Pokémon's Lord of Fear

Little Q tilted his head and looked at Teng Shu, then shook his head. He only liked his Pikachu stuffed animal set. Fugui also shook his head. He felt that his golden body was good enough and there was no need to make it into something else.

Teng Shu shrugged. Giving Pokémon beauty treatments and changing their clothes is an essential part of the Pokémon world. However, both of his Pokémon are ghost-type and don't care much about changing clothes, so Teng Shu didn't get to experience the fun of dressing up his Pokémon.

You should know that there are a lot of Pokémon dress-up and makeup stores, especially in the Hoenn region. Those who participate in the Pokémon Contest are basically regulars of makeup and dress-up stores.

Teng Shu remembered that there was a gorgeous competition. The sweet and cold queen who appeared on the stage wore a bunny girl uniform, which was very eye-catching. However, she was defeated by a Cang Yan Blade Ghost dressed as a swordsman. The opponent's sword of regret directly ignited the whole audience, making the judges exclaim in disbelief.

I have to say, that Blue Flame Blade Ghost was really handsome. When Teng Shu saw it, he wanted to capture one.

Maybe I can try it when I have the chance in the future.

100. Chapter 100 Come out! Greninja!

100.

"Mr. Teng Shu, I wish us a smooth cooperation this time." At Ghost Pictures, Ming Huang smiled and shook hands with Teng Shu, and Teng Shu also smiled politely.

The signing went smoothly. After all, both companies were very satisfied with each other's cooperation plan. Teng Shu only needed to agree that Rotom mobile phone would use the "Call" IP. Teng Shu was also very satisfied with Rotom's design plan, which perfectly restored some of the settings in "Call".

"Mr. Ming Huang, I would like to ask, when will Rotom's new mobile phone be on the market?" Teng Shu asked with some curiosity. He also planned to buy one to use.

After all, it is a product jointly produced by his own company. As the boss of the company, he naturally has to support it.

"Our company has already customized the templates. We just need to modify the internal program of the phone and train Rotom. If everything goes well, you'll be able to see our company's phones in about three days." Ming Huang quickly gave a reply.

Teng Shu was a little surprised. It seemed that Rotom Corporation was determined to win and started preparing so early, otherwise it would not have been possible to prepare so quickly.

But it is true. After all, if it is a collaboration with a movie and it is not released quickly while the movie is still popular, the later effects will not be particularly good.

There is a memory limit in the audience's mind.

The longer time passes, the more vague the memory becomes. Although Teng Shu has a special effect that can make the audience always remember the ghost call, Ming Huang and others obviously don't know about this, so naturally they want to launch the linked mobile phone as soon as possible.

This made Teng Shu interested in Nemo's sister. She seemed to be a strong woman, but he didn't know what she looked like. The image of Nemo's sister didn't seem to appear in the original game.

"You are the actor who plays Mimiko Mizunuma?!" On the other side, Nemo was looking at Zoroark in front of her with shock. She found it a little bit unbelievable. In the movie, Mimiko Mizunuma was a little girl who looked a little sickly, but the one in front of her was a strong young man.

How can a man like this play the role of Mimiko Mizunuma?

"Yes~" Zoroark turned his eyes and looked at Nemo with a smile in his eyes. Nemo opened her mouth, but before she could speak, she noticed a problem.

In the mirror beside her, the person standing in front of her was not a man, but a little girl with waist-length hair. She was wearing a white dress and was standing there barefoot. There were corpse spots on her calves.

The expression on Nimo's face became stiff.

She looked at the mirror in panic, then looked at Zoroark who was looking at her with a strange smile, and couldn't help swallowing.

It turns out that this is the reason why Director Teng Shu is so good at shooting horror films. He actually invited ghosts to make the movie!

"Oh, it seems like you've discovered me." Zoroark's voice suddenly turned into Mimiko Mizunuma's voice, and then its eyes glanced to both sides, the black pupils disappeared, and turned into completely white eyes, and Zoroark's big hand turned into Mimiko Mizunuma's small hand with a sickly white color, and there was a candy in her hand.

Nemo subconsciously took a step back. Of course she knew what the candy was used for. Every time Mizunuma Mimiko killed someone, she would feed the other person a candy. After the other person abused her sister, she would also feed him a candy. What kind of mental illness is this?

So is the other party going to attack me?

"Come out! Greninja!" Along with Nemo's call and the Poké Ball she threw, a Greninja suddenly appeared in front of Zoroark and subconsciously took a fighting stance towards Zoroark.

