Pokémon's Lord of Fear

Teng Shu is looking forward to the collaboration between Sadako and Kayako, but at the same time he feels a little conflicted.

After all, Teng Shu himself knew very well that, generally speaking, if the main characters in two works suddenly start to work together to shoot a movie, it is either that the film and television companies have an idea in their hearts and plan to create a universe, such as the very classic Marvel Avengers series, through the movies of individual characters such as Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America, they are constantly connected, and finally the Avengers were created, which ignited the Marvel craze at that time.

This is also a relatively successful example, but it may also be because Marvel's Avengers was too successful, which led to some subsequent problems. Many film and television companies have also tried to create their own movie universe, but generally speaking, there are basically no ones that can reach the level of the Avengers.

What's more, Marvel's subsequent works have become increasingly disappointing. The responses to the subsequent updated works have been mediocre and they are all rather formulaic. Even Kang, the Conqueror who was previously intended to be created, has been almost abandoned. Instead, Robert Downey Jr., the actor who played Iron Man, was invited back to play Doctor Doom in an attempt to restore Marvel's image in film and television.

However, Teng Shu had seen another classic horror movie before, which was "Jason vs. Freddy". One was the immortal killer in Crystal Lake, and the other was the nightmare who was working beside him now, so Teng Shu naturally had some understanding of this.

However, this movie is actually better than "Sadako vs. Kayako". After all, the reason why such a movie can attract audiences is purely because they want to go in and watch two murderers killing each other and then start competing with each other.

As for the failure of "Sadako vs. Kayako", Teng Shu believes that the subsequent works basically describe three living people, without much knowledge about the female ghost. Moreover, the director of "Sadako vs. Kayako" is Shiraishi Koji, who is a director with a very distinctive personal artistic style.

The other party's style is more inclined to the K-style, not the style of Shimizu Takashi who created The Grudge, so it may be because of the different director styles, which led to the failure of this movie. After all, the influence of a director on a movie can be said to be very profound.

It can even be said that if the same movie is given to different directors to shoot and edit, the final film will be slightly different. These extremely strong personal styles are also a way to become great directors.

"This can be kept, but it's not suitable for filming right now." Teng Shu scratched his head. This proposal was interesting, but in Teng Shu's opinion, there were still some problems. After all, the original script obviously could not be used directly. If it really wanted to be filmed, then how to shoot it was still a problem.

Therefore, Teng Shu is not in a hurry to shoot this film, and he also has some plans for subsequent films. He intends to shoot the Saw series. After all, Saw is also a very classic movie. It's just that this movie series may cause some problems in the fear value, after all, this movie is not particularly scary.

If I have to say something, it's just a little disgusting at best. Unless Teng Shu can get some skill like limb synesthesia, which allows the audience to feel their limbs being broken in the movie, it will be very difficult to scare the audience. Moreover, in Teng Shu's opinion, this movie is not as good as Tomie Without Limits in terms of the scale of scaring people. Tomie Without Limits only got such a little fear value, so naturally it is not very good.

"Okay, boss. Another director has submitted a script and wants to make this movie. I hope the company can approve it. But because this script is rather special, so..." Zoroak submitted another script, and Teng Shu became interested after hearing it.

Teng Shu's company is no longer the state of a few big cats and small cats as before. Now Teng Shu's company can be described as a big family with many more directors and actors. And because of Teng Shu's requirements, his company is also very clean, without so many twists and turns in the film and television industry. Teng Shu also adheres to the principle of ability to get the job, so the strength of these directors and actors is very good. For a while, Teng Shu's Ghost Film and Television Company seemed to be like an industry landslide.

With so many directors in the company, it was impossible for Teng Shu to read the script for each of them. After all, he did not have that much time. Therefore, Teng Shu specially set up a special review department to review and evaluate whether these scripts are feasible, whether they can make a profit, expected reputation, etc. If they pass, they can get funding, if not, they will be rejected.

However, there are some situations that will be submitted directly to them. That is when there is a lot of controversy in the review department and there is no way to confirm it, or the required budget is too high and needs to be reviewed by the big boss Teng Shu. Otherwise, generally speaking, they can solve this problem themselves.

"This script was submitted by a director who plans to shoot a movie similar to a crime film, and then..." Zoroak told Teng Shu something that was not on the document, and Teng Shu's eyes fell on the first page of the document, which was also the name of the movie.

Infernal Affairs

Teng Shu raised an eyebrow and continued to look at the script intently.

Three years later and another three years!
I want to be a good person.

There is a mole. Stop trading.

These classic lines kept appearing, and Teng Shu was a little surprised. Although when he saw Rear Window before, Teng Shu knew that this world seemed to reflect some previous things, such as some movies in his previous life, but he didn't expect that it would reflect such a unique movie as Infernal Affairs.

Infernal Affairs was once a pinnacle of Hong Kong films. It received rave reviews when it was first released, and some of its memes are still being used today. It can be said to be a very unique movie.

Moreover, the concept of this movie is also very good. The outstanding acting skills of several big Hong Kong film stars also add a lot of brilliance to the movie. Many changes in eyes and expressions are types that many new generation actors have to think carefully and may not be able to master.

Teng Shu had thought about whether to shoot Infernal Affairs before, but after thinking about it, Teng Shu finally decided not to shoot it. He just planned to wait and see if there was anything in the future. Unexpectedly, a director in the company actually came up with this script, which is not bad.

"Funding, and then the basic requirements for these filmings will follow the company's." Teng Shu waved his hand. He had already finished reading the script. The overall plot of Infernal Affairs was not changed much, but because of the addition of Pokémon, some Pokémon also appeared in it, and it was relatively more unique.

