Feature Shows Extravaganza

Omori came quickly.

On the night he flew to Jiangchuan, Meng Lang invited him to have a barbecue at the night market. After they were full of wine and food, the two of them talked about business while squeezing their feet.

In fact, it’s not really a serious matter…

The news that President Ono was about to retire was hidden from ordinary employees, but not from senior management. Naturally, Omori also heard about it.

So before he came to Jiangchuan, he had made corresponding preparations.

The focus of the next decade may be linkage!

Meng Lang suggested: Multiple knights break the hybrid linkage of worldviews. This is a future that is visible and graspable.

I see!

It's not enough to have an idea, you have to put it into action to prove your ability to the audience, so that you can successfully take over the banner of Kamen Rider from Shirakura...

You mean, after Kabuto ends, I will direct the new knight? Omori said confused.

you misunderstood.

Meng Lang waved his hand and said with a smile: I want you to prove yourself, but I don't want you to stand out! If the next knight asks you to take the photo, isn't that going to put you on the fire?

That's it...

Omori reluctantly understood.

What the president means is that the new knight's exposure is too high and the audience's expectations are also high, which is not suitable for his debut.

So next year there are two new knights!

Shirakura released a New Knight project, claiming to be the successor to Kabuto, which instantly attracted everyone's attention.

All the pressure was taken away by him.

At this time, Omori is filming another Kamen Rider TV series. It has no attention, and it is not a follow-up to xxx.

Without expectations, why be disappointed?

With such a low starting point, there is no pressure exerted by the previous work, and it is easier to gain recognition and praise from the audience.

If the quality is decent, Omori can become a god in a battle!

With a successful TV series as the foundation, he took over from Shirakura and became the new talker of Kamen Rider, so it was a natural progression.

But there's a problem!

The premise for the realization of this plan is that the Kamen Rider produced by Omori must have the same level as the Replacement Rider, or even higher quality.

Where did the project come from?

Don't worry about this. I've asked President Ono to prepare it for you. This knight's name is Black! Meng Lang explained.

A plan that has been gathering dust for many years!

With this work as his debut, why worry about Da Sen not being able to convince the public?

What's more, this is a two-in-one version of Black and Black rx. If this doesn't work, then Omori might as well die.

Okay, I'll go back and take a look.

Omori didn't have much confidence at this time.

He has already thought about it. When he goes back, he will take a look at the plan given by Mr. Meng. If it doesn't work, he will write another one himself.

It’s about the future, don’t be careless!

After a hearty chat, Omori, who rarely made a trip to Jiangchuan, was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he visited a few old friends.

Among them is Yan Tao.

After Ultraman Max ended, Yan Tao, who was making milk powder for his children and worrying about the planning of his new work, warmly entertained Omori.

The two talked about Ultraman.

It coincided with the premiere of Seven X on Big Bird TV, and they started a conversation around this alternative Ultraman.

“Very nice piece of work!”

After watching the first episode, Omori shook his head and said, It's a pity that the children don't like it.

yes!

Yan Tao sighed quietly and said helplessly: The times have changed so fast. Who can tell clearly now what kind of heroes do children like?

When Tiga was broadcast, I thought that switching forms was the future of Ultraman. But now, it seems that this road has come to an end...

how could be?

Omori is a staunch supporter of polymorphism, and he does not believe that polymorphism is outdated.

It’s just that the gameplay needs to be upgraded!

May I ask, sir, what do you think?

Yan Tao rolled his eyes and said, Do you want me to learn from Kamen Rider Faiz and add a bunch of accessories to the transformer?

No?

Omori smiled and said: Don't you think that the current transformers are too monotonous? Is Faiz's accessory system really not suitable for Ultraman?

Don't be so messy...

One is a life-size hero and the other is a gigantic hero. How can they be confused?

Don't worry about being life-sized or huge. After all, Ultraman and Kamen Rider are both transformed heroes, right?

Omori argued rationally: Since I am a transformed hero, what's the problem if I make a fuss about the transformer?

Diversified transformers + multi-form switching, this is the answer given by Omori.

Yan Tao doesn't quite agree.

However, he also felt that the Ultraman Transformer was indeed too monotonous. Maybe the kids would like it more if it could be upgraded?

But how to upgrade?

