Pokémon’s Lord of Fear

Chapter 320 The Grudge Begins Filming

Although Teng Shu and Yin Carrie successfully reached a PY deal and decided to shoot The Truman Show, but because Teng Shu still had another film called The Grudge on hand, Teng Shu explained the situation to Yin Carrie and asked him to wait.

Who would have thought that after reading the script of The Truman Show, Yin Carrey actually became interested in Teng Shu’s The Grudge and asked Teng Shu if he could star in a movie based on The Grudge.

“The Grudge?” Teng Shu looked at Yin Kairui in front of him and fell into deep thought.

Teng Shu is not too worried about Yin Carrie’s acting skills, as his acting skills are still very outstanding, but the problem lies in Yin Carrie’s personality.

After all, Yin Carrey has starred in many excellent comedy movies, so this also leads to Yin Carrey now having some of the feelings of Stephen Chow and Shen Teng in his previous lives. As soon as he appears, people think that this movie is a comedy, or there will be some comedy elements.

“For now, the leading role has been chosen, and only the supporting roles are left.” Teng Shu looked at Yin Carrie and decided to let Yin Carrie give it a try. After all, Yin Carrie’s acting skills were very good, and Teng Shu really liked this actor.

“Of course, I don’t mind.” Yin Carrie said with a smile. Seeing this, Teng Shu reached a verbal agreement with Yin Carrie. Yin Carrie only needed to go to Ghost Pictures to find the legal department to sign a contract tomorrow.

It was an excellent award-winning film, which also attracted an actor. Teng Shu was quite satisfied. It can be said that he made a lot of money from this film festival. As for the other film festival, Teng Shu did not care much about it now. After all, with the title of Best Director of the Alliance Film, Teng Shu only lacked the Best Film.

But out of courtesy, Teng Shu still planned to attend it. However, the film festival would not be held until the end of the year. There was still some time before the end of the year, so Teng Shu still had some time to shoot his own movie. After all, a movie like “The Grudge”, although very scary, generally would not take too long to shoot.

At night, Teng Shu stood in his room and looked out the window. The room he was in just faced the Bell Tower, the most famous building in Yuzu City and also the most famous building in the Johto area. The reason was that someone had once photographed the appearance of the Ho-Oh here.

“Bell Tower, I always remember there seems to be some plot?” Teng Shu looked at the bell tower in the distance and thought. He remembered that there was a rather special plot in the bell tower. The Phoenix King did appear in this plot, and then there were also Thunder God, Entei and Suicune. However, Teng Shu felt that he probably would not be able to encounter them.

After all, these mythical beasts have always been elusive. Although Teng Shu has a Groudon hanging around his waist, the situation of Groudon is rather special. Although Groudon is hanging on his waist, most of the time Groudon is motionless and has been sleeping. Sometimes Teng Shu even forgets that he has a Groudon hanging around his waist.

“Scar~” Little Q climbed onto Teng Shu’s body and rubbed against him happily. Teng Shu touched Little Q’s head and hugged him with a smile. On the side, Panghuang Ye Ling floated quietly beside Teng Shu, staring out of the glass, no one knew what he was thinking.

“Little Q, why do you like to stick to me more and more recently?” Teng Shu touched Little Q’s head, then picked up Little Q and played Little Q’s favorite game – throwing it up and catching it.

Little Q rubbed against Teng Shu, and then laughed happily. Teng Shu smiled and held Little Q and played with him for a while. When Little Q felt sleepy, he put Little Q down and Little Q went to rest by himself. Only Wandering Night Spirit was still quietly watching the outside. Teng Shu was a little curious. What was Wandering Night Spirit looking at?
Teng Shu looked outside. This hotel was one of the taller ones in the entire Yuanzhu City, and the location was also very good. No other high-rise buildings could be seen nearby, and the view was very broad, so Teng Shu didn’t know what Wandering Ye Ling was looking at.

“Xiao Ye, what are you looking at?” Teng Shu looked at Wandering Night Spirit and couldn’t help but ask. After hearing this, Wandering Night Spirit suddenly flew up and landed quietly behind Teng Shu. Then Wandering Night Spirit drilled into Teng Shu’s head. Teng Shu paused.