"I won't surrender! Greninja! Use the Wave of Evil," Neemo said with great fighting spirit.

When people are afraid, they often have two extreme behaviors. One is extreme fear, completely losing the ability to act independently and can only allow others to slaughter them. The other is extreme anger, where fear turns into anger, bringing them endless rage.

Obviously, Nimo is the latter.

"Wait!" Before Nimo could finish her shout, Teng Shu came out immediately. He had just been chatting with Ming Huang in the office about cooperation. Ming Huang said that after the new mobile phone is produced, he will give Teng Shu a flagship version of the Ghost Call Link mobile phone.

Teng Shu also agreed with a smile, but he didn't expect that while they were chatting, he heard Nemo's voice coming from outside, which made Teng Shu quickly get up and walk out.

As soon as I came out, I saw Zoroark and Nemo, as well as Greninja in front of Nemo.

Although he didn't know what was going on, Teng Shu immediately stopped Nimo from fighting.

"Ms. Nemo, don't be so excited. I am indeed the actor of Mimiko Mizunuma." Zoroark was also a little amused. It withdrew its own illusion and turned into Mimiko Mizunuma. At the same time, it kept changing its posture and even turned into Nemo's appearance in the middle, which made Nemo stunned.

"This is my secretary, Zoroark." Teng Shu pinched his eyebrows. He now understood what was going on. This guy Zoroark must have tried to scare Nemo on purpose, but he didn't succeed. Instead, he was almost beaten up by Nemo's Greninja.

However, looking at the agile and obviously well-cultivated Greninja, Teng Shu was still a little surprised. He had never seen Neemo use this Pokémon before.

As expected, a champion-level trainer still has some background of his own. Moreover, as the second daughter of the owner of Rotom Cell Phone Company, Neemo probably has no shortage of training resources, so it is normal for her to be able to train so many Pokémon.

"Zoroark?" Neemo blinked. She knew of course about this special Pokémon called Zoroark, which was known as the phantom Pokémon.

But she had never seen a Pokémon that could change as much as the Zoroark in front of her, and whose imitations were so lifelike.

"Yes, I'm Zoroark, and this is my professional qualification certificate." Zoroark took out a certificate. If Pokémon wants to work in the human world, it needs to obtain a professional qualification certificate certified by the League. The certificate will contain the basic information of this Pokémon, and it cannot be fake.

Teng Shu was not very curious. He had seen it at the beginning. It only said basic information like [Race: Zoroark] [Attribute: Evil] and then words like "Work is allowed".

101. Chapter 101 New Short Film Selection

101.

Nemo apologized quickly, and Zoroark also quickly expressed his apologies. After all, it was indeed it that wanted to scare Nemo first, which led to the subsequent changes.

"Director Teng Shu, can I have an autograph from you?" Neemo was a bit careless. She quickly forgot about the fact that she had just been frightened by Zoroark, which made Teng Shu frown.

"Of course." Teng Shu smiled. He had practiced signing before. After all, as the future heir of Dewen Company, Teng Shu wrote his own name most often.

Nimo took out two movie tickets from her arms and handed them to Teng Shu. Teng Shu took it. The movie ticket was very exquisitely designed and seemed to be a collectible ticket stub. It was different from traditional movie tickets. The workmanship was also very good and the materials were also very good.

Teng Shu was a little surprised. This collection of ticket stubs should be the cinema's own idea. However, according to the contract, these extra incomes will also be distributed to Ghost Pictures in proportion.

Teng Shu took out a pen and signed his name on it, and Nimo happily put it away.

"My sister is also a fan of yours, Director Teng Shu!" Nimo smiled happily, and Teng Shu nodded. No wonder there were two ticket stubs.

"Mr. Teng Shu, your work is a phenomenal movie in the Padilla region." Ming Huang also added with a smile. Teng Shu felt a little embarrassed after hearing it, but there was also a hint of joy in his heart. It is a happy thing to be liked by others.

Ming Huang was about to leave after signing the contract. Teng Shu warmly invited Ming Huang and Nimo to have lunch together, and then sent them to the airport.

Nemo didn't want to leave at first, but until he received a call saying that a new championship challenger had appeared in Padia, Nemo chose to return to Padia.

Teng Shu is not surprised. Nemo's personality is similar to that of a battle maniac. When playing the game, you can often encounter Nemo and have a battle with her. Moreover, Nemo is very concerned about the protagonist. After the protagonist defeats Nemo, Nemo even wants to become a strong rival of the protagonist.