Can Faiz's accessory system really be applied to Ultraman? Or is it a card system like Dragon Knight and Sword?

Yan Tao fell into deep thought.

He seemed to have caught some inspiration, but he was not sure, so he decided to ask Mr. Meng for his opinion.

But Mr. Meng is not at home.

The person who opened the door for him was Xiaotao. Mr. Meng went to the supermarket to buy vinegar and had to wait for a while before he could come back.

While waiting on the sofa, Yan Tao played the game Ultraman Fighting Monsters with Xiao Tao to pass the time.

I saw him picking up a Gatanjie and saying fiercely: Diga, you can't beat me! Just admit defeat!

I didn't lose!

Xiao Tao picked up the Tiga doll in his left hand and the original doll in his right hand. He clasped his hands together and said confidently: If one can't beat you, use two! Combine Ultra and you're finished!

Is this okay?

You are indeed Mr. Meng’s son, and your ability to cheat is no worse than your father’s!

When Yan Tao was speechless, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he remembered Xiao Tao's words.

Ultra fusion?

Doll? !

Yes, this is it!

Yan Tao reached out and grabbed Xiao Tao's first-generation and Tiga dolls. His hands trembled with excitement, and the problem that had puzzled him for many days was finally answered.

I know, I know!

Yan Tao went crazy.

Tao Mi, who had just come out of the kitchen to serve food, wiped her apron and was about to greet Yan Tao to eat, but Yan Tao disappeared.

Xiaotao had his hands empty and looked at her pitifully.

Mom, my Tiga was taken away by my uncle!

Tao Mi: ...

When Meng Lang returned home with a bottle of vinegar, Yan Tao also entered a state of seclusion.

He has an idea!

If the existing Ultraman is embodied as different accessories, it can be a doll, a card, or even a bottle badge keychain...

Anyway, any item will do!

Then you can combine any two accessories to transform into different forms.

This is a bit like the fusion that often appears in Yu-Gi-Oh!, using different Ultraman as fusion materials to create various new forms.

Wonderful!

When Meng Lang learned what he was thinking, he didn't care about the trivial matter of stealing his son's toys.

This is a debt system!

What is the core setting of the new generation? There is no doubt that it is the Otto microfinance system contributed by Hikali.

Accessories system?

wrong!

This is different from the accessory system of Kamen Rider. This is the Debt King system derived from borrowing power, and it is also the most suitable system for Ultraman!

It can be called the cornerstone of the new generation setting.

Meng Lang originally thought that if Yan Tao couldn't figure out this system, he would have to take the time to explain it.

result……

Omori's visit to Yan Tao this time not only pointed him in the direction, but also helped him find the most suitable entry point.

Sparkle Doll!

That's right, Yan Tao's first identified power carrier was various dolls.

In addition to Ultra figures, there are also various monster figures.

This is also a surprise!

No need to guess, the new work project that Yan Tao is working on is definitely related to Ultraman Galaxy.

only……

Although the carrier of the doll looks good, it is not the most suitable carrier. Getting a capsule is better than the doll.

Forget it, take your time...

Meng Lang thought about it, first practice with the puppet, and then get familiar with the operation, then he can try more carriers.

Don’t worry now!

Yan Tao just came up with this system, and it’s still early to complete the project or even prepare a new work.

Instead of thinking about this, it is better to think about how to deal with Li Wanbo.

Seven X is aired!

As expected, this drama was limited by its subject matter and failed to make much waves. We can only look forward to the awards season.

Meng Lang said.

If the performance of Seven X is not satisfactory and it is difficult to produce a sequel, he will compensate Li Wanbo with a brand new TV series.

It’s time to fulfill your promise!

Li Wanbo came to the door, and Meng Lang was too embarrassed to lie, so he could only take out a dusty project proposal from the dusty safe.

This plan has been around for some years...

Meng Lang couldn't remember exactly when he wrote it. A rough guess is that it should have been born at the same time as Metal Heroes.

It has been in the dust for at least six years!

The main reason why it has been put aside for so long and has not been thought about development is also very simple: it is not profitable enough!

Why is it difficult to get a sequel to Alien Girl? Doesn't it make money?

That's certainly not the case.

