Pokémon's Lord of Fear

Chapter 22 Dead Silence
In just this short sentence, there are several words that would be muted if they were on TV. It can only be said that he is worthy of being rated as the number one foul-mouthed Pokémon by netizens.

This made Teng Shu a little curious. Normally, Kirlia is a relatively quiet Pokémon, but how did this Kirlia become like this?
After chatting with Dean Lillian, Teng Shu left the nursing center and went to the company to supervise the completion of "Dead Silence".

"Boss, are these clips discarded?" A post-production employee came over. His hair had become quite bald, and he exuded the aura of a strong man.

"Let me see." Teng Shu took the tablet and took a look. On it were some bloopers and laughter scenes that could not be used after filming.

Although it seems a bit outrageous that a horror movie would have a laughing scene, Teng Shu thinks it is still understandable.

When filming the scene in The Muppet Theater where Mary Shaw continues to speak with the puppet, there was a shot where Mary Shaw sticks out her long tongue, pierces through the puppet's head and dances out of its mouth, so Teng Shu invited members of the Stunt Pokémon Guild in Kanaz City, and they sent out a big tongue.

Then Jamie's actor looked at the huge tongue sticking out of the puppet and burst out laughing.

Teng Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry so he let the aggrieved big tongue go down. Although the tongue was its strong point, it was really unbelievable to see such a big tongue coming out of the mouth of an old woman.

In addition to this, there were some other shots. After Teng Shu looked at them, he decided on them.

"Edit these interesting shots together and insert them to the end of the movie, and play them together with the subtitles as movie highlights." Teng Shu said naturally, but looking at the blank eyes of the staff, he knew that his idea did not exist in this world.

But it's also true that movies in the Pokémon world tend to end at the end, and there won't be anything else. The behind-the-scenes footage, trailers, easter eggs, and other things that were played out in previous lives are all gone in the Pokémon world.

"Just do as you are told. Remember, as long as the scenes are interesting and make you laugh, that's fine." Teng Shu didn't pay much attention to this concept which seemed very novel in the Pokémon world. This thing might seem very novel when you see it for the first time, but it would be just like that after seeing it many times.

"Okay, boss!" The employee looked at Teng Shu in amazement, then ran back to continue editing the video.

"Everyone, please work hard and submit the film for review as soon as possible. After it is reviewed, I will give you two months' salary as a bonus." Teng Shu clapped his hands, which immediately caused cheers from the employees around him. The professional agent sent by his old father also quickly implemented this policy.

Teng Shu waved his hand, and then went to the post-production department to take a look. The subtitles were being prepared very quickly, and the soundtrack had also been uploaded. It seemed that the movie "Dead Silence" would be able to meet the world soon.

"Boss, do you have any opinions on this promotion?" The professional agent came over and asked softly.

Teng Shu scratched his head. Although this was his first time working in the film industry, he knew the importance of publicity and promotion. There were many movies in the Pokémon world. If he didn't promote it, who would know about his movie?
"Normal.ah..." Teng Shu hesitated for a moment, he thought of the promotional methods of some horror movies he had seen before, for example, a movie with dolls occupying the center position, they would set up a haunted house, and then invite people to clean it, and then scare them, and then post this as a spoof on the Internet to attract everyone's attention.

Because these pranks will be explained afterwards, and a certain amount of financial compensation will be given, and the selection of actors is also very particular, there are many people who like to watch such pranks.

"Let the Puppet Theater start preparing for business. Tickets for visitors to enter during this period are free." Teng Shu has decided that he will bring the same approach over and make the movie Dead Silence a hot search several times, and then gain people's attention. By then, his debut film will make him famous.

Although there will be some investment in the early stage, it is worth it. "Then decorate the mansion where Jamie's father lives in the theater, and then hire some housekeepers to clean it and decorate it." Teng Shu also brought out the spoof promotion method.

Of course, in order to avoid problems, Teng Shu also specifically stated that the person must be in good health with no hidden dangers, and that he must ask for the other party's forgiveness afterwards and provide financial compensation. Of course, the most important thing is to be moderate in the shock and stop when it's almost time.

The agent nodded repeatedly after listening to this. After Teng Shu left, he arranged the tasks and reported to the big boss, Zvochi Mujin.

Of course, this is not to tell tales, but to tell the big boss that the promotion is about to begin.

On the second day, a craze called "Dead Silence" instantly swept the entire Hoenn region. Advertising posters were everywhere, and a tattered Mimikyuu doll sat in an empty theater. Then, an old human finger made a gesture of silence, and the name of Dead Silence was written below.

When Teng Shu went out, he felt unwell.

Looking at the advertisements posted everywhere, Teng Shu inexplicably felt embarrassed, but this kind of publicity was actually normal, just like before some big movies were released, there were overwhelming advertisements, and even people who didn't watch movies knew that such a movie was going to be released.

"Dead silence? What kind of movie is this?" The sound of people's curious discussion reached Teng Shu's ears. Teng Shu silently took out his mobile phone, and then found a communication software he often used. After opening it, there was a Mimicryu lying on the edge and staring at him.

Clicking it will bring up a close option, as well as a view option. Clicking on view will lead you to the dead silent poster.

"Fortunately, at least there is no such crappy advertisement as "Shake It" in this world." Teng Shu breathed a sigh of relief. If the publicity was too excessive, it would seriously damage the popularity of the advertisement.

When Teng Shu thought about the person in his previous life who would jump to the shake ad and splash screen ad of a certain software even if he just left the phone on the table, he had the urge to drag the person into a silent horror movie and have Mary Shaw pull out the person's tongue.

A group chat in the software called [Hoenn Horror Movie Lovers Exchange Group] flashed twice.

Teng Shu clicked in and took a look.

[Aspiring to be a Pokémon Master: Who says not? I woke up this morning with this horror movie in my face! I don’t know which big director shot it]

[Big tongue, that's not allowed: Didn't you see it? It was shot by a man named Teng Shu. I checked, it's a new director]

Teng Shu touched his nose and felt a little embarrassed.
