Lao Wang was not in a good mood, so he frantically put pressure on Li Xinglong, and Li Xinglong's way to vent his pressure could only be "shrews scolding the street".

However, this is of little use.

The death of the Arctic snow deeply hurt a large number of fans who love the Golden Armor Warrior. And ignoring the facts, the act of smearing "Pretty Girl of Light" with only one mouth is even more disgusting to many passers-by.

The situation has gotten worse!

Perhaps because too much money was burned in the early stage, the budget could not hold up, and the quality of the last dozen episodes of "Golden Armor Warrior 2" fell off a cliff, and the production shrank visibly to the naked eye.

In the end, it was rated as "unfinished"!

In the discussion area of the well-known film and television talk website [Sprout], the summary of the first hot review is very accurate.

"The beginning of the masterpiece, the stable medium-term, the ultimate unfinished! This word-of-mouth and rating fall more exciting than the stock market!"

"Not so much not so ......"

When the audience was bombarding Li Xinglong about the "shrinking quality" problem in the last dozen episodes, Meng Lang explained to him in private: "It's not that exaggerated! As far as I know, he should have wanted to keep some money for publicity, but he messed up!"

He's done this before.

Sometimes filming, filming is high, and a lot of budget is burned at one time, only to find out in the later stage that the budget for publicity is not enough, what should I do?

or confess to the investors, saying that they and the producers were derelict in their duties, failed to control the budget, and needed to chase a publicity fee......

Either learn to "make careful calculations", distribute the remaining money, give the majority of the money to Xuanfa, and silently smooth the gap without telling investors.

There is a high probability that the former will not work!

Confess to the investor and make him unhappy, so can you still find him to continue to invest in the next drama?

That's right!

Li Xinglong didn't want Lao Wang to feel that he was not capable, so he summed it up with the producer and chose the latter solution, which is very common in the film and television industry.

But he just messed up!

He did not allocate funds well, which led to a serious shortage of funds in the later stage, and the decline in quality can even be seen by the audience, which is his fault.

Fortunately, there are only a dozen episodes of crotch pulling.

If you start pulling your crotch from episode 20, or even episode 30, it's really bad.

The 40th episode began to pull the crotch, it's okay! The audience has watched so many episodes, and they have already substituted their feelings, and they will insist on watching it no matter how bad it is.

So, the results are not bad.

At least make money!

According to market analysts' estimates, Li Xinglong Studio should be able to grab 3-600 million profits in the next five years with this "Golden Armor Warrior 2".

That's net profit!

The production cost and publicity cost have been paid back as early as the "propaganda film fire", when Shonan Satellite TV purchased the first round of broadcast rights and the second round of rebroadcast rights at a high price.

Lao Wang scolded and scolded, for the sake of the company's money, Li Xinglong should be left.

But Shonan Satellite TV ......

The new drama bought at a high price did not perform so well. It is estimated that next time, Li Xinglong's new drama will not be sold at a high price.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Meng Lang.

Compared with the married "Golden Armor Warrior 2", it is obviously a recent hit, and "Beautiful Girl of Light", which has become a hit in the ratings, is more important.

It is worthy of the first generation of Q baby!

Even the most discerning fan is hard not to like this work. After all, the charm of a brother and a sister-in-law is enough to cross the boundaries of gender, age, culture and nationality.

Sports idiots, genius students!

These two characters, with the color system of "black and white", the hand-to-hand combat of fists and fists, and the emotional line of "partial lily direction", are simply ...... Fan harvester!

How popular is Mitsumi?

This has to introduce the concept of "Toei Imperial Three"!

The so-called Toei Gosanya refers to Toei's three major IPs of transformation heroes: Kamen Rider and Super Sentai ...... And the beautiful girl of light!

The first two IPs are known as the second of the "three neon special effects series", and there is no need to popularize science as successful they are. And Guangmei can be listed as the "Toei Imperial Three" with the first two, guess how terrifying the influence is?

A high-level once said: Ah~ The beautiful girl of pure and beautiful light is the girl's version of Kamen Rider Da~Da~!

So......

