The Trickster's Ninth Episode

Even if they can be invited, it is impossible to put such a precious opportunity for an old actor to appear on the advertisement. If there is a chance to invite the protagonists of the past, it must be reserved for guest appearances in future dramas!

At the same time, a big advantage of VR toys over the real world is that they can really transform with special effects, so the transformed personnel must show their faces.In this way, having a brand new face appear on the scene is the optimal solution in terms of economy and effect.

It's just that the content of the advertisement needs to be carefully designed to minimize the possible antipathy of fans as much as possible.

"That's it! That's quite simple." Yu Gonglian didn't care, although he is not a professional actor, but this is here to fight!How can you say no?

However, after accepting the endorsement of Kamen Rider, then Ultraman probably has nothing to do with Ren Amamiya.After all, peers are the same hatred, and if you choose to fight, you can't choose the Olympic Games. This is also a helpless thing.If you have to choose one of the two, Amamiya Ren still chooses Kamen Rider.

Although there are often guest appearances on both sides of the Cavaliers studio and the Ultraman studio, there is no doubt that the C position will never be shared.

The team is probably the same, although the team of knights is a family, but it can follow Heisei's works forward, and Qiao Ye and Soka played the roles of both teams and knights at the same time, basically it can be said that they belong to a special era.

It's just a pity that Futaba's favorite Phoenix team, but although it can't appear in the fully assembled commercial, there may be a chance when the Phoenix team sells toys alone in the future.

If it doesn’t work, let’s pull Yue Yu You Jiali over and let’s make a fanfic video together (Yue Yu You Jia Li is a fan of Xiang Yu’s original fan)—this is the benefit of having more friends!

But these are things for later, what matters now is the interview.

Under the leadership of Yasen, Yu Gonglian came to a place like a reception room.In the room, there were two men in suits and leather shoes waiting in their seats. When they saw Yasen coming, they immediately stood up to greet him.

Yasen also warmly greeted the other party, and then introduced to Amamiya Ren that these two are the people in charge sent by Toei this time.

One of them is Shinichiro Shirakura, whom all Kamen Rider chefs are familiar with.The director of Toei's second sales department came in person, and he really valued this cooperation very much.

After Yu Gonglian said hello one by one, Ya Sen introduced Yu Gonglian to the two persons in charge.

The two persons in charge were all taken aback when they saw Yu Gonglian—this... they had already prepared for Yasen to recommend a mediocre person to them, and their psychological expectations were at least Acting skills must be passable, and you must be willing to accept action training, and you must not be too squeamish. As for the appearance, as long as it is within the range that the makeup artist can save.

As a result, the appearance of the person brought by Yasen was unexpectedly good, which surprised and pleasantly surprised the two responsible persons.

Rao, as middle-aged men, they dare not make any guarantees about their aesthetics of men, and they have to admit that the boy in front of them is just pleasing to the eye.From appearance to temperament, it gives people who stay next to them a very comfortable feeling.

Just...doesn't it look a little too young?Although there is no age requirement for appearance, being too young will inevitably cause people to worry about their professional standards.

"This is the most outstanding graduate of our current [virtual artist] project. There is absolutely no problem with his professionalism. Because he debuted not long ago, the popularity foundation may be relatively weak in reality, but in terms of the popularity of the VR platform, in our It should be the highest among the platform users." Yasen was able to speak and sell Yu Gonglian.

Indeed, Lai Qixiao has the highest reputation among VR platform users.

why?Because there is currently no public social platform like Twitter and Facebook on the VR platform.Although there is a personal homepage, but that homepage is like the personal homepage in the steam workshop, can you compare it with Twitter?

No matter how famous you are in reality, in VR everyone has a private account that has no official certification. No matter how popular you are, more than [-]% of it will be directly cut off.Followed closely because there is no public platform, you can't even get further exposure.

But it just so happened that Lai Qixiao, a multi-threaded out-of-the-world madman, mercilessly plundered the only way of exposure on the VR platform-tap water.

