All-rounder Artist-Chapter 610 - 576: Lin Yuan Commands_1
Little Bright swallowed nervously...
Xiao Hua was excited and trembling...
As the entire dormitory began eagerly inquiring about the title of the song from Little Bright and Little Super, "Wukong" had already sparked countless heated discussions on the internet:
"This song is freaking awesome!"
"Doesn’t this beat ’Erlang’ in terms of how lit it is?"
"When it comes to the influence of primordial chaos, even Xian Yu doesn’t dare to claim victory, but if we’re talking about promotional songs, don’t forget who Fish Papa is!"
"Fish school of tunes!"
"I can’t stop playing this song, it’s so touching I could cry. On repeat, it interprets Wukong in a way that deeply resonates with my understanding of the Journey to the West. Wukong’s pilgrimage to the west was never voluntary."
"Goosebumps!"
"After listening to the song, I had so much I wanted to say, but in the end the Tight-Fillet Spell kept me mute. The last line of the lyrics should be dedicated to the primordial chaos, crush them underfoot with your music and best them with your promotional songs. This single blow will reduce them to ashes!"
"A true representation of Wukong!"
"Some people say this song doesn’t excite them, but instead radiates a sense of tragic heroism and helplessness, and I feel the same way. Regardless of whether the song is exciting or not, it doesn’t prevent me from loving it. The song perfectly blends classic charm and deep emotion, unbridled spirit, and popular appeal. The opera-like singing within the song is just brilliant!"
"Brilliant!"
"I thought that the opera-like shout of ’Buddha’ was the climax, but it wasn’t. I thought ’What use do I have for this iron staff’ was the finishing touch, but it wasn’t either. There was still ’this single blow will reduce you to ashes!’"
"..."
Whether Yang Jian or Sun Wukong is better is difficult to say, as fans of the primordial chaos and Journey to the West will each hold their ground. However, comparing ’Erlang’ to Xian Yu’s promotional song, the difference is clear!
It’s not that ’Erlang’ is bad!
It’s just that ’Wukong’ is too good!
After all, promotional songs are ultimately about the music!
In fact, when many people first saw Xian Yu singing the promotional song for Journey to the West, they had already anticipated this scene. Xian Yu being the lyricist, composer, and singer...
Who can compete with that?
These kinds of character-inspired songs are always quite popular. Therefore, when ’Wukong’ became a hit, many people, even those who had never watched Journey to the West and those not interested in novels, became interested in the TV series. That’s precisely the effect of a promotional song.
In addition,
’Wukong’ also spurred more interpretations of Journey to the West and Sun Wukong, with the public increasingly believing that Sun Wukong’s journey to the west was a reluctant one, and that the Monkey’s eventual transformation into the Victorious Fighting Buddha represented a tragedy.
He lost his freedom.
And was bound by constraints.
The unfettered Monkey King who once caused havoc in the Heavenly Court ultimately ended up shackled, just like the Tight-Fillet Spell on his head. This in itself is a form of compulsion. Otherwise, why did the monsters who had connections go unpunished, while Sun Wukong, who merely made a small mistake, was suppressed under Five Finger Mountain by the Buddha for a full five hundred years?
Yes.
Everyone likes Sun Wukong because they believe he hasn’t committed any unforgivable sins. If they say the Monkey King refuses to be disciplined, then why should the Monkey King be disciplined by these people? Thus it is that both the Heavenly Court and the West were too harsh on Sun Wukong. The master and disciples of Journey to the West are all walking on predetermined paths.

As a matter of fact,
Even scrutinized readers of Journey to the West would find that despite Monkey’s prowess, he never ate humans. Some argue that Sun Wukong’s cannibalism was based on a self-reported passage from Monkey Sun: "Back in Waterfall Cave, when I was a demon, whenever I wanted to eat human flesh, I would..."
Considering the context,
Sun Wukong was merely boasting.
At that time, a White Rat Demon disguised as a beautiful woman was attempting to seduce Tang Monk. Sun Wukong told this story to him primarily to remind him not to be deceived by the demon. Furthermore, he never said he had eaten a human, but repeatedly claimed his fondness for fruits.
