Pokémon's Lord of Fear
Page 149
The town where he lives is a complete set, and his every day is strange. There are many people advertising in various ways, and even if there are accidents, they will be quickly dealt with by the staff. This kind of life makes Truman feel a little confused.
Truman was not very satisfied with this kind of life, but it was acceptable. However, what happened afterwards made him more and more suspicious, and finally he discovered that his life was completely fake, and then he escaped from the fakery and returned to reality. This is a story.
It is not very complicated, but the idea is very interesting, which also makes "The Truman Show" gain extremely high ratings and discussions.
The most widely discussed topic is "If you were Truman, would you choose to continue your reality show life, or escape the falsehood and return to reality?", which could be debated for hundreds of floors.
After Teng Shu finished his work, he carried Xiao Q and Xiao Ye back to his home, then lay down on the sofa, turned on the TV and watched the Hoenn news program during that time.
[The Pokémon League released the latest trainer career rating, which attracted the attention of many trainers]
【Famous archaeologists have unearthed a new site that promises to reveal the story of the ancient alliance region】
[Galar regional champion Dante proposed to hold the Pokémon Masters Tournament]
"The Masters Tournament? And the ancient Pokémon region? I guess it will be some version released later." Teng Shu thought casually.
Looking at the news above, Teng Shu yawned out of boredom, then held his chin and continued reading, and fell asleep unknowingly.
The breeze was just right, the weather was not hot, and the chirping of cicadas could be heard outside the window. Teng Shu fell into a deep sleep without any worries. When he woke up, he saw Fugui.
"Fugui? Are you done with get out of class?" Teng Shu looked at Fugui with some surprise. Teng Shu hadn't seen Fugui much during this period. He was busy filming a movie, and Fugui was busy going to school, so Teng Shu and Fugui hadn't seen each other for a while. However, Teng Shu still often gave Fugui fear sugar cubes.
Fugui turned around happily and raised something in his hand. Teng Shu took a look and saw that it was a degree certificate from Hoenn University, a double degree certificate in human resources management and economic management. Teng Shu was stunned by it.
"You graduated?" Teng Shu was a little surprised. As someone who had been to college, Teng Shu naturally knew how difficult it was to get a double degree in college. What's more, Fugui applied for graduation in advance. Just preparing for the exams and thesis alone was probably enough to make Fugui's application shocking.
Moreover, if you apply for graduation early, the thesis defense will be more rigorous, so it is not easy to pass.
So Teng Shu was really a little surprised.
Fugui nodded happily, then brought out two documents and handed them to Teng Shu. Teng Shu took them and took a look. It was the notice of admission. Teng Shu's mouth twitched. He really never dreamed that Fugui could get admission for a double degree. So, did Fugui have to study for two graduate degrees at the same time?
God have mercy on him, Teng Shu was just an undergraduate student and had never attended graduate school. Unexpectedly, he traveled to the world of Pokémon and his Pokémon went to graduate school instead.
Looking at Fugui's degree of involution and his talent, Teng Shu always feels that Fugui might go to study for a doctorate in the future. After all, Fugui is really talented in studying.
"So are you going?" Teng Shu asked Fugui, but although he was asking, Teng Shu already had an expectation in his heart. He felt that Fugui would definitely go. After all, Fugui was really dedicated to studying. Although Teng Shu himself felt that it was a bit outrageous that this little guy Fugui had such a high talent for learning.
Fugui nodded as expected, and Teng Shu had no intention of refusing. He didn't engage in Pokémon battles, so Teng Shu naturally supported his Pokémon being able to have their own lives.
Moreover, Teng Shu has always had his own arrangements for Fugui. Teng Shu supports Fugui's studies. After all, if Fugui's academic performance improves, Teng Shu can let Fugui start training. In the future, he can help Teng Shu manage Dewen Company or Ghost Pictures. At that time, Teng Shu only needs to be responsible for handling some important documents.
Otherwise, just look at your old father Mu Jin and you will know. Until now, your old father Mu Jin has not been able to live the life he wants. Although as the president of Dewen Company, your old father has great power and wealth every day, but he can only be bound to the position of president.
