In the filming team of the 86 version of "Journey to the West", there is oneThe most special "actors".
It appears in almost every episode, but becauseThe mouth cannot be spokenAnd often ignored by the audience.
In order to complete the play, it was injured several times and almost died.
Wait until the day of success,But he didn't enjoy the blessings, but was used as a tool to make money, and no one really cared about him
In the end, you can onlyLonely death in the wilderness stableIt is the "white dragon horse" under the seat of Tang Seng
So, how exactly was this white horse chosen by the crew?How could its final fate be so bleak?
When mentioning the scripture-learning team in "Journey to the West", whether it is the original work, the 86 version of the TV series, or the audience.
will call them all"Master and apprentice four"., but in fact, this impression is very unfair.
BecauseThe white dragon horse that has been following Tang Seng and the horse's hooves are pious to the west, and not just inconsequential props and mounts.
This character has an extraordinary background and a distinct image, which can be called the whole work"Fifth man".
Let's talk about the white dragon horse in the original book first, he wasThe son of Ao Yan, the Dragon King of the Western Sea, there is"The Third Prince of the Jade Dragon".of the title.
In the mythological system of "Journey to the West", although the dragon family seems to be "deceived by everyone".
But in fact, people are in charge of all the rivers, lakes and seas in the world.
A sneeze can determine whether the world is in good weather or disaster, and the strength is not strong.
And Ao Yan, the Dragon King of the West Sea, is one of the most powerful "Dragon Kings of the Four Seas" in the Dragon Clan, which is worthy of the name"Si Yu Da Long God".
As his son,The third prince of Yulong is naturally also the pride of the sky, and he wants the wind to be windy and rainy
However, perhaps because his background was too superior, the third prince of Yulong had a very good personality at the beginningStubborn and capricious
He didn't even pay attention to his old father, and casually set a big fireBurn the orb in front of the Dragon Palace.
The Dragon King of the West Sea, who felt helpless, went to Heaven to sue his son for a crime of disobedience and unfilial piety.
The Jade Emperor was furious and sentenced him to death after 300 beatings.
This is why Guanyin rescued the third prince of Yulong, and asked him to go to the Eagle Sorrow Stream to wait for the person to learn the scriptures, and make a story about his foot strength.
Also, in the originalThe white dragon horse is also often called the "Italian horse", which corresponds to the "heart ape" Monkey King
It can be seen that the meaning behind this character image is very profound.
In the 86 version of "Journey to the West", perhaps to highlight the positive image of the character.
Therefore, the screenwriter adapted the cause of the third prince's burning of the pearl into being deceived by the nine-headed insect and the princess of all saints, so he made an impulsive move.
That is, to delete his naughty side.
and also changed the resounding name of the "Three Princes of the Jade Dragon" to a more approachable one"Little White Dragon".
is also because of this adaptation, so the personality of the white dragon horse in the play has become a little dull, and it has become a character that is easy to be forgotten.
Although it doesn't have many scenes, the crew still took great pains to choose the actors for it.
The role of the white dragon horse is mainly divided into:"Horse-shaped" and "human-shaped".Two parts.
"Humanoid" actorsSoon in place, he is luxurious in temperament and handsome in appearanceWang Bozhao
But find a horseThe divine horse is like a dragon, and there is a spiritual cooperation to shoot, and there is not a single white horse with variegated hair on his body
But it made director Yang Jie very sad.
Because such a horse is one in a thousand, it is difficult to find it for a while, so the crew has also thought of a lot of ways to "make do" temporarily.
For example, find a horseHorses with slightly worse coat color are artificially coloredHowever, as soon as the horse sweats, it leaks the stuffing and becomes spotted and ugly.
In addition, the crew did find some white horses, but they were all thin and small, and they didn't have the taste of dragon horses at all.
Until a year after the filming of "Journey to the West" began.
The crew, who traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers, finally met the real white dragon horse they thought about day and night in Inner Mongolia.
The horseThe god horse is abnormal, and the whole body is snow-white
It is completely in line with the description of "the mane is divided into silver lines, and the tail is jade", and "every time the mountaineering is combined with the green clouds, the howling moon is as smooth as white snow" in the book.
Seeing such a "dream horse", Director Yang was overjoyed.
StillThis horse is also from an extraordinary background like the "Three Princes of the Jade Dragon" in the book
itNot only the horses of the army, and still areThe mount of a local cavalry commander, but you can't buy it with money.
Fortunately, the cavalry commander is reasonable, and he knows that filming "Journey to the West" is a major event with a long way to go.
Then he asked his superiorsremoved the military status of the white horse, and then let the crew take it away.
With the completion of the regiment commander, the white horse became the white dragon horse, leaving the barracks and the high-earth prairie, and following the crew around the bumps.
The filming conditions were difficult back then, and the crew's requirements for shooting quality were not ambiguous.
Not only did the actors suffer a lot, but this white dragon horse also tasted a lot of hardshipsFalls, falls, bleeding and injuries are more common
You should remember it in"Dangerous crossing of the Heavenly River".In one episode, Tang Seng and the others have to walk across the frozen river.
Tang Seng was worried that the cold ice would hurt the horse's hooves, so Bajie suggested "just wrap the horse's hooves with cloth".
However, during the actual shooting, the ice was too slippery and the people could not stand on their feet with their shoes on.
Not to mention being wrapped in cotton cloth and losing its flexible hooves,That's why he got up, and the white dragon horse fell headlong.
For this type of heavy animal, this kind of fall is actually quite serious.
Many horses break bones or are left with old injuries after falling, and they will never be able to stand up again for the rest of their lives, and if they are broken, they will die on the spot.
