Chapter three hundred and eighty third foreshadowing
Zhang Du looked away from the fan group.
I looked at the opening theme of Fate Zero on the TV station.
Of course, I still don’t understand what the opening theme is about, but...
"The special effects are really good!" Zhang Du sighed.
It’s not that Dazhou doesn’t have good special effects companies, but it lacks a film and television screenwriter with such high profitability like Jing Yu.
Many investors know that adding more money can improve the quality of the work, but they have to consider the profitability of the work. This has also created a situation in the TV drama industry of Da Zhou, such as Destiny Zero, which is only a little over 200 million yuan.
The special effects... to the current audience, I give it a hundred thumbs up.
But in fact, although Fate Zero is a great work, the early plot is indeed long enough.
After the opening song ended, Zhang Du concentrated hard, thinking that the drama would have some exciting plots at the beginning.
But what he didn't expect was...
The beautiful picture as imagined, the fighting scene did not appear...
Instead, he began a rather long character introduction.
In the cold winter, between the mature and indifferent man Emiya Kiritsugu and his gentle and beautiful wife Irisviel von Einzbern, a lovely daughter was born...Yinri Asviel von Einzbern...
Zbelen.
The scene is dark, and a sad atmosphere is revealed from the picture.
"Ellie...I...will send you to death in the future."
"I know, this is the Einzbern family's long-cherished wish..."
The voices of both men and women are gentle....but the topics discussed are heavy.
Especially for the characterization of Emiya Kiritsugu...
Zhang Du felt that this guy... seemed to be weighed down by something and couldn't breathe.
"Is there anything, ideal, long-cherished wish, that needs to be sacrificed with the life of one's wife?"
Zhang Du said it was difficult to accept it, but he continued to read.
Then...the scene immediately shifted to the church in Fuyuki City in the next second.
Tokitatsu Tosaka and Rimasa Kotomine were in the process of lobbying Kirei Kotomine to join Tokitatsu Tosaka's camp, but the classic two-person turn was perfectly presented.
Through the words of the two people, the audience knows what the Holy Grail War is.
Every once in a while, the Holy Grail will select seven people to participate in the war. These seven people can summon actual historical heroes from the long history or human beliefs, or characters who only exist in beliefs to appear and help these seven people.
People fight to capture the Holy Grail... and their wishes come true.
Of course, the purpose of the conversation between Tokiomi Tosaka and Kirei Kotomine was to hope that Kirei Kotomine would join his camp...
After all, even though it was a seven-man war, no one said they couldn't form an alliance.
mean.....
Zhang Du instantly expressed his disdain for Kirei Kotomine and Tokitatsu Tosaka.
Only cowards make alliances, brave men are all in a row...
But... that Tokiomi, with a proud expression on his face, must have knelt down as soon as the war started.
The one named Kotomine Kirei feels quite calm and more powerful than the one named Tokiomi.
Just when Zhang Du was already very interested in the plot...
The camera switches again...
The meeting between Matou Yogan and Tohsaka Aoi...
What kind of background does Mr. Jing Yu have! Even if it’s an alternate world, there’s no need to name it so hard to remember!
Tosaka Toki, Matou Yogan, Tosaka Aoi...and Emiya Kiritsugu...
The opening is less than ten minutes, but there are so many plots and characters.
And this Matou Yogan...
Is it kidney deficiency? Why do people look so sick...
Of course, in this plot, the young Tosaka Rin and the young Matou Sakura are mentioned and appear, but they don't have many scenes.
In this plot, the audience can see Kariya's admiration for Tohsaka Aoi at a glance, and in order to save his beloved woman, Matou, the youngest daughter of Aoi Tosaka, who was adopted from the Tosaka family to his own Matou family
Sakura... agreed to participate in the Holy Grail War, which made Zhang Du feel uncomfortable...
Is this...another infatuated licker?
After the plot of Matou Zouken that appears later...
Zhang Du already felt that his brain was not working hard enough.
The fifteen-minute plot...maybe more than ten or twenty people appeared...
