Tie, who changes every film but on the other hand, and on the other is Xu Wenruo, a cutting-edge director who is young but constantly innovating. The audience chooses to vote with their feet, and Xu Wenruo is basically guaranteed to win.

After all, the audience likes to watch novel movies, Xu Wenruo can satisfy their requirements, but Wang Tie can't satisfy them at all.

"Father, Wang Tie hasn't made any progress for so many years. He is still the same. Since the movie "Underworld" was made, he has been going downhill."

"The Water Margin composed by Wang Tie really doesn't have that kind of heroic flavor, instead it has a petty air, which may have a lot to do with his frequent filming of underworld gangsters."

"I like Xu Wenruo's adaptation of Journey to the West very much, especially Tang Seng. He is so talkative, let alone Monkey King, I want to beat him up."

"Hahahaha, the words of these people are so interesting. Xu Wenruo is really talented in making Journey to the West such an exaggerated comedy."

"Fuck, after listening to director Jiang Kai's narration, I realized that this is what the short film wanted to express. No wonder the song "Wukong" is so sad."

"A friendly reminder, Xu Wenruo's new song and short video are more delicious when eaten together."

After watching the works of the four directors, these audiences suddenly felt something was wrong. Obviously Xu Wenruo was the director with the most junior experience among the four, but why after watching the short films, they were only impressed by Xu Wenruo's short films, but not for the others? How many people have no impression of their works?
But if they think about it carefully, they will understand that the Four Great Classics are stories that everyone is familiar with, so once they are filmed in a regular manner, it is easy to lose their own characteristics. After all, audiences have seen many versions of the Four Great Classics TV series.

However, among the four, only Xu Wenruo made a major breakthrough. He chose to show this classic story with a performance style that has never been seen before. Of course, he can stand out among the four works. The audience is deeply impressed by Xu Wenruo's short film. It's not a strange thing either.

This does not mean that Xu Wenruo's directing skills are necessarily far better than the other three directors. Xu Wenruo still lacks skills, but Xu Wenruo excels in novel ideas.
