Chapter 484: The Golden Spark from the Collision of Eastern and Western Occultism
If you want to say that the most popular American drama with a little thriller element, you must not be able to escape these two dramas.
"The Walking Dead", "The Vampire Diaries".
Foreigners seem to have a soft spot for things that can suck blood and bite people, but any such subject matter can have a high degree of attention.
The Walking Dead filmed 177 episodes, and The Vampire Diaries filmed 171 episodes, more than the content of Zhen Huan's biography, and a few leading actors are equivalent to a drama for a lifetime.
You must know that the market of Lao Meituan is not the same as that of the mainland circle, and you can eat a lot of money with the CD and subsequent playback, so don't look at Chenglong's later movie box office, but just rely on his previous movie copyright, he can eat enough every year.
There is another series of long dramas, but Fang Yu's idea is not to add himself to the protagonist group, although he can make money, it is not what he wants.
Appearing in such a film and television work, what he wants more is actually cultural publicity.
So how to publicize it, and in what form to publicize it?
Simple.
Go straight to the hard work.
Since it is a TV series with a Western theme of horror and thriller as the keynote, what should the East look like under this theme?
Different from Western culture, there is a similarity in that zombies are compared to vampires, and mysterious Eastern Taoist priests are compared to priests in the church.
The West is strong, so come up with a more mysterious zombie system, these viewers will be full of curiosity, and even want to see zombies vs. vampires and trample them under their feet.
This kind of thinking may not be very understandable to the Eastern audience, thinking that their culture is trampled on or something, the extreme ones will come out and scold the main creator fiercely, while the Western audience feels the pleasure of being overthrown.
In Meituan, too many people scoff at what the superior says and does, which can be understood as anti-authority at the lightest level, and anti-intellectual at the worst level.
In short, it is something that everyone agrees with, and what the official agrees with, and these people will oppose it.
Bloodsucker? You say it's awesome, so do you say it's what you say? Are vampires powerful? Have you ever beaten zombies?
This kind of sentiment is difficult for Orientals to understand, but it does happen every day in Meituan, for example, when Bill Gates was speaking out for a sit-in at home to prevent the spread of the virus, and for vaccines, in the mouths of a group of anti-intellectual people, he became an evil villain who wants to inject people with a manipulative brain control chip vaccine, the purpose is not to save the whole world, the purpose is to destroy human civilization.
This kind of psychological thought can also be summarized as bar spirit, refuting sexual personality, hating one's own culture, etc., in short, Fang Yu added the change of the Eastern zombie camp in the Vampire Diaries.
Two words - strong enough.
Fang Yu thought about it, turned on the lamp a little, and didn't open his mouth to pick up the grapes handed by Jia Jingwen, Jia Jingwen was also very sensible and silently retreated back to wait for Fang Yu, Fang Yu said while writing in the notebook:
"The protagonist group came to Chinatown because of some things, and on the way to shop, the villain suddenly appeared, and the villain couldn't shoot directly because of the large number of people in the downtown area, and the protagonist group took this opportunity to run to a family."
"Folklore shop!"
"White candles, yellow symbols, paper figures, shrouds, wreaths! Nothing is pulled! ”
"Well, the compass, the fortune teller, you have to have it."
"The fortune teller pulls the charter performance? OK. ”
"And then."
"The protagonist group told the charter company to borrow a place to hide from people, and then a large number of people ran in to make trouble."
"Due to the pressure from the charter company to call the police, the villain team left, and several vampires came that night to retaliate."
"Well, the charter man can write death directly, his death will help to lead to the great zombie in the east!"
"Either the ancestral seal was not repaired in time because of the death of the charter lord, and the great stiffness was released, or it was."
"Five-hundred-year-old road pedestrian shape red-haired stiff? Transform into a human form and cultivate the Tao? ”
"There is."
"Born in the early Ming Dynasty, he was taught by Longhu Mountain, and he was a family."
"In the late Ming Dynasty, there was a big stiffness in the Taihang Mountains, and the genius Fang Xiaomao of the way clan went down the mountain to suppress the stiffness, and the zombie king was sealed by the various major sects of the martial arts, and Fang Xiaomao's whereabouts were unknown after being injured, and it was suspected that he became stiff."
"At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, a Taoist priest encountered a mountain accompanied by mist, and found that there was a dilapidated Taoist temple in the mountain, thinking that there was an adventure, and went to explore"
"The door was open, and a young Taoist man squatted on top of the main hall, with his back to the few people who came to visit, and he didn't say anything or pay attention, and a few people felt strange, but they heard the Taoist priest say."
"I can't see the sun, please don't leave the door wide open, a small crack is enough."
Everyone was surprised, how could there be a "person" who could not see the sun? Thinking of something strange, someone in the crowd noticed that in the next room, there were a few zombies standing in the corner! ”
"Your words of raising corpses were shouted out by the old Taoist who took the lead, and I only heard the young Taoist priest say"
"Raising corpses? I'm looking for a way to change from a corpse to a human! ”
He said and turned back.
Fang Yu turned his wrist twice, a little sore, "The moment he turned around, the audience was shocked!" ”
"This is actually a man wearing a Taoist robe. Corpse! ”
At this point, Fang Xiaomao's background has been set!
"Fang Xiaomao participates in the main line of the Vampire Diaries? Or is it that because of the Chinatown fortune teller, Fang Xiaomao, the peerless zombie king, was lured out, and he was furious, showing his face, leaving behind a terrifying legend of Chinatown. Since then, the werewolf vampire lineup will no longer go to Chinatown? ”
"There are so many things that can be filmed, and the pressure is so high."
"A Taoist priest who used the secret method of Dragon and Tiger Mountain to fight vampires and werewolves? Just thinking about this figure, poster, and peripheral toys will sell a lot."
Hearing Fang Yu stop writing, Jia Jingwen, who was sitting on the side of the bed, came over.
Looking at the general content, she nodded, "Wow, is this the script for the new TV series?" Going to Chinatown for filming? ”
"Well, Chinatown is definitely going to go, it's not a mainland TV series, an American drama."
"Oooh!" Jia Jingwen looked at the back of Fang Yu's neck with adoring eyes, and she didn't know that she thought she was a vampire, this look was about to be drawn.
A week before the North American release of the Expendables, Ocean Paradise landed in domestic theaters and was released nationwide.
When I heard that it was a public welfare film, although the film scheduling rate was high, the attendance rate was not good.
Not many people like to watch tragedies these days.
But it's not a big problem, Fang Yu is a person who has experienced the era of "Hello, Jia Huanying", how the tragedy should be publicized to be effective, he understands it too well.