"Okay, I support you to go, but you also have to come to the company for an internship during your holidays and spare time. Human resource management and economics, these things all require practice to gain true knowledge." Teng Shu touched Fugui's head. The cold touch brought a hint of chilliness. Fugui nodded seriously. He knew in college that there are many people studying human resource management, but not many people can really apply what they have learned in their work.
The class teacher later told it that these majors are generally studied by people who have family businesses, because they can only truly use what they have learned. Ordinary people, if they want to manage people after learning, often have a long way to go, and most people eventually become small employees in the human resources department.
Seeing Fugui's happy look, Teng Shu also smiled, then stretched and got up from the sofa. The old housekeeper also came over and whispered to Teng Shu that it was time to eat.
Teng Shu also took Fugui, Xiao Q and others to have a meal together, but he was alone at the meal because his father had a meeting and his brother had work.
"Sure enough, I still need to train it. I wonder if there will be some Pokémon in the future that can perfectly help people with their work?" Teng Shu thought about this question while eating. The Butler who can perfectly serve as a butler and nanny has appeared. It shouldn't be a problem to have a Pokémon that can perfectly help people with their work, right?
With such wild thoughts in mind, Teng Shu held his laptop and finished writing the entire script of The Truman Show in his bedroom. Only then did he fall into a deep sleep with contentment.
The next day, Teng Shu got up from the bed yawning, then looked out the window. Then Teng Shu shu shuddered all over because he saw a pair of blood-red eyes looking at him outside the window.
However, Teng Shu soon recognized the guy's identity from his huge size.
"Mr. Gengar?" Teng Shu was a little surprised. Didn't Gengar go to see his friends earlier? He came back so soon.
"Teng Shu, when I came back I saw you feeding Fugui fear cubes." Gengar's resentful voice made Teng Shu shiver all over. This guy, this voice doesn't even need any other processing, it can be used as material for a horror movie, it's really amazing.
Teng Shu coughed, then opened the window, and Gengar flowed in like a pool of water, and then his two big eyes stared at the fear sugar cube that Teng Shu placed on the table.
Teng Shu felt a little helpless, as he was going to give these fear cubes to Fugui. After all, Fugui would go to graduate school in the future, and by then he would probably start the involution again. Although some graduate students have to do experiments and projects with their supervisors, Fugui is, after all, a Pokémon who has been involution to the extreme.
So according to Teng Shu's understanding of wealth, this little guy will definitely graduate early.
"Mr. Gengar, this one is yours." Teng Shu had no choice but to take out the candy-making machine and make ten fear candies for Gengar on the spot. Gengar happily accepted them.
Teng Shu shook his head helplessly at the look on Gengar's face, but then Teng Shu had some other ideas. After all, he now needed to shoot a horror short film, and Teng Shu had already thought about the selection of the horror short film, but he still needed some actors.
However, considering that the main target audience of this horror film is wild Pokémon, Teng Shu plans to shoot it with Pokémon as the protagonist, and Gengar is very suitable to play the evil spirit in it.
However, the scene selection should focus on the daily life of wild Pokémon. Thinking of this, Teng Shu had an idea.
Most wild Pokémon need to drink water, so it would be more immersive if they were haunted while drinking water, right?
"Mr. Gengar, are you interested in acting in a movie?" Teng Shu looked at Gengar with a smile. Gengar shuddered all over and then fell silent.
Teng Shu looked at Gengar in confusion. Logically, Gengar should be very interested in this matter. After all, Gengar had participated in the film before and even received Fear Cubes as remuneration. Why was he suddenly hesitant now?
Chapter 327: The Burnt Bell on the Bell Tower
Teng Shu looked at Gengar in confusion, but Gengar didn't say anything. It just looked a little strange. In the end, it rejected Teng Shu's request and did not come to act in the short film. It even didn't play its favorite game of rock-paper-scissors and just left, leaving Teng Shu stunned.
