"Can a witch turn back to normal?"

After watching the sample, Meng Lang couldn't help but ask Shi Sen, "What if...... A certain witch's character is very likable, and she is very popular after the broadcast, can she still be resurrected?"

"Can't!"

Shi Sen shook his head and said, "They are failed test subjects, and from the moment the experiment began, they have lost their identity as human beings. ”

"Even in the case you mentioned, there is a certain witch who is very popular and loved by the audience. We may make a series of side stories and specials for her, but resurrection is never possible. ”

It's a tragedy......

Utter tragedy!

In this drama, anyone will die, even the protagonist Sakura.

Merely!

Sakura is a perfect alienated lifeform that can be resurrected even if she dies once or twice. But the rest of the supporting characters, as "alienated semi-finished products", are really dead when they die.

"How is the ending arranged?"

Meng Lang took a sip of tea and said with regret: "Considering the Male Soldier Company series, you can't kill Sakura, right?"

"Sakura is an immortal!"

"Everyone will die, but she won't! Even if she kills herself, she can't die!"

"The last episode of "Alien Girl 2", titled "The Last Witch". This name has already revealed Sakura's tragic fate. ”

"I get it......"

In the eyes of the audience, Sakura is the hero who "eradicates the witch" and saves the world.

But in the eyes of the human government in the play, Sakura is no different from a "witch". No one knows if Sakura will get out of control...... If Sakura gets out of control, she's even more of a threat to humanity than all witches combined!

When the witch threat is not lifted, humans need Sakura, a powerful teammate.

If the witch is eradicated, the human will definitely turn the gun immediately and do everything in its power to eradicate the last "witch", the former hero Sakura......

A tragedy indeed!

As a perfect alienated lifeform, Sakura will never die easily. The human race against her must have been in vain.

But what would Sakura think?

She has always seen herself as a human being, and she has also stood in the position of a human being. As a result, the enemy she finally faced was the human race she was protecting.

What an ironic scene!

At the beginning, Meng Lang thought that the ending of "Alienated Girl 2" was mostly Sakura VS the strongest witch.

It's a pity that he underestimated Shi Sen.

Who would have thought that the ending would be Sakura VS human? There is no final boss in the ending, and there is no "justice will win", everyone is a loser.

"How did the battle turn out?"

"Lost, all lost......"

Ishimori explained, "In order to fight Sakura, the humans activated the [Life Leap] project. Attempting to use meteorological weapons to spread alienated cells around the world, artificially creating a batch of witch weapons, the results can be imagined. ”

"The Witch Weapon Project failed, and most of humanity was unable to harness the power that transcended the life level, dying in the process of alienation. ”

"The rest of humanity has also become a new new witch/wizard who has built a new civilization on top of the ruins. ”

"Sakura doesn't want to make a move on humans? Suicide was fruitless and chose to self-hibernate. Maybe after the scourge of alienation has passed? Will she wake up again? Integration into society with a new identity ......"

It's quite restrained!

Meng Lang also thought that with Sakura's degree of perversion, coupled with the endless high-tech weapons of human beings. This battle is mostly a "burst star".

The marriage was unexpected.

Humans fought desperately to the death, and eventually destroyed themselves. A new "Witch Tech Civilization" is built? The Earth is moving towards a new era.

Sakura is still too kind!

Even if it goes against humanity? She doesn't want to do it either? Rather, it is through suicide to completely reassure humanity.

She couldn't die, though.

You can't die by suicide, so you can only choose a place to sleep.

Waiting for the end of human death? A new civilization is founded. Many, many years later, when no one remembers the original "Alienation Disaster", maybe Sakura woke up.

A magnificent and romantic ending!

Because it's a parallel world line, Ishimori doesn't worry about playing like this? As a result, Sakura from other worldlines will not be able to appear.

In fact? Why is the ending so tragic? can't blame Shi Sen entirely, Meng Lang has to take at least half of the pot.

Because he said......

"The Alienated Girl series, at least for 10 years, there will be no new works. ”

"If you can, extend the timeline as much as you can. Let the audience completely die for the sequel, don't bother me every day!"

Ishimori thought so.

Ten years later, the president of the company is running five and he is running seven, most of which are black and white photos and hung on the wall for people to mourn.

In that case, what else is there to consider about whether the sequel will be a sequel or not?

Even after ten or twenty years, they are not dead, PD has not gone out of business, and the new president has decided to shoot "Alienated Girl 3", so it's none of their business!

Wouldn't it?

