Pokémon's Lord of Fear
Page 45
After Zoroark left, Teng Shu was also sitting in the office, thinking about what movie to make next.
With the joint launch of "Ghost Call" and other works, it is estimated that the popularity will soar even higher. Although "Ghost Call" has not reached the popularity of "Dead Silence" on the Internet during this period, there are still some discussions. Teng Shu knows that if he wants the audience to remember him, the gap between his works must not be too long.
Otherwise, the audience probably won’t even remember what they have filmed.
"How about "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village"? " Teng Shu thought of a childhood classic.

117. Chapter 117 Sakaki
117.
Horror movies, especially horror movies from a certain region, always have a lot of flaws.
The requirement of "not being feudal and superstitious" killed the horror film. At that time, horror films in the region almost became a model of shoddy production. They looked like the fantasies of lunatics, or people deliberately pretending to be ghosts, or dreams, or even dreams before death, etc. However, there were also some excellent horror films before that.
For example, the movie "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" became a childhood shadow for countless people. The female ghost representative Chu Renmei in the movie was the nightmare protagonist of countless people at that time.
Teng Shu remembered that there was a second part of "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village", but the second part was not as well-known as the first one, so it was not as well-known as the first one. It was also very easy to shoot if you wanted to, because the lakes were ready-made. There was a lake next to the puppet theater in the Chenghua Forest, and the new hospital was still under construction.
At that time, maybe we can develop some tourist projects, allowing tourists to dive down to put a bracelet on Chu Renmei, and then experience the feeling of being caught. However, the work "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" is not particularly scary in terms of the subsequent viewing experience. The most frightening part of the whole play should be the part where Chu Renmei changes her face.
"But it's just right to put it in this world." Teng Shu wrote the title of the movie "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" on a piece of paper. It should be okay to put this movie in the world of Pokémon, and "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" also has some educational significance, such as not seeking death, letting go of the desire to help others, respecting the fate of others, etc., and true love can dispel the curse.
But some clips in it also had to be changed to make it more terrifying, so as to meet Teng Shu's requirements.
Since you are going to shoot, then strive for perfection.
Time passed as short as the break between classes, and in the blink of an eye it was evening.
Teng Shu went home from work in a relaxed and happy mood. While walking on the road, Teng Shu saw a program playing on the TV next to him.
".Our station reports that the Kaina City Shipyard was attacked by the Magma Team today. The casualties and economic losses are currently under investigation. The Junsha Team calls on trainers in the Hoenn region to pay attention to their personal safety in the wild. If you encounter the Magma Team and the Water Fleet, please quickly move away and seek help from the Junsha Team. Call the police."
On TV, a female reporter was talking seriously, and the screen flashed the scene of the shipyard in Kaina City. Teng Shu frowned slightly. Has the Magma Team started to become active? Could it be that they have found the place where Groudon was sleeping?
If it was the plot of the game, Teng Shu remembered that Groudon should be sleeping inside Chimney Mountain, but without the corresponding gem, Groudon could not be awakened.
As long as the red and blue orbs are in hand, there won't be any big problems. I guess I need to talk to my brother about this when I get back.
Anyway, no matter whether it is the Water Fleet or the Magma Team, these guys will get the Ruby and Sapphire Orbs in the end so that they can awaken Groudon and Kyogre. As long as the Ruby and Sapphire Orbs are not lost, everything can be salvaged.
"It seems that Hoenn is not very peaceful, Gym Master Dujuan." A steady and magnetic voice, Teng Shu turned his head and heard a name in the sentence, Dujuan, the Rock-type Gym Master of Kanaz City.
This is also the novice gym in the guide released by the Hoenn League. Of course, if the trainer is a nitpicker, it is okay not to start here. There is no strict order for challenging gyms.
The Pokémon gym adopts a flexible system, where the corresponding lineup is determined by the strength of the trainer, and not every challenger can face the gym owner directly. Most of them will face elites or something like that. Only challengers with enough strength will face the gym owner, and the gym owner generally has two lineups, a flexible lineup and a full-strength lineup.
