Pokémon's Lord of Fear

"By the way, boss, the famous film critic Tom, who has served as a judge at many Alliance Film Festivals, recently wrote a film review about Truman." Zoroak looked at Teng Shu's scalp tingling and provided good news.

"Oh?" Teng Shu actually became interested. He also knew Judge Tom. He was once a handsome actor and had won the Best Actor award. Later, he switched to being a director and was also very successful. Finally, he retired from the film industry because of his age. However, he also became a film critic and had a very high status.

Although the name always makes Teng Shu feel a little confused.

However, the judge's opinion is still very important. His opinion determines whether "The Truman Show" can succeed in winning the award in the end. So Teng Shu picked up his phone and flipped through it. He soon found the review of "The Truman Show". The other party had just posted it for an hour, and the number of readings exceeded 30 million. You can imagine how famous the other party is.

[“The Truman Show” is a thought-provoking science fiction drama. I personally even feel that director Teng Shu made this autobiographical film for the entire film and television industry and a group of unique people.

The film tells the story of Truman, but in my opinion, it is not just about Truman. Sometimes I even feel a sense of immersion when watching it.

Truman has lived in a small town that seems ordinary but is full of mysteries since he was a child. Since his birth, his life has been recorded and broadcast live on a reality show called "The Truman Show". Hundreds of millions of viewers around the world watch his life every day. His father, mother, wife, friends, and even strangers on the street are all actors.

Truman's life is routine. He drives to work, chats with neighbors, and shops in the supermarket. Everything seems so normal. Isn't it the same as ordinary people? Ordinary people also live like this. However, as he grows older, he begins to notice some strange things around him, such as the sudden drop of the camera light, the mysterious sound of radio waves from the radio, and some incoherent scenes in his memory, such as his wife's exaggerated performance when promoting products, and the inexplicable storm. These signs gradually make him suspicious.

He began his search for the truth, a process full of challenges and obstacles. People around him were trying to maintain this false world. Truman's experience profoundly reflects the extreme development of the mass entertainment industry in modern society. In this fictional world, the audience regards Truman as an object of entertainment, and Truman's life is sold as a commodity.

After watching it, I sometimes even felt that I was just an actor, an actor being watched by others.

What surprised me even more was the protagonist Yin Carrey. I know Yin Carrey, and he is an outstanding actor. However, it was precisely because of his excellence that he encountered some difficult problems. Fortunately, Yin Carrey seems to have come out of it now.

And Silver Carrey also vividly interpreted Truman's process from an ignorant acceptance of the status quo to a desire for the truth and then to a resolute resistance with his outstanding acting skills.

When Truman finally discovered the truth, he broke through one man-made barrier after another and headed towards the real, unknown sea. Faced with the director's obstruction, he was not intimidated by his adoptive father's obstruction, nor was he fettered by the temptation of the false world.

The movie tells us in a shocking way that in real life, we may also get lost in false appearances, but only by maintaining a persistent pursuit of truth like Truman can we truly achieve self-worth and freedom of the soul.

I am looking forward to presenting an award to Director Teng Shu at the Alliance Film Festival.]

The film review was not very long, but Teng Shu was very happy because Tom's review meant that he had taken a big step on the road to the best film. The next step was to see what his competitors would be.

Sometimes, the world is very strange. There may not be many excellent movies released in a year. Then when the awards are given, it may happen that everyone is optimistic about A, and if it is not possible, B or C will be given. After all, although B and C do not quite conform to the award rules, they are also good works. What most people did not expect was that the final award was given to D!

So the question is, who is D?

Although it has a little bit of fame, it is definitely not a work that can be compared with ABC.

However, Teng Shu was not worried about such a thing happening to himself. After all, if someone wanted to play dirty tricks, Teng Shu was the one with the most capital to do so.

"Now those little black guys can't use my lack of awards as an excuse, right?" Teng Shu said with a smile.

"Boss, they said you've never won the Best Picture award." Zoroark added dimly.

Chapter 358 Rear Window and A Wei

Teng Shu's face turned black. These guys only knew how to use the Best Picture award to make a fuss. However, now with "The Truman Show" and these film reviews, Teng Shu felt that it was basically a foregone conclusion that he would win the Best Picture award. After all, more than a quarter of the new year had passed, and there were no other more outstanding films. Teng Shu was still quite confident.

