"That, Super Mario..."

"Let's talk about this."

"That Pokémon..."

"Well...you can consider it."

"Great, I can immediately arrange the production of the top screenwriter..."

"Can you imagine what a live-action Pokémon would look like?"

"This... is to express those Pokémon in a more high-definition 3D form, and then follow what you said, faithful to the original."

"How do you stay true to the original? The story in the game is simply to fight monsters and upgrade, and then challenge different gyms step by step, and finally become the top trainer. In this process, the story game is almost blank."

"It seems... also."

In any case, Tukarev is also a very good friend, and the cooperation between the two parties is not bad.

Zhu Youxing finally thought about it, so he said: "Let me recommend a few works for you. It is actually quite difficult to adapt games such as Mario, The Legend of Zelda, and Pokémon to film and television dramas. I ask you to It is necessary to take care of the feelings of the players, and the stories of this kind of games are often relatively monotonous, without a good enough director and screenwriter, it is difficult to really make a good film."

Before Zhu Youxing crossed, Mario only had a live-action movie in a very early period.

However, apart from the fact that the movie is called Super Mario Bros., the others are simply wrong.

This movie is standard garbage.

Later, Zhu Yuxing knew that Nintendo had cooperated to develop a Mario animation movie before he traveled. Unfortunately, he didn't have a chance to see it when he traveled, so it is not clear whether the Super Mario animation movie will be successful.

However, he was very impressed with the live-action adaptation of Pokémon, which was the first attempt to express Pokémon in the form of a live-action performance.

However, the entry point of that movie was different. It didn’t develop the story with the main character of the Pokémon trainer, but a derivative game of the Pokémon series: the real-life adaptation of Detective Pikachu. This is also a trick. If it is not done well, you can also use the reason that this is a derivative work to convince players who like this game.

And if it succeeds, it proves that the direction of this form is correct, and then you can continue to develop similar adaptations in depth.

However, that work can only be said to be neither good nor bad.

Hearing that Zhu Youxing finally couldn't bear his begging and was willing to recommend and authorize some works for himself, Tukarev immediately became interested.

"Zhuyou, what kind of work are you talking about? As long as the popularity is enough, I will definitely do my best to make this work well, and I will definitely be faithful to the original work."

Zhu Youxing spread his hands and said: "Just remake the story of the chapter of GTA Liberty City into a TV series. Focusing on Nico, an illegal immigrant from Eastern Europe, it may be enough to film two or three seasons. What do you think?"

"A TV show..."

Tukarev was slightly disappointed.

It's not that he doesn't look down on TV.

It's just that he still prefers to work hard in movies, and he is more familiar with the movie circle.

But speaking of it, this GTA is really quite popular recently.

He also played the game, and was also impressed by Nico in the game.

He even felt that the Nico Zhu Youxing described was simply another copy of himself.

He is also considered an immigrant to the United States.

He is a Russian himself, and then he came to the United States for some reasons, hoping to break out of his own world here.

If Zhu Youxing hadn't helped him when he was in a desperate situation and made his Xinghai Infinity series of movies a hit, he might have returned to Russia to inherit the family business in despair, doing things he didn't like to do at all , I will live in the shadow of my elders for the rest of my life.

But now, he has his own business, and it's thriving.

If Nico in the game had someone like Zhu Youxing to help him, perhaps he would have taken a completely different path.

At this point, Tukarev is very empathetic to Nico.

Zhu Youxing said: "Of course, I don't need to waste my words if it is only authorized to you by the chapter of GTA Liberty City. I can also authorize you to develop film and television adaptations of the Assassin's Creed and Metal Gear series. I only have one request, and that is to restore In the original book, please the players first, and then consider pleasing other people."

In his previous life, Zhu Youxing had seen too many adaptations and changed them indiscriminately, and in the end he made no one happy.

In that case, Zhu Youxing felt that he only considered pleasing the players, unless he could have a truly top-notch screenwriter and director to give him a sufficiently eye-catching work, Zhu Youxing might consider making a slight concession.

Upon hearing that there were licenses for Assassin's Creed and Metal Gear, Tukarev immediately beamed with joy.

"No problem! So what can be adapted from the two works of Assassin's Creed and Metal Gear? Is it a TV series?"

"You can think about this yourself, and I won't interfere too much, and what I hope is not to ruin the reputation of the players."

"Absolutely no problem!" Tukarev said, patting his chest.

Tukarev has begun to paint a big picture in his mind.

"Oh, by the way, I suddenly have another idea that should be good, but I don't know if you are interested."

When Tukarev mentioned the authorized IP, Zhu Youxing suddenly remembered a film and television work in his previous life that was quite historical.

This work can be said to be a collection of the strengths of hundreds of schools. An old man in his seventies skillfully uses the elements that young people like most to create a world view and story content that young people yearn for.

At this moment, Zhu Youxing felt that this seemed to be a bit of a trick.

"What do you think."

"About this idea, it's actually very simple, it's IP chaos."

"IP Brawl?"

Zhu Youxing smiled: "As you said, I own an IP gold mine, but it is indeed a pity not to mine it blindly, but sometimes I worry that if the mining method is inappropriate, it will cause me The dissatisfaction and distrust of the core player group, but IP authorization can not only be used for a single IP adaptation, IP authorization can also do some more interesting things.”

"What exactly is that?"

"I want to call it 'Top Player'. As the name suggests, it is the top existence among video game players, and such players will compete for something in countless familiar video games. In movies, they can appear Countless video game elements."

Tukarev blinked, he actually still didn't understand what was going on, but... it seemed to be ignited, what happened?