Teng Shu had seen Dujuan's full lineup. The Boskodora alone was not something a novice could deal with, not to mention Pokémon like Cradle, Lily, and Archaic Armor.
Teng Shu saw Du Juan, who was wearing casual clothes today, but her hairstyle was still similar to twin ponytails. Next to Du Juan stood a man, wearing a black suit, a gray shirt, and a black hat. The colors on the man were relatively dark, and his face was
Sakaki?
Teng Shu recognized the other person's identity.
For some reason, Sakaki in Teng Shu's world is still a gym leader. His identity as the boss of Team Rocket has not been exposed yet. He is a respected gym leader. People call him Sakaki of the Earth, but Teng Shu knows that Sakaki's Beedrill is also very powerful.
"Master Sakaki, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. These dark organizations are like rats in the gutter. You can never catch them all." Du Juan's face was not very good either. After all, this was embarrassing in front of outsiders.
"Hahaha, the Alliance can definitely catch all these rats, for sure." Sakaki laughed heartily. Teng Shu touched his face. He was worthy of being Sakaki. He was the biggest leader among the rats and he had the nerve to say that.
But what was Sakaki doing in Hoenn? Teng Shu was a little curious.
But considering the recent time, he understood that this period of time was the internal communication meeting of the Pokémon League held every two years, and the kings and champions of each region would gather in one region for the meeting.
Although all these people came to the meeting, the people in that area often did not dare to do anything, because this was the time when the alliance was most alert. If they dared to come out and cause trouble, they would die miserably. Moreover, those who were caught during this period would be dealt with to the maximum extent in court. Crimes that were originally sentenced to five to twenty-five years would be directly sentenced to twenty-five years without any reduction in sentence.
Ever since Team Rocket tried to cause trouble but ended up having half of their people sent to prison by the enraged Alliance, all the dark organizations knew they had to behave themselves during this period of time.
However, the specific time is probably still one or two days away. The Lava Team probably wants to do something ruthless and then hide to avoid the strict inspection during this period.
"Teng Shu?" Dujuan also noticed Teng Shu's gaze at this time. She greeted Teng Shu with a smile. She knew the Zfuchi family. There was no gym master in the Hoenn region who did not know the Zfuchi family.
"Master Dujuan, Master Sakaki, good afternoon." Teng Shu walked over and greeted them. Sakaki is the boss of Team Rocket. Although Team Rocket also has a branch in Hoenn, it is suppressed by Team Magma and Team Aqua, so it doesn't matter.
At present, Sakaki is still very kind. Although he looks a little serious, he is also easy to talk to. He is also very humorous when chatting. Teng Shu glanced at Sakaki. He is also a good actor and must be very strong.

118. Chapter 118 Sakaki also wants to act in a movie
118.
"Director Teng Shu, can you sign an autograph for me?" Sakaki took out a poster and handed it to Teng Shu. Teng Shu was stunned when he saw it. This poster was the poster of "Ghost Call".
"That's no problem." Although Teng Shu was a little surprised, he still took it and wrote his name on it.
However, he was also a little curious in his heart. After all, Teng Shu really didn't expect that Sakaki would also watch his movie. But if he thought about it carefully, it seemed understandable. You know, although Sakaki is the gym leader and the boss of Team Rocket, he is also a human being. Everyone has spiritual needs to be satisfied.
So it's not surprising that Sakaki likes watching movies. His brother Daigo also likes to dig stones. The big star next door, Champion, also likes to make movies. Shirona likes archaeology. Teng Shu heard that Adu likes to play games and once had an offline battle because of a dispute on the Internet. However, Adu himself did not admit this statement, and the Kanto Alliance also denied this statement.
It has become a weird topic on the Internet.
