Pokémon's Lord of Fear

You have to know that it was a shady factory with thugs and wolfhounds, not much worse than the hellish place in northern Myanmar. However, investigative reporters still went in and obtained enough evidence to prove that these shady brick factories employed disabled people as workers, did not pay them wages, and the food they ate was very bad.

Investigative journalists have made great contributions to the world, but their achievements are not well known. Most of the investigative journalists have their images blurred to prevent their enemies from retaliating against them or to prevent the industry being investigated from discovering problems.

Teng Shu finally let the two paparazzi go, not for anything else, but because of their courage and determination to not blackmail him to get rich, but to choose to make the truth known to the public. Teng Shu felt that the world would become a better place with such people, not to mention that if this matter was used properly, it could also become a good marketing tool.

"Zoroyak, have you found the bug?" Teng Shu asked Zoroak. Now the two reporters had left with Junsha. Although Teng Shu did not press charges after all he had signed a letter of understanding, they still had to go to the Junsha Brigade to undergo a routine interrogation and investigation, and then take some notes.

Teng Shu looked at the backs of the two reporters, thinking about something. He was now more curious about how the two reporters had placed the bug in. However, they had already told him the location of the bug, and Zoroark had already gone to look for it.

"I found it. It was placed in the interlayer of one of our props, and I didn't even notice it." Zoroark felt a little guilty. He really didn't notice this. But Teng Shu didn't care much about it. There were many things in this world that Zoroark couldn't do. If Zoroark could do everything, he would probably become a divine beast.

"It's okay. Just be more careful next time. The entire crew will have to prepare some inspection equipment." Teng Shu waved his hand. The incident with the two reporters made Teng Shu a little alert. It was hard to say whether there would be other paparazzi targeting him in the future. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was necessary to strengthen the control over the entire crew.

Although there are no shameful secrets in Teng Shu's crew, it would be very troublesome if the paparazzi took some key shots, such as the finale, etc. After the spoilers, the excitement of the whole movie would be greatly reduced. There have even been cases where the director and screenwriter had to modify the script because of spoilers.

Teng Shu had never encountered such a problem when filming a movie before. Now that he has encountered it, he will correct it in time.

"Okay, I'll go buy it now." Zoroark hurriedly walked down with his mobile phone. Teng Shu shook his head helplessly, then looked at Dam, who was covered in dust. The other party was waiting for him.

"Let's go, Damu, let's continue filming Buried Alive." Teng Shu smiled, then took Damu to the set, stuffed Damu back into the wooden box, and put him in the soil.

Looking at Dam's superb acting skills in the camera, Teng Shu touched his chin. It seems that the filming progress of Buried Alive may be faster than he expected, which is a good thing.

By that time, finishing the filming earlier will also allow the editing work to be completed earlier.

"Boss, I have an idea." Dam looked at Teng Shu and said. Teng Shu raised his eyebrows. What was Dam going to say?

"I think this is still not realistic enough. Can we cut off the oxygen supply? This way we can act out the fear of lack of oxygen more realistically!" Dam said excitedly. Teng Shu's mouth twitched. This guy was even crazier than he had imagined. Is this something a human can do?

But after thinking about it, Teng Shu felt that it was still feasible. After all, after the oxygen supply was cut off, although the oxygen in the wooden box became limited, it was indeed more realistic. Moreover, he could also prepare a backup plan and monitor the oxygen content. If it reached a dangerous level, he could supply oxygen in time to avoid danger.

"I think it's OK." Teng Shu nodded, and Dam was also very excited. Only the props group staff were sweating. These two living ancestors dared to make such a request? Don't you think this is too dangerous?

But the leading actor didn't mind, the director didn't mind, and he had no choice but to cut off the oxygen supply in the wooden box.

The Miss Joys who came with the crew also sat up straight.

Chapter 296 Buried alive!

"Buried" was filmed very quickly. Dam's acting skills, after years of accumulation and his persistence, finally shone the brightest in this movie. It took Teng Shu only twelve days to finish filming the entire "Buried", and now the crew of "Alien" was completely ready to start filming.

This shows how outrageous the filming speed of Buried Alive was. Even Zoroark, who had been watching from the side and had seen part of it, found it a little hard to imagine.

"Boss, a movie is finished like this?" At the wrap-up party for Buried Alive, Zoroark was still a little bit unbelievable. At this moment, there were not many people at the wrap-up party for Buried Alive. Because some characters only appeared in the movie with their voices, Teng Shu invited some professional voice actors to help with the dubbing, and those voice actors took the scripts and dubbed in a professional recording studio.