It can only be said that the setting of a strong enemy runs through almost every Pokémon work.

"You kid, you almost got beaten just now, right?" After sending Nemo and Ming Huang away, Teng Shu looked at Zoroark beside him with a displeased look.

"I didn't expect Miss Nemo to be so excited." Zoroark rubbed his nose with a helpless look. Teng Shu glanced at Zoroark and found that Zoroark seemed very confident. He was afraid that if he hadn't called for a stop at that time, Zoroark would have his own way to deal with Nemo's Greninja?

This made Teng Shu curious about Zoroark's strength. This guy Zoroark had never taken any action since he had been asked to be a secretary. Teng Shu really didn't know how strong Zoroark was.

However, considering Zoroark's magical phantom ability, Teng Shu felt that the strength of his own Zoroark would probably not be low.

"When the new cell phones are available, ask the company employees how many want them, and purchase one for each person as a gift. It will be considered a company benefit." Teng Shu did not continue to think about Zoroark's ability. Anyway, he found Zoroark a good secretary, so he did not plan to replace his secretary for the time being unless there were any major problems.

"Okay, is it the Ultimate Edition, the Standard Edition, or the Youth Edition?" Zoroark wrote this down and asked at the same time.

"Of course it's the regular version." Teng Shu didn't even think about it. The price of the flagship version was twice as high as the regular version. For something like company welfare, giving away a regular version would be enough. The first-day box office of "Something Happens to Me" was pretty good, but Teng Shu needed money a lot during this period, so naturally he would save as much as he could.

Zoroark recorded it honestly. Even if it was a regular version of the phone, he didn't need it, but he could sell it to make money, and then he could continue to spend money.

After resolving the linkage issue, Teng Shu returned to the company and asked the company's publicity and promotion department to release a trailer on the official website first. Rotom Mobile will also do this, as it can be regarded as a way to start hyping up the popularity in advance. Teng Shu is very supportive of this. After all, the linkage can also bring some new traffic to the movie.

By then, there will definitely be some viewers who don’t watch movies who will be curious about why mobile phones are linked to movies. If they are interested in watching the movie, then it will also increase the movie box office, right?

Teng Shu has an idea, which is to promote the practice of playing movies for Pokémon in the wild to the entire league. Then he can gain a huge amount of fear value. Although the investment will be higher, the gain will not be small.

Although the only use of fear points now is to exchange for fear sugar cubes, the fear sugar cubes alone are enough for Teng Shu to spend money on.

If the fear sugar cube can be made into steel sugar cube and sold to my brother, at 100 million for one sugar cube, my brother will definitely buy it without hesitation. This is a magical item that increases the racial value and is not available anywhere else. Teng Shu can be considered a monopoly businessman.

But if we follow the old routine of Hoenn and spend money, then each region will have to invest at least 500 million. Currently, the alliance has a total of eight regions. Teng Shu heard that the alliance is actively exploring the development of the ninth region, but there is no news about the ninth region yet.

Excluding Hoenn, Teng Shu still needs to attack seven more regions, which would cost 3.5 billion.

This is not a small number.

Although Dewen Company is rich, even if it is Teng Shu, if he wants to spend 3.5 billion to play movies for wild Pokémon, his old father will not agree without a suitable reason.

So Teng Shu had to either make money himself or find a way to get the alliance to play movies voluntarily.

"But the source of the film is also a problem. After the lights are turned off, this short film will probably have been shown almost all in Hoenn. It's time to start shooting some new horror films." Teng Shu thought of a problem.

Although it is scary after turning off the lights, wild Pokémon may scare you the first time you watch it, but after watching it ten times, you will naturally feel nothing. So in order to continuously obtain fear value, he also needs to shoot some other short films or movies to fill this gap.

However, Ghost Call is not suitable for being remade into a special Pokémon version. After all, wild Pokémon cannot use mobile phones and they cannot understand them.

Hannibal? No, if this TV series is released, the alliance will not allow it. If it causes some Pokémon copycat crimes, Teng Shu will be in big trouble.

So a horror short film is a good choice, and Teng Shu decided to make another one.

102. Chapter 102: Simple and Effective Face-Scare

102.

