Feature Shows Extravaganza

Chapter 179 I’m really doing it this time!

Ratings are up.

After ANB's special program was broadcast, more and more children became interested in Kamen Rider.

This is also to be expected.

Speaking of the ratings data, the Cavaliers have been suppressing Tsuburaya since returning to Manchester.

Showa Knight's special effects, plot and even the leather casing are far inferior to those of Tsuburaya next door, but the ratings are high, and you can't accept this.

The specific reasons are difficult to pinpoint.

Olympus fans will remember the Showa series of the past, discuss the three major issues with others with relish, and play jokes about Zoffie's that adult.

But Knight Chef rarely remembers the Showa series, and even automatically ignores the Showa Knight series when recommending games to newcomers.

It just so happens that in these two series, Ultraman's ratings are not as good as Knight's.

Confused?

If I have to explain it, one sentence will suffice.

Tsubaraya is a craftsman and Toei is a businessman.

Aunt Dong doesn't have much ambition, as long as she can make money, she won't think about what she has or doesn't have. But Tsuburaya was different. He had endless erotic thoughts. He could have lived a carefree life, but ended up trying to kill himself.

Learning from the lessons of his predecessors, Meng Lang would not make the same mistake. When the Kamen Rider plan was released, he had discussed with Ishimori how to make profits from derivatives.

Second transformation, belt upgrade!

The derivatives of knights are mainly toys, and the main part of the toys is the belt. As long as you make the belt, you won't have to worry about making money.

I won’t mention the original version of the belt of the first generation knight, only the new design. The main body is white, with a round hole in the center. The round hole is covered with a layer of glass and has a fan inside.

This is a light-emitting fan!

On the left side of the belt, there is a special press design. As long as the switch is turned on, the fan in the belt will emit red light and rotate, and the side speakers will also emit transformation sound effects.

The playability is indeed better than the β magic wand.

Tokusatsu transformers are like this, the sense of identity is far greater than the playability. If we really want to talk about playability, Yo-Yo and 4x4 can beat all tokusatsu transformers.

There's no point in being serious.

The design of the belt was completed very early, and the molding and production work was completed before the Spring Festival. It was only until Kamen Rider started airing that it was officially put on sale.

The domestic sales date is the same as that of Neon.

But Kamen Rider has not yet been broadcast in China, and very few children know about this show. Although the belt is on sale, the sales volume is not much. Neon's situation is much better. Because of the popularity of the Cavaliers, belts and related derivatives are selling booming.

Uncle Meng smiled.

Legend of Skyfire continues to be popular.

The broadcast is currently more than halfway progressed, and it is expected that the first round of broadcast will be completed before the end of the month and the replay journey will begin.

In order to continue to build on the existing popularity, Meng Lang, who rarely accepted interviews, had to accept a few interviews.

Don't ask, just ask Wang Binla.

As the leading actor, Wang Bin fell behind a lot in his studies because of his participation in The Legend of Skyfire. After the crew was disbanded, he went back to school to make up for his classes.

The lead actor ran away, and the heroine Ayimu was a pure newcomer who couldn't afford the ostentation. When no one can take the lead, the director has to step in and yell!

You mean supporting role?

Forget it, the actor who plays the White Tiger Warrior Ao Tian has been assigned to a new play and went to Hengdian, and the actor who plays the Xuanwu Warrior... is sad, so don't disturb him.

Speaking of which, he is quite pitiful.

He is obviously a very bright boy, but since he finished starring in The Legend of Skyfire, when people first look at him, they first look at a certain part of his body, and then they look at his face.

Those shameless naughty kids would raise their heads and ask him maliciously.

Big Pigeon! Why aren't you wearing crotchless pants?

In this way, a good and sunny man was suddenly distorted by reality and became an otaku, suffering from extremely serious social phobia.

Meng Lang was ashamed of this.

He, the director, has the main responsibility for things turning like this. If he had been firmer and asked the holster master to repair the holster before shooting, he could have saved the poor Xuanwu warrior.

Of course, sympathy is sympathy, and the bad money that should be corrected must continue to be corrected.

Meng Lang made a special design for the Xuanwu warrior doll.

The Xuanwu Warrior produced by the toy factory authorized by PD is the intact version, that is, the normal version. However, the Xuanwu warriors produced by PD’s own toy factory will have openings and damage to the crotch.