So isn't he the most famous one?

"Acting skills and martial arts actions are not a problem. In addition, he is also a loyal fan of your company's Kamen Rider series, and he is familiar with the detailed settings in each work. It can be said to be a unique advantage for this shooting plan." Ya Sen He was still eloquently promoting Ugonglian to the two persons in charge.

During the period, the person in charge asked some questions, and Umiya Lian answered them all gracefully.Then the four of them moved together to the studio inside the Yasen Group, and let Amamiya Ren show off her quality of action scenes.

Afterwards, the two persons in charge and Ya Sen confessed their crimes, and took a step to the side to discuss privately.

Originally, Shirakura Shinichiro came to Yasen Group today mainly to chat about channels.The content of this part has been settled after serious discussions in the morning, and seeing Umiya Ren is completely incidental.

But after actually seeing Amamery Ren, the two found that the quality of this amateur boy was completely beyond their imagination. They thought they were selling the favor of President Yasen, but now it seems that they might have taken advantage of it.

The pros and cons are clearly explained by the other party. Judging from the current information, apart from [Virtual Artist], which is a job that has never been done before, which is not easy to predict, Ren Amamiya is excellent in all other aspects.

How can there be such a good thing in the world?Shinichiro Shirakura and another person in charge couldn't help but began to ponder President Yasen's intentions.

Shinichiro Shirakura has heard about the recent plans of a subsidiary of the Yasen Group to enter the entertainment industry with the main project of "Virtual Artist".Today, this project has not yet achieved significant results, and is still in a tepid state.

Could it be that President Yasen wants to praise artists?No, it is certain to praise artists, but the key is that a mere advertisement endorsement may not be enough to satisfy President Yasen's ambition.

Could it be... President Ya Sen wants this young man named Lai Qixiao to be the main character in a certain "Kamen Rider" in the future?Participating in advertising endorsements is just a foreshadowing and springboard.

After so many years in the "Kamen Rider" series, the starring lineup often adopts newcomers, and many newcomers are popular.Its leading role can be said to be one of the best novice villages in the Japanese entertainment industry. If Chairman Yasen is aiming at this, it is not impossible.

After Shirakura Shinichiro had this idea in his mind, he was a little out of control.

In all fairness, Ren Amamiya is the top choice both in terms of appearance and ability. Shirakura Shinichiro has no longer been the producer of "Kamen Rider" since Decade. The urge to bring to the Cavaliers set.

It's a pity that the current Exaid is coming to an end, and the build actors who will take over are all ready and turned on.

If Build doesn't work, then...the plan for the next work "Kamen Rider" popped up in Shinichiro Shirakura's mind.

Commemorating the 20th anniversary of Heisei, corresponding to Heisei All Knights, a milestone work.It is impossible not to make preparations for such a work in advance.And it just so happens that this work will also be the work of Shinichiro Shirakura as the producer again over ten years.

In other words, Shirakura Shinichiro will have almost absolute right to speak in the crew of this work, whether he chooses his favorite main character or discusses cooperation according to this project, it is naturally not a problem.

"Kamen Rider ZIO", the name of Heisei No. 20 knights.

After thinking about it again and again, Shinichiro Shirakura and his colleagues came to Yasen and Ren Amamiya again. Because ZIO's project is still a year away, they only mentioned this matter tactfully, expressing their hope that Ren Amamiya will come to participate next year. Audition means.

On the bright side, this is just an opportunity, and it's hard to say what the final result will be.There was enough leeway, and Ya Sen was also given a face.

"The next year's Rider?... Heh!" Ren Amamiya was surprised when she heard the audition invitation, and then chuckled lightly, saying bluntly, not at all like a junior in the industry.

"I appreciate your kindness, please allow me to decline this invitation."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Does Ren Amamiya want to appear in the "Kamen Rider" series?

Does that need to be said?Of course I want to!Dream about it!

