Research on the Derivative Development of Super IP in Journey to the West (西游记)

This paper is devoted to excavating the mode of production of the culture of Journey to the West-taking the creators of derivative works of Journey to the West as the main body,and from their free and conscious expression in the process of creation,to find out the path of works’development that conforms to the law of social aesthetics and creation.In the aspect of spiritual expression of the works,the freedom of the artist is reflected in the art producers’emotions,concepts,tastes,and accomplishment in the works,which is related to the artist’s life background,experience,and aesthetics:Wan Laiming(万籁鸣)’s classic national animation,Princess Iron Fan(铁扇公主),is adapted from the version of hundred times of Journey to the West.In addition to the necessary secondary creation in the text and presentation,the theme expression has also been updated and adjusted according to the social background and the author’s emotion;in the text expression of the works,the freedom of the artist is shown in the uniqueness of the work-the form and content of the works come from experience and are different from experience.The idea of building Marvel Cinematic Universe(MCU,漫威电影宇宙)is similar to the framework of“Core Task+Unit Stories”in Journey to the West;A lot of high-quality films and animations such as The Forbidden Kingdom(功夫之王),Panda do Kung Fu(功夫熊猫)and Jackie Chan Adventures(成龙历险记)used western context and culture to create cross-cultural works,but retained unique oriental corpus and images,forming the works’unique style and label.Artists’ability and experience enable them to be acutely aware of the law of artistic creation;they compare and think about different cultural works,and then apply the law to the secondary creation.The artist’s self-consciousness comes from the appreciator’s degree of acceptance of the works;it is reflected in the creator’s reasonable adjustment to the works due to the market,policy,and appreciator’s habits and tastes.The image of Sun Wukong(孙悟空)in the anime film Monkey Kin:Hero Is Back(大圣归来)-a hero of rebirth-has refreshed the audience.From the perspective of cultural studies,this is a negotiated secondary creation of Sun Wukong’s image in Journey to the West based on the interpretation psychology of the audience.In short,to analyze and summarize the ideation of various derivative works is to study the creative laws shared by artists,so as to provide more experience and reference for subsequent creation.
