8 . Journey to the West, or Xi You Ji, is a very famous Chinese TV series. It’s about the great trip of Tang Seng, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing. The series is based on a book of the same name written by Wu Cheng’en in the Ming Dynasty.
The TV series was the first of its kind in China. The team spent about six years, from 1982 to 1988, making it. The production team met many problems. At that time, they only had very simple machines. However, they tried their best to make the TV series well. For example, they spent two months visiting over 60 places across China to find the best places for different stories. They used special machines to help characters “fly”, but no one knew how to do it. They flew to Hong Kong to learn the skill (技能).
Through the team’s hard work, the TV series finally aired in China. It quickly became very popular and about nine out of ten people watched it. It was shown more than 3,000 times. Now, it’s still popular with Chinese people. When people talk about the summer vacation, lots of them think of the TV series. People in other countries also love it.