In the 20X0 PD, I can't even find a reliable producer, and I have to let two bad old men come out?

Meng Lang and Shi Sen both felt that "Alienated Girl 3" probably had nothing to do with them. Just have a good time and enjoy yourself first!

A sequel?

Sorry, that's the little black pig!

That's it anyway!

As for whether the little black pig will curse the two of them for cheating when he grows up, peeing on Shi Sen's grave, and signing a "consent to donation" for Meng Lang on the hospital bed, then who cares?

"Very good work!"

Meng Lang applauded lightly and congratulated Shi Sen on his sword.

Shi Sen smiled slightly, turned off the projector and said to Meng Lang: "I haven't filmed for a long time, and it's rare to get back a little feeling." President, I have a not-so-mature idea!"

"You say. ”

"Godzilla inspired me, even if there are no heroes, the mere destruction of monsters can stimulate the audience......"

"So, I wanted to make a disaster movie about the monster series. ”

"Yes, no problem!"

Meng Lang happily agreed: "The monster theme has endured for a long time, and disaster movies also have the potential to become popular, have you figured out what monsters you want to make?"

"Not yet!"

Shi Sen shook his head and said, "Do you have any recommendations?"

That's a lot......

Monster disaster movies have always been an evergreen in the film market. Hollywood also loves this genre, and every year it releases a series of monster disaster blockbusters.

There are endless excellent films!

Works such as "Python Disaster", "Alien" and "King Kong" are regarded as classic masterpieces by fans.

But......

There's a problem with all of these works!

The box office is also good, but only the peripheral derivatives can't make too much money!

Maybe King Kong made a lot of money!

But compared to another monster disaster movie, King Kong is indeed a younger brother-level character.

That's right!

Jurassic Park!

is also a monster disaster movie, Jurassic Park has achieved a double harvest of "box office and peripherals".

This is also the reason why Jurassic Park has made sequels one after another, similar movies such as Xenomorphism and Anaconda Plague, and the sequels have always been difficult to deliver.

Don't always think that you can make a sequel if the movie has a high box office!

Truck driver Cameron has explained that the box office can only account for about 20-30% of the revenue of a good Hollywood sci-fi film. The rest is all income from peripheral derivatives.

Transformers doesn't have as much box office as Avatar, right?

Why are Transformers sequels frequently released, and in order to shoot the sequel, Exploding Bei did not hesitate to "slap himself in the face", but Avatar had a difficult birth in the sequel?

You say trucker ink burns money?

For a capitalist, as long as he can create income, is he still afraid that you will film ink or burn money?

Of course, truck drivers have "idol baggage", and it is a fact that they don't want to ruin the IP of "Avatar".

But this can't hide the fact that Avatar doesn't make money without "Transformers"!

If Avatar can really make a lot of money, even if Cameron doesn't want to make it, the film company will find another director to shoot it for him, just like they did with "Terminator".

Pity......

Avatar IP is not worth much!

The well-shaped planet Pandora, including the supernatural "Avatar", performed mediocre in the peripheral derivatives market, and consumers did not eat this set at all.

On the contrary, it is the "iron monster" such as the Terminator and Cybertron robots that can earn more money.

If Meng Lang is a movie fan or an ordinary director, then he must respect classics such as Python Plague or Alien.

But he wasn't!

He is the owner of the company, and he must be responsible for the company's income so that he can pay his employees.

So his answer can only be "Jurassic Park"!

"Dinosaurs?"

After listening to Meng Lang's narration, Shi Sen was quite surprised: "I thought about sharks, spiders, and even crocodile lizards, but I didn't expect that what you recommended was actually a dinosaur!"

"Dinosaurs, of course!"

"Because dinosaurs are so unfamiliar, there is a lack of understanding about this creature. Have you ever heard the saying, fear often comes from the unknown!"

"Makes sense!"

Shi Sen nodded and said, "Because you don't know, so you're afraid, if it's a dinosaur, it can really satisfy this." ”

"Well, think about it first. ”

Meng Lang said with a smile: "If you have any new ideas, remember to communicate with me as soon as possible." I still have something to do, I'll talk about it when I have time!"

He said that there was something, not an excuse.

Just as he was chatting with Shi Sen, Chen Huan sent him a WeChat message.

Li Xinglong, who had previously cooperated with "Golden Armor Warrior" and harmed several Chinese film and television giants, suddenly visited PD Film and Television and asked to meet him.

Meng Lang was also curious!

Li Xinglong, the plague god, what is the reason for coming to him this time?