[How to watch movies on the Never Deteriorate website: I found the correct way to watch Ghost Call! ]

[Is being a nympho illegal? : Is it okay to watch while exercising? ]

【Presenting a horror film to the world: You are worthy of it! 】

[How to watch movies on the Never Deteriorate website: Don’t make trouble, nympho, I think according to the “Non-Aggression Treaty between Humans and Ghosts”, if you receive a call from a ghost, you just need to hide under the quilt.]

[Water Mill: Indeed, according to the Human-Ghost Non-Aggression Treaty, the bed can be said to be the only weapon to save us! ]

[I am a ghost dimension: 6]

"Bed?" Teng Shu scratched his head while looking at the chat group on his phone. He really didn't expect that there is such a thing as a non-aggression treaty between humans and ghosts in the Pokémon world. But thinking about the horror movies he had watched before, Teng Shu found that in the Pokémon world, there seemed to be no horror movies about beds.

There is no scene where the protagonist hides under the covers and is attacked by evil spirits, just like those ghost Pokémon would not do that.

"Tsk tsk, if It's Me, a Ghost Story wasn't still in theaters, I would have wanted to make a film called The Grudge." Teng Shu licked his lips and rubbed his hands excitedly.

Although the saying that quilts can protect against ghosts is just a joke, when people have this impression, once it is broken, the fear it brings is unparalleled, just like the classic horror movie "The Grudge", when Kayako is seen when the quilt is pulled back, it is a childhood trauma for countless people.

But Teng Shu himself feels that Kayako in the bed is not actually that scary. After all, Kayako at that time did not have the classic stair-climbing makeup on. Her skin was just very white and her eyes were wide open. The reason why this is scary is that it breaks the settings of many horror movies, that is, when the protagonist is hiding in the bed, he is safe most of the time.

Although they would be caught and beaten by ghosts when they went out, when they were in bed, they would often take a breath tacitly and then continue to transition to the next horror scene.

Moreover, in The Grudge, going to the temple is useless, and exorcists are also useless, which highlights the fact that there is no solution. It seems that as long as you are infected with the curse and meet someone possessed by the curse, you will die.

This lack of solution further amplifies the sense of fear.

"But for wild Pokémon, these plots are not very effective...a simple sudden appearance is more frightening." Teng Shu took out a piece of draft paper and wrote down his thoughts on it.

A sudden face scare is when a ghost suddenly appears in the screen, accompanied by music or something, which will cause people to be startled. Although this type of scare has been overused, it has to be said that it is indeed simple and effective.

Perhaps the sudden face-scare method seems a bit backward to humans who have been influenced by horror movies for a long time, but what kind of group are wild Pokémon? These wild Pokémon have never seen the existence of movies and short films, so the simplest way of scaring can bring a more direct horror effect.

With this idea in mind, Teng Shu quickly wrote a simple short film.

The content is also very simple.

When a Spearow was flying in the sky, it saw a ball of fire below and a strange monster standing next to the fire. But when it continued to fly forward, it found a ball of fire in front of it, and the monster was still standing there, but it looked even more terrifying.

The Spearow flew over more than a dozen balls of fire, and the terrifying strange figure was getting closer and closer to the Spearow. When the Spearow was frightened, the monster beside the fire disappeared, and only the flames were burning.

But the next second, a terrifying monster suddenly appeared in front of Lieque, with a frightening face.

This is different from "After Turning Off the Lights". This time, Teng Shu did not choose those classic short films from the previous life. After all, many of those classic short films from the previous life were based on human technology and daily life. They were very scary for humans, but they were a little confusing for Pokémon.

It's like a short film, where the protagonist finds a ghost in a photo when he's flipping through it, and then flips it over and over again, and the ghost gradually gets closer and finally disappears, and when he turns around he finds the other person standing next to him.

Is it scary? Of course it is scary, but wild Pokémon don't know what a photo is, so the level of shock is naturally not enough.

Then there's the classic phone selfie, and the camera captures a bunch of facial recognition boxes floating around, which looks scary to humans but is incomprehensible to Pokémon.

So Teng Shu understood.

If you want to scare wild Pokémon, you don’t need such complicated settings. A simple sudden face-scare is very good.

"In theory, I don't need to shoot a short film of this level, but if I don't participate in the filming, can I still gain the fear value?" Teng Shu looked at the short short film in his hand. There was no plot, it was just for the sake of scaring people.

For a short film of this level, Teng Shu only needed to let the company's employees shoot it, but Teng Shu was also worried that if he didn't participate in the shooting, he wouldn't be able to gain any fear value.

So Teng Shu decided to do it himself. After all, this kind of shooting work was not difficult and could be done in one night.