With the same budget of 100 million, you can earn 10% by shooting Alien Girl 2, and you can earn 50% or even 100% by shooting other works.

With a limited budget, the alienated girl was sacrificed.

In the same way, the reason why this project has been in the dust for many years is because its earning power is not as good as other works...

But times have changed!

The PD six or seven years ago had a lot of profitable IP in their hands, so naturally they looked down upon this bit of mosquito meat.

But six or seven years later, the hugely profitable IP has been basically developed, and the PD has enough money. They even filmed Alienated Girl 2, so why not this one?

Star God series?

Li Wanbo stared at the yellowing plan book in his hand and asked curiously: This name...could it be the Star God of the Universe?

Don't get me wrong, it's just the same name.

Meng Lang coughed and explained to him: This is a live-action special photo series that combines various elements. The first work is called Super Star God: Gran Saisha.

Twelve heroes?

Opening the plan, Li Wanbo was shocked by what was written on the first page.

There are so many people?

Super Sentai often has five or six heroes, which is already surprising. Unexpectedly, there are more Super Star Gods, including all twelve constellations.

A group of three, a total of four races, four giant super star god robots?

Li Wanbo's eyelids twitched.

This is too similar!

If Mr. Meng hadn't emphasized that this was a brand new series, I'm afraid he would have thought it was a new work in the Super Sentai series.

Is this okay?

Li Wanbo glanced at it briefly and expressed concern: Team heroes seem to be more popular in Europe and the United States, and the acceptance of neon is not bad. In our country...

This is a fact!

Team heroes are not very popular in China. Even the armored warriors are gradually reducing their number of summoners.

It is an unprecedented feat to bring out so many protagonists at once. Li Wanbo expressed concern about whether domestic audiences would accept this setting.

Don't worry, it'll be no problem.

Meng Lang encouraged: Even if you lose, it's me who will pay. I'm not afraid of you, so what do you have to be afraid of?

I'm just asking you, do you want to do it?

You've said so, how can I refuse? Do it! Li Wanbo grinned.

That's right!

Meng Lang laughed.

Compared to the anxious Li Wanbo, he is undoubtedly very confident.

This is the Star God series!

Although the overall popularity is not as good as that of the three major neon tokusatsu series, even Metal Hero cannot do it.

But this is not a problem with the work.

The three major tokusatsu series have been famous for decades, and the Star God series was born in 2003. How many years has it been in development?

On the one hand, it started late!

On the other hand, there are few works. After Super Star God and Phantom Star God, there is only one Super Star Fleet.

The late development is easy to understand.

As for the scarcity of works, the reasons behind this are complicated...

Going back to the beginning of the century, Toho was not willing to just shoot monsters because of the second spring of Godzilla, and decided to enter the field of special photography heroes.

On the other side, a certain toy company is also coveting Bandai's tokusatsu hero series and decided to get involved.

The two sides hit it off immediately!

From this, the Star God series was born. Many people in the production team are old people who came from the Heisei Godzilla crew. There are also many scenes and even scenes that pay tribute to Godzilla in the show.

Including the design of the giant robot, it also borrows part of Godzilla's shape.

Let’s put it this way…

Toho has teamed up with a certain toy giant, and the powerful alliance must want to go big and carve up the tokusatsu hero market cake.

Have the results been distributed?

not at all!

The cake has already been divided by guys like Toei and Tsuburaya. It was only in 2003 that I wanted to join the industry to grab a meal. Do you think everyone is a genius Keita Amamiya?

The Star God series has come to an end.

There has been no follow-up to this series. The reason has nothing to do with the quality of the work. The main reason is that the producers no longer want to make it.

The work is very popular!

Fantasy Star God and Super Star Fleet is not well-received, but at least the first work Super Star God was a success and was very popular with the audience.

Unfortunately it was short-lived.

The reason why Toho gave up had nothing to do with PD. The current tokusatsu market has not reached saturation.

Therefore, Super Star God can shoot.

As for whether you can continue filming the trilogy after filming, that depends on market performance.

After all, Meng Lang is very realistic.

The purpose of starting a company is to make money, not to do charity. If a project is not profitable, it will definitely stop the loss in time.

Indiscriminate banquets should be controlled. They are no longer polite. There are more than a dozen this month, and a family's two hundred is less than a few thousand...
