Feature Shows Extravaganza - Chapter 922
Keita Amamiya came quickly.
There was no activity in the afternoon, and Meng Lang led the two into a secluded and elegant tea room and talked about his ideas.
“I have no problem…”
Min Gui first agreed. AgitΩ is not over yet. There is still some time before the new knight airs. He can go to America.
But Keita Amamiya was embarrassed.
As a screenwriter, Min Gui is only responsible for the plot and it is easy, and he may be relieved in a month or two.
But he can’t!
He is the director, responsible for all aspects of the crew. If you go to the United States to film, you will have to delay at least half a year.
What about Jawol?
The skeleton of the crew was set up, and the leather case was also commissioned by PD company to design it. Wasn’t his previous preparations completely overwhelmed when he left?
“It’s all voluntary!”
If Keita Amamiya doesn’t want to go to the United States, Meng Lang will not force him. After all, he also knows that twisted melons are not sweet!
“Thanks for the love!”
Mr. Amemiya solemnly said: “Although I am very interested in the Super Team series, I want to fulfill my dream. Sorry, President Meng!”
“It’s okay!”
Meng Lang is a little regretful though. , But did not show it.
Since the fetters of “Amamiya Toshiki” couldn’t be made together, it had to find another candidate. Meng Lang is more inclined to Robert, this is the “backup” candidate he has decided before.
Although the cooperation was not negotiated, this was the first time the two met, and there were many topics to discuss.
“Can you introduce
Yalang to me?” Meng Lang turned his teacup, thinking: “I heard Shirakura and Omori mentioned it, but they didn’t introduce it carefully enough.”
“Yes!”
Mr. Amemiya did not decline, he could see that he was very interested, and used this topic to explain his idea in detail to Meng Lang.
“The Wolf” is a special drama!
But its subject matter is not a common “sci-fi” drama but a relatively rare “magic” drama.
It also contains elements of “horror”!
Amemiya ingeniously designed a monster hidden in the dark, a monster called “Hora”.
This monster is born out of human evil thoughts and desires, and feeds on human souls and bodies. The human being possessed by Hora has no meaning to save except for the soul.
The so-called “Golden Wolfhead Knight” is the hero against Hora, and the protagonist of this game, the Lord of the Rings.
“I want to ask, is Yalang dominated by unit dramas or serial dramas?” Meng Lang asked.
“Unit drama!”
Amamiya said distressed: “I’m not very good at it, or I don’t like the serial drama mode.”
“Understood, please continue!”
In fact, this answer is completely in line with the original tooth wolf.
Except for a few works such as the third season and the special episode “Absolute Wolf”, the main TV series of the tooth wolf series is always “unit drama”.
Of course, unit dramas also have main lines.
The main line of Yalang is usually the early and mid-term “unit plot” mixed with clues, and the final few episodes have launched a big battle. The main line push mode is similar to Ultraman and Kamen Rider.
This is also the usual mode for special dramas.
Fanglang’s setting system and worldview background are very huge.
For fear that the president would not understand, Amamiya tried to relay the obscure ideas in his mind in a more straightforward language.
According to him, the story originated from the “yin me”.
Yin ego is a complex of human evil thoughts and desires. With the help of Yin ego, Hora can possess human beings and become all kinds of monsters.
Among human beings, there is a group of human warriors called “Knights of the Ring”. They are armed with swords and guard humans against Hora’s aggression.
The Lord of the Rings are under the jurisdiction of the “Senate”, which is subordinate to multiple areas, and each area has its own Lord of the Rings.
The protagonist Kongdao Gangya, also known as “Tooth Wolf”, is the successor to the title of “Golden Knight Tooth Wolf”.
in short!
Fang Lang is not called “Ultraman” or “Kamen Rider”, but a title. The real name should be “Knight of the Lord of the Rings”.
Worried that the president could not understand, Keita Amamiya gave an example.
“If the Gargoyle represents Tiga, then the Lord of the Rings represents Ultraman! Tiga is one of the Ultraman, and the Gargoyle is one of the Lords of the Ring!”
This is easy to understand.
The Kongdao Gangya family has inherited the title of Golden Knight Yalang for generations. The Gargoyles have a lofty status among the Lord of the Rings, and they are definitely the top Lord of the Rings.
Besides him, there are other knights in the play. They have their own “titles” and armors, and work together to resist Hora.
In fact, in Meng Lang’s view.