In other words, it should not have drilled into his head, but the Wandering Night Spirit directly overlapped with him. However, Teng Shu did not feel anything strange. He could just see the floating fire of the Wandering Night Spirit in his eyes. But then, Teng Shu paused.

Because when he noticed the fire in the eyes of the Wandering Night Spirit floating in front of him, Teng Shu saw a woman in white clothes standing in front of the glass of his room, looking at him quietly.

Teng Shu was a little surprised. He was sure that he had not seen this woman before, but he saw her now. This proved that this woman should be the one that Wandering Ye Ling had been staring at before. Teng Shu took a step forward and got out of Wandering Ye Ling’s sight. This time, Teng Shu found that the woman was gone.

When Teng Shu took a step back, the woman appeared again. This woman was looking at him quietly, but it seemed that she noticed that Teng Shu had seen her, so this woman smiled and waved at Teng Shu. The next second, this woman disappeared directly in front of Teng Shu, leaving Teng Shu stunned.

“What’s wrong with this guy?” Teng Shu was a little confused. What he just saw should be the ghost of this world. However, seeing ghosts in this world is not so strange. After all, ghosts do exist in this world, and there are even places where ghosts live.

The Wandering Night Spirit can sense when a person is about to die, and then go over and take that person’s soul to the spirit world.

“But why is there a ghost looking at me?” A series of plots flashed through Teng Shu’s mind. After all, it is a very common routine for a ghost to find a living person and ask for help in revenge. Of course, there may also be plots like the love between a human and a ghost. Of course, most of the time ghosts are killing people crazily, but such a thing has never happened in the world of Pokémon.

In the Pokémon world, there are generally only news reports about Pokémon attacking humans, and there have been no cases of ghosts attacking humans. Generally speaking, when there are such rumors, after checking, it is discovered that they are not ghosts, but ghost Pokémon, so Teng Shu is not worried about any horror movie plots.

After thinking for a while, Teng Shu still couldn’t figure it out. In addition, Wandering Ye Ling also went to bed later, so Teng Shu gave up worrying about this problem and lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up the next day, Teng Shu did not continue to think about the woman in white he met yesterday, but took Zoroark directly back to the Hoenn region. He planned to finish filming “The Grudge” first as there were more than two months left before the second film festival.

“Boss, isn’t our efficiency in producing the movie a little too high?” Zoroark couldn’t help but ask. It just happened to come over to deliver the information to Teng Shu, and it had just finished it.

“Yes, a little bit, but after The Grudge is finished and the editing is approved, Alien will be out of theaters.” Teng Shu was very calm. Alien has been out for a while, and when The Grudge is finished, it will be out of theaters soon, so it can continue the popularity of Alien. Moreover, The Grudge and Alien are two different types of movies, so Teng Shu is not worried that the audience will get bored. Alien, under Teng Shu’s adaptation, retains the original horror scenes of Alien, and adds a lot of alien killing scenes, making it very bloody, which can be regarded as a blood film. Although The Grudge sounds a bit disgusting, it is more of a psychological horror and terrifying when you think about it carefully.

So the genres are different, and the audience won’t easily get bored.

Moreover, after the filming is completed, Teng Shu can also take some time off before releasing the Grudge. After all, there are actually quite a few movies on the market that are not released immediately after filming. Some movies may not be released until several years after filming.

Some movies, in order to avoid clashing with other popular blockbusters, will choose to be released at a later date, avoiding the release time of these blockbusters.

Of course, occasionally, a movie may be finished and then there may be no news about it. After all, there are only so many theaters, and if one movie occupies another, other movies that are not good enough will naturally not be able to be shown in theaters.

The most extreme case is that the film industry is in a cold state, with no new films to be shown, and only some old films that have been shown before can be shown to earn some sentimental votes, but such a situation is relatively rare.