"Director Teng Shu, I wonder when you plan to start shooting your next movie? Can I come and play a role then?" Sakaki looked at Teng Shu with great interest. Teng Shu was really surprised this time. He could accept Sakaki watching a movie, but he didn't expect that the other party actually wanted to act in a movie?
This proposal made Teng Shu fall into deep thought. Can Sakaki participate? Of course, there is no problem with the current Sakaki. The current Sakaki is still the gym leader, and his true identity has not been revealed. His participation in the movie can actually increase the popularity of the Kanto region and the Johto region. After all, Sakaki is very famous in these two regions.
Who in Kanto and Johto doesn't know Sakaki of the Earth? Many people even started to make a fuss, thinking that Sakaki should be one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Kanto region.
Moreover, even if Sakaki's identity is exposed in the future, it will not only not affect the movie, but will make the movie continue to be popular.
After all, this is a movie starring the Rockets' leader, so who wouldn't be curious about what this starring actor's movie looks like? Just like if a certain No. 1 male gun in his previous life was going to make a movie, Teng Shu would definitely search for resources to watch it.
This is the celebrity effect.
"What a sin! When did I start to consider things from a commercial perspective?" Teng Shu reflected in his heart, but looking at the expectant Sakaki in front of him, Teng Shu still nodded. Sakaki was able to hide under the nose of the alliance for so long, he must have some skills, and his acting skills must be good enough, so it would not be a problem to let him play a supporting role or a small role.
And with Sakaki already in the cast, it's possible to invite other people to make guest appearances. This kind of thing is not uncommon in the film industry, especially if there is overlap in roles, such as driving a car and hitting a friend. There will definitely be a lot of people willing to act for no pay.
They can even bring their own trucks, and if Sakaki comes to participate, it will probably attract some museum owners or something.
"That's no problem, but Mr. Sakaki may not be able to play the leading male role." Teng Shu looked at Sakaki. The role he planned to arrange for Sakaki to be the first one to die among the old corpses in the mountain village. He would not appear in many scenes, but he still left a strong impression on people.
"Hahaha, Director Teng Shu, I'm already very satisfied to be able to act in your work." Sakaki smiled happily. Teng Shu has filmed only two movies, one is Dead Silence and the other is If You Want to Be a Servant. These two movies have successfully made Teng Shu the throne of the great horror film director, and there is no other.
Sakaki's favorite thing to do is to watch horror movies. After all, he has too many daily affairs and is under a lot of pressure. Watching horror movies is one of the few ways for Sakaki to relax. He even joined a horror movie lover exchange group in the Kanto area, but he doesn't talk very often.
Looking at Teng Shu, Sakaki was somewhat moved. He thought that he might consider joining Hoenn's communication group, so that he could get more information about director Teng Shu's new work.
After chatting with Sakaki for a while, a new mobile phone number appeared on Teng Shu's phone, which was Sakaki's private phone number.
After Teng Shu left, Sakaki continued to stroll on the streets of Kanaz City with Dujuan.
"Team Rocket." Teng Shu was now lying on the big bed in his home. He lay there looking at Sakaki's information on his mobile phone and fell into deep thought.
As the earliest villain organization, Team Rocket is quite popular, but this popularity is mainly reflected in the cute and charming trio of villain characters. It can even be said that throughout the entire Pokémon anime, Sakaki and the rest of Team Rocket's appearance time is not even a fraction of the trio.
But it would be naive to think that Team Rocket is made up of only these three funny guys. The fact that Team Rocket has become the largest villain organization in the entire Kanto and even the entire Johto region is not something they can do by relying on these funny guys.
"Now that Sakaki's identity has not been exposed, the most likely thing Team Rocket will do in the future is to create Mewtwo, and then there will be subsequent branching plots," Teng Shu thought thoughtfully.
The birth of Mewtwo was almost inevitable. Although Teng Shu remembered that Mewtwo seemed to be born on the new island, he didn't remember whether there would be any changes in reality. Moreover, there were many small islands around Kanto, and it was not easy to find them accurately without a map.
