Rebirth begins with a manga adaptation.

Chapter 427 Development
In fact, as long as the funds are in place for making movies and TV series, everything else is easy to talk about.

Jing Yu's book funds are sufficient now, and his reputation is there. Evangelion is not worried about finding actors, but just worrying about finding suitable actors.

In comparison, for characters like Rei Ayanami and Rika Sorume, Jing Yu can say that he searched all over the film and television drama industry and couldn't find an actor with the same temperament as in the original work.

The biggest difference between two-dimensional animation works and live-action film and television dramas is that animation works leave a lot of space for the audience to imagine. Although the characters are indeed portrayed, most of the audience will automatically reprocess these characters, so it can be said that those Well-known beautiful girl characters have their own filters in the eyes of Two-dimensional audiences.

But after it is made into a live-action version, it will be difficult for the audience to process the characters in their minds for these actors with specific images.

So that's why it's so embarrassing for a real person to change a work, there's no way!
The image processed in the minds of fans of the original work is too different from the characters selected by the director. It is difficult for the audience to convince themselves that the so-and-so on the screen is the so-and-so in his mind.

The same is true for the two characters of Rei Ayanami and Asuka. Their arrogant and three-no attributes are very cute in anime, but in film and television dramas, they will definitely feel weird when they are performed by real people.

Fortunately, Jing Yu has filter props, as long as the selected actors have enough acting skills, the rest rely on technology to improve the audience's impression of the characters.

That's why he made such a decisive decision to let Yu Youqing and Xia Yining play the roles of the two heroines.

As for Ikari Shinji's choice, there is nothing to say, the protagonist, of course I will play it myself.

And to be honest, the role of Ikari Shinji has a lot of spray points. Compared with Soru Asuka and Ayanami Rei who are liked by others, this kind of submissive and indecisive male protagonist is very annoying.

If Jing Yu respected the original work and found an ordinary person to play this role, then this role would definitely be so f*ckingly unrecognizable by the audience.

But Jing Yu himself participated in the performance.
To be honest, the three views of the audience follow the appearance.

An autistic, submissive and beautiful boy, everyone will feel that the world has failed him
But a young man with autism who lives in a fat house, everyone will think he is a perverted reserve.

This is not well understood in anime, but film and television dramas will magnify these emotions of the audience.

Jing Yu didn't think much about the choice of the protagonist trio, what he was worried about was the candidates for the other roles.

Ikogendo, Katsuragi Misato, and Nagisa Kaoru, a beautiful boy who likes the hero Shinji Ikari.
To be honest, many of the plots of Evangelion are really advanced, maybe the classics are like this, even if time goes by, its plots and plots will never be outdated.

Jing Yu did not reveal the content of Evangelion to the media, but in Dazhou's film and television drama circle
"Hey, have you heard? Jing Yu's new work, a robot fighting drama that was very popular on the Internet before, seems to be recruiting actors now?"

"Of course I heard about it! There are a total of more than 20 auditions for roles. I heard that many first-line stars are already preparing to deliver their information to Blue Star Culture Company."

"Are first-line stars like this too? I heard from my friends in Shanghai that this drama has confirmed the three major roles of hero and heroine, or are Jing Yu and two of its actors Xia Yining and Yu Youqing participating? Those people are good at supporting roles. Accepted?"

"That's not it? It's not like you don't know the situation of the film and television drama industry in Dazhou. Being a supporting role in Jingyu's crew is much more popular than being a leading role in the six major TV stations. Look at Li Xianwen, who participated in Vision last season The TV station's main drama hero, what will happen in the end? In the last quarter's weekly male star popularity list, he lost consecutively to Gilgamesh, Emiya Kiritsugu, Iskandar, Diarmuid, and Webber. Role. Among the top [-] actors and actresses in the last quarter, out of a total of [-] spots, Destiny Zero occupied [-] spots, and even Hassan, the assassin who didn't show his face, was also on the list. No. [-] on the quarterly popularity list."

"Indeed. Being the lead actor in a drama is just a nice way of saying it, but popularity is the real deal. It is true that the popularity of supporting roles in Jingyu dramas often increases faster than that of the protagonists in some dramas."

"Anyway, because of the high popularity of Iskandar's actor, this season's salary has increased by 600 million. This is the real income, and the other false names are meaningless."

"Right now, Jing Yu is the most sought-after person in the TV drama industry of Dazhou. Everyone knows that as long as he enters his crew, he is famous! It's a pity that this person's desire to perform is too strong, and there are very few works. Make room for the protagonist."

"That's not for sure? If it were me, there are so many excellent characters who can leave their footprints in the history of the TV drama industry, and I want to play them myself! What are you doing for others?"

"That's right!"

"Now Blue Star Film and Television Company is recruiting a large number of audition videos throughout the week. Anyway, I am going to participate, and I might be selected."

In the film and television drama industry, a large group of actors have also become active.

Jing Yu's star-making ability is obvious to all, even if he can play a supporting role in Jing Yu's drama, he might be able to become famous all over the world in an unimaginable way.

So although the most popular film and television dramas in Dazhou are the winner is justice and Natsume's Book of Friends, secretly
The title of Evangelion, however, quickly became popular in the industry.

It's late April
The winner is the fourth episode of Justice.

The content of this episode is the lawsuit between Gu Meimen and lawyer Miki for the residents' right to sunshine.

The audience is now also accustomed to the narrative mode of the work of the winner is justice.

One case per episode
Of course, the quality of these episodes ranges from high to low.

For example, this episode, relatively speaking, is not as exciting as the first three episodes, after all, there is such a thing as the right to sunshine.
It doesn't resonate well enough for the audience of the big week, but the ratings of this episode are still as high as 8.55%
After all, the human rights lawyer was betrayed by the name he defended and lost the case, which is still exciting.

Basically, from the third episode, the winner is justice's ratings increase began to slow down, but they were all over 8%
If it can be stabilized, it will basically lock in the first place in the ratings of Da Zhou this quarter.

But Natsume's account of friends is completely different.
If the popularity increase of the winner is justice is relatively stable, then Natsume's Book of Friends is the complete opposite.

After its third episode was broadcast, this work once again ushered in a wave of audience growth.
