Chapter 203: Down-to-earth Saiwen
"Because the audience overlapped!"
If you have to be more serious, Ultraman can indeed be regarded as a science fiction movie. After all, Ultraman has all the elements that science fiction films should have.
But the audience is still "children"!
Major video websites, whether it is Penguin Video or Oil Depot Aiyiqi, can basically find special effects dramas under the "anime" category.
Even video websites understand the truth.,But there's a stupid comparison that I can't understand.。
Spreading!
This is a recognized crooked theory on video websites, not only video websites, but even the audience recognizes this classification.
If you want to find a popular Ultraman work, you can't find it after looking for a long time in the classification of live-action TV series, click on the anime classification, and it basically jumps out.
A large part of the reason why the real dragon hit the street at the box office was because it bumped into the three Ultra brothers. Between these two films, the children almost did not hesitate and instantly chose the three Otter brothers.
It would be much better if you changed gears.
Who made this guy have an iron head? Knowing that the three Otter brothers would be the first choice for the children, they had to squeeze into the Mid-Autumn Festival to be released.
Isn't this looking for death!
Meng Lang should not be able to see the director's complaints. If you can't figure it out, you can't figure it out, anyway, it's not him who hit the street at the box office.
His immediate priority is to negotiate a premiere date with TBS.
Severn is working on the fifth episode.
The first four episodes have been handed over to TBS for them to do the neon subtitle dubbing revisions.
At the same time, TBS also had to produce the theme song.
The original Saiwen Song must not be used anymore, not that the song is bad, but the Showa atmosphere is too strong.
There should be new music in a new era!
Meng Lang doesn't understand this aspect, anyway, the good brother TBS contributes money and efforts, and after making a sample, he just chooses a suitable one.
And just like that, the time entered the middle of October.
TBS finally finished its preparations and broadcast the first episode of "Ultraman Seven" at 9 p.m. on Dawn Day in the second week of October.
As the second Ultraman work of PD Agency, Saiwen's broadcast plan has been supported by many viewers.
Kotaro is also one of them.
As mentioned earlier, he likes Ultraman very much. The original Ultraman's β magic wand, he collected nearly twenty models. The refrigerator wall and bedside table cabinet at home are also covered with Ultraman stickers.
He has also seen the three Otter brothers.
It's just that the viewing process is very unpleasant, because when he was watching the movie in the back row, he heard someone in the front row muttering: "It's not as good as a knight, what's the use of being so big." ”
Another hateful knight!
Kotaro gritted his teeth and thought that one day, he would turn into Ultraman and pinch all the "fly-headed belt weirdos" in Kyoto to death.
The premiere of Severn made him very excited.
"Kamen Riders are shivering! Saiwen from the Land of Light has landed on Neon, and your good days are numbered!"
As a loyal PD fan, he went to Uncle Doma's toy store to buy Ultra glasses before Severn started broadcasting.
While β magic wand is good, it ......
One more choice, one more happiness!
No one can refuse a new product from the PD club, especially a transformer!
Putting on Ultraman glasses, holding β magic wand in his hand, and feeling the surging power of Ultraman, Kotaro turned on the TV.
"Earth Defense was founded in ......"
The Kote team was disbanded, and the newly formed Ultra Guard took over the defense of the planet. After the opening of the first episode, the first thing to introduce is each team member.
Captain Tongshan, who loves to play chess, has a serious appearance and is very "majestic as a chief".
Then there is Annu from Poland, the blonde heroine who dazzles all the viewers.
The second is the philosophical muscular man Bruce, a mixed-American and Japanese race, who likes fitness sports, muscular and reckless. He and Soga, who loves to tell bad jokes, are a pair of good friends, and they often go in and out of pairs.
Soga is a native of the country and a gentleman.
Finally, there is the tech-savvy poplar with thick lenses and a computer. He is from the same region as Captain Tong Shan and likes to study scientific and technological equipment.
This combination is very similar to Team Cotter.
Meng Lang's idea remains the same, as an organization that maintains peace on earth, its members should come from various regions, not be limited to a certain country.
Of course, there are unspoken rules!
The heroine and other team members can come from other countries and regions, but the two roles of captain and human body must be Chinese.
It's not that Sadako is right, but to avoid suspicion.
Especially the role of the captain, as an important force to protect the earth, the position of captain of the Ultra Garrison is definitely not a random choice.
Can you find an Uncle Black to play it?
I'm afraid I'm going to be sprayed to death!
The human body is okay to say, and the restrictions in this regard are not as big as the captain. In the selection of the human body of Guiman, Tsuburaya boldly used the half-breed. As it turns out, this doesn't have a big impact either.
Of course, it's limited to mixed races.
Directly on the crooked nuts, then it will be troublesome.
If it's the same skin color, it's okay to say, the local audience can't recognize it as crooked nuts, and the sense of substitution will not be bad. But if you get a blonde or blue-eyed or even a black uncle to be the human body, the audience will definitely not be able to substitute for it, and the local ratings are doomed to collapse.
Fortunately, Severn is not a foreigner.
Zhu Xingtuan's first appearance brought great freshness to the audience. The first time I discovered a tokusatsu hero, it turned out to be so down-to-earth.
He's a courier guy!
Kotaro knows that this is crooked nuts, but everyone has the same skin color, and the dubbing is also neon, so it doesn't look very awkward.
Besides, the big brother is very down-to-earth!
The first generation of human bodies is a member of the Cotter team, the first generation of knights is an IQ600 all-rounder, and the Kujo knight is a rich second generation with a wealthy family.
Looking at the tokusatsu heroes launched by the PD agency, it seems that they are all from a tall background.
Only this time it broke the convention!
Zhu Xingtuan wears glasses and rides a blue electric car to deliver express packages to customers under the scorching sun.
This profession is really down-to-earth. It is easy for the audience to have a good impression of this human body and associate it with themselves.
Even the delivery guy can turn into Ultraman and save the world, why can't I?
This is the reason why Meng Lang set this identity for Zhu Xingtuan, grounding is not a derogatory term. On the contrary, it is a positive word.
The "down-to-earth" Zhu Star Cluster, everyone has similar people around them. When he is saved by Severn and gets the opportunity to transform into Ultraman, will you feel envious?
Why would you envy him? instead of Meng Nan?
Because Meng Nan is a member of the Cotter team, his identity is destined to have nothing to do with ordinary people. And Zhu Xingtuan is a courier brother, and this identity is the origin of envy.
It's similar to the sudden demolition of a neighbor's house.
Crazy Cha Lemon!
Meng Lang is very good at mobilizing the emotions of the audience, and the identity of a courier brother is not enough. After Saiwen saved Zhu Xingtuan, everyone just became envious of the courier brother, and the picture turned and came to Zhu Xingtuan's home.
One person, one room, one sofa, two stools, two tables and two teacups!
"Sorry!
Probably worried that the aliens would have a misunderstanding, Zhu Xingtuan touched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly: "I want to save money for my sister to study and go to college, so I ......"
"You're doing a great job!"
Saiwen praised: "This is exactly why I chose to save you, you have a kind and upright heart!"
A simple line makes the image of Zhu Xingtuan more vivid and three-dimensional. Seeing this, most of the audience's envy will dissipate, and it will turn into admiration for Zhu Xingtuan's strong optimism, kindness and simplicity.
This style is very different from the original.