The Gargoyle series are very similar to Batman. They talk about “indestructible evil and the unending spirit of fighting against evil.”
Gotham is immortal, and the evil is not end!
Just as Batman wants to purge Gotham’s sins, the Lord of the Rings also want to purge the darkness and eradicate Hora.
But Hora originated from the Yin Ego, the Yin Ego originated from human beings, human beings do not die, Hora will live forever!
[Biquku www.biquku.biz] Coincidentally!
Batman’s protagonist Wayne, the family is rich and powerful, not only has a butler and cool equipment, but also has an extremely tragic past and a heart that is determined to fight against evil.
Kongdao Gangya, the protagonist of the Gargoyle, is also a wealthy family, also has a butler and cool equipment, even the tragic past and the heart to fight against evil are exactly the same.
This is so magical!
Considering that Batman was earlier and American culture invaded neon, this should not be a mere coincidence. Perhaps Keita Amamiya himself is also a “Master” fan.
In terms of setting, Yalang is worthy of being one of the masterpieces recognized by the special photo circle.
The original version of Garang, whether it is literary play, special effects in leather cases, or Amamiya Keita’s unique art style, is one of the best in special dramas.
It’s a pity…
Yalang is good at everything, but the audience is small!
Maybe it’s better in neon, Europe and America. The overseas environment is more acceptable to the dark wind of “fang wolf”.
But in Huaxia… It’s
not that Meng Lang belittles Yalang, he also admits that this work is excellent. But the Huaxia market does not have an audience basis for “adult special photos”.
Obviously it was taken for adults!
But adults will think that special drama? Isn’t that just for children? Take it away, don’t look down!
And the child with the largest audience?
Sorry!
Even the Kamen Rider doesn’t like the Chinese kids very much. Do you really think that the Chinese kids like the fanglang?
I’m afraid they will feel that the Yalang is too deep and dark, no matter whether it is the art style or the plot fight, they doze off.
and!
Even in the neon market, the painting style of Yalang will probably be included in the “restricted” special shooting, and will be reduced to late night broadcasts.
Of course, good works are good works. Even in the late night, as long as the work is good enough, it can make a bloody road.
In this regard, Meng Lang believes in Fanglang.
After all, excellent works can always resonate with the audience. Yalang’s excellence is undoubtedly, unable to stand out from the late night gear, that is a big joke.
Having said that, Amemiya was also a little dry.
While he was drinking tea to quench his thirst, Min Gui, who was sitting on the other side, quietly asked a question.
“Galang’s investment can catch up with the two Kamen Rider TV dramas. The cost is so high, how do you want to recover the investment?”
“This…”
Amemiya was silent for a moment, raised his head and looked directly at Meng Lang and said: “It’s true, I I haven’t considered this problem at all.”
Meng Lang: “…”
Very good!
This is the first producer who dared to say “don’t consider paying back” in front of him.
If it were other works, Meng Lang would not be too worried. But this is Fanglang, can he not worry?
How can I make money without going outside?
If you can’t make money, what should you use to shoot the second quarter, the third quarter, the fourth quarter or even the fifth season? Use love to generate electricity?
Producers can simply pursue dreams.
As an investor, Meng Lang will not be cruel to lose his son’s milk powder money for the illusory “dream”.
“Let me think about it again!”
Meng Lang’s “profitability” request made Amamiya a headache. He also knows that the profitability of Yalang is far inferior to other IP series.
How to make money still needs a long-term plan.
Ignore this request?
Just think about it, this is impossible.
Investors spend money lavishly on you, but that is not charity. The money they burned for you is all counting on you to double it back.
Of course, doubling is impossible.
Meng Lang’s requirements are not very demanding. He only asks for “profits”, and it doesn’t matter how much profit is.
Earning ten million yuan is earning, and earning ten thousand yuan is also earning. As long as he can make money, Meng Lang will never think that there is little money.
Finished talking about Yalang.
Meng Lang took a sip of hot tea and turned his eyes to the silent Min Gui. The meaning is simple, it’s your turn!
As a screenwriter, Mingui is not as stressed as Amamiya. Faced with the president’s question, he introduced it frankly.
It really is Kamen Rider 555!
Min Gui mentioned that he will try something “unprecedented” in this new work.
For example, mechanical style!
“With all due respect, the biochemical aura of Kamen Rider is simply too strong. If you continue to develop this way, you can simply change your name to Biochemical Knight in the future.”