So he didn't come to the set to participate in the filming, and naturally he was not seen at the wrap-up party.

"Yes, Dam's acting skills are still very good. I thought it might take half a month to shoot." Teng Shu yawned. He has been quite busy recently. In addition to shooting, he also needs to handle some affairs of Dewen Company. He basically works non-stop every day.

Coupled with the need to deal with the aliens, Teng Shu can be said to have deeply experienced what self-torture is. If he had not planned to shoot two movies, it would not be so painful now. So Teng Shu thought about it and decided to put "Manchester by the Sea" on hold for the time being.

It won’t be too late to shoot this one after the filming of Alien is finished.

"By the way, boss, do you have the contact information of Mr. Kugimiya?" Zoroark looked at Teng Shu expectantly and asked. Teng Shu paused after hearing that. Mr. Kugimiya? Teng Shu remembered that this was a voice actor teacher that the other party's agent had enthusiastically recommended to him when he contacted the voice actor's company before.

After listening to the other person's voice, Teng Shu felt that it was indeed quite suitable, so he finally asked the other person to do the dubbing.

"Of course I have. You want to." Teng Shu answered subconsciously, but then he realized something and looked at Zoroark with a smile. Zoroark coughed awkwardly, and then his mouth was full of words like "The game character has the other party's voice" and "The anime I like also has the other party's voice", which made Teng Shu want to laugh even more.

However, Teng Shu was also an otaku in his previous life, so he could naturally understand Zoroark's excitement. Besides, the voice of this Mr. Kugimiya was exactly the same as that of a voice actor in his previous life, so Teng Shu naturally left the other party's contact information. But before that, Teng Shu also asked the other party first, and only after the other party expressed his consent did he give the contact information to Zoroark.

Seeing Zoroark excitedly going to talk to its teacher, Teng Shu shook his head helplessly, but did not say anything. Instead, he smiled and chatted with other crew members and Dam.

"Boss, thank you so much for letting me star in such an excellent script!" Dam said excitedly. Teng Shu was a little helpless. Ever since he chose Dam to be the leading male role of Sherlock Holmes, he has been expressing gratitude to him every day.

Teng Shu also said that there was no need to be so excited. He chose Damu because of Damu's previous efforts. His steadfast acting skills were recognized by Teng Shu.

But Dam is still the same, and Teng Shu has no choice but to encourage him to keep honing his acting skills and earn more money to support his parents. Teng Shu is very clear that Dam's biggest regret is that he did not give his parents a good life before.

Of course, Damm can do this easily now. The salary from Sherlock Holmes alone has changed Damm's life.

Soon, the wrap party of Buried was over, and Teng Shu called the company's post-production department to start editing the film, so that it could be released in advance. The filming of Alien would be more time-consuming, so during this period of time, Teng Shu could just release Buried and see how Buried performs at the same time to avoid a collision with Alien, although Teng Shu would not care even if there was a collision.

After all, Alien and Buried are two different types of movies, and their audiences don't particularly overlap. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that some viewers came just for Teng Shu, so after much deliberation, Teng Shu decided to separate the two movies. At the same time, he also wanted to see how Buried received reviews on the Internet, its box office, and most importantly, whether it could gain a fear value.

This is Teng Shu's first attempt at shooting a horror film. The genre of "Buried" is quite unique, and Teng Shu doesn't know if it will make the audience feel scared. However, with the blessing of Teng Shu's many abilities, Teng Shu feels that there is a high probability that there will be no problem. After all, Teng Shu himself has also watched it, and that feeling

I can only say it's great. Teng Shu even thinks that the theater needs to pay attention to the ventilation problem, otherwise some unpleasant things may happen.

"By the way, there is also the issue of popularity on the Internet." Teng Shu thought of the popularity that led to the creation of Buried Alive. Teng Shu thought about it and came up with an idea. Then Teng Shu called together the employees of the post-production department and announced a generous reward measure to encourage them to complete the editing of Buried Alive as soon as possible.

After working so hard at Ghost Pictures that he was mentally confused, and under the supervision of Teng Shu, "Buried" was edited and reviewed at an astonishing speed, and then sent to the Alliance Film Review Office. At the same time, the news of the new work was released on the Internet.

