The lead actor is finalized, but the casting is still not over because ......

There is more than one starring person!

Ren Future's role is Mebius, and in "Legend of the Super Galaxy", in addition to Mebius, there are also Dinah, the first generation and Severn.

These three people don't need to cast, just make a phone call and let the actors arrange the schedule in advance.

But the Leonix warrior with Rayblad's genes, Ray, needs to recruit an actor alone!

Where does this character come from?

For the role of "Ray", many Chinese viewers expressed incomprehension, and they were quite unfamiliar with this human hero who was "not like Ultraman".

Never even heard of it!

In fact, he is also considered an "Ultra Old Man", he filmed a TV series "Super Galaxy Monster Fighting" in 07, filmed the second season in 08, and then participated in "Super Galaxy Legend".

The big monster fighting series fictionalized a race called "Leonix", and a new "monster VS monster" combat instrument system was born.

The series received a good response in Neon, but it didn't do well in China.

Chinese audiences, especially Chinese children, when they see that there is no "Ultraman" in your drama, then they will turn around and abandon the drama on the spot.

For this reason, "Lei" is a "very unfamiliar" character in the eyes of Chinese audiences.

There is no doubt that Tsuburaya wants to praise him!

Therefore, the works of big monster fighting are endless, and Ray can also become one of the protagonists of "Super Galactic Legends".

But Tsuburaya didn't make it up, and that's true!

Compared with the traditional and popular "Ultraman fights little monsters" system, the Leonix system that uses the combat instrument "monster VS monster" cannot replace the former's position in the minds of the audience.

The audience can't see Ultraman, and they panic!

You say Leonix is strong?

I also admit that he is very strong, but you are just a human being who is less than two meters tall, and in the face of a behemoth that is often tens of meters tall, how can you reassure the audience?

Interesting, though, is for sure.

When drafting the plan at the beginning, Meng Lang thought about deleting the scene of "Lei" and leaving it to other Ultramans.

But then I thought about it!

The Leonix system, which is used to sell toys and develop games, seems to be really good, so it's better to stay and go back to the whole TV series to test the water.

So it was kept.

The actor Xiao Yan who plays "Lei" is a newcomer who has previously played soy sauce in "Armored Warriors", and Meng Lang is very impressed by him.

Very energetic guy!

Because of the name crashing into the protagonist of a certain popular online article, he is often ridiculed as "Emperor Yan", which is also an interesting thing.

At this point, the four leading actors are in place.

The first Meng Nan (Meng Lang), Saiwen Zhu Xingtuan (Wang Fei), Mengbius, Ren Future and Lei (Xiao Yan).

"Why is it only my real name?" Ren said shamefully.

Everyone has a "character name", but he doesn't, whether it's a character name or a real name, it's all the same.

"You don't like it?"

Meng Lang muttered: "Then I'll change it, Yang Future, Zhang Future, Li Future, what do you think?"

Ren Future: "......"

He didn't understand very well, why did Mr. Meng bite the word "future" and not let go? Could it be that these two words contain some "Ultra truth"?

"Bingo!"

"Congratulations, you guessed it right, the name of the future really has a special meaning in it. ”

"What's the meaning?"

"The future without the future is not the future I want!" Meng Lang said nonsense on the spot without blushing and heartbeat.

Not to mention, this sentence is so nice.

Knowing this character name, it was not that Mr. Meng deliberately teased him, but after it did have meaning, Ren Future no longer bothered about his "real name" becoming a character name.

"Alright, go back and get ready!"

Meng Lang glanced at the calendar and said, "Next Monday, remember to come to Studio 3 on time to report." There aren't many human scenes, let's try to finish it as soon as possible!"

That's the truth!

In the whole film of "Legend of the Super Galaxy" for an hour and a half, the holster scenes occupy the vast majority, and there are very few scenes left for human performances.

Meng Lang estimated......

At most, two weeks, or even a week, can finish filming human scenes.

After all, you don't even have to go out on location.

The four old men changed into costumes, stood in front of the green screen and read a few lines, and the scene was almost finished.

The big heads are all in the late stage!

Someone once commented on "Super Galactic Legend": Compared with "Ultra Story" in 1984, the Land of Light in "Super Galactic Legend" in 2011 seems to have changed from a tribe to a "future world" overnight!

No exaggeration!

In the past 30 years, digital special effects technology has developed by leaps and bounds, and Tsuburaya's financial embarrassment has also been alleviated to a certain extent.

