TBS lacks attention to toothed wolves.

After all, this is a "late-night" special effects drama, and the scale is relatively large. They bought the broadcast rights, just to fill the schedule.

Upfront publicity is about zero.

Except for the PD Neon Branch, which put up posters in offline channels and invested in online advertising, there were almost no promotional activities.

This made the entire "Tooth Wolf" crew full of pessimism.

The aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys?

It's time for the eyeball economy!

A good work also needs a good publicity to be successful, and no matter how good your content is, you must let the audience know about it.

You can't be silent for many years, and by chance the audience turned it out and took a look, and exclaimed: "Shocked! There was such a buried masterpiece X years ago!"

Pull it down!

Winning in the future sounds great. But the premise is, can you live hungry into the future?

If "Tooth Wolf" is buried temporarily, it will be discovered after about five or six years, and it will be a big hit in an instant! But in the past five or six years, how many companies have survived?

Of course, PD can hold up.

Therefore, Director Amamiya himself has no objection to this arrangement.

He always believes that gold will shine one day sooner or later, and excellent works are not afraid of the test of time!

But he had to appease the actors.

The tooth wolf not only carries the investment of nearly 3 billion yen from the PD club, but also carries the dream of this group of actors to "become famous".

Maybe he himself has a very indifferent view of whether "Tooth Wolf" can become popular, or even indifferent. But this group of young actors can't, they don't have that mentality.

After learning that "Tooth Wolf" was scheduled to be broadcast on TBS late at night, the crew instantly panicked. The young actors were absent-minded, and there were many low-level mistakes during filming.

"Gentlemen!"

Amamiya took a deep breath and cheered everyone up: "We are the production team of the tooth wolf, and no one knows better than us how good the tooth wolf is!"

"If you have participated in the filming yourself, don't you have confidence in your performance, don't you have confidence in "Tooth Wolf"?"

Have faith?

When the actors heard this, they couldn't help but recall the bits and pieces of the filming.

"Tooth Wolf" is definitely a work of extremely high quality, and they can see this. From the script to the holster to the fight design, every detail has been polished to perfection.

Even if it is arranged in the late night file, with the excellent quality of "Tooth Wolf", it will definitely be able to fight its way out of the encirclement, right?!

Keita Amamiya's encouragement made everyone in the crew regain their confidence.

Although I am very worried about the prospects of this drama, will it be cut in half by the PD agency...... But under the assurances of director Amamiya that "he will never be cut in half", the actors still regained their composure.

Anyway, "Tooth Wolf" hasn't started broadcasting yet. Anything can happen until the ratings come out!

What happened to the crew, Meng Lang didn't know.

After his communication with TBS, "Tooth Wolf" was finally scheduled to be broadcast on March 20.

Before the official broadcast, Meng Lang asked Director Tao and Yan Tao and others to watch the edited film in advance in the screening room of the PD Building.

Art Gallery, Warehouse.

The obscene-looking curator is drawn to a box containing paintings by a woman's humming.

Out of curiosity, he opened the box......

"!!"

Yan Tao's eyes widened, and he pointed to the oil painting on the screen and said, "This ...... Isn't that a code?"

"It's art!"

Director Tao shook his head and said, "Young man, you don't understand it! Art is a thing, you don't need to code!"

The scale is really big!

The painting that the curator is looking at is a half-fruited woman. Although it is a work of art, this can also show how amazing the scale of "Tooth Wolf" is.

You let "Ultraman" and "Kamen Rider" appear like this? Then you can't be sprayed to death by parents!

"It's an adult!"

Yan Tao muttered, his eyes fixed on the screen.

The plot continues......

While the curator was looking at the painting, the woman in the painting suddenly burst out and turned into a monster and devoured the curator.

"This is Hora!"

Among the three people present, Meng Lang and Yan Tao have all understood the setting system of "Tooth Wolf" and know more about Hora.

Therefore, after Hora appeared, they immediately used a short description to instill the relevant concepts of "Hora" and "Knights of the Ring" to Director Tao.

The curator is devoured by Hora, and on the other side of the Tsushima family, the male protagonist Steel Tooth is practicing swords in a secret room.

Kaoru Mitsuki, the heroine who is long overdue, came to the art museum in order to hold an art exhibition, and happened to be targeted by Hora (the curator).

Just as the curator was about to trick Kaoru Mitsuki into the warehouse, an ugly and terrifying monster suddenly appeared in front of Kaoru's eyes.