“The biochemical route can’t go far!”
“Only the mechanical route is Kamen Rider. From the audience survey results, this is already quite obvious.”
“I know this!”
Meng Lang nodded, admitting that Min Gui was right.
The two lines of Kamen Rider development, biochemical knight and mechanical knight, each have audiences and supporters. But the survey results show that there are far more fans supporting the mechanical route than the biochemical route.
Mechanization is indeed a big trend!
This is not only the Kamen Rider, but also Ultraman. Many special photographs in the future will gradually follow the route of “armorization” and “mechanization”.
As for why?
On the one hand, the audience likes it, and on the other hand, “toys are easy to sell”!
Yes, toys are good for sale!
The same toy, one mechanical style and one biochemical style, the mechanical style is the best-selling and popular among children. What can be done?
After all, it was the Yankees.
Originally, the special photo circle blossomed.
Fantasy special photo, magic special photo, myth special photo, fairy tale special photo and science fiction special photo, it can be called the golden age of a hundred schools of thought.
The results of it?
Yankee’s Hollywood desperately produces a “sci-fi big production”. Against the background of the cultural invasion of Hollywood, science fiction special camera quietly rises.
Then slowly, people don’t like to watch other types and focus on science fiction special shooting.
This is a big trend!
Meng Lang may be able to produce one or two works and set off a wave of demons.
But as long as Hollywood blockbusters do not decline, he can’t change the situation of “sci-fi special shooting” becoming mainstream.
If you come, you
can settle for it … If you can’t change the general trend, you can only follow the trend and shoot more and better sci-fi special photos, and become a black pig on the wind.
Min Gui’s approach is not wrong.
The mechanical knight can not only cater to the tastes of the audience, but also make a fortune in the derivatives market. It is indeed the best choice.
“Then what do you think the mechanical style Kamen Rider should have?” Meng Lang asked curiously.
Keita Amamiya also looked at Mingui.
As a fan of Kamen Rider, he also wanted to know what characteristics Mingui’s so-called mechanical wind knight should have.
“The first point, cool!”
Min Gui put up a finger and said: “In this era of eyeball economy, it is no longer possible for the fragrance of wine to be afraid of the depth of the alley. The visual effect is definitely the most critical point.” It
makes sense!
In the past, Kamen Rider, even if the special effects pull hip holster had no bright spots, they could slowly retain the audience through their excellent plot.
But now?
Must be cool and gorgeous special effects to attract the audience’s attention, and then find a way to keep them.
Otherwise, no matter how good the plot is, no one is interested.
“Second point, equipment!”
“The mechanical-style Kamen Rider has no superpowers in itself. It relies on equipment to fight monsters. For the design of equipment, it becomes very important.”
This is just a general direction.
For the detailed settings, Min Gui couldn’t say anything for the time being.
However, Meng Lang provided an idea.
“Mechanized Kamen Rider, turned into a belt device, can anyone other than the protagonist himself use it?”
“Ah this…”
Min Gui was stunned, suddenly felt that the president’s proposal seemed quite interesting.
All along, Kamen Rider’s transformation belt, or transformation device. It can only be used by the protagonist himself, they have never considered the use of other people.
If anyone else can use it…
hiss!
It’s quite interesting to think about it!
Seeing that Min Gui had written down this proposal, Meng Lang smiled and said: “Don’t remember, I just said casually.”
“Compared to this setting, I actually want to know. How the mechanized Kamen Rider equipment came from? Of?”
How did it come?
Of course…I picked it up?
Min Gui thought for a while, and asked tentatively: “Alien technology? Future black technology?”
“Can’t artificial manufacturing work?”
When Amemiya heard this, he couldn’t help but interject: “Isn’t it OK to set a genius doctor, or a genius scientist, to research and manufacture these drives?”
“I think it works!”
Meng Lang agreed: “The origin of the drive , It doesn’t have to be so mysterious. But the core components of the drive, such as cards and capsules, can come from a little more mysterious!”
“I understand!”
Min Gui suddenly realized: “For example, Dragon Knight’s card case is worthless. , The card is the core!”
“Yes!” Meng Lang smiled.
This is not only the mechanized knight, the route to take in the future. It is also a PD toy, the key to making big profits in the future.
The era of “drive” belonging to the head of the bottle, can, and can card is finally coming!