Which knight chef doesn't want to have his own exclusive belt?

But if it is a drama series in the 20th or [-]th year of Heisei, Ren Amamiya will only stay away from it.

Because the quality of the other 18 "Kamen Rider" is hard to talk about, but the two ten-year and 20-year-old films have a high probability of being bad works.

Especially after experiencing Decade's failure, and now that Toei's approach has become known, it can be judged that ZIO must be hopeless.

This is not a prophet, just a common sense inference that every qualified creator can make.

As a content creator, what I am most afraid of is writing a composition.If you make a proposition for yourself, it is easy to say; but if you let others make a proposition for yourself, it is simply a nightmare.

On the basis of this step, the propositions given by others, there are dozens of constraints alone. If you want to wear shackles on you, how will it feel?

What if on such a terrifying basis, there is another [creation by multiple authors in turn]?

Now let's see what ZIO faces.

First, ZIO is facing the story of the nineteen knights of Heisei in the past. In this small work, it must echo with the nineteen works in the past; Under such circumstances, write a main plot that connects the 20 years of Heisei.

Second, to sell toys... All knightly writers are bound to sell toys.Which toys to sell has been decided a long time ago. As the script, what you have to do is to find a way to write these forms and power-up props in a reasonable and reasonable way in the plot.There are also requirements for the rhythm, what should be released in which episode, and which stage should be released in which episode.The main rider, two riders and three riders, basically require exclusive plots.

So, as a commemorative masterpiece commemorating the 20th anniversary of Heisei, do you guess how many toys you will be asked to write in the whole play?

Third, the protagonists of all dynasties may not be able to invite back.Although the practice of one mile every ten years is a carnival, it expands the influence of IP.But Dongying's heart is higher than the sky, and what he can actually do is very limited. It is impossible for him to spend so much money to play with your feelings. Decade's parallel world setting was a colossal failure, and ZIO isn't necessarily going to repeat the same mistakes, but there's not much to hope for in that regard.

So please come back, you have to write their exclusive plot, right?It costs money to show the audience proudly.Then please don't come back, you have to patch it, don't you?Find a way to fool this knight's show with an unreasonable plot.At the same time, don't forget the most important thing-the number of episodes of the script is limited.

Fourth, haha, your creative time is limited, please submit the following plot at least half a month before the latest episode airs, because there are still many things to be busy after you have the script, and you must finish it ahead of time.

Fifth, you are not the only one who writes, please rack your brains to wipe the ass of those who wrote before you.

There may be other issues that can be discussed later, but I will not list them one by one.

How could such a work not collapse?How could it not be bad?Who can save such a work?Yu Gonglian thought that he should not be able to save himself.

Guan Yu fights Qin Qiong, heroes fight, is the popular IP mixed rice well done?

Yes, I have!Marvel is.But that is because people are willing to spend money, and they have enough time to polish the script and build a linkage world view... Well, and there is no need to force the sale of toys.

Why some works are terrible in the original, but the theater version and rumors are doing well. Is it because the commercial value is less, so the restrictions imposed by those neurotic bosses who like to point fingers are also less.A theatrical version often only needs to sell one toy, which is too easy in comparison.

Wanting to save ZIO is not something that can be done by one person, it is not something that can be done by changing a bunch of super actors, or changing a script.

By the way, as a digression, although the future ZIO has a bad reputation and has been scolded miserably, but their toys are selling well, and their sales profit has reached a new high, which will give Toei a bright future.With such a poor story that can make a lot of money, how can all companies that look at money put more effort into the story, of course, continue to TV shopping!

So on the other hand, unless Toei, from the directors to the crew, is all for feelings and romance, it is bound to make a work that combines word of mouth and feelings.Everyone let selling toys die, everything is for the high-quality plot.In this regard, whether ZIO can be saved depends on the ability of the producer.

This kind of thing is just a dream. The "Kamen Rider" series has always made the most money and the least budget.So ZIO will collapse irreparably.