Frightened, Kaoru breaks free from the curator and hurriedly flees the museum.

"She's the heroine?"

Director Tao was curious: "What ability does she have, why can she see through the monster's disguise at a glance?"

"It's really the heroine!"

"Her peculiarity probably lies in ......" Meng Lang pondered, "How can I say that she is the Horak Star?"

In front of the Grim Reaper schoolboy Conan, where to go to the dead man, and then there is Hora Buster Star Kaoru Mitsuki, where to go there is Hora!

Kaoru Mitsuki, who is clearly set to be "contaminated with Hora's blood", will have a lot of Hora looking for her. As a result, when I saw the back, I realized that this was Hora looking for her, obviously she was looking for Hora!

What kind of wacky "constitution" is this?

Of course, this is a joke!

Kaoru Mitsuki is indeed "magical", and her magic mainly comes from two aspects. On the one hand, after being contaminated with Hora's blood, he is no longer an ordinary person.

On the other hand......

All this time, Kaoru Mitsuki has always dreamed of golden knights and monsters. Every time she looks at the picture book left by her dad and is attacked by a monster, there is always a golden knight to save her!

What is it called?

Destiny heroine!

In the plot, Kaoru Mitsuki went to find a psychiatrist. The curator also attacks a woman, devouring her body and soul, and Steel Fang is tasked with coming to the art museum.

Zaruba, who can not only speak, but also detect Hora's traces, tells Steel Fang that evil is hidden in the museum.

The toothed wolf of flowing water, the zaruba of iron!

For the "Tooth Wolf" series, Zaruba is undoubtedly an extremely important character.

His reminder made Steel Tooth walk into the art museum, and then he saw Kaoru Mitsuki......

Steel Fang thought that Kaoru Mitsuki was the hidden Hora, but when he tried it with the magic guide flame, he realized that she was not.

"This lighter is kind of interesting!"

Meng Lang grinned and said: "You say, if it is developed into a toy, or simply made into a lighter, is there a head?"

"There should be!"

Yan Tao pondered: "If it were me, I might buy a lighter like this, and I would light it and play if I have nothing to do!"

"Hmm!"

Meng Lang made a note of this, and then continued to look at the screen.

Steel Tooth has discovered the curator's anomaly and asks Kaoru Mitsuki to deliver it to her as the buyer of the painting, so as to break her up.

Unexpectedly, after Hora was exposed, the entire art gallery was immediately sealed. Not only could the paintings hanging on the wall not be removed, but the door could not be pushed open.

Steel Fang fell into a trap and solved the Red Samurai with difficulty, and when he came out, he found Hora who wanted to take Kaoru Mitsuki away.

The battle begins!

After forcing Hora out of the painting's true body and using the magic flame to force Hora out of the painting, he summoned the golden wolf's head armor and transformed into a golden knight wolf.

According to the traditional practice of tokusatsu effects, the first villain or monster to appear is usually a weak chicken. This Hora was no exception, and was easily taken away by Steel Fang's KO sword.

But unfortunately!

Hora's blood was splashed on Kaoru Mitsuki's body, and according to the rules of the Lord of the Rings, all humans who were contaminated with Hora's blood were to be "killed".

Steel Tooth was about to make a move on Kaoru Mitsuki, but Kaoru Mitsuki backhanded a "fainting on the spot", not only saving his life but also getting the treatment of being sent home by the "Golden Knight" once.

At the end of the story, when Kaoru wakes up to find the steel tooth beside her, she realizes that everything before was not a dream.

She was very angry because the exhibition she was thinking about was ruined by the stinky man in front of her.

After all, Gangya is a "son" from a big family, and he apologized to her very calmly, and said that he really liked Kaoru Mitsuki's paintings, and took a painting with him when he left.

Watching the mysterious man leave, recalling everything he had seen before, Kaoru fell into thought.

And then she reacted!

Falk Squid!

You haven't paid yet!

This is the end of the first episode.

As for why Hora attacked humans, what kind of human is Kaoru Mitsuki, what is the origin of the mysterious steel fang, and why didn't he kill Kaoru according to the rules?

These doubts can only be answered later.

As a work with a special theme, Meng Lang asked Yan Tao and Director Tao to appreciate Keita's unique style together, and also wanted to hear their opinions.

"Great work!"

Yan Tao praised without hesitation: "It has a very strong personal style, and it belongs to the kind of work that is unconventional." In today's routine-based template, this work has a lot of room to play!"