"Why do I always feel like Gengar is hiding something from me?" Teng Shu looked at the direction where Gengar left with some confusion and scratched his head, but he didn't think much about it. Since Gengar was unwilling to act, Teng Shu could only replace him with another actor. Although Teng Shu thought that the effect would be better if Gengar was in the role, there was nothing he could do since Gengar was unwilling to act now.
For this horror short film, Teng Shu used a new template, which was not the horror short film from his previous life.
Teng Shu did this in order to get closer to the main audience group this time.
"Let me see. Most wild Pokémon need to drink water, so we can just set up a horror story that takes place at a drinking point." Teng Shu thought for a moment, then simply wrote a script.
The biggest difference between a horror short film and a horror film is the length. A horror short film is very short, so in order to achieve a more efficient scare, most horror short films actually use the jump-face scare.
Including After Turning Off the Lights, there are also some classic horror shorts. In fact, if you watch more of them, you will find that these shorts basically have a ghost face suddenly jump out at the last moment to scare people.
Then add some sound effects and stuff. Even though it’s very cliché, I have to say that the face-jumping scare is really effective.
At least in this case, the jump-face scare is almost the only type of horror short film that can be chosen. After all, the length of the short film is limited, and it is impossible to tell the entire story in such a short time, so this method is the only one that can be adopted.
A short film is not a problem for Teng Shu now, but after finishing it, Teng Shu patted his head.
Teng Shu had been working for so long that he almost forgot that there was a company behind him.
Thinking of this, Teng Shu sent a message to Zoroark about his plan to shoot a short film this time, and asked Zoroark to go to the company's work group to assign the task, and let the person in charge of the company's plot group write the script, and he would take a look at it later.
"Unconsciously, I have become the boss who assigns work tasks to others after get off work." Teng Shu looked at the reply from Zoroark on his phone and couldn't help but think of a joke he had heard in his previous life.
Ducks quack, chickens cluck, so how do cows and horses quack?
He received the shout and there was some self-mockery in his laughter.
However, Teng Shu does not assign such tasks often. Most of the time, Teng Shu will not assign work after get off work. After all, he does not want to be hung on the street light.
After explaining the task of the short film, Teng Shu felt a lot more relaxed.
With nothing to do, Teng Shu opened the Hoenn horror movie fans communication group, intending to see what these group members were doing.
[Not some dirty demon king: Have you watched any new movies recently? Many recent movies use that kind of super virtual technology! ]
Teng Shu raised his eyebrows. This was really interesting. He had just opened the group and saw that they were discussing his new technology. However, when thinking of this new technology, Teng Shu's expression became a little subtle. This new patent could be said to have made Teng Shu a lot of money. And it seemed that having tasted the sweetness, many large companies had begun to rent or purchase Teng Shu's cameras.
Now the rental and sale of cameras has become a major source of income for Ghost Pictures.
However, Teng Shu actually doesn't think much of this. What he values more are the other benefits that this thing brings him. Ghost Pictures has now gotten rid of the embarrassing situation before. Ghost Pictures almost became the public enemy of the industry.
But with the emergence of the youth version, this problem has been solved. Although it is not a complete solution, it is much better than before. At least Teng Shu basically no longer receives the previous harassing calls, and the occasional calls he receives are from people who want to ask if they can use the original version of the camera.
After all, the original version of the camera was more powerful and easier to use, but because of the energy supply problem, Teng Shu declined all of them. Although the representatives of those companies felt it was a pity, they did not force it.
Although the youth version of the camera is not that powerful, it can still be used, so there is no need to offend Teng Shu.
[I am depressed: I have watched it, but it is still quite interesting. I heard that some people who make pornographic movies also want to borrow this new camera (dog head)]
[I declare that being sleazy is the way to go: What? Dirty? If this thing can really use that kind of camera, I will immediately support the genuine version! ]
Looking at these group members who were quickly going off topic, Teng Shu silently turned off his phone. These guys were really brave, but Teng Shu did know something about what they were talking about. These people had actually rented a house before, but gave up because they could not afford the high rent.