Still, there are flaws.

The country of light of the super galactic legend is still too "childish". Except for a few buildings such as the "Ultra Arena", "Plasma Spark Tower" and "Assembly Square", there are no other buildings.

This made Meng Lang very dissatisfied.

He wanted to have a "bird's-eye" shot, looking down on the Land of Light from above, and immediately grab the audience's attention in the first 10 seconds of the film's opening.

This makes the special effects team head bigger!

A bird's-eye view of the Land of Light?

What should a bird's-eye view look like, what should the Land of Light look like, and what are the landmarks?

Pure special effects are hard to show!

It's not that the special effects technology isn't enough, it's that it's too expensive. Meng Lang's proposal is "half model and half special effects", complementing each other to complete this "opening bird's-eye view" shot.

Key buildings such as the Plasma Spark Tower, Ultra Arena, and Ultra Aeroport were built with realistic miniatures, while other buildings were complemented by Special Effect Maps.

It's so much more convenient that way!

Mr. Meng gave a specific implementation method, and the special effects team didn't dare to question anything, anyway, it wasn't their own money that was burned, so do it!

"In addition to the scene optimization of the Land of Light, the K76 planet trained by Sero also needs to optimize the scene ......"

As Meng Lang spoke, he suddenly thought of the scene where K76 resembled a crater in the original version, and shook his head.

The atmosphere was there!

But the desolation is not enough!

In the setting, K76 is an extremely desolate and lonely planet, and it is also one of the harshest planets in the universe.

The whole pale red sky in the round valley, and the lava and rocky beach ground, do have that smell, but it is not enough, it should be a little more "desolate and lonely"!

What the?

You ask this harsh environment, how does the "ass cute" survive?

Isn't that simple?

Of course, it was brought up by Young Master Sai to relieve the loneliness of the "favorite concubine"!

There are four main scenes in Super Galactic Legends, in addition to the Land of Light (normal) and the K76 planet trained by Sero, there are also the Land of Light (Frozen) and the Monster Graveyard.

These two places need to be optimized as well!

Not to mention the Frozen Land of Light, the original version is quite good, and you only need to optimize the details of "Wind and Snow" and the ice effect.

But the Monster Graveyard ......

To be honest, what's the difference between this and K76? It's not feature-free, and I don't see anything special about the "Monster Graveyard" at all.

"Okay, I've got it all down!"

Yang Ping closed the notebook and asked, "Mr. Meng, is there anything else I need to arrange?"

"No ......"

As soon as Meng Lang finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, and said: "I almost forgot, there are also holster actors! You ask the holster center, how many holster actors can be selected at most?"

"Good...... Is it in high demand?"

"It's not very big, mainly when Beria makes trouble in the Land of Light, it needs some people to support the scene...... Create that crowd feeling, you know?"

Meng Lang gestured: "They don't need to make a move, they just need to put on a simple leather case and get together to compare the fighting starting style!"

Abbreviated as "Dragon Ao"!

This kind of mystery, even "beaten" them can't take their turn.

After all, the Ao who can be beaten by Beria are at least the Ao who "have a name and a surname", such as Lao Mai...... Like this kind of "nobody" Ao, who is responsible for onlookers, is done.

Hearing this, Yang Ping suddenly had an idea: "In this case, the requirements for leather suit actors are not high, can volunteers be used?"

"Hmm...... Yes!"

Meng Lang nodded.

In the legend of the Super Galaxy, there are too many dragons. It would be a bit of a waste to arrange "professional-grade" holster actors for each one.

Just ask for volunteers!

As soon as these volunteers heard that they could show their faces in the "Ultraman movie", they came here without paying and bringing their own dry food.

Go back and customize a batch of "commemorative figures" for them, and each of them will receive a letter from Uncle Meng's own hand...... A hand-printed thank you note, can't you be crazy with joy?

Maybe......

After being squeezed by him, he went home and leaned against the balcony railing, took a selfie with the moonlight and the "thank you letter", and sent it to the circle of friends with the text: "My youth has no regrets!"

You can also win a lot of likes!

Old leek......

has not been harvested by Uncle Meng for five years and ten years in the IQ tax, and generally can't do this kind of thing.

As expected!

The recruitment of holster volunteers, after the opening of the registration channel for various universities in Jiangchuan, was full in just one day.

The students are getting active!

This group of college students are basically primary school students and junior high school students when Meng Lang debuted, and their love for Meng Lang may be stronger than that of his "girlfriend".