Ren Amamiya was very blunt, except for some personal subjective judgments in the above content, and stated the rest of the objective facts straightforwardly.

"Mr. Shirakura, I love the "Kamen Rider" series very much, including Decade. Maybe ZIO will become a classic character like Decade over time in the future. After completing the setting and beautifying the memory in the future, everyone still Would love this role."

"Perhaps ZIO's work is still invaluable as the promoter of a newcomer's debut. But the reason why I like "Kamen Rider" is not to be famous for it. If I can realize my dream of playing Kamen Rider one day, then I hope this Dreams can be as fulfilling as possible."

"And obviously, "Kamen Rider 20 Years" can't do that."

"Unless the script of "20 Years" is written by me alone from now on and I am not allowed to change it, I will not consider any role in this work."

"Nonsense! Kisama! You...you!..." The person next to Shinichiro Shirakura slapped the table angrily and stood up.

As for Shinichiro Shirakura himself, he is already 50 years old and his face is extremely ugly at the moment.

What Ren Amamiya said just now is not just a simple truth. It is a big treason in Japanese society for an unknown minor to speak out in front of his seniority.

In the Japanese workplace, rules and appearances are sometimes far more important than bad facts.

As a result, the two people's original affection for Yu Gonglian almost disappeared.

In fact, even the endorsement of Yu Gonglian's toys almost fell through, but when the other party proposed to change, Yasen said something very shameless, roughly saying "I am recommending candidates for you, not I want to ask for your opinion."

This incomparably obvious protection and connivance killed all the actions of the two responsible persons against Yu Gonglian.They were amazed by Yasen's attitude towards Ren Yugong, and had to suppress their dissatisfaction.Obviously, it is absolutely impossible to make an enemy of Yasen for the sake of an arrogant and rude kid.

In the end, of course, they broke up unhappy.

"You really dare to say it! You are not afraid of people being angry, and you really have nothing to do with us. You don't need channels. From now on, you will not even be able to mention Kamen Rider in the live broadcast." Although the relationship with the partner It seemed that the quarrel was very stiff, but Ya Sen had a relaxed look on his face, and teased Amamiya Ren.

"Toei's high-level executives are not the leader of Toei. What am I afraid of? There are a bunch of black boxes in VR technology, and you can't let anyone copy them. The general trend of the world is mine. Even if they can't hold back their faces now, they will be punished by the board of directors in the future." Come over here and talk about cooperation again." Amamiya Lian chuckled nonchalantly.

"That's true." Yasen nodded, not denying it at all.Change the subject and say it again. "Then again, we had a good chat, why did you suddenly turn your back on it?"

Even from the perspective of a bystander, the sudden collapse of Yu Gonglian just now was really annoying.The main reason is that your hostility came out of nowhere, without any reason at all.The friendliness and kindness of the family were criticized by Yu Gonglian as worthless.

"Well... there are two reasons." Yu Gonglian stretched out two fingers.

"One is that I'm very upset that something I love is going to be ruined by this group of people."

There is no doubt that ZIO will be rotten, and the living space of this work is doomed to collapse.

But rational analysis belongs to rational analysis. Thinking that Toei and his gang are going to turn Kamen Rider into TV shopping, Ren Amamiya doesn't want to be rational at all.

Although there is still a Build short of "20 Years", Ren Amamiya is still very upset.

"Second, the proposal I just made is serious. If they give me the right to be the absolute editor-in-chief, I will allow them to let me write essays. On this basis, I can also give them a good reputation and sell toys. Tell them the story. But I am a soft-spoken person, what can I do if no one believes me?" Yu Gonglian said helplessly.

The biggest problem with ZIO is that there are too many things to consider, and the creators are severely constrained, but if they can get the right to speak out about the script and leave enough time for creation, then it is necessary to produce a masterpiece that integrates 20 years of knight history. Not impossible.

It's a pity that Toei's current interests in selling physical toys are absolutely impossible to compromise.
