Chapter 514 The linkage between "Fengshen" and "Xianqin"

"You young people have too active thinking, and we old guys are no longer able to keep up. Yue Guan, how did you think of creating these treacherous officials like this?" Yan Guanying asked curiously.

Yue Guan has no airs in the crew of "The Gods". To be precise, Yue Guan has no airs in any airs in any movie. When he doesn't film, he also likes to chat with people very much.

Especially chatting with those old actors.

Yan Guanying has seen him a lot. Although he is not very familiar with Yue Guan, he doesn’t feel any distance. He has doubts in his heart, so he asked him out on his own initiative.

Yue Guan explained: "Because Fei Lian was actually not a treacherous minister in history, including Fei Zhong and Eilai. Fei Zhong, Fei Lian and Eilai were both descendants of Bo Yi. Bo Yi's surname was Ying and was the leader of the Dongyi tribe. Because he was a meritorious in assisting Dayu in flood control, he was enfeoffed in Feidi. Because his second son Ruomu was born in a gang and had no inheritance rights, he became a civilian. In order to show that he was different from other civilians, he regarded Fei as his surname. This is the origin of Fei Zhong's branch.

During the Jie period of Xia Jie, Fei Chang, the ancestor of Fei's family, abandoned Xia and returned to Shang, drove for Shang Tang, and participated in the famous Mingtiao Battle. After the war, he was rewarded by Shang Tang and was qualified to be an official. Although he was just a small official who drove, he finally earned a job for his descendants. This is how Fei Zhong was qualified to serve King Zhou and was promoted to the Central Doctor.

At that time, the Shang Dynasty was basically hereditary. Theoretically, Fei Zhong had to be a driver for King Zhou because his ancestors drove for King Shang. However, King Zhou violated the ancestral system and promoted Fei Zhong to become a junior doctor. This was a big deal at that time, infringed on the rights and interests of those traditional aristocrats and broke a certain class monopoly. Therefore, Fei Zhong was disliked by the nobles and was slandered as a treacherous minister.

Fei Lian and Elai had a lower origin than Fei Zhong. These two were father-son relationships, not brotherly relationships mentioned in "The Investiture of the Gods". After Fei Lian's ancestors moved to the Western Rong, they experienced several generations of inheritance. Although they had some ups and downs during this period, overall, they were still very unsatisfied. When Fei Lian, Elai's generation even fought with the army of the Shang Dynasty, and unfortunately lost, becoming the captive of King Zhou.

Logically speaking, if you become a prisoner, you will be the only end up being a slave. However, King Zhou is determined to reform and does not discriminate against slaves. He found that Fei Lian is good at leaving and evil means he is very capable, so he pardoned their sins and kept them by his side, allowing them to be officials. Among them, evil means he is his guard, and Fei Lian goes out to do his job for him. This is not consistent with the tradition, so Fei Lian, like Fei Zhong, became a treacherous minister who is "not happy with the nobles."

But it is ridiculous. After Jiang Ziya and others led a large army to attack Chaoge, Ei Lai died in battle to protect King Zhou. Fei Lian was working for King Zhou in the area of ​​Taiyue Mountain. After the matter was done, he heard that King Zhou committed suicide, so he built an altar on Taiyue Mountain to worship the sky and reported to King Zhou that the mission had been completed. After the sacrifice was completed, he committed suicide and died for his country.

In this way, those who died for their country were regarded as treacherous ministers, and King Zhou's biggest opposition secretly colluded with King Wu of Zhou and betrayed the interests of the Shang Dynasty. Weizi, who made contributions to surrender, became a famous wise man.

History is just a little girl who is dressed up, and the winner is just a king. I am not filming "The Investiture of Gods" to popularize history for the audience, but since I have the correct historical image, I am too lazy to use the image they were smeared in "The Investiture of Gods", which is not fair to them."

In fact, Yueguan was not disgusted with the Western Zhou Dynasty.

The king succeeds and the enemy loses, King Zhou loses, and Ji Fa wins, and it is no problem to say that Ji Fa is better than King Zhou, and the victorious person is right to say anything.

But the same thing is true, there is no need to be embarrassed.

Yue Guan’s purpose in filming “The Investiture of the Gods” was not to whitewash King Zhou, nor to whitewash the treacherous ministers on King Zhou’s side. However, compared to Ji Fa, King Zhou obviously has more room to dig.

That's why King Zhou was decided to be the protagonist.

Of course, the people on King Zhou's side could not be all treacherous officials.

According to historical image, it is far easier for audiences to accept than to create a few treacherous ministers.

After hearing Yue Guan say this, Yan Guanying nodded. In fact, he had checked these information before, but he did not know as detailed as Yue Guan.

After all, he only played Fei Lian, a slave who was very loyal and profitable.

If you want to play this role well, you don’t have to figure out all the background information about Fei Lian.

Yan Guanying was not interested in Fei Lian’s background information. What he was really interested in was Yue Guan’s imagination.

Because Yue Guan used Fei Lian as a person to link "The Investiture of God" and "The Immortal Qin".

"Did Fei Lian and Qin Shihuang have indeed been related in history?" Yan Guanying asked curiously.

Yue Guan smiled: "There is really one thing. In fact, Fei Zhong and Fei Lian's ancestors were both surnamed Ying, but Fei Zhong only had a relative with Qin Shihuang, not from the Qin Shihuang lineage. He died in battle, and had no descendants, and could not be the ancestor of Qin Shihuang. Although Fei Lian committed suicide, he had a young son. This branch was continued and passed to Meng Zeng, passed to Zaofu, not son, and divided into Zhao and Qin veins. This branch of Qin Shihuang came here. Not only Qin Shihuang, but also the royal family of Zhao during the Warring States Period was also descendants of Fei Lian."

Yan Guanying has gained knowledge.

He will definitely not be idle to study these materials.

"I thought you could open your brains casually, but I didn't expect there was a lot of connections behind you." Yan Guanying said.

Yue Guan chuckled and said, "Of course there are some ideas to open your mind, but my requirement for the screenwriter is to try to fit history as much as possible. Opening your mind on the basis of history is the myth that belongs to our Dragon Kingdom, so that the audience will feel stronger indulgence."

"I have ideas, especially the title of Fei Lian." Yan Guanying praised: "After Fei Lian's death, he was named the 'The Lord of Ice Dissolution and Dissolution'. Ice Dissolution and dissolution, and in the end it was Fei Lian's descendants who dissolution the Zhou Dynasty. This can also be linked. Yue Guan, you are really interested."

Yue Guan looked at Yan Guanying in surprise.

This - he really didn't connect.

If Yan Guanying hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have noticed it yet.

After hearing what Yan Guanying said, Yue Guan blinked.

It makes sense.

Although some hard connections are not important.

It was indeed Qin's sweeping across Liuhe and finally ending the rule of the Zhou emperor.

You can really contact me.

The third part of "The Investiture of the Gods" was to explain that Fei Lian committed suicide and died and was named "the god of ice disintegration" after his death.

Now we can add a sentence, Fei Lian made an oath: future generations will definitely end the Zhou Dynasty and avenge the Da Shang Dynasty.

Then, the beginning of "The Immortal Qin Empire" explains that the Qin royal family was a descendant of Fei Lian.

Everything is connected.