[Another new work by Director Teng Shu! The thriller film "Buried" is about to be released. Is this Director Teng Shu's response to online rumors? ]

[From the popularity to the release of the new work, Teng Shu's eagerness makes me feel worried]

[Thriller movie? Another masterpiece by director Teng Shu, starring Dam! ]

News spread quickly on the Internet. It had not been long since Ken Dao's sharp criticism of Teng Shu had faded away. Although the Internet did not have much memory, the heat spread quickly, so naturally people did not forget it and joined in the debate one after another.

And on a certain video website that never deteriorates, Ken Dao also started broadcasting.

"Director Teng Shu's new work, 'Buried Alive'? Of course I know about it. But my friends, I'm not trying to take advantage of my seniority or attack Director Teng Shu. I really don't think highly of Teng Shu's work this time!" Ken Dao said confidently, waving a fan.

And the word [地Authentic] is written on his fan. Ken Dao knows very well that black and red are also red, and doing so will make some passers-by think that he is genuine and will become his fan.

[Kendall is here again, eating up the popularity of director Teng Shu and gaining over a million fans. If it were me, I wouldn’t let go of such a piece of cake from Teng Shu.]

[Buried alive? It doesn't sound good right away, and didn't the Internet say that Teng Shu took twelve days to shoot the film? ]

[Twelve days. Honestly, this can break the record for the shortest film shooting time, right? ]

[Although Damu is the lead actor, Damu can’t hold on for twelve days]

There were also many people in the barrage who were pessimistic about the film. After all, as the popularity of "Buried" was rising and the film was about to be released, some rumors were also spread.

"Ahem, my friends, you won't know much at first glance. I heard from my buddies that when Buried Alive was being filmed, Miss Junsha was also involved. His future is worrying~" Ken Dao looked at the heated arguments in the comments, and his smile got bigger. There was no way he would lose this time!

[It is said that Director Teng Shu almost killed Dam in order to film the movie well! ]

[Is this true? Didn’t Ghost Pictures deny the rumor and say it was a misunderstanding? ]

[You believe them when they refute a rumor? It’s not uncommon for people to be criticized after sending a lawyer’s letter to refute a rumor! ]

The debate in the live broadcast room is still going on, and the heat on the Internet is also getting higher and higher. However, what puzzles people in the industry is that things have developed to this point, but Ghost Pictures is as dead as dead, and has not responded at all. It just issued a rumor-refuting statement and talked about Miss Junsha's matter, and did not respond to anything else.

This is not what a qualified public relations team should do. Playing dead will only make public opinion ferment more and more.

As a result, at this critical juncture, Ghost Pictures made two other announcements.

[The new film "Alien" is currently being filmed, starring the cast]

It was a very ordinary announcement, but it caused greater discussion at this critical juncture.

[Regarding all recent disputes of our company, they will be resolved after the release of "Buried". See you there~

Ghost Pictures' attitude also caused even greater controversy, with people making all sorts of comments online. Some even maliciously directed the criticism to Devon, but all these comments were extinguished without causing any waves.

After all, Devon has been a leading company for so long, there are always some competitors eyeing Devon.

"Secretary Kuroda, what is the chairman planning to do?" Inside Dewen Company, the head of the public relations department looked at Kuroda in confusion and asked.

Although Teng Shu is currently filming a movie in Kanto, Kuroda did not follow him. Under Kuroda's coordination, the entire Dewen Company is operating very normally. The only thing that the director of the public relations department cannot understand is why Teng Shu chose not to interfere in the public opinion issues of Ghost Pictures.

Just let the public relations department handle the public opinion about Devon Company.

However, Ghost Pictures completely ignored the public opinion and after issuing a few announcements, it completely ignored it, which made people a little confused.

"Who knows?" Secretary Kuroda drank his tea calmly, then looked at the computer in front of him, processing some documents, and then dragged out the files that required Teng Shu's decision separately and put them in a folder. These files will be sent to Teng Shu separately for decision-making later.

The director of the public relations department curled his lips, but continued to monitor public opinion on the Internet.

"Oh my Blastoise, the popularity of Ghost Pictures is really outrageous right now. Four out of ten items on the trending search list are related to Ghost Pictures." The director of the public relations department couldn't help but sigh. Such outrageous popularity is really rare, but then he had an idea.