It can't be a collaboration, right?

To be reasonable, if someone else comes to talk about cooperation, Meng Lang can always raise a trace of interest more or less.

But Li Xinglong......

In the president's office of the PD Building, Meng Lang met Chen Huan and Li Xinglong.

"Mr. Meng, meet again!"

"Hello, hello!"

After all, they are old acquaintances, although they spray all day long on Weibo, but in private, everyone is a civilized person, so they won't fight when they meet.

Li Xinglong was very enthusiastic.

As soon as they met, they warmly invited Meng Lang and Chen Huan to go to Fuyuan Building to "have lunch".

Meng Lang declined the invitation.

"Director Li, just say anything directly, don't be so polite!"

"That's fine!"

Li Xinglong is also a cheerful person, and bluntly said his intentions.

It turned out that this guy hooked up with a big money again and planned to set up his own film and television company. This time, I came to Meng Lang, mainly to "repurchase" the copyright of "Golden Armor Warrior".

"Director Li, it's okay to mix!"

Meng Lang was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Li Xinglong to experience the frustration of "Mermaid Warrior", not only did not fall, but wanted to set up his own film and television company.

What the hell is this?

The three giants of the Chinese film and television industry, Leah, Haitian and PD were harmed by him one by one.

Just when everyone thought that this guy had offended the Big Three and would definitely not be able to mix in the future, he hooked up with a layman again!

Was it a courtesan in the last life?

This ability to pull investment and cheat money is becoming more and more proficient!

If you have this ability, what else do you want to be a director! Hurry up to Goldman Sachs, Da Mo and Xiao Mo to submit a resume, turn back to dominate Wall Street, and walk to the pinnacle of life, isn't it a matter of minutes?

Meng Lang admires this kind of person very much!

A natural "seductive goblin", he deceived a large amount of money to invest in him, and when he failed, he deceived another big money...... And so on and so forth, and it will always stand!

To be reasonable, he is convinced.

However, convincing is convincing, Li Xinglong wants to buy back the "Golden Armor Warrior", which is impossible.

Meng Black Pig is a natural Pixiu!

PD companies, which have always been "only in but not out", how can they have the tradition of selling out "ancestral products"?

"Not for sale!"

"No matter how much money you give, you won't sell it!"

Meng Lang's attitude was very resolute, and he said that he would not agree to Li Xinglong's request.

Although "Golden Armor Warrior" looks a little ugly, it is a well-known IP. Even if there is no sequel, the annual toy income can be more than 30 million.

Doesn't sound much!

More than 30 million a year, and the profit after deducting costs and taxes is more than 10 million. On average, every month, there are almost a million.

For the "richest man" Meng Zai, this money is only enough to stuff his teeth, which is really not much.

But you have to see who you compare!

For PD, the income of "Golden Armor Warrior" is insignificant. But for other companies, the net income of more than 10 million a year is already considered a "pillar industry".

Why sell it to someone else?

"I've got money!"

Li Xinglong also knew that it would be difficult to convince this black pig without some blood. Therefore, he also gave his sincerity.

Two fingers!

Hiss!

Meng Lang, who was still very resolute before, saw these two fingers, and his face changed suddenly.

Sell!

All can be sold!

There is no "non-sale" in this world, and the reason why you can't buy it is simply that you don't bid high enough.

As long as the money is given enough, let alone "Golden Armor Warrior". Even "Ultraman", "Kamen Rider", and "Super Sentai" can all be sold.

Of course!

If Li Xinglong has a great appetite and wants to buy Meng Zai's body and soul, then it is okay.

It's a pity he doesn't buy it......

The offer of 200 million yuan, without considering the impact of currency depreciation, Li Xinglong will have to operate for 20 years to return to the capital.

20 years?

Can the Golden Armor Warrior operate for 20 years?

If you say this, don't say that Meng Zai doesn't believe it, the old man in the park can laugh off his front teeth.

With the influence of "Golden Armor Warrior", without considering the sequel. At most, ten years later, this IP will be ignored.

Therefore, 100 million is a fair price!

Li Xinglong is willing to pay such a high premium and buy a "Golden Armor Warrior" that is "on the verge of obsolescence", of course, not for charity.

He had an idea, and Meng Lang also guessed it.

It's nothing more than a "bet" sequel!

As long as you buy it back, you can make a sequel with your heart. Not only will the life cycle of "Golden Armor" become longer, but it will also make more money because of the sequel.

As for whether you can win the bet?

No one knows!