But I guess with the emergence of these new movies and the box office revenue, there will always be people who can't help themselves.
At this moment, Teng Shu's cell phone rang. He picked up the phone and took a look. It was a message from Director Kirk.
[Kirk: Director Teng Shu, I will come to your company tomorrow to sign an agreement. I hope I won't bother you?]
The old man was as decisive as ever, and Teng Shu quickly said no.
Teng Shu had discussed with Kirk about filming the movie before, but the old man said that he had to go get a script that he liked very much, so he didn't come to Teng Shu for the time being. Later, he was delayed for a while because of some family matters.
However, Teng Shu did not urge him. According to Director Kirk's status and style of doing things, since the other party had already agreed verbally, Teng Shu did not have to worry that the other party would go back on his word. Director Kirk was not such a person.
And now, the old man is coming, and Teng Shu is also very happy. After all, this is the first work after the old man's comeback, and it will definitely cause a great market response. In other words, it is a sure win.
With such expectation, Teng Shu met Mr. Kirk in the company the next day. At the same time, Teng Shu also noticed that Mr. Kirk was followed by an old man of the same age. The other party was dressed very ordinary, but had a scholarly air.
"Teng Shu, this is my old friend. He has worked with me for many years and provided me with many excellent scripts." Kirk introduced with a smile. After Kirk said this, Teng Shu knew who the other party was. He was a very famous screenwriter, very capable and well-known.
However, after Kirk retired, he rarely released new works and faded out of the entertainment industry. Unexpectedly, director Kirk brought him here.
"Welcome, welcome. I've long heard of your great name, sir." Teng Shu said with a smile. The other party was not arrogant and shook hands with Teng Shu politely. Then he took out a script. Teng Shu took a look at it. It said "Rear Window", which made Teng Shu's eyes light up.
Rear window? Could this rear window be that rear window?
Teng Shu was a little curious.
Although the Pokémon world is a different world, to some extent this different world also has many shadows of previous lives, so there are also some classic movies and TV series here. Coupled with the character setting of director Kirk, Teng Shu feels that this Rear Window is very likely the Rear Window he had in mind.
Sure enough, after a quick look, Teng Shu confirmed that it was indeed the very classic Rear Window.
Teng Shu also quickly signed a contract with Director Kirk and the old man. Kirk would take the old man to shoot a movie. As for what would happen afterwards, they would talk about it later. Teng Shu had no objection to this.
Kirk is rich and famous, he has everything he wants, so it is difficult to tempt the old man in this way, so Teng Shu can only let the old man experience the power of the new technology himself. It is hard to say whether Kirk will be willing to continue filming then.
Although Director Kirk is old, his skills are there. Teng Shu is still very interested if he can sign Director Kirk under his command.
But we can't rush things now, so Teng Shu didn't mention this matter. He just asked about the budget Director Kirk needed, and then asked Zoroark to allocate funds. He then told Kirk to add more if it was not enough. Kirk smiled even more.
A client like Teng Shu, who pays quickly and does little work, is simply the perfect client.
"Boss, Hoenn has a charity auction party and invites you to attend. Do you want to go?" After Director Kirk and the others left, Zoroark said this to Teng Shu. After hearing Zoroark's words, Teng Shu paused. Charity auction party?
It seems that because he has a charity foundation under his command, plus his donations, Teng Shu was recognized as a philanthropist. This is a good reputation, but it also represents some minor troubles, that is, there will always be some charity evenings or caring people and organizations coming to him for help.
After all, most of the problems in this world can be solved with money.
There are too many people who come to Teng Shu to borrow money or to donate money. The account that Teng Shu gave to the company's public relations team for operation and maintenance receives similar messages every day. If Teng Shu is left to reply to all of them alone, he probably won't be able to do anything else throughout the day.
"Let me see." Teng Shu took the flyer handed over by Zoroark and took a look. This was a charity party held in Shuijing City. Some things would be auctioned at the party, and all the proceeds from the auction would be donated to charity organizations.
It was a very standard charity gala, but the items on auction were quite interesting, and one of them really caught Teng Shu's attention.