Compared with the normal version, the damaged version not only has no discount, but the price is increased by 100!

Spend an extra hundred and buy a damaged version?

Do you think the damaged version won’t sell?

You don’t understand this. Don’t look at it as a “PD IQ tax”, but consumers just accept it. If you don’t ask, they won’t buy it! In Pengda’s official flagship store, the damaged version sells ten times as much as the normal version.

ten times!

There are so many fools that Uncle Meng is almost exhausted from counting money.

The Xuanwu warriors had contributed so much to Mengzi, and it would be unjustifiable if they did not express their gratitude.

With this in mind, in an interview with the media, Meng Lang said that he would use the sales revenue of the damaged version of the toy to build a two-meter-high Bronze Statue of Xuanwu Warrior. In the future, it will be together with the bronze statues of Ultraman, Kamen Rider and other characters. Join the PD Ancestral Hall to enjoy Mengzi’s incense offerings.

Did the bronze statue speak?

Are you a reporter making trouble?

After all, he is a character who can enter the ancestral hall, so...

The bronze statue will definitely speak! Meng Lang replied without hesitation.

Is this leaving a name in history or remaining infamy for eternity? The reporter thought with gossip.

Mr. Meng, I heard that the filming of Ultraman's theatrical version is about to be finished? When can we meet the audience?

Call me Director Meng!

After first correcting the reporter's title, Meng Lang then explained: The theatrical version has indeed been filmed, but our art director Wang Kui felt it was not possible and ordered it to be reshot until the effect is satisfactory to him.

Is it so harsh?

Meng Lang nodded and said, Yes, Director Wang's original words are that if the film is not good, you would rather lose everything than put it in a movie theater to cheat money. This is what a filmmaker should persevere, and it is also what we should do. It’s the foundation of film and television.”

well said!

After the reporter left, he wrote Meng Lang's dirty words intact into the article.

Then Meng Lang was sprayed.

Take a look at your popular movie and ask in your conscience, is it a money-cheating, bad movie?

Xiao Meng? He is a businessman selling toys, but he knows nothing about movies!

Let's wait until he wins the best director before he can say these things. Is it true that filmmakers are persistent? Is he worthy of saying this?

He tore Meng Lang apart with his hands and kicked Pengda with his feet. TV movie, no flowers allowed!

Regarding Pengda Film and Television's high-profile entry into the film industry, the attitudes of peers are generally disparaging. There are occasionally a few voices of praise, but they are both outright praise and derogation. It seems that if you don't step on Meng Lang, you are not a qualified filmmaker.

This made Meng Lang angry.

How can the little overlord of Jiangchuan endure this grievance!

A blockbuster movie with a box office of RMB 800 million is still not enough to stop these thieves. Do you have to force Mengzi to win the annual box office championship before you admit defeat?

I won't be fooled.

Meng Lang was not a young man who would not spend all day thinking about proving himself after being provoked.

The movie does have to be made, but the purpose of making the movie is first to collect box office, secondly to promote derivatives, thirdly to increase the exposure of the IP, and finally to promote ENN.

As for proving yourself? Get a best director? Sorry, Mengzi didn't think about this.

There are already plans for a theatrical version.

The tentative name of the project is Heroes of the Universe: The Three Ultra Brothers! The name is very tacky, but it doesn't matter, it's just a temporary name, you can change it later.

The script was provided by the Pengda writing team. The core of the story is very simple: the Science and Technology Bureau of the Kingdom of Light developed the Capsule Monster, but the evil Salome people stole the technology.

The Kingdom of Light was furious and sent three brothers, Chudai, Zoffi, and Severn, to destroy the Salome people.

The story begins here.

The protagonist is definitely the first generation, Zoffie is a supporting role, and Severn's appearance time is in the final battle at the end of the film, mainly to warm up the TV series.

The war took place near the earth. Most of the Salomeans were wiped out by the three brothers, and only a few remnants escaped. In order to find out these remnants of the Salomeans, star observer Severn stayed on the earth.

In order to protect this Civilian of the Kingdom of Light, Zuo Fei left him with the monster capsule sample provided by the Science and Technology Bureau for his protection.

That makes sense.
