Pokémon's Lord of Fear

"Boss, I thought you would show some mercy to the other party." Zoroark followed Teng Shu and spoke as he walked.

"What kind of favor do you mean? If we were really good friends and had a good relationship, then I would naturally be willing to help. But we were just ordinary classmates who had never communicated with each other except when necessary. What can I say?" Teng Shu was speechless. He had seen many such situations in his previous life.

If an old classmate who you haven't contacted for many years suddenly comes to reminisce about the past and starts talking about the past, feelings, and things that happened in the past, don't think too much about it. The other party is not intending to reminisce and chat with you, but intends to borrow money from you or send you a wedding invitation.

However, Teng Shu did not expect that the other party would bring Ditto to become a special actor in his movie "Alien".

Moreover, Zoroark felt a little embarrassed to directly fire the other party because the other party was his old classmate, which made Teng Shu feel a little amused.

"Boss, do we need to find a new Ditto to star in the film now?" Zoroark asked. Teng Shu touched his chin when he heard this. To be honest, if we were to find a new Ditto to star in the film now, the time would not be enough since the filming of the film would basically start soon.

The actors and everything were ready, and "Buried" happened to be released during this period, so Teng Shu had plenty of time to carefully polish his work.

"Zoroak, do you think you can do it?" Teng Shu glanced at Zoroak.

Teng Shu did not forget that Zoroark has always been a very qualified phantom actor, so Teng Shu planned to let Zoroark participate. Zoroark's phantom ability is also very realistic. If Zoroark is allowed to perform, there is no need to worry about any other problems. It's just that the staff will still need to hold some things, and then Zoroark will put on the phantom.

Only in this way can we imitate the saliva that sprays out when the alien screams.

Zoroark immediately became interested after hearing this.

"Ahem, boss, do you know? There's a game recently where you can win the resurrection match and come back~" Zoroark rubbed his hands. Teng Shu felt a little amused, but still didn't say anything.

"Don't worry, I'll let you spend as much as you want." Teng Shu said helplessly.

Obviously, the salary he paid Zoroark was not low, but for some reason, this guy Zoroark always seemed to have not enough money. This made Teng Shu a little confused. After all, the games in this world were similar to those in his previous life, except that there were more and less game types.

Although Teng Shu didn't pay much attention to what Zoroark played, he also knew that Zoroark spent a lot of money on games every month. Teng Shu had no opinion on this. After all, the salary was paid to Zoroark, and Zoroark was free to use it however he wanted.

"Hiss!" A sharp hissing sound was heard, and then an alien appeared in front of Teng Shu. Looking at the alien in front of him, Teng Shu was very satisfied. Although it seemed that there was still something missing, such as the alien's saliva or something, it was still very vivid.

"It looks like if we finish shooting like this, the speed won't be too far behind." Teng Shu looked at the Zoroark in front of him thoughtfully. Once the most troublesome special effects part was solved, the shooting speed would be unimaginably fast. However, Teng Shu still planned to polish it carefully.

The story of Alien 1 begins with a spaceship receiving a distress signal while returning from a mission.

There were a lot of elements hidden in this plot at that time, and these elements later became Alien Prometheus and Alien Covenant, so the correct order of watching the movies is to start with Alien Prometheus.

When Teng Shu watched the movie, he felt that the facehugger eggs in Alien 1 might have been developed by the cyborg with super autonomous abilities.

But in general, the story of Alien 1 is not particularly complicated. To put it simply, the spacecraft received a signal and went to check, and then found a large number of facehugger eggs. Then one of the unlucky guys was hugged on the face by the facehugger and became parasitic.

The unfortunate companion was unaware of this and just took his companion back, thinking of using the medical cabin for treatment. However, after taking him back, he discovered that the facehugger did not kill the host, but was maintaining the host's breathing. However, it was impossible to forcibly peel it off from the host's face, because if it was forcibly peeled off, the facehugger's tail would suffocate the host.

During the preparation process, the most classic shot in Alien also came.

"Let the actors get ready, and the special effects team get ready as well, to make sure it goes through in one go!" Teng Shu was directing the set. At this moment, in the spaceship built by the Kanto Alliance, there were two unlucky guys lying with their faces hugged by Facehuggers. One was an unlucky supporting actor, and the other was also an unlucky supporting Pokémon actor.

"Ditto, you need to crawl out of their bodies later, then turn your head and roar. Do you understand what I mean?" At this moment, two trainers in the special effects team were communicating with their Pokémon.

The two actors lying on the ground naturally don't need to perform much, they don't even need any acting skills. Their faces are now wrapped with simulated facehuggers made by the props team, but the movements of the facehugger still need to be simulated by the actors themselves using air bags. So all the two actors have to do is to pinch the air bags according to their breathing rhythm to make the facehugger keep moving.

There was a strange "ji" sound, and the two Dittos lying on the actor's chest nodded. At this moment, they were lying on the actor's chest like a puddle of mud, waiting for the order to turn into small aliens and then break out of the chest, and there was artificial plasma all around them.

"Boss, is it really okay to parasitize Pikachu?" Zoroark was also standing aside. Now Zoroark has taken over the special effects actor of the Alien. In the later alien shots, Zoroark will play the human alien, while Pikachu will continue to play the Pikachu alien.

Zoroark will put a layer of illusion on Pikachu at that time, but Pikachu also needs to wear a special alien exoskeleton device made by the prop team to avoid some bloopers in the details.