Eat and stay?

No, you don't!

Not paid?

Doesn't matter!

As long as I can participate in Uncle Meng's big movie, I am not afraid of no matter how hard and tired I am, after all, this is a childhood long-cherished wish!

There are a total of 100 places for leather case volunteers, and creating "simple leather cases" for this group of people has become the most troublesome thing in the props center.

Although it is a simple version, the workmanship does not need to be so delicate and durable, but this thing is a leather case after all!

Collect the height and weight of each volunteer and tailor a suitable Ultraman holster. This workload itself is not small, and it is necessary to make differentiation to ensure that every Red and Blue Ao does not "bump into the face" of other Olympic ......

The holster master is going crazy!

Fortunately, Meng Lang felt sorry for them, and said at the meeting that "all the monster holsters are in stock", otherwise they would have to resign en masse.

"The holsters of Mebius, Sero and Beria use more snacks! These three holsters will be used for many years if nothing else......"

"Okay, Mr. Meng!"

After arranging all the work at hand, I haven't experienced busyness for a while, and Meng Lang, who is nearly forty years old, actually feels a little tired.

But he can't rest yet.

In addition to the start of production of "Super Galactic Legends", the Neon Division has also launched the production of "G4 Project".

This project, he is also paying attention to.

Kamen Rider AgitΩ: Project G4 is based on the G3 and G3-X armor that were popular in TV dramas, and it is also a commemorative theatrical version to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Kamen Rider and the 50th anniversary of Toei.

If he's not mistaken, the original G4 is planned in Neon and seems to have achieved a high box office of 1.25 billion yen!

Want to know how high this box office is?

Compare it with Uncle Tsuburaya next door, "Super Ultra Eight Brothers" is about 840 million yen, and "Super Galaxy Legend" is about 630 million yen, do you say the box office of the G4 plan is high?

This is twice as much as "Super Galactic Legends"!

It can be seen that Tsuburaya is really pulling his crotch in the field of movie theater version, and he is pulling his hips in the ultimate! No big movie has a neon box office that exceeds 1 billion yen, which is outrageous!

Uncle Tsuburaya, please don't make a movie! Let's go back to the TV series, don't be angry with this......

Jokes are jokes!

The original G4 plan can achieve such excellent box office results, and it is undeniable that it has "TV blessings".

As Kamen Rider with the highest ratings in Heisei, AgitΩ is not low in popularity in Neon Local, and it is normal for the spin-off theatrical version to achieve this box office.

And what about the PD version?

The advantage is obviously even greater!

First of all, the first point is that the G3 armor in the PD version of "Kamen Rider AgitΩ" is used by "Kaoru Ichijo", which is a huge advantage.

Secondly, the second point is that the ratings of the PD version of AgitΩ are not much worse than the original version, and it has achieved better results in China, Europe and the United States.

Based on the above two points, the PD version of the G4 plan should achieve a higher box office than the original version.

This is also Meng Lang's expectation.

The "box office target" he set for director Omori is 1.5 billion yen, and there is a bonus for reaching the standard, and if he doesn't meet the standard, he will be criticized!

Omori said the pressure was high......

It's the era of "Kamen Rider 555", and the big guys are all attracted to "Faiz", who still watches your outdated "AgitΩ" theatrical version?

Shooting this last year, he is still confident that he will achieve his goal, but this year it will be difficult!

"Don't be discouraged!"

Meng Lang encouraged Omori over the phone: "There is still a lot of hope, at least not long after AgitΩ ends, fans are still looking forward to G4's ......"

That's just as well!

The G3 circle has countless fans, and it has become the recognized "second ride" of AgitΩ. The launch of the G4 must have been looked forward to by many people.

"That's right!"

Meng Lang suddenly asked, "G5, G6, and G7, have you all registered?"

"Registered!"

Omori replied, "I registered last year, but it's just ......."

"Just what?"

"Something went wrong...... Some Chinese students took out our registration information and pointed at the G8 knights...... "Omori is branched.

Knight G8?G8 Knight?

Ah......h

This name is really inappropriate!

Meng Lang couldn't help but smile, pretending to be calm and said: "Then let's clarify, we registered this number only to launch toys, not to shoot new works." The serial number of G8 will not appear in the toy products, please rest assured!"

Feel relieved?

How can you rest assured!

Everyone wants to buy a G8 Knight collection, how can you not sell it?

No, it must be sold!

No matter how expensive you are, buy it!
