The six-year-old child, who had been competing for thirty years in the hearts of the whole nation, has now become a sleepy and tired figure like a meteor. This drama giant, who was deeply respected and admired by the general public in the past, created a vivid and indelible image of the Monkey King for the audience through his outstanding performance in the 86 version of the TV series "Journey to the West".
At that time, his keen and clever eyes, as well as his smooth and graceful ape movements, all rose and fell to the enthusiastic applause of the audience.
However, in the midst of the endless cheers of the people, the six-year-old boy gradually lost himself, gradually blurring the line between reality and fantasy. He became stubborn and stereotyped, drawing an insurmountable equivalence between himself and the image of the Monkey King, believing that others must not easily imitate or tamper with this character.
His earnest words have extinguished the audience's expectations of him again and again, and even aroused a strong antipathy in their hearts.
Today's six-year-old child is no longer the actor who was once active on the screen and won the applause of the audience with his vivid and interesting performances. In his place, there is a poor man who repeatedly does ridiculous, groaning absurdities.
Looking at the current predicament of this former "national old artist", we can't help but sigh with emotion, how did the once dazzling star step by step degenerate and become infamous?
If you want to look back on the glorious years of the six-year-old child, you have to start from 1986. That year, the TV series "New Ethical Standard-bearer" directed by Yang Jie was like a thunderclap that shocked the entire Chinese TV audience.
This drama based on "Journey to the West" brought together many powerful actors, and after it was broadcast, the ratings were as high as an astonishing 90%, illuminating every corner of the motherland like the sun.
In this drama, the most memorable thing for the audience is undoubtedly the role of Monkey King played by Liu Xiaolingtong. With his profound martial arts skills and outstanding performance talents, Liu Xiaolingtong created a tense and lifelike image of the Monkey King for the audience.
His iconic "Sun Xingzhi" shape, keen and clever eyes, coupled with smooth and graceful ape movements, all aroused warm applause from the audience. It seems that there really is a Monkey King in the world, making it impossible to take your eyes off.
With the excellent interpretation of this role, Liu Xiaolingtong quickly became popular, and became a household name in the blink of an eye.
Even the prestigious Master Liulingtong praised this young disciple after witnessing his outstanding performance, giving him high recognition and praise. In the tide of praise, the six young children stepped into the most dazzling stage of their lives.
The audience witnessed and rejoiced in his gorgeous transformation from obscurity to overnight fame.
However, what is unexpected is that it is this image of the Monkey King, which has fascinated countless people, that has become the source of the predicament of the six-year-old children in the future. After becoming famous, he developed an almost pathological attachment to the character he created.
With the popularity of "Journey to the West" making Liu Xiaolingtong famous, a kind of absurd self-awareness gradually developed in his heart. Driven by fame and fortune, he even began to believe that he was the unique Monkey King, and that no one else could imitate or tamper with this character.
Many film and television works that have borrowed and adapted the theme of "Journey to the West" have been criticized and criticized by him for unreasonableness. Among them, the high-profile comedy "Journey to the West" unfortunately became one of the victims.
This film, starring Stephen Chow, gives Monkey King a new and interesting way of interpretation through clever and creative adaptation. However, the six-year-old child denounced it as "making things up, reversing black and white, and misleading the public".
He strongly opposes the plot setting of "Monkey King and White Bone Spirit Talking about Love" in the movie, believing that this is undoubtedly a serious tarnishing and blasphemy of the classic image he has created. These overly extreme and unobjective evaluations obviously stem from his excessive paranoia and self-boasting about the role of the Monkey King.
What's even more outrageous is that a game company launched an online game set in "Journey to the West", and Liu Xiaolingtong unremittingly filed a lawsuit against the game on the grounds that there was an image of Monkey King who seriously violated him in the game.
Although the court eventually rejected his unreasonable claims, this did not make him realize, but made him more and more addicted to it.
Not only that, this actor who was active on the screen in the past and won the love of thousands of audiences with his vivid and interesting acting skills also exposed his extremely ugly side in a series of events.
The astonishing truth was revealed, it turned out that he had created a lie in front of the media to deceive the public!
At that time, the famous six-year-old boy swore that during a certain filming, he inadvertently broke into a group of "wild" monkeys, and even saluted the monkey king! However, the truth is cruel - it is nothing more than a "show monkey" tamed by humans and tied to an iron chain, which is simply a captive-bred "domestic animal" and not a "wild" animal in the true sense of the word. Such a boastful and exaggerated experience is really laughable.
What is even more indignant is that when the 84-year-old director Yang Jie left us, the six-year-old six-year-old child with deep grief spared no effort to promote her new work at her memorial service, which undoubtedly violated the most basic moral bottom line. Netizens angrily accused this of "mourning hall hype". Since then, the public's image has plummeted, and his reputation has been shattered. This former "national old artist" has become a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone.
In fact, Liu Xiaolingtong's obsession with the role of Monkey King has gone deep into the bone marrow, far exceeding the normal range. As time passed, he became more and more obsessed with the image he had created, and regarded it as a lifelong pursuit. Any depiction and adaptation that contradicts his understanding of the Monkey King is seen by him as a blasphemy and sin against the classics, thus incurring his strong condemnation.
He once resolutely opposed and severely criticized some of the changes made by the famous screenwriter Wu Chengen to the original work of "Journey to the West". Liu Xiaolingtong believes that Wu Chengen has made too many "unreasonable and untrue" tampering and modifications to the original work. This is also understandable if only the adaptation is questioned. However, it is unbearable that Liu Xiaolingtong actually wrote and directed a movie named "Wu Chengen and Journey to the West", which seriously distorted and distorted the real character image of Mr. Wu Chengen.
What's even funnier is that Liu Xiaolingtong also published a so-called "New Interpretation of Journey to the West" book, in which he drastically deleted the content that did not suit his liking in the original work, trying to show the image of the "Monkey King" he created more brilliantly.
In such a state of serious psychological imbalance, it is not surprising that the six young children have committed all kinds of absurd acts. What people see is just a poor man who is confused and confused in Vanity Fair, who has lost himself.
His words are increasingly revealing a strong sense of arrogance and arrogance, and he even acts in utter defiance of basic moral norms and social rules. For example, when the respected late artist Mr. Yan Huaili passed away, Liu Xiaolingtong unabashedly made such arrogant remarks as "We can only remember this distinguished junior brother in my artistic creation", which is simply jaw-dropping! What is even more intolerable is that on Mr. Yan Huaili's memorial day, he did not forget to promote his new work, and without any scruples, he called on fans to actively buy and support.
In the entertainment industry, Liu Xiaolingtong can be described as a notorious "traffic monster". No matter what kind of holiday celebrations, celebrity anniversaries or major national events, whenever there is a chance that it will become a hot topic, he always cleverly seizes the opportunity to attract the public's attention. Regrettably, however, this behavior no longer seems to be motivated by the original intention of promoting good works, but has gradually evolved into a pathological desire for self-expression. What's even more distressing is that despite the hype in the online world to get a lot of clicks and exposure, he has never really shown his down-to-earth public welfare actions.
What people see in their eyes is just a poor old man who will stop at nothing in pursuit of vanity. His actions are gradually falling into a vicious circle, and will eventually lead to an irreparable abyss. Until the end, the six-year-old child still failed to realize his mistakes, but fell deeper and deeper, and became more and more depraved.