Would a screenwriter as good as Mr. Jing Yu make such a mistake? There are a lot of plots and characters at the beginning, who can understand it? Isn't it bad to tell the story and set the stage at the same time?
This is the problem with the viewing order of the fate series.
If you have watched the plot of Fate Stay Night, watching Fate Zero will not be so difficult, but when you first come into contact with Fate Zero, you will definitely be confused by these settings.
But there is no way around this. The plot of this drama is very tight, and there is no time to explain these setting plots to the audience later. Of course, Jing Yu also took into account the audience's viewing experience... so...
Only then will there be a video website version!
If you can’t understand it, you can go to the video website to buy the expanded version of the Fate Zero series.
At the end of each episode, there will be plot background analysis content shot by Jing Yu to help the audience understand the show. But in fact, even if you don't do this, you will slowly understand these contents after watching a few episodes.
Of course, some unnecessary plots were also appropriately deleted, such as Matou Zōyan’s imprinting insect experiment on Matou Sakura.
There are not many scenes of Sakura in the plot of Fate Zero. It was just mentioned in words and not filmed on the screen. Otherwise, a little girl of several years old spending all day in the insect nest would probably scare away many viewers.
.
Zhang Du is considered a smarter person, and he straightened out the plot in front of him.
There are four main characters appearing now, Emiya Kiritsugu, Kotomine Kirei, Tokiomi Tosaka, and... Matou Yogan.
Among them, Emiya Kiritsugu seems to be a lone wolf, Kotomine Kirei and Tokiomi Tokiomi are allies, Matou Yogan is always keeping an eye on Tokiomi Tokiomi's wife, Tokiomi Tokiomi, and has the intentions of the Minotaur Tokiomi.
He also tried to save Tohsaka Tokiomi's daughter Matou Sakura from his father Matou Zouken...
This relationship... is indeed a bit confusing.
Just when Zhang Du felt that the interpersonal relationship introduction plot of this drama was going to end here...
The fifth master, the plot about Director Ken... appeared.
People in the Lancer camp have always been miserable since ancient times, and Director Ken was one of the few people who made many fate fans of Jing Yu's previous life feel distressed.
"Here we go again...it's so confusing...it's been twenty minutes, why are we still introducing characters!"
"I came to watch the special effects fight, where is Teacher Jing Yu? Why hasn't Teacher Jing Yu shown up yet?"
"Gan, this plot is too slow..."
"Is it necessary to set up for such a long time? Also, why is Emiya Kiritsugu the protagonist? I feel that his role is not much longer than other characters. On the contrary, the character of Matou Yogan is more deeply rooted in my heart."
"I like Tokiomi Tosaka."
"Doesn't anyone like Grandpa Matou Zōyan? He just wants to live forever. What did he do wrong?"
"But to be honest, although I feel that the plot is a bit slow... the setting that is presented now really attracts me."
"Indeed... I feel impatient and impatient. Now everyone is introducing the Master candidates to participate in the Holy Grail War... What about the Servants? The Servants should make their debut soon!"
....
While Director Ken was criticizing a student's paper in the magic class, the character of Princess Weber also appeared...
Weber and Director Ken...were in a teacher-student relationship, but they parted ways because of Director Ken's criticism of Weber's paper.
This is also the reason why Weber stole the express delivery from the Macedonian region addressed to Director Ken....
If he hadn't laughed at his student in class and had the express delivery from Macedonia stolen, then Director Ken might have summoned a servant in this Holy Grail War... Alexander, and there's a high probability that he wouldn't have He would die so miserably.
So far... In the first episode of Fate Zero, six of the seven Masters appeared.
The preliminary preparations for this work are almost completed.
At this point, the plot of the first episode is already halfway through.
At the same time... Destiny Zero's ratings data continue to rise.
If an unknown screenwriter dares to create such a slow plot in the first episode of his new drama, then few viewers will be able to tolerate it, and they will just switch channels to watch other channels' works.
But Jing Yu... is different... the audience has quite a lot of confidence in him.
But the more they stayed at Yunteng TV under the guidance of this emotion and saw these foreshadowing plots, the more anxious the audience became... The patience level was also declining...
Chapter completed!
