Chapter 359

This last point alone is enough to attract countless people in the industry to come here to learn!

Let them look at the subsequent plot of "Sea of ​​Stone" with such expectant eyes, what kind of changes should be made?

In other words, after so many drastic turns and reversals.

What kind of ending should the follow-up plot of "Sea of ​​Stone" have?

People in the industry are full of curiosity about this.

You must know such things as turning and reversal, although everyone likes them very much.

Because after such a turning point, the original storyline will immediately become unpredictable.

That is to say, the audience will have the freshness of this story again as when they first watched it!

For example, in "Kamen Rider Sword", when the screenwriter of the story was changed from the original Imai Shoji to Aikawa Noboru as the subsequent screenwriter.

Originally, the ratings were going to reach a new low. "Kamen Rider", a resurgent IP, may soon learn from the Tsuburaya company next door and produce a failed "Kamen Rider Sword".

It was in this sudden reversal that the originally boring plot, which had been told for more than half of the plot without knowing what it was about, took a U-turn and staged the most romantic ending in the history of special photography!

So when it came to "Kamen Rider Hibiki", when faced with the first reaction of declining ratings, Aunt Azuma thought of changing the screenwriter to save the show, using new twists and turns to restore the ratings.

But the audience's expectations have a threshold.

Perhaps after experiencing a turning point, the audience will be full of expectations for the plot after the turning point.

After experiencing the second twist, the audience will still be full of expectations for the plot after the second twist.

But when the third, fourth...several turns were played together in front of the audience.

Will they still have expectations for the twists and turns in the plot as they did at the beginning?

impossible.

The audience will just become accustomed to this plot with constant twists and turns.

This is also what people in the industry most want to see.

If "Sea of ​​Stone" can still meet the audience's expectations for the work in some way under such circumstances.

There is no doubt that it has established a sect in the industry, so that newcomers who also want to learn this continuous transition method will have a direction that is enough to refer to.

And if it fails...

That's okay too.

That’s why people in the industry watch Sea of ​​Stone anyway.

I just want to take a look at "Sea of ​​Stone", which challenges the unspoken rules of the industry. What kind of end will it face?

This can be regarded as allowing "Sea of ​​Stone" to contribute to the industry until the end.

Before the newcomers even thought about committing suicide like this, the producers and investors dragged them to watch "Sea of ​​Stone" and warned them that if they still thought about committing suicide like this, "Sea of ​​Stone" would lead to a tragic death. The fate will be their fate in the future!

So be the center of this storm.

What kind of situation are Pucci and the others in now?

"How's it going? Did the other party agree?"

Sitting in front of the phone, Pucci couldn't help but feel impatient when he saw Shinbo Akiyuki, who had just put the phone back not long ago. His silent look made him feel impatient.

"..."

"Well, it seems that there is no agreement." Pucci sighed and said: "But if the other party didn't agree, then he didn't agree! I don't believe it. Among so many classic works in the industry, none of them will always be unresolved. Agree to this request of giving both money and publicity!”

Well, Pucci and the others are completely ignoring the turmoil outside the industry.

It's not that they don't know the current predicament of "Sea of ​​Stone".

But it is different from what people in the industry imagined.

Rather than continuing to make a big twist in the plot, we can continue to raise the audience's threshold.

Pucci, who copied the works of his previous life Mr. Araki, created this plot.

In fact, I have already thought of a solution to this problem.

In other words, it is a new approach, since the audience has already raised their expectations for the plot twist much higher.

Then they won't do any more plot twists and reversals.

Wouldn't it be better to use other methods to divert the expectations in the hearts of the audience?

This is——

--【Bohemian Rhapsody】!

Even among the many stand-ins in "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure", this one is the most special one!

Because its substitute ability is the ability to turn fantasy works such as animations, novels, games, and even art paintings into reality.

In other words, it can summon superheroes such as Superman and Ultraman from the works, and it can also summon everyone's wives such as Yukinoshita Yukino and Tohsaka Rin, and make them the protagonists. Experience this original story with these female characters!

That’s right, [Bohemian Rhapsody] is such a stand-in that all two-dimensional characters dream of!

And in order to show the effect of this stand-in.

In particular, the Stand, which has an almost infinite range, and the characters in countless fantasy works that are continuously affected by it are shown in "Sea of ​​Stone".

Pucci and the others naturally have to be like the filming of "Ready Player One".

Go and negotiate with major manufacturers on copyright issues for this character.

Of course, this can also be like Pucci's "Sea of ​​Stone" in his previous life, which blurs the appearance of these well-known characters so that the audience knows what characters these are, and at the same time, there will be no infringement.

But compared to the benefits brought by the character copyright, the feeling of blurring the character and the appearance of a character that the audience really likes in the work is definitely different.

The box office performance of "Ready Player One" further illustrates this point.

And if they had the opportunity to play a big one, Pucci and the others would of course have to play a big one!

Even "Sea of ​​Stone" was originally about the plot of "Bohemian Rhapsody".

Pucci also gave the entire article a major overhaul.

Most of the fairy tale characters in the original work were converted into well-known IP characters in the industry to rewrite the plot!

After all, that's what "Bohemian Rhapsody" in the original book is like.

There is only one way to defeat this stand.

As long as this method can be found.