The huge popularity and public opinion are like a whirlpool, which makes Ghost Pictures deeply trapped in it and unable to extricate themselves. If "Buried" released by Ghost Pictures is good enough, then Ghost Pictures will instantly gain huge attention and popularity, unparalleled success, and even the box office will rise to a terrifying level.

Moreover, the fame of his own chairman will instantly increase, allowing Teng Shu to become a top director and he may even win some awards.

But if Ghost Pictures' Buried Alive is not exciting enough, it will collapse in an instant, and Teng Shu's accumulated reputation will be questioned. Then the title of "loser" will be attached to the head of his own chairman.

"This is simply..." The head of the public relations department swallowed his saliva. He understood that this was a gamble, a crazy gamble. If it succeeded, the benefits would be huge, and his chairman would definitely become a famous director in film history. But if it failed...

The director of the public relations department glanced at Kuroda. Kuroda's secretary was still very calm, so he calmed down all of a sudden. After all, he had worked with Kuroda for so many years, and he knew very well what kind of person Kuroda was. If the chairman did not give Kuroda the inside scoop on such an important decision, the steady Kuroda secretary would definitely not agree.

Kuroda is just like this. He is very serious at work and makes people feel at ease. Sometimes the old chairman is urged by Kuroda to come back to work.

But now Kuroda is very calm, and doesn't even look worried at all.

So Kuroda should have

"Secretary Kuroda, can you let me see it too?" The head of the public relations department came over and asked with a smile. After hearing this, Secretary Kuroda looked at the other party with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. Those who can get to the management level of the company are all shrewd people? Moreover, Dewen Company has always been promoted by those who are capable, so this also leads to the fact that there is no simple role in the senior management of the entire company.

It seems this guy has guessed it.

"If you are so curious, you can go and see it the day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow is the day when the chairman's movie is released." Kuroda shook his head. The chairman had said that this matter must be kept confidential. If he hadn't insisted that it was too risky, the chairman would not have let him see the movie. However, Kuroda was indeed shocked after watching it.

There were no sudden jump scares, nor any weird background music. Everything was so peaceful and simple. The story unfolded in a straightforward manner. However, after watching it, Kuroda was speechless for a long time. He felt as if he was put into that terrifying wooden box and buried underground. He could only feel the increasing difficulty of breathing in despair, and finally...

Seeing the mysterious smile of Secretary Kuroda, the head of the public relations department became even more curious, but he didn't say anything, but silently accepted it. Isn't it the day after tomorrow? He must go and see it then to see how good the chairman's movie is that it can make such a steady person like Secretary Kuroda agree to such a risky plan.

Chapter 297 When the Audience Was Buried Alive in the Theater

Amidst the controversy, "Buried" was finally released as scheduled, and all the controversy on the Internet during this period was focused on one point - how was the filming of "Buried"?

All kinds of self-media were frantically publishing articles, some pessimistic, some optimistic, some flattering, taking the opportunity to attack Teng Shu and Dewen Company.

If I have to say something, I can only say that the entire Pokémon League and the Internet are in chaos now, with all kinds of comments.

Whether they are Teng Shu’s haters or fans, they argue back and forth, but they find that they cannot escape one question anyway, which is how was the movie "Buried" filmed?

If "Buried" is indeed very good, then there is no doubt that Teng Shu's fans can chase after the haters and the entire trend on the Internet will be reversed instantly. However, if "Buried" is not well filmed, or even not good enough, then it will lead to more slander and ridicule.

It can even be said that with the current popularity, Teng Shu and Ghost Pictures have only two possible outcomes: takeoff or failure.

In such a tense atmosphere, the release of Buried instantly attracted a large number of moviegoers, and various theaters also raised the screening rate of Buried to the highest level during the same period. After all, the people in charge of the theaters are not fools, and they can naturally see how outrageous the popularity of Buried is now.

If the Pokémon League Film Association hadn't required that every movie released have at least some screenings, I'm afraid many theaters would have simply filled up the screening rate for Buried Alive.

Even so, all the screenings of Buried Alive on the first day were basically sold out. People were very curious about what kind of movie director Teng Shu had made and whether he could refute the comments on the Internet.

Anyway, as a director, Teng Shu naturally has to let his works speak for themselves.

".I still have great confidence in Director Teng Shu. How could a director who can make a classic work like "Galer Express Murder Case" be a director who relies on vulgar routines to scare people?" At this moment, in a movie theater in Kanaz City, the old lady [The Disappearing Fat Fox] was broadcasting live.