"No problem. I know Pikachu won the first place in the league's most popular Pokémon competition in recent years. I deliberately let Pikachu participate." Teng Shu rubbed his hands excitedly.

In fact, being a director is not that fun, especially when shooting some special effects shots.

In the past, special effects shots were all post-produced, so the shooting of some shots was very unique. In some full special effects shots, monsters and the like were shot by human actors wearing motion capture equipment, and some special effects shots were performed by the actors themselves and the air. If the actors' acting skills were not good, some very embarrassing situations would occur. The director himself could not see those special effects shots, and they all needed post-processing. It was also for this reason that in the production process of a movie in the past, huge amounts of money and time would be spent on post-production and special effects processing.

However, Teng Shu did not have this concern. He could even see with his own eyes the alien burst out of the chests of the two actors.

"Oh, but boss, Pikachu has a lot of crazy fans." Zoroark still reminded Teng Shu. After hearing this, Teng Shu waved his hand indifferently. Of course, he knew that those crazy fans were almost the same as sasaeng fans. They were very crazy. For example, in the Pokémon Fan Association in the Hoenn region, the president was a crazy fan of Pikachu.

The clothes, pants, and shoes on his body are all Pikachu elements. The six Pokémon he carries with him are all Pikachu as well, dressed in various styles of Pikachu.

However, such people are nothing compared to those more unique sasaeng fans. Some of the sasaeng fans' actions made Teng Shu couldn't help but say that it was outrageous. After all, not everyone can do this.

"It's okay, it's just a movie, and a horror movie at that." Teng Shu was very calm. After the crew confirmed that everything was ready, Teng Shu continued to shoot this classic scene.

When the little alien broke out of the chest, the surrounding crew members were all stunned and missed the best chance to kill the alien. The little alien that was born quickly hid, grew up, and began to kill and appear mysteriously in the closed spaceship.

In the end, only the heroine relied on the halo of the protagonist to kill the alien, while everyone else fell to the ground and became food of the alien, and the whole story ended like this.

However, there is not much to say about the alien itself. After all, the alien is elusive and kills indiscriminately, and the horror atmosphere is created by the environment and background music.

These details are the key to whether a horror movie can be successful.

Some slasher or monster-themed movies all follow a similar routine: monsters and slashers chase the protagonists, and in the end the protagonists fight back or fail to do so, leaving a suspense for the next episode, and the movie ends.

But whether a movie is good or bad depends on how the director creates the atmosphere.

However, Teng Shu is still quite confident about this. After all, after receiving some awards, Teng Shu also studies the professional knowledge of directing on his own, so he is becoming more and more adept at making movies now.

"Teacher, why does the Alliance want us to do a movie review this time? Isn't this a waste of time?" At this moment in the Unova region, two men dressed in bookish clothes were sitting on the sofa, holding movie tickets in their hands.

The words "Buried Alive" were printed on the movie ticket.

"Azhi, there must be a reason why the alliance asked us to come here, and haven't you watched the news recently? This movie is very interesting." The older man said with a smile, looking at the movie ticket in his hand curiously.

During this period, even a doctoral supervisor in psychology like him, who didn't pay much attention to other things and only focused on academic research, knew the name of this movie. However, Hesk didn't pay much attention to this matter at first. After all, he didn't have much feeling for the movie.

But as Buried Alive gained more and more popularity, and then some outrageous reviews and news appeared, Sisk became interested in the film.

After all, as a scholar of psychology, Sisk is well aware of how difficult it is for a movie to affect the audience and make them feel suffocated while watching it.

Psychological suggestion is not a new term for the scholar Hisk. Some people even asked Hisk curiously whether he could hypnotize people. To this question, Hisk just smiled and shook his head. Although he did know some simple hypnosis, he couldn't make others obey him by just snapping his fingers like in the movies.

"I watched the teacher, but I think it's fake. What kind of psychological suggestion can movies give?" Azhi was still not convinced. He always felt that this was a waste of time. You know, the time between him and the teacher is very precious.

"So what do you think is going on with those people?" Sisk did not refute, but smiled and pointed in a direction. There were a few young people who had just finished watching a movie. They were sitting there, constantly adjusting their breathing, and Miss Joy, who was invited by the cinema, was asking them to relax their breathing.

Azhi was speechless. After all, from what he saw in the news and videos, he could say that the other party was hyping and marketing, but this was what they saw in reality.

Ever since Phantom Pictures issued a warning, telling audiences that the movie was just a movie and did not contain any suffocation scenes, and warning people with weak health conditions not to go to the movie, the popularity of Buried Alive has not only not decreased, but has increased instead.

After all, people always have a rebellious mentality. The more they are told not to do something, the more they will do it. And many people are also very curious, is Teng Shu's movie as scary as it is said? Is it really so scary that it can even make people feel like they are being buried alive?
As for those who watched the movie, no one knew what their purpose was. When they were asked this question, they just smiled and said that they had no intention of doing so and that those people were talking nonsense. Even under such circumstances, the attendance rate of Buried Alive is still quite high.

Ghost Pictures' only solution to this problem is to require each cinema to have a professional Miss Joy on standby at all times to prevent any unexpected situations.

Unexpectedly, this action has led more people to choose to go to the cinema, curious to see whether this Buried Alive movie is really so magical.

"Let's go and take a look. If there really is any psychological suggestion, we have to report it to the Alliance." Hesk stood up, even holding a bucket of popcorn in his hand.

"Teacher..." Ah Zhi sighed. He looked at the popcorn and Coke in his hand and felt that the teacher just wanted to watch a movie. (End of this chapter)
