Ruan Ruolin, deputy director of CCTV.

Peng Li whispered to Gu Bei to popularize science below.

Gu Bei had heard of this name in his previous life. Every time he mentioned her, he would be associated with "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Journey to the West". The two dramas can be finally completed and will be broadcast smoothly. This deputy director has released

Have great efforts.

"You're prepared, too?"

Peng Li saw Gu Bei holding a few drawings in her hand, and said that, she also took out the one she prepared.

"I heard from all the teachers talk about the character image yesterday, so I just drew a few pictures."

Peng Li smiled: "You are really good. I said that time was too hasty. I asked Director Yang to assign you another task today. Unexpectedly, you went to the front."

As he was talking, Yang Jie also walked in. Seeing that Ruan Ruolin had arrived, he hurriedly stepped forward and said hello: "Deputy Master Ruan, I have something to do, I'm late."

Ruan Ruolin has a famous good temper at CCTV and is recognized as having no airs. She just waved her hand with a smile.

"Director Yang, everyone is here, let's start."

"Then...you talk about it first."

Ruan Ruolin did not refuse and looked at everyone with a smile: "I know everyone, so I won't introduce myself. The station arranged for me to come and assist Director Yang's work. As for me, I am only responsible for logistics support. For other specific tasks, I still have to do so.

Leave it to everyone to complete. Today I will only listen to it. Director Yang, I will leave it to you next."

I'm very kind, but I can guess what's going on here.

Yang Jie knew it even more clearly that the leaders in the Taiwan area were worried about her and specially arranged someone to come and stare at her.

See through and don't say it out loud.

What's more, except Gu Bei, there are all old people in the table. Knowing that Ruan Ruolin is a practical person, it is better to have her come to take charge, and if you only know how to make empty-handed things, you will be a strong man who can only speak out.

If such a person is really trying to do something, how can he do his work?

I'm afraid that there is only fighting spirit left in every meeting.

Gujiujiujiujiujiu...

Everyone applauded, and Gu Bei also followed.

On behalf of the preparation team for "Journey to the West", Yang Jie welcomed Ruolin and then began what we are going to discuss today.

Continue to study and solve the problems mentioned yesterday.

The first one to be presented is the character in the play.

Although script adaptation is the key, the character image is even more important to make the audience recognize their "Journey to the West" at first glance.

If the audience saw Sun Wukong at first sight, they felt that this monkey was not good, and there would be nothing to say in the future.

The images of the core characters have collapsed, and no matter how exciting the story is, it is still futile.

Not only Sun Wukong, the artistic images of every character in the entire Journey to the West have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but those inherent images are basically on the opera stage, and even cartoons are modeled based on the facial makeup outlined by opera.

What they are going to film now is TV series, and they will definitely not be able to copy it.

"What we are going to shoot now is a TV series, played by live actors and combined with real scenes. A comrade told me before that Sun Wukong must be charmed, otherwise it would not be called art. I cannot agree with this."

Listening to Yang Jie's words, everyone here nodded.

"What we need to do is to create a person who is completely different from the previous artistic image and can be accepted and recognized by the audience."

"Yesterday I invited all the artists in our station, and everyone drew portraits of four masters and apprentices. I just collected them and looked at them. I found that everyone still couldn't leave their own understanding.

Come out, the Sun Wukong drawn by everyone is similar."

Yang Jie said, calling Gu Bei over and asked him to send the portraits to everyone.

Gu Bei also took the opportunity to watch it. As Director Yang Jie said, the styles are slightly different, but the characters cannot avoid the appearance on the opera stage.

"Peng Li, you have also drawn it, take it out and let everyone see it."

"Director Yang! I'll... forget it."

Peng Li felt a little embarrassed, obviously she was unable to get out of her inherent cognition.

"By the way, Director Yang and Xiao Gu have also drawn it. You can take a look at his first."

Well……

Teacher Peng, you are a thief who is not a thief who is not a thief who is a thief!

Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Gu Bei knew that he was going to sacrifice him again.

It was a big show yesterday, and everyone's impression of him became different.

At least there is a little more expectation.

"Xiao Gu also drew it, that's what I have to look at."

"Xiao Gu, take it out and we will advise our staff together."

