Chapter 166: Pokémon
Zhao Chen was obviously surprised, he never thought that Shao Yifu's goal was "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", but the surprise on his face immediately put away his sword, and asked with a puzzled expression:
"Shao tycoon, you want copyright?"
"Yes, I want to buy the TV and film rights of "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", what do you think? The price is negotiable! ”
"Of course you can! But I only have one condition, and that is that it must be made well! ”
"Of course, this will not stain the classic "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty"!"
Shao Yifu was stunned for a moment, he originally thought it would be some harsh conditions, but he didn't expect it to be so simple. But at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little pressure in his heart, and if he wanted to satisfy Zhao Chen, he would need a lot of budget.
In terms of price, the two talked for a while, and finally Shao Yifu paid a high price of 2 million Hong Kong dollars to acquire the TV and film rights of "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty".
This price is not small, in addition to the great popularity of "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", the other is to sell Zhao Chen a face, after all, Zhao Chen sells scripts in millions.
Zhao Chen didn't take this matter to heart, and with the assets he had now, the money was no longer worth it.
After returning home, Zhao Chen did not work immediately, "Rebellious Lelouch" has ended, and it is bound to be necessary to prepare the next comic.
Since "Lelouch the Rebellious" belongs to the representative manga of "Shonen soRa" for more than a year, if the replacement manga is almost there, the sales of "Shonen soRa" are likely to decline. Therefore, if you want to successfully replace Lelouch's position in "Shonen soRa", you will need a popular manga.
Zhao Chen thought about it, combined with his own vital interests, and finally chose his favorite "Pokémon"!
Pokémon, also known as Pokemon, Pokemon and Pokémon, was the first game in the original history to come out of the Pokemon series, which contained hundreds of pets of various forms and abilities, and was sought after by many game fans at the time. In 1996, he was directed by Kunihiko Yuyama and began broadcasting anime and related films, short story collections, broadcasting bureaus, and special episodes on television.
What has to be said here. "Pokémon" sold quite well in all the merchandise of the later generations, whether it was games, stickers, cards, puppets, clothes, models or wall calendars, they were all very popular, and it was difficult to compare with other comics.
"Pokémon", as a famous animated series in later generations, has also left a strong mark on pop culture. The Pokémon themselves have become icons of pop culture, and Zhao remembers the appearance of two Pikachu balloons and thousands of Pokémon products at the Messi's Thanksgiving Day parade. There are Pokémon parks in the island country of Nagoya in 2oo5 and Takarajimadai/Kita in 2oo6. And once appeared in Time Magazine in 1999, and the comics that can be featured in Time Magazine can be counted on one hand.
In his previous life, since the "Pokémon" animation was broadcast on TV, Zhao Chen couldn't help but be attracted to it. The strange and cute PM and the unbelievable way of fighting, as well as the PM's dependence and loyalty to humans, made him feel quite hot. Especially when I saw the Kirbymon episode. I even imagined that it would be nice if there was such a PM, and it would be cool to lie on Kirbymon's belly (provided that Kirbymon didn't roll over while sleeping). I always unconsciously think that it would be nice if there really was that world.,It's really the atmosphere and background in the animation that are fascinating.,This may be the reason why most people like this work.。
It's just that "Pokémon" didn't have many animated episodes broadcast in Huaxia at that time, and even the first part was far from being finished and stopped. This was mainly due to the fact that the State Administration of Radio/Television at that time suddenly stipulated that no foreign cartoons could be shown from 7 p.m. to 9.3o every night, so that no TV station was willing to introduce them at once, because if it was not broadcast in prime time, there would be no ratings. And this is called the protection of China's animation industry by the State Administration of Radio/Television.
It is precisely for this reason that Zhao Chen, who has only watched thirty or forty episodes, can imagine his mood; So, in desperation, Zhao Chen, who was still a primary school student at the time, could only 'raise money' with a few friends who also liked it, and instead went to buy the CD of "Pokémon" and watch it together at the home of a friend who had a CD player.
In the social environment at that time, elementary school students could have a few dollars in their pockets, and to put it bluntly, it was a lot for parents to give you a piece of pocket money every day to buy snacks. And at that time I wanted to buy the first CD of Pokémon (the first CD was the largest. There are about 5o to a CD, I can't remember clearly), but it takes at least more than 100 yuan, even if a few friends make money together, there is still a big gap.
In desperation, Zhao Chen, who was still a primary school student at the time, preferred to go hungry in the morning and save the money for breakfast, so that he finally scraped together enough money to buy the first "Pokémon" CD soon after. And this mode continued until the high school years, because at that time the Internet was widespread and it was free to download and watch.
It is because of this experience that it can be said that the regulations of the State Administration of Radio/Television. Zhao Chen is itchy with hate. Look at the domestic cartoons produced later, the quality is terrible into that kind of Cheng dù, but the most well-known is the helpless "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", but such an animal comedy cartoon is still labeled by the great State Administration of Radio/Television as a violent animation, it really makes people laugh and cry, no wonder the domestic animation exhibition is so bad, this is no longer a problem of talent and technology, but a variety of extremely restrictive 'rules and regulations'!
What I have to say here is that the animation of "Pokémon" is different from the plot of the manga, and the animation is obviously more attractive, even after thirty years, the animation of "Pokémon" can still rank in the top ten animations of the island country's annual ratings, which shows its attractiveness and heritage.
In addition, Zhao Chen has not seen much of the comic version of "Pokémon", and it is because of these two factors that he plans to draw the animated version directly, so as to replace the classic comic of "Rebellious Lelouch".
The main plot of "Pokémon" is relatively simple, that is, it is about Ash, who aspires to become a Pokémon master, and due to being late, he gets a moody Pikachu from Dr. Oki who does not like to enter Pokéball, and Ash then leaves Shinshin Town and starts his journey in the Kanto place. After earning Pikachu's trust, Ash earnestly embarks on his journey to challenge the gyms around the world and join the Pokémon League. And during the trip, he joined two mentors and friends, Xiaogang and Xiaoxia, to travel together.
In the Pokémon world, Pokémon and humans survive together. Humans who are trainers will take Pokémon, train Pokémon, fight with Pokémon, breed Pokémon, or use Pokémon as pets, or as a research discipline, or use Pokémon's abilities to complete various tasks.
Broadly speaking, Pokémon training itself is based on two such questions: what kind of relationship a trainer should have with Pokémon, and how to enhance that relationship. Because of different perspectives, different trainers will also have different training styles and specialize in different fields. There is no one way to train right and every one has its pros and cons.
However, many training styles end up in one of two categories. The first category is to focus on Pokémon's feelings and well-being, building strong friendships; The second category is focused on Pokémon's powers and abilities. Trainers often argue about these two views. In the values of the Pokémon series, it is emphasized that friendship is the most important thing between trainers and Pokémon, and as long as there is love and care, the power of any Pokémon can be wielded.
The world history of Pokémon is clearly different from the real world and focuses on the part of the depiction of humans getting along with Pokémon. There is no major religion in this fictional world, but many beliefs and myths revolve around legendary Pokémon, so it can also be said that Pokémon are the main beliefs of humans in this world. Moreover, many humans are friendly and respectful to Pokémon, and there are various shrines related to myths and legends around the world.
These are the main plots and features of Pokémon, and the pros and cons are also clear at a glance.