Boys racking their brains to become beautiful girls of light are actually not a very perverted thing, right?

"Female version of Kamen Rider" was a compliment at first, but later people found out, what does Kamen Rider mean?

Drive away!

Let me be a beautiful girl of light!

Jokes aside, "Guangmei", a classic IP that has been flourishing for a long time, is indeed worthy of being the treasure of Toei Town's "house", and its commercial value is not inferior to Kamen Rider or Super Sentai at all.

It's even slightly better!

After all, children's ability to accept animation is much stronger than live-action dramas.

And Guangmei's audience is not all children. Although I haven't surveyed it, there should be a lot of teenage otaku and otaku.

Originally born in 2004, "Beautiful Girl of Light", which set off the second wave of the "magical girl" craze, has launched more than ten TV animations and more than ten theatrical movies in a row as of the early days of Taiga or Zero One.

Each one is a hit!

However, the influence of this IP overseas is indeed not as good as the "three major special effects" films. After all, there are too many neon animation "giants", and it is difficult for Guangmei to fight their way out of the encirclement.

In addition, Toei's overseas policy is more conservative than that of "Tsuburaya", so that's it.

In fact, it can be pushed!

At this point, Meng Lang is very confident.

No matter how much time has passed and what changes people have experienced, "Magical Girl" will always be a passport to the world.

So he doesn't plan to learn Toei's "conservative strategy", but takes the initiative to attack!

Invest a lot of resources to promote and promote Pretty Girl of Light around the world. Try to spread the influence of this IP on the largest scale.

The Board approved the resolution.

Far away in Bolton, Lao Meng, the honorary leader of PD who is obsessed with the real-life version of "football manager" all day long, also designed a new jersey with great interest, saying that he wants to contribute to the "globalization of Guangmei".

Meng Tsai wanted to stop him......

In recent years, Bolton Wanderers has simply contracted all the jokes of "international football".

Jerseys are changed every season!

The IP is different every time, and it is also very creative. The FA and the fan clubs have protested against this on several occasions.

The fans complained!

Can you, a broken team, retain a little "football heritage"?

If you don't wear a good blue and green striped jersey, you have to do such bells and whistles?

I can't afford it!

Your jersey changes faster than the fashion week next door, and the fans are not billionaires per capita, how can you buy one?

It's so sad to be your fan......

Sponsor Nike is about to laugh crazy, sponsoring other teams, jersey sales are really in vain, don't expect how much to sell in a season.

But Bolton is different!

This broken team, playing in the middle and upper reaches of the Champions League, the ability to design jerseys, and the whole football world!

"Other clubs have to let us design the shirts, but Bolton Wanderers is the exception, we just need to provide the fabric!"

The president of Nike Europe laughed and said, "Maybe I should suggest to the headquarters that the design department go to Bolton for an internship......"

Take a good look at yall!

A football club, design new jerseys, launch new styles faster than your professional, are you ashamed?

Whenever the new season starts, the most concerned topic of various football media is not who scored in the opening game, nor is it the analysis of new tactics, but what kind of jersey does Bolton change when the new season comes?

Really......

Don't look at Meng Lang who doesn't listen to things outside the window, and only focuses on filming fairy dramas, but he also knows Lao Meng's every move in the country.

To be honest, I'm ashamed.

The team has never won the European Championship, but its reputation is better than that of the European Champion.

But he couldn't help it.

After all, it's his own father, and he's getting older, so it's rare to have one thing that makes him happy, so let him go.

As for the FA and UEFA fines, it doesn't matter......

Pay for happiness and don't lose money!

Besides, Lao Meng is right, the attention of the Premier League and the Champions League is indeed extraordinary.

The advertising effect is outstanding!

As a simple example, after the appearance of characters such as SpongeBob SquarePants in the Bolton jersey, the search volume for "SpongeBob SquarePants" spiked, and half of Europe knew about this "yellow sponge".

Therefore, he did not stop Lao Meng.

Anyway, don't want money, try as much as you want. Although the fan base may not necessarily watch "Pretty Girl of Light", it does not mean that there are no children at home.

There is always hope!