Fortunately, although the white dragon horse fell painfully, it did not hurt its muscles and bones.
It fluttered bravely and staggered to its feet.
This scene was recorded and preserved, which made the audience both admired and distressed.
For the White Dragon Horse,There are too many such life-or-death situations, but it never escapes and retreats
always encounters mountains and mountains, and wades into dangers in water, which makes 86 "Journey to the West" a complete merit.
It is worth mentioningActor Wang Bozhao who played the "human form" scene of Bailongma in the play
His hard work in the entertainment industry is also the sameIt's hard, and this conscientious white horse is quite a bit of the same taste.
Wang Bozhao not only has excellent appearance conditions, but also learned singing and dancing since he was a child, and when he grew up, he was admitted to the drama and became a professional actor.
But the sad thing is,There are no shortcomings in all aspects, but he can't become popular
After filming "Journey to the West", he finally gained some popularity.
But compared to the actors who played the "master-apprentice quartet",The popularity is still not the same
Maybe it was to try it in a different environment, so Wang Bozhao went across the ocean to the United States after "Journey to the West" was completed.
However,In a foreign country, almost no one asked him to film。After experiencing setbacks, he returned home gloomily with an empty bag on his back.
But he can still only play some supporting roles in China, and he has never been able to become popular.
And in 2004,Wang Bozhao was also injured and hospitalized by actors from the same crew while filming, so to speakMisfortune does not come alone
Until recent years, with the development of the web.
Wang Bozhao's personable film and television image and superb acting skills when he was young gradually gained the attention of the public.
made him a little popular in the late stages of his acting career.
Next, let's go back to the white dragon horse.
In the ending of "Journey to the West", Tang Seng and the other four people were each crowned, either as the Buddha or as the Venerable Arhat, which can be said to be a positive result.
Since thenEnjoy the incense and the scenery is unlimited
On the other hand, the white dragon horse was sent to the "Dragon Pool" in Lingshan to wash off the horse's body and restore its dragon form.
For the White Dragon Horse, this seems to be the best ending, but the next scene is worth playing:
"(The white dragon) flew out of the dragon pool and coiled around the pillar of the Optimus in the mountain gate."
Since then, the white dragon horse has become a pillar in front of the Lingshan Buddha Hall"Living relief".and forever entrenched on it.
For it, which was once arrogant and galloping the world,Lost his freedom, he became a decorative object in the eyes of the Buddhas in the sky
I'm afraid it's not a blessing
Let's take a look at the white dragon horse outside the play, its fate is even more embarrassing.
After filming "Journey to the West" and its sequel,The white dragon horse is also ten years old
It has gradually arrived, which was once handsome and high-spiritedTwilight years, it stands to reason that it is time to enjoy the blessings.
However, it is unbelievable thatIts tragedy is about to begin
After filming, the actors of the crew returned home with a full body of glory, but Bai Longma was homeless.
It was born as a military horseAfter coming to the crew, he was removed from the military and could not return to the team
In the end, Bailongma was sent to Wuxi Film and Television Shooting Base.
Ironically, this is also the place where the costumes and props of the "Journey to the West" crew are stored.
After all, the white dragon horse is still after the completion of the workIt became a discarded "prop".
However, even here, it still does not survive cleanliness, but is sent to tourists to see.
What's even more poignant is that as long as the visitor pulls out a little money.
You can come forward and touch it casually, take a group photoEven ride it under the crotch
The white dragon horse in the play is incarnated as an ornament on the pillar; The white dragon horse outside the play has also become a plaything for tourists.
The so-called "drama is like life".In fact, the life of a horse is full of drama
At this time, several other people in the 86 version of the "scripture learning team" have become popular, and the six-year-old child has become an international superstar in the spotlight.
Xu Shaohua, Ma Dehua and others also traveled all over the world with "Journey to the West", they were respected, their careers were booming, and they were very busy.
At this time, the only one who can still think of Bailongma is Director Yang Jie
She came to the film and television base many times to visit this "old friend" and felt distressed by what happened to her.
For this reason, Director Yang repeatedly told the staff to treat this white horse who has made outstanding contributions to filming.
Although the staff readily agreed every time, they did not change at all for the sake of financial gain, Director Yang couldn't do anything, so he could only cry secretly.
Under such torture, the white dragon horse is getting older and faster, itTeeth are declining and depressed
The pure white coat color becomes, tooSpots, no longer the spirit of the past。In the end, even tourists don't want to come and see it.
In the eyes of some people,The White Dragon Horse has lost its last value
So it was locked up in a remote and dirty stable, eating the coarsest food.
Under such torture, the white dragon horse's health became worse and worse.
FinallyIn 1997, he left the world that had allowed it to run wild, but in the end it was bruised and bruised
Liu Yuxi wrote in "Words to Hurt My Horse":
"Born in the moraine, he is good at galloping, and he has come thousands of miles south to trap Qiu Fu. The green mushroom is not palatable, and the north wind is still the first. Jintai has been flattened and hollowed, and the dragon yuan is from Eryou. ”Judging from today, this tragic description is actually a portrayal of Bailongma's life.
It has traveled thousands of miles to the west and made great contributions to the filming of "Journey to the West".
But when he was done, he was abandoned in a corner, and finally died of illness in a humble stable.
Such a scene is certainly painful, but if the white dragon horse chooses again, I believe it is still willing to go through this difficult journey.
Because it once shared weal and sorrow with Director Yang, who really cared about himself, and achieved an immortal classic together.
And its story will eventually be remembered forever by generations of audiences.
