Who is the director of Journey to the West?

Yang Jie, the famous director of the old version

The Journey to the West was shot by Yang Jie and his wife.

Yang Jie's husband is cameraman Wang Chongqiu, and a new version of the Monkey King's remake of the classic drama The Journey to the West (mainland version, Hongkong version and Japanese version) has appeared in Chedun Film and Television Base. On the afternoon of 30th, a group of media went to visit Zhejiang version of The Journey to the West, with Kelly Chen's younger brother Chen Sihan as Tang Priest, young Peking Opera actor Yang Fei as the Monkey King, and Zhejiang version of The Journey to the West, played by Chen Chong as Guanyin, meeting the media for the first time. Speaking of the Zhang Jizhong version of Journey to the West, the director immediately clarified that we were not following the trend of Zhang Jizhong, he just said that we were allowed to shoot by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. The news that Zhejiang version of The Journey to the West is the only The Journey to the West allowed to remake in Zhang Jizhong has been circulating for a long time. In his interview, he also revealed the preparation process of Journey to the West more than once, but did not see the actual action. However, the Zhejiang version of Journey to the West has turned on its mobile phone in a low profile. Facing the suspicion of following the trend, Dong Li, the general director, expressed some helplessness: We have been preparing the script for more than two years, and they announced that they would shoot it. It is impossible for us to make the script out of thin air in a short time. Later, we asked the producer for verification, and the SARFT only gave an approval to remake Journey to the West, which is the Zhejiang version of Journey to the West. It seems that Zhang Jizhong's version of Journey to the West is just a lot of thunder and little rain. Chen Chong's debut costume was very enjoyable. It has been rumored that Guanyin in the new The Journey to the West was played by Liu Xiaoqing, but we saw Guanyin played by Chen Chong at the scene. When asked if he knew the rumors, Chen Chong said that I was satisfied with the script and my children liked Journey to the West, so I took it. When asked how he played such a costume role, Chen Chong said that it was the first time that I appeared in front of the camera in costume, and I enjoyed it. Moreover, my two children will enjoy watching it, and they can also take this opportunity to visit Shanghai. When they feel good, they will accept it. When it comes to children, Chen Chong's chatterbox will open. If they see me hanging Victoria, they will laugh and say, "My mother is so old, why should she do such a ridiculous thing?" But I believe they will like this TV, and they also know what kind of role I play Guanyin.