"But boss, didn't Mr. Kirk also make a movie?" Zoroak remembered another thing. Hearing this, Teng Shu was stunned for a moment. Yes, Mr. Kirk also made a movie, and Teng Shu watched the whole process.

But after watching it, Teng Shu couldn't be sure whether this movie was the same as Rear Window in his previous life. Although the name was the same, Teng Shu couldn't be sure. After all, what he saw on the set and the actual edited movie might be different. Teng Shu himself was very clear about this.

Take "The Grudge" for example. When it was being filmed, it wasn't that dark, and some scenes were rather scattered and messy. Some scenes still required actors to arrange the scenes on the spot, and there were a lot of people. The actors all deliberately acted like they were frightened, but in reality they were not scared at all.

But after the filming, editing, and sound effects of "The Grudge" were completed, even Fujikiko, who played Kayako, was scared by herself.

What's more, the same movie may have different experiences due to different editors and different methods, so Teng Shu couldn't be sure what Mr. Kirk's Rear Window was like. Thinking of this, Teng Shu felt a little headache.

"Rear Window", as one of Hitchcock's famous films, can be said to be the pioneer of some film genres, so this status is naturally there. Teng Shu has naturally seen it. After all, horror movies are not always good, and if you don't want to disgust yourself by watching bad movies, Teng Shu will choose to watch some classic movies to expand his knowledge reserves.

The plot of "Rear Window" is actually not very complicated. In short, a photojournalist has to stay at home because he broke his leg. He can't bear the loneliness at home, so he starts to spy on his neighbors' lives and discovers some little gossip.

Later, the photojournalist accidentally discovered that one of his neighbors seemed to have killed his wife, and then began to look for evidence. He encountered some setbacks and dangers, but finally found the evidence and successfully sent the other party to prison.

It's a very short plot, but such a short plot has achieved an excellent result and won unanimous praise from many people. It is even hailed as a masterpiece in the "voyeurism" movie and has received high reviews. Based on the scenes he saw on the set, Teng Shu feels that this Rear Window is most likely the same Rear Window as the previous life.

This was quite interesting, and made Teng Shu feel a little amused and helpless.

The reason why it's so funny is that the movie Rear Window was created because of him. Originally, Mr. Kirk had no idea of ​​making a comeback to make a movie, and there was no Rear Window in this world. However, with the emergence of Teng Shu's new technology, this aroused the old man's desire to make a comeback, and then Rear Window was filmed.

"That movie is also very good, but overall, I think I still have the advantage." Teng Shu coughed. Although he was a little worried, he was not particularly worried. After all, Teng Shu himself knew very well that Rear Window had some limitations.

Although, the protagonist in Rear Window solved a murder case because of peeping and even helped the law bring the murderer to justice, to some extent, his behavior was illegal, so there are some limitations.

Although the Alliance's Best Film Award is based on the plot, as a film festival organized by the Alliance itself, it is inevitable that public order and good morals need to be considered. Therefore, in this regard, Teng Shu's "The Truman Show" has some advantages. Of course, if you have to grasp the details, you can also say that Truman's life was manipulated and he was illegally imprisoned.

"Boss, what's the name of that movie? Mr. Kirk took it back for editing and he still hasn't finished editing it yet." Zoroark couldn't help but ask. He was really curious about this question. He also watched Mr. Kirk's movie later and it had to say that it was very stylish.

"Rear Window." Teng Shu said calmly. There was nothing wrong with the name. The movie was still being edited. Once the old man finished editing, the trailer would be released. However, Teng Shu felt that it was no problem not to release the trailer. After all, the old man's fame was there, and his comeback had also been a hot topic before.

Zoroark scratched his head. From the name, he only knew that this movie seemed to be related to windows, but he didn't know what style or story it was. Zoroark had no intention of asking. After all, asking would be like spoiling the plot for himself, and that would be meaningless.

Teng Shu yawned, then picked up the document in his hand. This was sent to him by Dewen Company, or rather, sent by Kuroda.

Although his father Mu Jin has returned to be the president, it is obvious that his old age means that Dewen Company needs an heir, and Daigo obviously has no such intention. If Teng Shu had not been born, Daigo would naturally have to take over and retire from the position of champion.

