Chapter 128: The Most Terrifying Alien Creature! (Ask for a commuter pass!) )
"The screenwriting team now has two scripts to write, "Death is Coming 2" and "To Youth", so I'll write this script."
Wang Shang began to return to his busy life, playing with his parents during the day, and then going back to the hotel at night to write the script, but seeing his parents' happy looks, he felt that it was worth it.
When the royal father and queen mother knew that Wang Shang was writing about Tang Bohu's three-laughing marriage, they were also a little surprised, and there was a trace of excitement.
……
Late March 2004.
After half a year of hard work, Feilong Animation Group finally made the first 16 episodes of Transformers, and booked the TV station for broadcasting - National Television Children's Channel. At the same time, 1 million copies of the comic book have been printed and are ready to be released to the market after the premiere.
And Mickey Toy Group has also made toys for several important characters of Transformers, and has prepared more than 100,000 sets. The large-scale models of 'Optimus Prime' and 'Megatron' in the exhibition hall welcomed many visitors to watch the group photo every day, which added a lot of popularity to the Mickey Group.
Later, the Mickey Group also added large models of other characters such as "Bumblebee" and "Shockwave" for people to see.
Wang Shang, who was playing and writing the script, soon received a call from the chairman of the Mickey Group: "Wang Dong, three days later, it will be time for "Transformers" to be officially put on the market, and you will appear at that time!" ”
"Yes, definitely!!"
Later, the Feilong Group also called and said similar things, they were all afraid that Wang Shang would play hide and seek. If it doesn't appear, it will definitely detract a lot from the press conference.
March 25th.
Wang Shang finally appeared at the press conference jointly organized by Tianwang Studio, Feilong, and Mickey.
When he appeared, the reporter was very excited: "Sister! Finally appeared!! ”
Naturally, they rushed over to compete for interviews, and flash photography continued to ......
"Today at 17 o'clock, the first season of the "Transformers" anime will officially premiere on the children's channel of national television!"
"The books and toys of "Transformers" will be shipped to sales outlets across the country today, and they will be officially launched on the 27th.
After the press conference, logistics trucks continued to leave the magic capital and all parts of the country, transporting the carloads of comics and toys to sales outlets in various provinces and cities.
The two large group companies are well-known animation and toy manufacturers in China, and they have been operating very well in terms of sales channels. Almost every city has its own directly managed stores. Other non-directly operated outlets are located all over the country.
That night, on the children's channel of national television, the first and second episodes of "Transformers" were broadcast on time.
Wang Shang also opened the channel on time and watched it. The animation screen uses a lot of CG technology. The picture sense is super strong. Each character has different characteristics. It's not a decent square shape, it's similar to the image of the movie version of "Transformers".
And from the battle, the scene, and the transformation are extremely gorgeous in all aspects, compared to the first season of cartoons in the eighties of the previous time and space. It's so much better on the screen......
In the eyes of Wang Shang, who has seen countless wonderful animations, this "Transformers" animation feels very good, and in the eyes of countless Transformers fans, it is even more superb!!
The vast and magnificent cosmic setting alone has already opened the eyes of these people.
There is also the extremely shocking planet Cybertron, dazzling transformations, and gorgeous battles, which always make them excited.
"This planet Cybertron is truly domineering! It's like a war fortress planet! ”
"This transformation is so dazzling!!"
"This Optimus Prime and Megatron are so handsome, exactly like the big model in the showroom!!"
One by one, the audience kept exclaiming.
The next day, Friday, the whole country was talking about the plot of "Transformers" last night, excitedly promoting their viewing feelings.
"It's a really amazing movie, I never thought that extraterrestrial life out there would be like this......"
"It's not just a children's anime, it's perfect for young people and even middle-aged people to watch......"
On the third day, Saturday, is the rest day, and on this day, comics and toy sales outlets across the country begin to go on sale.
As soon as it went on sale, the various sales outlets welcomed a large group of Transformers fans.
There is a long queue in front of each store, most of them are teenagers, some parents bring their children, and some people in their thirties come in groups......
"I want three sets of comics!! There are also three models of Optimus Prime and Megatron!! ”
"I want a set of comics! And a bumblebee!! ”
"I want a set of comics! Give me one of all the character models! ”
The sales scene is extremely hot!!
Countless people quickly handed over the money to the salesperson, happily and excitedly took the comics and toys, and left happily, ready to go back to show off.