“Is the new movie called “The Grudge”? ” Zoroark was a little curious. Teng Shu was pretty good at naming things. Whether it was Dead Silence, When I Call, or Sherlock Holmes, they were all very good. It’s just that “The Grudge” this time sounded a little strange.

“Yes, the Grudge.” Teng Shu showed a meaningful smile.

The Grudge, a classic horror movie, coupled with master-level camera language, makes Teng Shu curious about what kind of experience it will bring to the audience. Teng Shu is looking forward to it and wants to see what rating it will be listed as when it is submitted for review, but it is guaranteed to be an adult-only movie.

Zoroark looked at Teng Shu with a strange expression. His boss’ smile was really weird, giving people a creepy feeling. He didn’t know what the boss was thinking.

Teng Shu picked up the document handed over by Zoroark and took a look at it. On it was a list of companies that had applied for the Youth Edition Camera during this period, as well as the prices they offered. Basically, all the wealthy film companies on the market had rented the Youth Edition Camera, and one or two wealthy companies had directly purchased the Youth Edition Camera.

“After deducting the costs, the profit has reached 10 billion?” Teng Shu was a little surprised when he looked at the figure. This profit was very high, even frighteningly high. You have to know that this is after deducting the cost of the R&D department to develop the youth version, and then the net profit comes. It also made Teng Shu realize how profitable a groundbreaking invention can be.

Under the monopoly situation, they even have the pricing power. Teng Shu pinched his brows. This is just the beginning. As movies using new technologies enter the market, traditional movies will fall into a complete winter. They can either join this glorious evolution or be completely buried in this era.

“Keep 500 million, and donate the other 500 million to a charity foundation.” Teng Shu put the document down. In the future, Ghost Pictures could make a lot of money. As long as no one on the market developed other cameras with similar effects, this income would become a long-term income, unless every film company chose to buy it. But if they did, Teng Shu would also make a lot of money.

Moreover, not every film company is willing to buy it, so they can only purchase it in batches. Teng Shu has made enough money during this period of time to become rich. As for the remaining 500 million, Teng Shu plans to use it to develop the company.

Ghost Pictures currently has insufficient talent, too few of them. Apart from Teng Shu, only Dam and Monica are a little famous. This is unhealthy. Teng Shu does not want Ghost Pictures to become his film-making machine. The appearance of Director Kirk makes Teng Shu realize that he needs to expand the territory of Ghost Pictures.

As for the question of how to develop the company, Teng Shu has already thought of a solution. The simplest way is to ask professionals. After all, although Teng Shu does not know much about this, there are people who do.

So Teng Shu went to find Kuroda.

Kuroda naturally accepted this task and began to develop a professional development plan, while Teng Shu asked Zoroark to follow Kuroda to handle this matter, while he himself took the company’s filming team to shoot The Grudge.

As for the specific location, Teng Shu has already found it. It is in the Hoenn region, in the city of Shuijing in the Hoenn region. This place meets Teng Shu’s requirements very well, so Teng Shu plans to start filming his The Grudge in this place. As for the house, Teng Shu naturally bought it directly. He is not short of money anyway.

“Are the actors in place?” Teng Shu looked at the house in front of him and was very satisfied. The location and architectural style of this house were very consistent with the style of the Grudge in Teng Shu’s mind. Moreover, this place had been abandoned for a long time and looked a bit dilapidated overall. The only thing missing was the actors.

“Director, I’m here.” Fujikiko raised her hand. She had come over a long time ago. Hai Xin on the side also smiled and came over as well. After all, the judges had already finished their selection.

“Hai Xin, can I ask who will win the grand prize this time?” Teng Shu looked at Hai Xin with some curiosity. Although the prize money for the science fiction film collection competition was not particularly large, it was not small either. If Teng Shu could get it, he could donate another sum of money.

After hearing this, Hai Xin smiled and pointed at Teng Shu. Teng Shu understood and thought that it seemed that he was the one.

Although Alien is a horror film, it is essentially a science fiction film. Whether it is the conception of the universe, the setting of space, interstellar travel, or the cryogenic chamber, it all has a strong science fiction color, so it is not surprising that Teng Shu won the award.
