Chapter 612: Chapter 578 Maestro Goes All in_1

Lin Yuan was in charge of casting for "Journey to the West," but this TV drama required way too many actors.

Lin Yuan couldn't possibly pick them all himself, so he had to only focus on the most important roles, or roles he happened to have the perfect actors for.

Like Antarctica.

He picked right away.

But without a doubt, the most crucial role was definitely Sun Wukong!

Now, the selection for this role was interesting.

The company suggested:

Find a renowned actor with adept acting skills to play Sun Wukong.

This wasn't just the company's suggestion, but also the instinctive thought of many people.

However, Lin Yuan thought differently. Rather than focusing on the actor's reputation and acting skills, he preferred to find an actor who had a good understanding of monkeys to play Sun Wukong...

Why is the CCTV version of "Journey to the West" the most classic version?

Is it just because of nostalgic sentiments?

Not just that.