But the biggest trouble comes from the birth of Mewtwo. There are multiple timelines and parallel universes in the world of Pokémon. For example, the Rainbow Rocket Team that later became very popular is a super villain organization that Sakaki successfully created after he captured Mewtwo.
It includes Shui Wutong and Crimson Flame Pine, who subdued the two gods of Hoenn, as well as other villains. It can be said to be a large collection of villains. They were brought out to rehash some old stories and sell some sentiments, but it is indeed useful.
"Mewtwo!" Teng Shu had a headache. The issues with Hoenn haven't been resolved yet, and Mewtwo has popped up again. However, looking at Sakaki's appearance, it is estimated that it will not have much impact in the short term. When Sakaki resigns as the gym leader and becomes the boss of Team Rocket, then it will be time to pay attention to Mewtwo.
Now Teng Shu just wants to resolve the mess in Hoenn first.
"Huh? A new member has joined the group?" Teng Shu's phone vibrated. He opened it and took a look. It was the Hoenn Horror Film Lovers Association. The person who joined the group was a newcomer named Mr. R. His avatar was black.
Teng Shu is the administrator of this group. Before he could take a closer look, other administrators let this person in, and Teng Shu didn't care.
He also saw someone coming in with A'du's name and avatar, and after asking, he found out that the other person was A'du's little fangirl.

119. Chapter 119 Teng Shu: I don’t understand, but I am shocked
119.
"How are the sales of Rotom's new mobile phone?" Teng Shu asked Zoroark. The new member joined the group yesterday and then went silent. Teng Shu did not pay too much attention to him. He was more concerned about the sales of his partners' mobile phones.
After all, Rotom is the first company to cooperate with Ghost Pictures, and the results of the cooperation with them will to a certain extent determine whether other companies will be willing to cooperate with Teng Shu and others in the future.
Cooperation is a good deal with huge profits. All Teng Shu has to do is to make excellent movies and hold the IP in his hands. Then, when the time comes, he can license the IP to other people and make a lot of money without paying anything. It is very cost-effective.
After all, the production of these is the responsibility of other companies.
"Not bad. The sales of the youth version of the phone have exceeded 500,000 units in three hours, the normal version has exceeded 700,000 units, and the flagship version has exceeded 10,000 units. It is currently sold out." Zoroark said to Teng Shu while holding the document, and Teng Shu nodded.
The flagship phone has Rotom built in, and the price is not very expensive, but Rotom Company always sells it in limited quantities, so the price is not very high. However, this also leads to Rotom's flagship phone having a very good reputation on the Internet, and the sales of other models of phones are also good. After all, although those phones do not have Rotom built in, they also have the smart assistant developed by their company.
"Boss, do you regret not asking for a share of the profits?" Zoroark said with a smile. He also had a Rotom cell phone in his hand, a regular version, but Zoroark didn't use it. He planned to use it to spend money. After all, in order to play games, he always bought the best gaming phones.
"What's there to regret?" Teng Shu didn't care. Although he might earn more from the profit share, he had already made his choice. There was no point in being a wise man after the event. Moreover, the reputation of Rotom Company should be the main reason for the popularity of the mobile phone this time. Although Teng Shu's ghost call was very famous in the small circle, it would not lead so many people to buy it.
To some extent, Teng Shu benefited from Rotom Corporation.
"Boss, you are really generous!" Zoroark gave a thumbs up and flattered him with a smile, but there was a sense of incongruity between this dignity and the tone.
"Okay, I know what you want to do, go ahead, there's nothing to do in the company today." Teng Shu rolled his eyes. There was a comic convention being held in Kanaz City this afternoon, and Zoroark's heart must have already flown there.
Teng Shu didn't have any other schedule today. Ghost Pictures was his one-man show. If Teng Shu wanted to make a movie, the company would have things to do. If Teng Shu didn't want to, the company would be very idle. Right now, it was probably only Adana and his crew who were working hard to shoot a new Tom and Jerry movie.