Coincidentally, "Golden Armor Warrior 2", which had just been sunk by Guangmei, also recently announced the strategy of "about to be promoted globally".

However, just after setting sail, he ran aground.

Li Xinglong set the first stop overseas in Neon, but several major TV networks in Neon, the high-level people are "good brothers of Meng Zai", which is a friendship of visiting custom shops together!

Can they give a good face?

Li Xinglong, who was inexplicably deflated, can only be understood as "neon is seriously xenophobic", and he went to North America.

There are also good brothers in North America!

Although I didn't go to a nightclub together, I took a photo with Meng Tsai and had dinner. After a few hints from Kent, president of PD North America, he still doesn't know what to do?

Of course, there are too many people in North America! There are many people, and it is inevitable that the news will leak, and Li Xinglong will know about it.

Boy!

As soon as the plane landed in Zhonghai, he couldn't help but post a "10,000-word essay" to denounce the evil behavior of a certain black pig in suppressing his compatriots.

As a result, there was no response.

Netizens let out an "oh", and then commented: "Did you only know about this now? Hasn't he always been like this?"

"Shameless ......"

In the face of Li Xinglong's abuse, Meng Lang smiled, and Quan Dang couldn't see or hear.

What is scolding?

If you have the ability, you will also go overseas to develop contacts, meet so many good brothers, and come together to suppress Meng Zai!

Meng Zai, who was too lazy to meet him in general, walked into the screening hall at the invitation of Yan Tao and Ma Teng to watch the final version of "Nexus".

To be honest, he's looking forward to it.

This sense of anticipation is stronger than any previous work.

There are two main reasons for this!

The first is whether the failure of the original version of Nexus casts a shadow on Project N, and whether it can be eliminated in the PD version.

The second is this drama, except for making suggestions, he did not directly participate in the production, not even a nominal producer.

It can be said that this is an Ultraman TV work that is completely detached from his "influence interference".

What will it look like?

With great anticipation, Meng Lang sat on the soft sofa and pressed the switch of the projection remote control.

Five seconds!

Ten seconds!

Two minutes passed......

Facing the dark screen, Ma Teng, Yan Tao and Meng Lang, who were eating melon seeds and waiting for a reflection, looked at each other.

"What's going on?"

Ma Teng stepped forward, patted the machine hard, and said, "It can't be broken, right?"

It's possible!

This internal screening room was renovated seven years ago, and the equipment was last updated, four or five years ago, and it is normal for it to malfunction.

Meng Lang hurriedly called someone to overhaul it.

The technician came in and took a look, and after a long time, he said, "The equipment is aging, resulting in poor contact." ”

"Tomorrow it's a new one!"

Meng Lang said anxiously: "I want to know, can it still be used now?"

"Yes, I'll clean the dust!"

"That's good, that's good!"

After waiting patiently for a while, the technician finally got the equipment ready. Thinking that he had come, Meng Lang didn't drive him away, and stayed to watch TV together.

Of course, this was proposed by Maarten.

"Leave him alone, in case it breaks down again, it's easy to solve!"

"Makes sense!"

Meng Lang accepted Ma Teng's proposal, and the number of people who watched "Nexus" became four.

No intro, no outro!

The opening is the feature film......

The bustling Jiangchuan city scene is displayed in front of the audience through a set of wide-angle lenses.

Lively street stalls, crowded intersections, salesmen with accents, and the honking of various cars...... Together, they form a picture full of the atmosphere of market life.

Through the narration of the protagonist Gu Yihui, the audience can know that there seems to be some unknown fear, hidden under the peace and tranquility, ready to move......

The other side.

A gas station in the middle of the night, like a bottomless pit of fuel tanks, attracted the attention of the gas boy. As he lay on the ground, wondering if the car was leaking, Pedron appeared.

As the first Xenobiotic to appear in the whole show, Pedron's body is very small, only the size of a car.

But it's scary!

Can you imagine the scene where two big men hugged each other and were so frightened by a terrifying monster that they even dropped melon seeds to the ground?

That's right!

is talking about Meng Lang and Ma Teng.