Then the middle plot, no matter what kind of story Anna Sui and the others are dragged into, will have no impact.

In this case, I was just dragged into the fairy tale "Seven Little Sheep and the Big Bad Wolf", which probably no one has heard of, to encounter the danger of the big bad wolf being disemboweled.

How can it compare to being dragged into "Detective Conan" and experiencing the dangers from the perspective of a victim who is targeted by the "god of death"?

It just seemed like their previous taunts were a little too harsh.

Until now, they have not dealt with the copyright issues of these characters.

Could it be that we can only go back to the original place and use those fairy tales whose copyright has expired?

Just when Pucci was thinking this way.

Shinfang Akira finally said: "No, that's not the case."

"It's better to say that for some reason, everyone seems to have changed their tone and is suddenly full of interest in our request for cooperation?"

"?"

Pucci was stunned for a moment.

"Actually, what I was worried about just now was not how to solve our linkage problem, but that there were so many works that could be linked, which made it difficult for me to choose..."

Shinbo Akiyuki said distressedly: "I feel that every one of the works I contacted is very good, and every one of them wants me to link up in the chapter [Bohemian Rhapsody]."

"But with the length of a chapter like [Bohemian Rhapsody], it's impossible to realize my wish, so I can't make a choice..."

"..."

...

Chapter 482: Your Majesty, do you still remember Xia Yuhe by Daming Lake?

I have to say, this is really a happy trouble.

Thanks to the plot of "Sea of ​​Stone", it started from the first stage and entered the second stage.

Different from "Diamonds Are Forever", after Kira Yoshikage was discovered by Higashikata Josuke and others for the first time, he could only use plastic surgery to hide elsewhere to avoid the pursuit of Higashikata Josuke and others, and then... The plot of the first stage is repeated.

Let the viewers of "Diamonds Are Forever" watch this.

It seems that I have seen something, and it seems that I have not seen something.

And in "Sea of ​​Stone".

Although Father Pucci's true identity was similar to what happened to Yoshikage Kira, he was discovered and exposed by Xu Lun and others.

But Father Pucci's purpose is different from Kira Yoshikage's. It has already been completed!

Take "Diamonds Are Forever" as an example. After Yoshikage Kira's true identity was discovered by Higashikata Josuke and the others for the first time, he did not think of using Cinderella's stand-in ability to rearrange himself into a "normal" one. people" to hide.

But directly under the pressure of this despair, he was stabbed by the [arrow] one step ahead, and awakened the new substitute ability of [Loser Eats Dust].

The plot of "Diamonds Are Forever" after "Cinderella".

Come directly to the plot of "Diamond is Immortal" after "The Loser Eats Dust"!

Although these are all plots after Kira Yoshikage's identity was exposed.

But obviously, the influence of the latter can be directly used as the OP, and its popularity in the hearts of the audience is definitely not comparable to the former.

Therefore, I chose the latter and skipped the former "Sea of ​​Stone".

Not only does it serve as a nice homage to the plot of Diamonds Are Forever.

In the process of paying tribute, we can also screen out the shortcomings of "Diamond is Forever" and leave only the advantages!

It can be said that this is a clear understanding of the matter of tribute.

It not only takes care of the old audiences who have watched "Diamonds Are Forever".

It also takes care of new viewers who don't like this kind of encore plot.

In conjunction with the green baby chapter, the continuous big twists and reversals performed by Father Pucci and Xu Lun made the audience full of expectations for this plot and once again gave this sense of expectation. When raising one floor.

Even before, Green Dolphin Studio really wanted to resist the unspoken rules of the industry and was prepared to slap them, the industry insiders, in the face.

But after taking a look at the increasing number of views and discussions of "Sea of ​​Stone".

Industry insiders still followed their hearts and directly agreed to the authorization request of the character IP of Green Dolphin Studio.

There was no hesitation at all!

After all, making money is not bad.

Don't look at this matter as if Green Dolphin Studio is begging them to borrow the IP authorization of those well-known characters in their hands.

But to be honest, isn't this also begging Green Dolphin Studio?

You should know that when "Ultraman" was at its peak, "Masked Rider" was just a new project in the draft.

Even in a certain Eastern country next door, if the disc of Kamen Rider did not add a suffix of "Ultraman" to the end to indicate that their "Masked Rider" is also "Ultraman", I am afraid that even pirated discs would not be sold.

The IP of "Ultraman" was so invincible in that era!

However, with the serious corruption of the family business of Tsuburaya Company, coupled with the ancestral desire of Tsuburaya Company to commit suicide, the shooting progress of the new "Ultraman" was delayed.

Even now, it is impossible to guarantee that the audience can see a new episode of "Ultraman" every week like the other three major special effects works in Japan.

In this case, the revenue of toys and peripherals of "Kamen Rider" exceeds the revenue of players and peripherals of "Ultraman", which seems to be a matter of course.

After all, not every work is "Dragon Ball".

But even "Dragon Ball" has the new work "Dragon Ball Super" launched later, and the new theater version that echoes this new work, to continue to provide new popularity for this old IP.

Prevent this IP from being gradually forgotten by the audience.

Because under normal circumstances.

Once an IP has no new works to maintain it, it will naturally be forgotten by the audience, or it will be snatched away by the new IPs that are constantly launched by the industry, and the attention of the audience will be taken away.
