In response, the Huai'an Municipal Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism Bureau responded that Huai'an West Amusement Park is actively contacting the game company to strive for the implementation of relevant cooperation activities.
Literature usually has not only national boundaries, but also "place of origin".
From the Songs of Chu during the Warring States Period to contemporary rural novels, the geographical attributes of famous works can be seen with the naked eye. The game "Black Myth: Wukong" is famous all over the world, but its source "Journey to the West" has a strong "Suzhou flavor". In the "Jiangsu Library" of Phoenix Publishing House, "Journey to the West" is prominently listed, becoming a regional reading. So, what is the connection between "Journey to the West" and Jiangsu?
Wu Chengen from Huai'an is considered to be the author of "Journey to the West". The existence of this celebrity makes the connection between Jiangsu and "Journey to the West" irreplaceable. Of course, there are still disputes about the author of "Journey to the West". Some scholars point out that the author is actually Li Chunfang of Xinghua, a famous person from Jiangsu. Regarding the writing process of "Journey to the West", we have to mention Huang Zhouxing, a scholar in the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty. He made drastic improvements to the Ming Dynasty traditional version of "Journey to the West", and the contradictions, repetitions and procrastination in the plot of the original book were swept away. Light, in addition, the life story of Tang Monk is added to form this high-quality version of "The Book of Journey to the West". This version is used in "Journey to the West" published by Zhonghua Book Company. Huang Zhouxing is from Nanjing, and like Wu Chengen and Li Chunfang, he is still from Jiangsu.
This masterpiece, which can be called "China's most famous literary work", is not only associated with Jiangsu in terms of its author, but also in its publication and distribution. The earliest extant version of "Journey to the West" is "Journey to the West with Newly Engraved Official Characters", commonly known as "Shidetang Edition". Shidetang was a bookshop in Nanjing during the Ming Dynasty, and it was from here that the story of "Journey to the West" became popular throughout the world. world.
In terms of text content, "Jiangsu Elements" also stands out. We know that most of the geographical information in "Journey to the West" is fictional, and there are very few real place names, but two cities in Jiangsu, Haizhou and Xuyi, appear in it. Master Xuanzang, the prototype of Tang Monk, was from Luoyang, but the author set Tang Monk's origin as Haizhou (today's Lianyungang). The original book also rarely depicts Xuyi's landscape. You must know that there are only two cities in the book with such "treatment", and the other city is Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, we can also infer that the "Jiangzhou" where Monk Tang was born mentioned in the book is actually Zhenjiang, Jiangsu. In fact, the scene in the CCTV version of "Journey to the West" where Tang Monk was thrown into the river by his mother was filmed in Zhenjiang.
The language expression of the text is also inseparable from Jiangsu characteristics. There are many sentences in Jianghuai dialect and Wu dialect in the book. The Mandarin of the Ming Dynasty was actually the Jianghuai dialect spoken around Nanjing. For example, the puzzling word "tick" appears in the original work. In fact, it is very common in Jianghuai dialects such as Nanjing dialect and Nanhua dialect, and it means that things are not done quickly.
The connection between "Journey to the West" and Jiangsu goes far beyond the original work. The CCTV version of the TV series "Journey to the West" is well-known to every household, and Suzhou has become one of the most important filming locations for the TV series. Viewers can discover scenic spots such as the Humble Administrator's Garden, Master of the Nets Garden, Panmen, and Luzhi Ancient Town in the TV series. The original work has also spawned a large number of art films, the most typical of which are the "Sun Wukong Trilogy" - "Havoc in Heaven", "Ginseng Fruit" and "The Golden Monkey Conquers the Demon". Wan Laiming, Zhang Guangyu, and Yan Dingxian became the directors or creators of these works, and they are all from Jiangsu. The artistic image of Sun Wukong we see today was actually designed by Yan Dingxian, a native of Wuxi.
In Jiangsu, "Journey to the West" can also become a highlight of the cultural and tourism industries. From Lianyungang Huaguo Mountain Scenic Area to Guannan Erlangshen Cultural Heritage Park to Huai'an West Amusement Park, scenic spots with different styles have created a three-dimensional cultural image of Journey to the West. Interestingly, there is also a world-famous Wukong Temple in Jiangyin, where the relics of the Great Sage of Sizhou were unearthed. Although this temple has nothing to do with Sun Wukong, it is a wonder that both "Wukong" and "Great Sage" are used as keywords.
The popularity of "Black Myth: Wukong" may have cooled down, but the relationship between Jiangsu and "Journey to the West" is normalized and everlasting. The cultural connotation of "Journey to the West" has long been integrated into the blood of many Jiangsu cities and has become eternal. hot spots.