To enhance immersion, the projection room is devoid of lights, coupled with a state-of-the-art screen and intricately modeled special effects.

The effect is no worse than a horror movie!

Of course, fear is an instinct. Yan Tao didn't laugh at Mr. Meng and Vice President Ma, and when he saw this holster for the first time, he was also taken aback.

That's really disgusting and horrible!

Pedron's shape is completely a magnified "extremely ugly" mollusk, and the shape resembles a "slug"!

Do mollusks understand?

In terms of disgusting and terrifying, this thing is much stronger than ordinary monsters.

When such a big "slug" monster appears on the screen, normal people will be subconsciously afraid. In a sense, this design returns to the essence of "monsters".

Yan Tao still remembers that Mr. Meng told him:

"What is a monster? It's something that's used to scare the audience! But our current monster design is a bit contrary to the original intention, or the audience has accepted this aesthetic!"

"You let Gorzan and Gomorrah appear in a holster, not to mention scaring children, even the husky wants to hug it, who can scare it?"

He thinks it makes sense!

The original intention of the monster design was to scare the audience. If you can't even do this, then you will completely lose the role that a "monster" should have.

Therefore, he emphasized many times that xenobiotic beasts should not develop in the direction of "cuteness", but should be designed in the direction of "hunting and thrilling", and the audience must feel fear.

Pedron did just that!

It's a little smaller, but it's disgusting enough, scary enough!

Pedrón, who attacked the gas station, was soon spotted and attacked by the night raiders, burrowing into a tunnel.

The Night Raiders launched a second round of attacks, but instead of destroying it, they let it escape.

On the other side, Gu Yihui received a document for "checking his body". When he came to the designated place, he was kidnapped by a group of mysterious people, and his whole body was "checked" up and down.

"You've been transferred!"

Gu Yihui, who was inexplicable, took the entry form of the "Night Raid Team" and fell into hesitation.

Pedrone, who escaped, attacked a tour bus, and Gu Yihui, who went to report on the night raid team, noticed the anomaly and was then entangled in Pedron's feet.

Struggling desperately, he once again thought of the hand that stretched out to him when he drowned as a child.

"Don't give up!"

Then, a miracle happened!

The vicious Pedron was beaten to death by a clenched fist, and Gu Yihui looked up and saw a silver-gray giant in front of him.

"This is the ...... of the juvenile form"

Yan Tao, as the director, explained to everyone: "Just like human beings grow, Ultraman Nexus will also grow and have different forms. ”

"Oh!" Technician Xiao Li asked, "And what does the final form look like?"

"That's another Ultraman!"

"Another Ultraman?"

Xiao Li was quite curious: "What does this mean? Isn't the final form of Nexus still Nexus?"

"No......"

Yan Tao didn't want to spoil the truth, so he let this young man know the truth in advance, and said with a smile: "When you see the end, you will understand!"

"Cut!

He said he was dismissive, but the "tell me quickly" eyes betrayed him.

"Alright, I'll tell you!"

Meng Lang patted the technician on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Do you want to know the answer to your question? Do you want to know about Nexus, do you want to get the inheritance of light?"

"Go ahead!"

"The secrets are all hidden in the book, buy a copy of Noah: Nostalgia and you can get it all! The more you buy, the stronger you become!"

Seeing the young man's expression twitching, Meng Lang coughed and said, "It's not expensive, it's only 29 yuan!"

Ah......h

Ma Teng and Yan Tao, who were speechless with words written on their faces, really convinced Mr. Meng's business sense.

Can this also be used as an opportunity to sell?

It's not easy for a young man, you are exploited by working for you, ask a question to know the answer, and you have to pay to buy a book from you, are you still a person?

"Buy a few more!"

Ma Teng said with a straight face: "Noah nostalgia is definitely a rare good book, your relatives and friends, classmates and fellow villagers around you should take a look......

"That's right!"

Yan Tao also chimed in: "This book will change your life! I am an honest person and will not lie to you!"

Is it really that good-looking?

Technician Xiao Li nodded blankly.

The leaders all recommended it, it must be a good book, and he went to buy it after work.