However, this does not affect the excellence of the script, and Teng Shu is personally very satisfied with it.

"Okay, boss." Zoroark wrote it down honestly.

Immediately afterwards, Teng Shu began to continue filming this movie.

With Kayako’s personal appearance, the filming was successfully completed. All that was left was editing. And here, Teng Shu had a new idea.

"Zoroyak, what do you think of the music composition ability of our company's post-production department?" Teng Shu sat in the car, squinting his eyes, holding little Q in his arms, stroking little Q's head, and asked Zoroak who was driving at the same time.

"Ah? Boss, I think it's very good. After all, the soundtracks nowadays are very professional." Zoroark was a little confused as to why Teng Shu asked this, but since it was Teng Shu who asked, Zoroark naturally answered. She now had a grasp of the affairs of the entire Ghost Film and Television Company, although she couldn't say that she had mastered everything, she had mastered most of it.

This was taught by Secretary Kuroda. According to Secretary Kuroda, as a secretary, one must master all kinds of knowledge about the company. These are very important things. After all, only by mastering this rich knowledge can one have a deeper understanding of one's own company. And for this reason, Zoroark now knows a lot about the entire Ghost Pictures Company, and even heard some gossip and rumors.

"Oh? If it is improved, is there a chance of improvement?" Teng Shu became interested. He was quite concerned about this issue. After all, in horror movies, sound effects often occupy a very important part.

Sound effects are very important in horror movies. Many people say that if you turn off the sound while watching a movie and turn on songs like "Good Luck" and "Wish You Good Fortune", the horror level of general horror movies will be greatly reduced, and some movies may not be scary at all.

Excellent sound effects are also a key reason for making a movie more outstanding, so Teng Shu is quite concerned about this aspect. After all, only by making the soundtrack better can he make his film company more outstanding.

"Well, if there is, there should be. Although some music can be hired, but still..." Zoroark briefly stated his thoughts, and Teng Shu was thoughtful after hearing it. This question was quite good, and what Zoroark said also made Teng Shu feel very interesting.

Even Teng Shu thought of the famous Tom and Jerry. Some of the music in Tom and Jerry was very outstanding and laid the foundation for the success of Tom and Jerry. At that time, an orchestra was specially invited to perform.

Teng Shu had some ideas in his mind. He planned to expand the post-production department so that it could produce more realistic sound effects. He also had to find opportunities to cooperate with those orchestras and let these orchestras be responsible for the soundtrack, which would surely be even better.

Thinking of this, Teng Shu's mood improved a lot. He nodded complacently. He felt that this idea of ​​his was quite good.

After returning to the company, Teng Shu took Xiao Q to the welfare home for some fun.

As the hair of colleagues in the post-production department became thinner and there were screams, the trailer for Ju-Jin 3 was edited, and after Zoroark asked Teng Shu for his opinion, he immediately put it on the Internet.

"Hello, everyone. Today we are going to take a look at... Ah, the latest trailer of Phantom Pictures, The Grudge 3!" It was still the familiar Never Degenerate Video Network. Gardevoir was sitting in her seat and doing a live broadcast. However, after seeing the new trailer of Phantom Pictures, Gardevoir was still a little excited.

Director Teng Shu doesn't have many new works. After all, shooting a movie takes time. However, Gardevoir is an avid fan of Teng Shu. Naturally, she has greater expectations for this work, which has been news about for a long time and is known as the final version of Ju-Grudge.

[The Grudge, this time is not right, buddy! It's already nine o'clock in the evening! ]

[Haha, this is too normal. Director Teng Shu is always so gloomy. Frankly speaking, I'm used to it.]

[That’s right, but I am also very much looking forward to this movie. After all, The Grudge is now hailed as the scariest horror movie of the year.]

"Yes, it's nine o'clock in the evening now, but can I resist not watching it? I can't help it at all!" Gardevoir opened the trailer expectantly. It was only three minutes long, but the number of people watching at the same time had exceeded 200,000. It was simply outrageous.

As the title of The Grudge 3 appeared, the next scene became a little curious.

The entire trailer is not very long, but most of it is footage from a movie. I would have thought that Teng Shu had uploaded the behind-the-scenes footage.

[To be honest, I'm really curious about what the behind-the-scenes story of The Grudge is]

[I am curious too, but it is annoying that Director Teng Shu won’t release it]

[Another boring trailer scam routine. Teng Shu has really run out of ideas.]

[Yes, it’s extremely boring. It’s better to watch some interesting short films at home.]

[You'd better say it's a short movie]

And at the end, a woman appeared, walking in the sunset, with a strange smile on her face, which was somewhat kind, yet somewhat dull, as if she had no soul, making people feel suffocated.

Then there was Kayako's iconic gurgling sound, and the trailer ended.

"To be honest, if it weren't for the bubbling sound at the end, I would have suspected that the wrong footage was played." Gardevoir was a little excited. It was well hidden. Horror movies are all about hiding. If nothing is hidden, how many surprises can the main film give people? And this woman this time, she is also very familiar. She is a very well-known female star in the film and television industry, and she is a powerful actress.

[I get goosebumps all over when I hear this sound]

[Stop talking, I feel Kayako is right behind me]

How could this happen?

Gardevoir looked at the funny comments in the live broadcast room with a bit of a laugh and tears in her eyes, but she still tried to stop the fight with a smile, and at the same time liven up the atmosphere in the room.

"In that case, let's just draw 500 movie tickets for Ju-Jou 3 today!" Gardevoir said with a smile. (End of this chapter)