To some extent, this is not very normal. The film companies in the past basically did not have such an easy life.
Zoroark happily left the house, but after a while, it came back in, which made Teng Shu stunned. Wasn't this guy going to the comic convention? Why did he come back again?
"Boss, there is a film company from the Unova region who wants to talk to us about renting personnel." Zoroark looked normal. Teng Shu glanced at it and knew that although this guy seemed normal on the surface, he probably greeted the family of the head of that company countless times in his heart.
"Go ahead and let Fawu come and handle this matter." Teng Shu waved his hand. It was just renting staff, not a big deal. It could generate income for the company, help employees improve their skills, and prevent them from doing nothing. It was really a win-win situation.
Zoroark laughed instantly and left happily. Fawu then came in and reported to Teng Shu about the handling of this matter. The other company came to shoot a campus idol drama, but did not bring all the stage staff, so they blamed Ghost Pictures.
Teng Shu did not refuse, but asked Fawu to bring the legal department to sign a contract, stipulating the time of cooperation and some other matters, and then he did not take care of it anymore.
The campus idol dramas in the Pokémon world can be considered evergreen. After all, this routine of [the protagonist enters school in poverty, then captures Pokémon, gains honor, friendship and love] is the kingly routine in the Pokémon world, and it has a large audience.
"Is it another one of those idol dramas that comes out every quarter and then flop silently?" Teng Shu stretched lazily. He just took a look at the director's online resume. There was a lot of information on it, but among the 7.2 TV series he had filmed, the highest rating was only points out of a total of .
However, there is only one movie that scored 7.2, and the others generally hover between 3.1 and 5.3, which can be said to be very stable. In the past two years, he has filmed three TV series, all of which are idol dramas.
"Love After the Gym Battle", rated 4.3 points.
"Love Between Two Elements", score 3.7 points.
"The Green Trainer Will Not Meet the Beautiful Genius Gym Master Girl", rated 5.1.
Well, these three TV series are the type that you basically can’t find unless you search for them specifically, but the most exciting thing is that the other party can still continue to make TV series. I don’t know who gave the investment. With the idea of testing the waters, Teng Shu searched for the highest-ranking one, "The Beautiful Genius Gym Owner Girl", and took a look.
Oh boy, each episode is forty minutes long, and there are fifty-eight episodes in total.
"Well, let me review it." Teng Shu took out his mobile phone and opened the first episode to watch. Then, for the first time, Teng Shu felt that forty minutes was so long, so long that it seemed like four hours had passed.
After Teng Shu finished reading it, he felt terrible.
The protagonist has no acting skills, and the heroine has a heavy accent. When she calls the hero's name, to Teng Shu it sounds like he is calling her grandpa. Then the heroine keeps saying "Grandpa, how can you bully me like this" in a clipped tone, which gives Teng Shu a headache.
That’s not all. The so-called absolutely beautiful and talented gym owner girl is actually an internet celebrity with a hot body and a face. She has so much powder on her face that she’s worried that it will fall off if she walks under a tree.
"It seems like there's no hope of learning any technology. But since the other party is so productive, he should have some experience. He should have some experience, right?" Teng Shu scratched his head. He was not sure. After all, the works of this director were so earth-shattering that Teng Shu could not understand them, but he was greatly shocked.
Finally, Teng Shu decided to go to the comic convention to refresh his eyes.
(End of this chapter)
120. Chapter 120 Fantasy Creatures
120.
The Pokémon world also has anime and two-dimensional elements, but the development direction of the two-dimensional elements here is a bit strange.
"Hello everyone, this is the cute and charming little fox~" Before arriving at the comic exhibition, Teng Shu saw a girl in a fur outfit speaking in a delicate voice. The fur was very thick, almost covering her skin.
This makes the girl look like a giant humanoid fox.