"Do you think 'Tooth Wolf' would have been a success if it had maintained this quality?"

"What is your definition of success?"

Yan Tao explained: "If it was an artistic success, I think the tooth wolf had already done it. If it is a commercial success, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve due to the type of subject matter. ”

"Do you want to introduce it to China?"

Director Tao lit a cigarette and frowned: "It's not me who hits you, if you want to introduce domestic TV stations at this scale, you must delete adult content!"

"I know ...... this"

Meng Lang didn't think about moving "Tooth Wolf" to China as it was.

After all, the environment of the two countries is different.

If you want to introduce it through formal channels, it is necessary to delete some shots.

But after the deletion, does "Tooth Wolf" still have the same flavor as before? Will it be missing a little bit of essence?

"What then?"

Director Tao spread his hands and said: "The scale is so large, and it is the most popular special drama for children." If you don't take the initiative to cut it, then don't think about broadcasting. ”

"What about on-demand?"

"Yes, but it has to be cut!"

Director Tao explained: "Maybe the online version will retain more content than the TV version, and the deletion will not be so great. ”

"Then go online on demand!"

The tooth wolf moved to the domestic TV station, and there were too many scenes that needed to be deleted. With such a cut, most of the toothed wolves are ruined.

The online platform, since the scale is larger than the TV platform, then go to the online platform and retain more essence.

"The holster is pretty cool!"

Although during last year's carnival, Yan Tao had already heard of the holster of the "toothed wolf", which would be the "Golden Knight".

But how can words describe it compared to the shock brought by the "physical video"?

I have to say!

This glittering gold leather case left a deep impression on Yan Tao! The so-called "local tyrant gold" color scheme is damn charming!

"Mr. Meng, is this holster costly?" he couldn't help but ask.

"Pretty tall ......"

Meng Lang glanced at Yan Tao and said speechlessly, "Why are you asking this? Do you also want to make this type of holster?"

"No, no, no!"

Yan Tao said excitedly: "I mean, if you think it's feasible. How about I'm going to make an Ultraman Gold?"

Meng Lang: "......"

Ultraman Kim?

Glittering in gold, a colourful chronograph on the chest, set with diamonds. At the wrists and knees, a few rubies and sapphires are set......

This is also vulgar!

Meng Lang, who had goosebumps all over his body, waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and pull it down! Do you know how much this leather case of the tooth wolf burned me?"

"How much?"

Yan Tao said curiously: "Could it be made of pure gold?"

"Not really!"

Meng Lang raised two fingers and said, "Amamiya has made two leather cases, one is gold-plated real shooting, and the other is metal for CG motion capture!"

The two holsters cost about 50 million yen. According to the current exchange rate, it should be more than three million soft sister coins.

Among them, the gold-plated holster accounts for the majority! The motion capture holster is a little cheaper!

"It's just gilding, as for spending so much money?"

Yan Tao was puzzled: "Could it be that there is any mystery hidden here?"

"Of course!"

Meng Lang explained: "You have also seen the real shooting effect, it is glittering, right?"

"The normal gold-plating process can't do this kind of golden effect all over the body. After all, the light and angle are different, some parts flash a little, and some parts are a little darker......"

Yan Tao understood.

Because the armor of the toothed wolf belongs to the "irregular" shape. Therefore, with the normal gold-plating process, the shooting effect will be relatively poor.

Even if there is a gaffer to fill in the light and adjust the color in the later stage, there is no guarantee that it will look good.

So the new process is adopted?

I see!

When PD made the first "million leather case", that is, the metal hero Kaban, it also used a new process, so it pushed up the cost.

Now it seems that the reason why the tooth wolf leather case is expensive is mostly because of this gold-plating process that "caters to the camera".

The Golden Ao is out of play!

The new process has just come out, and the cost must be high. When the technology matures in the future, the cost can slowly come down.

Yan Tao was disappointed, but also impressed by the production team of "Tooth Wolf".

Gold holster!

It's definitely a genius to come up with this idea to win people!

If nothing else, the visual impact of this gold leather case is much stronger than that of ordinary leather cases.

Glittering, who doesn't love it?

He watched other special effects dramas, especially fight scenes, and the only feeling was "cool". And when he watched the fight of the tooth wolf, his face was full of "distressed"!

Are you armored?

This is clearly a one-piece banknote!

The protagonist is covered in banknotes and goes to fight with monsters, can the audience not feel distressed?