But now that we have Teng Shu, there is naturally no need for Daigo to give up the championship position.

"Dewen Company. Hmm? Is it planning to develop new energy vehicles for the future?" Teng Shu looked at the document in his hand. The development of Dewen Company has always been multi-faceted. After all, with such a large family and business, it is natural that they have so much time and money to develop in many aspects.

Teng Shu put it aside after reading it. He now had some ideas of his own about Dewen Company. His ideas were not very strange. He just planned to imitate the layout of some companies in his previous life.

After finishing the work of Dewen Company, Teng Shu went off work. Although the filming of Ju-Ji 2 has started, Teng Shu still has some time to do other things, such as solving the problem of Xijiana, and also telling Xijiana that the matter of the meteorite has been completely over.

When Teng Shu arrived at the prison, Xijiana was taking a walk.

When Teng Shu called her over, there was still a look of hatred on her face.

Looking at Xijiana like this, Teng Shu knew that Xijiana still could not forgive his family in her heart. However, Teng Shu did not intend to continue to argue with her on this issue. Unless he could go back to the past and change what his father had done, otherwise, Teng Shu felt that he probably would not be able to make Xijiana forgive her father Mu Jin.

"Why are you looking for me now?" Xijiana sat on the chair indifferently. She would be able to go out in a month.

After all, her crime was not particularly serious, and she had made meritorious contributions, so naturally she wouldn't have to stay in prison for too long.

"The meteorite issue has been resolved. I found a meteorite that can resonate with Rayquaza and allow it to mega evolve." Teng Shu took a sip of tea and said to Shijiana.

Xijiana was stunned for a moment, her eyes filled with surprise and disbelief.

Shijiana didn't think that Teng Shu would deceive her. After all, there was no need for this. There was no point in bullying her, and Teng Shu wouldn't be so boring. But she still found it a little hard to believe that Rayquaza would actually recognize Teng Shu, and then be in tune with Teng Shu and super evolve?

"I came here this time just to tell you that the crisis predicted by the Meteor People has been resolved by me." Teng Shu continued, and hearing this, Xijiana clenched her fists tightly and looked at Teng Shu with a cold expression.

After she was captured, she still did not give up her revenge, but she also knew the priorities of the matter, so she still told others about the meteorite. At the same time, Xijiana also wanted to take this opportunity to use the power of the alliance to suppress Mu Jin.

After all, although Deven is indeed a leading enterprise, the Alliance can become the master of this world not by relying on the harmonious coexistence of promoters and Pokémon, but by relying on power, pure, powerful power.

Seeing Xijiana's silence, Teng Shu had no intention of going up to her for talk therapy. He felt that he couldn't make others give up their hatred for their parents just by talking.

Teng Shu had known before that when Rayquaza was captured, there were some casualties, and among the casualties was Shijiana's father, so Shijiana would definitely not forgive Mu Jin, and Teng Shu had no intention of asking for trouble here.

"People." Teng Shu stood outside the prison, feeling inexplicably emotional.

Some of the wrong things that have been done can be made up for, but some can never be made up for. The old father has always wanted to make it up to Xijiana, but he will never be able to do so. Unless Xijiana's father comes back to life, according to Xijiana's personality, he will probably never forgive her.

"Hey, brother, were you released today too?" Just as Teng Shu was sighing, a man's voice came from the side, and Teng Shu turned his head to take a look.

Hey!

This is not Liang

Oh, no, although they are very similar, there are also some subtle differences. But overall, he does look a bit like the one who played Infernal Affairs, except that the clothes he wears are very simple.

"You too?" Teng Shu asked back with a smile. He didn't say that he was just here to visit the prison, and there was no need to cut hair in the prison in the Pokémon world, but it couldn't be too weird, so the other party didn't recognize that Teng Shu was not actually a talent inside.

"Yes, I was young and ignorant at the time, so I was sent to prison for a few years." The man said with a smile, looking very open-minded. Teng Shu was in the mood to talk. He planned to chat with him and find out about this guy's past.

When Teng Shu first saw this man, he thought of that once very classic movie.