Gu Bei originally planned to hand it over to Yang Jie in private, but since he had said this, he brought the four portraits of characters he prepared to Yang Jie.

Yang Jie learned that Gu Bei had also painted it, and she felt that she was in a surprise. She did not assign a task to Gu Bei yesterday. When Wang Chongqiu asked someone to help, she did not mention Gu Bei. Unexpectedly, this young man still had a sense of life.

of.

People who are willing to do things and dare to do things are always more likely to be favored by their leaders.

"Deputy Director Ruan, this is Xiao Gu, the newcomer to the art team. Don't be young, active in thinking, and novel in your ideas. By the way, Xiao Gu, I asked you yesterday..."

Before Yang Jie could finish her words, Gu Bei put the suggestions he had sorted out last night on the table in front of her about the adaptation of the original work.

Seeing this, Yang Jie felt even more satisfied: "Deputy Director Ruan, we heard about it during the meeting yesterday. Look, let me give you an idea!"

Ruan Ruolin also looked at Gu Bei, took the report, and read it carefully. There were not many words, but it was very constructive and had clear ideas.

This young man is not simple!

Gu Bei.

Ruan Ruolin remembered this name firmly.

Huh?

Just as he was about to encourage him, Ruan Ruolin heard Yang Jie's surprise and suspicion.

"Director Yang, it's not that Xiao Gu brought another surprise!"

"Deputy Director Ruan, come and come and come and come."

It's indeed a surprise.

To be honest, Yang Jie was disappointed after reading the drawings she got today. She already understood what she said very clearly.

The TV series "Journey to the West" is a real scene, but the characters provided by the artists in the station are still the same. Can't you draw a monkey without placing your face?

Ruan Ruolin was also full of curiosity, and only took a look, he was also attracted.

"Is this to...anthropomorphize?"

Gu Bei praised Deputy Director Ruan in his heart, and pointed out the general direction of the character's shape in one sentence.

That's right, it's anthropomorphism.

The 1986 version of "Journey to the West" in his previous life was a great success and was recognized in all aspects, and the character design made an indelible contribution.

Director Yang Jie and the artists of the crew broke the convention and adopted anthropomorphic method to redesign the external image of each character.

While retaining the original characteristics of the character, make his image closer to the person.

"Xiao Gu, I can understand your idea of ​​breaking the rules, but these pictures of yours... are too far from the characters in the original work, right?"

The question was Ruan Ruolin. She didn't plan to say it today, but after seeing these portraits of Gu Bei, she still couldn't help but feel curious.

"Deputy Director Ruan, you are right. It is indeed very different from the descriptions of characters in the original work, but I think this should be understood as artistic processing."

"After all, if the description of Sun Wukong in the original work is designed according to the original text, it is difficult for Sun Wukong to get close to the current aesthetics of people. Lei Gong's mouth and lonely face are meant to be bulging on the upper part of the face and sharp on the lower part."

"By the way, there is another more detailed description in the book, saying that Sun Wukong has a fur face and a thunderbolt mouth, less than four feet tall, seven high and eight low, two yellow eyes, one bows his forehead, and fangs grow outwards.

Just like crabs, the meat is inside and the bones are outside."

Gu Bei said, taking a piece of paper and drawing it on it. After finishing his words, he also finished drawing it.

"Look, according to the description in the original work, Sun Wukong probably looked like this."

Wow...

Ruan Ruolin only took a look and was frightened by the monkey on the drawing. Her face was wrinkled, her teeth were grinning, her eyes were slim, and her face was full of fierceness.

If Sun Wukong is really designed in this way, he may be able to stop crying when the broadcast is released.

"So what you mean is not only anthropomorphic, but also beautification."

Don't just ask me, now it's a concentrated discussion, not a one-man show for me.

But when the leader asked, Gu Bei had to say that. In addition, Director Yang Jie was full of encouragement in his eyes, so he had to continue.

"Yes, it must be beautified, especially Sun Wukong, who is the core of Journey to the West, wants to portray him as a hero. Before seeking the scriptures, he is not afraid of power, fights against the sky and the earth, and after seeking the scriptures, he is loyal and eliminates demons."
