Feature Shows Extravaganza

I must admit that the results of the attempt to mechanically transform humans are not satisfactory. The ratings of this work are not good, and I have an unshirkable responsibility.

During the remote video conference, Shi Sen, who had heavy dark circles under his eyes, stood up and bowed deeply to the camera.

It was obvious that he blamed himself.

Comparing the ratings of Kamen Rider X with Mirror Superman, it is definitely an excellent result. Once the reference becomes the previous game V3, it will appear to be a failure.

The ratings were poor, and the sales of related derivatives were also unsatisfactory.

The belt lacks novelty!

This is real feedback from the market. The main derivative of the Kamen Rider series is the Knight Belt. The design is lackluster, which greatly discourages consumers from purchasing.

Fortunately, the SIC series was developed!

The SIC series of model and play products saved X Knight and also saved the PD Neon Division’s annual financial report.

As the saying goes, one learns from every experience!

The failure of Kamen Rider X made Ishimori reflect on the future direction of the Kamen Rider series. Is it to delve into the potential of mechanically transforming people or to seek breakthroughs in other directions?

The new Rider needs to correct its mistakes, move closer to the first game, and return to the true nature of Kamen Rider. A strange life-size hero drama full of mystery and strange elements.

Return to square one?

As Ishimori's speech ended, the executives launched an in-depth discussion around this proposal.

Some people agree with this approach.

Some people also objected, believing that the V3 mode is the future of Kamen Rider, and returning to the origin is tantamount to seeking death.

The core figure of the opposition surprised everyone. Because this person is not Mr. Meng and Mr. Ma, but Bai Cang.

what is this?

After all, Bai Cang can be regarded as Shi Sen's disciple, and he was appointed as the second generation of Kamen Rider by Mr. Meng. The prince opposes the emperor's arrangement. Is this forcing him to marry?

The Supreme Emperor Meng's face was expressionless.

As a person involved, Shi Sen didn't see much anger on his face. He nodded slightly, and then explained: From V3 to X, in order to pursue the cool form, the concept of the work has deviated too much from the first work.

Not only do we need a knight who returns to his origins, but the audience also needs it. Shirakura-kun, I hope you can understand this.

Bai Cang can't understand it yet!

But Meng Lang, as a bystander, could understand the meaning of Shi Sen's words. After all, Reiwa’s number one rider is also a locust!

It’s useless for the prince to object!

Amazon’s plan was approved by Mr. Meng and passed internal approval without any problem.

Ishimori also showed everyone the design of the new knight, including a more detailed original design.

One thing to say!

Amazon looks very abstract...

The prototype of his setting was originally a dragon in myths and legends, that is, a dragon knight. In the end, after several revisions, it turned into a giant lizard!

Compared with the previous works, the design of the leather case is more like the villain Monster, with no features of the knight.

Even if the shape is weird, the setting is also weird.

He has lived deep in the Amazon since he was a child. He has excellent physical fitness but has never learned human language. He is like a wild beast.

After being transplanted with a mysterious wrist wheel by an elder, his left arm became extremely powerful. Because of the elder's instructions before his death, he left the Amazon and went to Jiangchuan to find people.

“The story is fascinating!”

Apart from anything else, a savage who doesn't understand human language and writing ventures alone into the human world is very interesting in itself.

Not to mention, this wild man can also transform into a Kamen Rider...

Amazon's fighting style is also a highlight. As a savage, fighting is mainly about biting, full of primitive and wild violence.

A very special knight!

As a Showa cute thing, Amazon's ratings are not high, and its derivatives are not selling well. But in terms of influence and audience reputation, it is the top work among Showa Knights.

The reason is very complicated!

On the one hand, this is because Amazon has left a deep impression on the audience. On the other hand, it may also be related to Amazon's tragic experience.

There are only two seasons and 24 episodes!

There are many knights who have been killed by Aunt Dong. The reason why Amazon is a pity is not only because he is the shortest, but also because of his high quality.

Amazon's loss has nothing to do with ratings or audience feedback. Purely forced by the situation, Toei had to complete this work.

What a shame!

The tragedy of the original version will not be staged in Pengda. The new Amazon will never be able to finish the show in 24 episodes.

At least 50 episodes!

By the standards of a weekly drama, it would be aired for a whole year. At the same time next year, a new knight will take over the schedule.

Kamen Rider, never ends!

After Amazon's plan was approved, Ishimori also expressed in an extremely vague way that he was ready to leave.

Probably the year after tomorrow?

That is, around 2020, he will bid farewell to the Kamen Rider production team and engage in the work he loves. Maybe a cartoonist, maybe a photographer...

Meng Lang was not surprised.

From the alienated girl to the current Amazon, and even the stronger one at the end. Ishimori complained many times that the work pressure was so stressful that he couldn't breathe.

He didn’t want to do it for a long time!

After all, this guy is a cartoonist by profession, and the main reason why he got involved in this industry is that he can't stand other directors blindly modifying his works.

It’s easy to get together and relax!

Meng Lang agreed to him. Strongman will be Ishimori's farewell work, and after its completion, Shirakura will take over the Kamen Rider series.

That will be a new starting point!

After the meeting, Prince Shirakura went to Neon to prepare for the theatrical version, while His Majesty Ishimori continued to polish Amazon. And the Supreme Emperor Mengzi is addicted to boxing all day long...

The training is almost over!

After two months of training, in addition to eating and sleeping, they practiced boxing. The actors made rapid progress.

Xingyiquan is a first glimpse of the basics. Although the foundation is still shallow and the boxing techniques are not useful, it is not a big problem to use it to bluff people!

The key is……

Eight pack abs per person!

But it made Mengzi so greedy!

Can boxing also build abdominal muscles? Touching his belly, Meng Lang suddenly became interested and practiced boxing with the actors from dawn to dusk.

It’s a pity that the effect is very poor!

People practice boxing to develop abdominal muscles, but Mengzi's boxing practice not only makes him gain weight, but also makes him gain weight.

When faced with doubts, he always said with a smile: Practicing martial arts consumes a lot of money, so you need to eat more meat! If you are poor in culture and martial arts, how can you practice martial arts if you don't have enough food?

That makes sense!

Practicing boxing is just to find an excuse for gluttony. Anyway, the crew has stopped working, so I have to find something to do for myself.

At the beginning of November, the training ends!

The leather-clad actors and the five protagonists returned to the Armor Warrior crew one after another and began filming the most exciting fighting scenes.

At the same time, Metal Hero Gaban also set off a ratings boom in China. The secret of the sky-high price of the leather case was also revealed in subsequent episodes.

In the seventh episode, a theft occurred in a jewelry store in Jiangchuan, and the police had no clues. Using Galactic Federation technology, Garban found the criminals.

It turned out that this highly intelligent criminal used a specially formulated thermite to destroy the safe in the jewelry store using ultra-high temperatures.

Facing Jiapan's pursuit, the criminals used thermite to attack. As a result, the high temperature melted the steel beams, but did not cause any harm to Jiaban.

What a surprise!