The episode in Black Chicken Country,
Included this quote: "Zhu Bajie, eager to intervene, was held back by Monk Tang, who said, ’Let Wukong handle it.’ The Master was very judicious: since childhood, Zhu Bajie had committed killings and eaten humans, exuding a foul aura, whereas Wukong, who had consumed only fruits from the bark of pines and cypress since he was young, emitted a pure aura."
Zhu Bajie had indeed eaten humans.
Of course, this is not unacceptable to the readers. In the world of Journey to the West, where gods and monsters coexist, if humans can eat pigs, then it stands to reason that pigs can eat humans too. There are also demons clamoring about wanting to eat monkey brains.
....
The media was also buzzing with excitement, the war between Journey to the West and the primordial chaos was a news frenzy:
"The showdown between Journey to the West and the primordial chaos promotional songs concludes, ’Wukong’ blows up on launch!"
"Xian Yu’s new song ’Wukong’ sweeps across the nation!"
"Xian Yu assists Chu Kuang, promotional song triumphs over the primordial chaos!"
"Following the blast of ’Erlang’, ’Wukong’ sweeps across!"
"The fans of the primordial chaos fall silent yet again: ’Wukong’ recaptures the fiery spirit of Journey to the West!"
"Chu Kuang, Xian Yu, and Shadow, the three bros will together fight in The Primordial Chaos!"
"..."
The fans of The Primordial Chaos were once again silent.
In terms of novels, The Primordial Chaos was defeated by Journey to the West.
In terms of promotional songs, The Primordial Chaos was again defeated by Journey to the West.
These two blows made some fans of The Primordial Chaos begin to waver.
Chu Kuang, you are amazing!
Xian Yu, you are amazing!
Journey to the West, you are amazing...
If it weren’t for the centennial influence of The Primordial Chaos, facing the united forces of the Three Bros, fans of The Primordial Chaos would have been terrified.
Thankfully, this centennial influence was not for nothing.
Just as "Wukong" was once again adding fuel to the Journey to the West’s popularity, Jin Pei stepped forward!
As the scriptwriter of the new version of the Primordial Chaos TV series, Jin Pei won’t be scared by a little promotional song!
He took another interview.
When the reporter asked, "What do you think about the promotional song of Xian Yu surpassing ’Erlang’ in popularity?" Jin Pei laughed.
The reporters were surprised.
You’re still able to laugh after being reduced to this state?

Jin Pei slightly retracted his smile and said seriously:
"First of all, there is no hierarchy in music. Furthermore, a TV drama consists of not just a promotional song, but also inserted songs, opening and ending themes, and most importantly, the main theme song. To ensure the quality of these pieces of music, we have invited Maestro and several Kings and Queens of Singing. Everyone will know when the TV drama is broadcast in January."
Good grief.
There is no hierarchy in music.
When these words came out, fans of Journey to the West who wanted to retort were worried about whether their own realms were not high enough.
"Moreover..."
Jin Pei casually said, "The quality of a TV drama should not be determined by a promotional song. The popularity of the new version of ’The Primordial Chaos’ after its broadcast will prove the love of the Blue Starian people for The Primordial Chaos!"
This sentence did not surprise many people.
The strongest advantage of The Primordial Chaos is the influence it has built up over countless years!
If the opponent has Xian Yu, when comparing music, The Primordial Chaos dare not be too complacent.
But in terms of TV dramas, The Primordial Chaos is confident!
No one doubts the appeal of ’The Primordial Chaos’ TV series!
All of a sudden!
The fans of The Primordial Chaos regained their spirits.
"What does a promotional song matter, there are a pile of excellent music pieces in the upcoming TV series of The Primordial Chaos. Further, the most important thing for a TV series is its ratings. What can ’Journey to the West’ use to compete with The Primordial Chaos in ratings?"
The Primordial Chaos finally bared its fangs!
You, Journey to the West, are also making a TV series like our The Primordial Chaos?
Dare you compete with us in ratings?
The old version of ’The Primordial Chaos’ TV series once created a sensational rating!
Now.
After many years.
The Primordial Chaos is remade.
Fans of The Primordial Chaos have no doubt that this TV series can once again create a peak in ratings!
The anticipation of countless fans of The Primordial Chaos for the TV series is not faked.
At this moment.
Starlight finally prepared its TV department and started casting actors for the ’Journey to the West’ TV series —
Lin Yuan was chosen as the director!