The next day, Flying Dragon Animation and Mickey Toys got the sales figures fed back from various outlets across the country.
Nearly 300,000 copies of the manga were sold!
And 700,000 models were sold! Among those models in, Optimus Prime is the most popular and has been out of stock ahead of schedule! And there are some other popular toy models that are almost out of stock.
The toy stock prepared by the Mickey Toy Group is almost depleted!
While the chairman of Mickey Toys scolded himself for underestimating the level of market consumption, he quickly instructed each assembly line to work overtime to quickly produce products and ship them to various places for emergency relief.
In the "Transformers" section opened up on the official website of Tianwang Studio, countless netizens ran up to participate in the discussion of Transformers, from the plot to the setting, to the characters, they all wanted to share their experiences with others......
The hot sales of "Transformers" anime products have made many people jealous. And these things are selling so well, which shows that the market for "Transformers" movies is very large.
And Paramount has obviously been paying attention to this, and after seeing the hot sales, it once again proposed to make a joint venture film, but Wang Shang temporarily refused.
This news was quickly spread outside by well-informed media, and countless fans admired Wang Shang even more: "The king is so awesome that he even refused to cooperate with Paramount!" ”
Throughout late March, "Transformers" became the hottest word in China, and countless people were conquered by the gorgeous and magnificent world.
Cartoons have accumulated a lot of faithful wire, and the sales of comics and toys continue to be hot!
……
The launch of the "Transformers" anime and the sale of toys announced the official end of the mission of the manga team of Tenno Studios for "Transformers".
There was a faint reluctance and inexplicable joy in the whole team.
From the beginning of the creation of the "Transformers" comic to now, it has been a year and a half, during which more than a dozen people have devoted almost all their energy here, and now that it is over, there is always some reluctance.
But thanks to Wang Shang's generosity, the author written in the "Transformers" comics, each of them has a share, and now they can be regarded as successful and famous in China.
A few days ago, I also received congratulatory text messages from many classmates, and of course, some text messages with obvious envy, jealousy and sourness, which made them secretly proud.
As for the brothers, sisters, and sisters who refused Wang Dong's recruitment, they are still working in obscurity in other companies at this time, and it is estimated that they have already regretted all their intestines~~
After the creation of the "Transformers" comic ended, Wang Shang did not let the comic team idle, but let them start the next creation.
"The king has a new mission?"
"Great! I can't wait!! "Everyone was excited.
"Okay, be quiet, this time I'll talk about the content of the story, you do the comics, and at the same time design the background!" After Wang Shang calmed their excitement, he continued, "In outer space, there is an extremely dangerous life form ......"
"This species is oviparous and viviparous, with basically the same appearance and structure, but after parasitizing other substances, it can absorb the excellent components of the host's DNA and use it to modify itself, and its appearance characteristics will be adjusted according to the host's DNA......"
With Wang Shang's dictation, a creepy and ferocious alien lifeform gradually took shape......
After listening to this, everyone in the comic group couldn't help but think of one thing: "If it runs to the earth, will it wipe out all the human beings on the entire earth?" ”
When I think of this comic group, everyone in the comic group starts to feel that the office is cold......
"This ferocious alien lifeform is called-alien!!"
The members of the comic group couldn't help but shudder as the name appeared.
That's right, Wang Shang assigned a new task to the comic team, which is - alien!!
In the former time and space, when it comes to extraterrestrial life, the first reaction is that the alien is an extremely ferocious and extremely strange deadly creature, which has agile and powerful skills, and a cold-blooded and crazy predatory instinct......
And its ability to continuously optimize DNA through parasitism is even more terrifying to countless people!!
The image of the alien can be said to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the former time and space, this lizard-like reptile creature has always been a nightmare for earthlings, and it may not be called an alien in the strict sense, but an alien monster.
When he was in the United States last month, Wang Shang was pleasantly surprised to find that neither the movie nor the game "Alien" had ever appeared.
After Wang Shang discovered this surprise, he was already accustomed to the idea of 'carrying', so he wanted to make this series of movies regain its glory from his own hands!
But Wang Shang thought about it, and still felt that there were major plot bugs between the "Alien Series", "Predator Series" and the later "Prometheus" in the previous time and space, and the background of the entire alien system was incomplete, and even some settings were contradictory.
If you shoot it directly, it's always a little imperfect......
So let's lay a good foundation first and then talk about ....... (To be continued......)