Infernal Affairs

There is no need to say much about the status of the movie Infernal Affairs. In that era when Hong Kong films had not yet completely declined, Infernal Affairs was considered a very classic movie. Many memes were born in it, such as I want to be a good person and there was an insider who terminated the deal.

The story of Infernal Affairs takes place in 1991. Liu Jianming, also known as Hua Zai, is a member of the triad. He is arranged by Han Chen to enter the police academy and become an undercover police officer. At the same time, Chen Yongren, also known as actor Liang, is arranged by the police to infiltrate the triad and become an undercover policeman.

Liu Jianming rose through the ranks in the police department and became a member of Team A of the Criminal Intelligence Division, while Chen Yongren gradually gained the trust of the underworld but was unable to escape his undercover identity.

He also said the classic line: Three years later, another three years.

A failed drug deal exposes the existence of undercover agents on both sides. Both are suspected and fall into an identity crisis.

In the end, Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming confronted each other on the rooftop. Liu Jianming tried to admit his undercover identity and wanted to be a good person, but Chen Yongren refused to give him a chance for the sake of justice, and eventually Chen Yongren was killed.

Although Liu Jianming survived, his heart was full of guilt and pain, and this is where the setting of "Avici Hell" is finally reflected. The so-called Avici Hell is not a real hell, but the pain and struggle in Liu Jianming's heart. These emotions will accompany Liu Jianming throughout his life and make him unable to extricate himself.

"Infernal Affairs" was a phenomenal hit at the time, it was extremely popular, so naturally Infernal Affairs 2 and Infernal Affairs 3 were launched. As for the ratings, it can only be said that although they are still very good, there are also some controversies.

Soon, in a restaurant, Teng Shu learned about the old man's past.

But the more he listened, the more subtle Teng Shu felt.

This man named Awei was once a student at the police academy, but because he was young and undisciplined, he was kicked out after only a year and a half in prison. He then wandered around in society, joined a dark organization, and ended up in this prison.

Although the other party did not say much, looking at his expression, Teng Shu had some guesses. He was probably imprisoned this time to take the blame for his boss. However, since the other party did not say it, Teng Shu naturally would not ask.

But Teng Shu felt more and more that this person's life experience was really like that of an undercover agent.

In the Pokémon world, there is the Dark Organization and Miss Junsa, so it is inevitable that there is such an undercover agent.

After exchanging contact information with the other party, Teng Shu also said that he was not a prisoner, but a director. After all, there was no need to hide such a thing, as he could be recognized at a glance.

"The heir of Dewen Company?" Sure enough, after Ah Wei searched for Teng Shu's information, he also showed a surprised look.

He really didn't expect that this young man had such a powerful background.

He was in prison for four or five years, just missing Teng Shu's rise to fame, and naturally had never seen Teng Shu's movies.

After chatting for a while, Awei left. Teng Shu wanted to invite him back, but Awei refused.

"He can't really be an undercover agent, right?" Teng Shu scratched his head, a little curious.

Chapter 359 The First Commandment Begins Filming

Although he was somewhat curious as to whether this man named Awei was an undercover agent, it was obviously impossible for Teng Shu to go and ask him directly. After all, asking someone whether he was an undercover agent was a very stupid behavior no matter how you looked at it.

So Teng Shu didn't think much about it. After all, even if Awei was really an undercover agent, it had nothing to do with him.

Now in the entire Hoenn region, the Magma Team and Water Fleet, the only teams with some influence, have been suppressed by the Alliance. They can only hide in dark corners to lick their wounds and look for opportunities to come out and move again.

So even if Ah Wei is an undercover agent, he probably has nowhere else to go undercover. It's hard to say whether Ah Wei will go directly to the Water Fleet or the Lava Team the next time we meet.

"The world is full of wonders, but I heard that there are indeed some people who are not relatives, and don't even know each other, but look very similar." Teng Shu took a sip of the fruit tea in his hand, then sighed.

For example, a certain crosstalk artist and a certain famous singer really do look a bit similar. Another example is the endless stream of imitators of various stars in the past life. At that time, as long as you looked similar to a star, you could make money from this. There were also some imitators of football stars.

So when Teng Shu saw Ah Wei, who looked exactly like actor Leung, he was not too surprised.
