Chapter 487 Buy One Get One Free

After hearing this, Leon, who still hadn't come to his senses, became even more confused: "Do we still need to wait for the male protagonist to grow up? Isn't 'Leon' a bit like a character model based on you?"

Thinking about it again, remembering that River is only 20 years old now, Leon suddenly felt that he understood something: "Oh, yes, although 'Leon' was a young rookie police officer when he appeared in the second game, there is still a little age difference between you and him."

No wonder Su Yun put the person on hold for the time being and instead spent more time on finding the leading actress for the first part.

He thought he had made his thoughts clear enough, but Rui Fan, who was assigned the "comfort mission" by Su Yun, was speechless: He didn't expect that even after he had explained it so clearly, this guy still couldn't understand his hints...

After a long silence, River finally denied it sullenly: "No, I am not the candidate for 'Leon' in Mary's mind, so the role she prepared for me is 'Steve Burnside' in the third film."

"Not you?!" Leon was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously met Rui Fan's eyes, which seemed to reflect the appearance of the person sitting opposite him...

Looking at this vague yet familiar appearance, Leon suddenly had a bold idea in his mind: No, that can't be -

He was still a child at the time, so he "bravely" approached Su Yun at the comic convention while Cruise, who was playing the role of Leon in the game, went to the bathroom, and almost "pried the foot of the wall" in front of her, saying that when he had the opportunity to play "Leon" in the future, he wanted Su Yun to be his "Ada"...

"What did you think of?" Rui Fan asked softly after noticing his change in expression.

"Could it be, could it be that the person Mary is waiting for is..." Leon opened his mouth wide. The name that he wrote on the signature sheet every day was already on the tip of his tongue, but he just couldn't say it.

Is he really...that lucky?

Mustering up the courage to ask a question that seemed like a joke many years ago could be the opportunity to change his life?

"Have you heard some news, some people compare me with you, saying that we look a bit similar?" Seeing that he was already on the edge but didn't dare to take another step forward, River added fuel to the fire, "Some game players also said that 'Leon' in the second part and 'Steve' in the third part look a bit similar?"

For those players who have faithfully played the first four games, the explanation for this resemblance is that the original game setting was intended to allow the two main characters "Leon" and "Claire" in the second game to fall in love.

Unexpectedly, in Leon's plot, a mysterious agent, the oriental beauty "Ada Wong" made a stunning appearance and took away the CP power of Leon's plot. As a result, the two main characters of the second game, "Leon" and "Claire", only communicated at the intersection of the plot, without much sparks, and in the end they could only become friends of the opposite sex who had gone through hardships together.

Moreover, after seeing the two characters, the mysterious agent "Ada Wong" who seemed to be based on Su Yun and the rookie police officer Leon, become popular after the second game came out because of the love-hate plot; the love line that was originally intended to be brought back in the third part was also changed to Claire's solo adventure, and a "Steve" who looks a bit like Leon was created to replace Leon's original ending of sacrificing love in the third part...

This rumor, which seems true but not false, has been widely circulated in the "Resident Evil" game circle. The subsequent success of "Resident Evil 4", which starred Leon, also proved that this "plot modification" was indeed worthwhile - whether in terms of sales, character popularity or word of mouth, "Resident Evil 4" is the one that makes people feel that it is the closest to "perfect success" in the history of games.

For this reason, the perception has gradually spread among the player community: popular characters should be kept to make more money, and should not be killed casually!

Seeing that each company is solely responsible for one part after the split, Su Yun and the game company she cooperated with must have made a ton of money!

I just don't know when I can see the live-action movie adaptation that has been announced many times and for a long time. Ever since the reputation, box office and degree of restoration of the comic adaptations directed by Su Yun have been well received, not only comic fans, but also many various book fans or game fans are looking forward to the arrival of Su Yun's adaptation movie again.

Unfortunately, Su Yun is now concentrating on the "Jiuzhou Past" series, and because the shooting requirements of this series are quite high, Su Yun, who was once a "movie fast shooter", has to slow down her pace and it takes almost a year to shoot one.

Of course, some people have pondered the reason why Su Yun has focused on the "Jiuzhou Past" series in recent years: the recent bipolar relationship has obviously become increasingly tense.

Although China once had a close relationship with the big brother in the north, the relationship has become a bit strained due to various reasons. If it goes on for a while, the relationship between the two countries may not only be "stiff" but also "discordant" - in this case, the second part of "Kyushu Past", which has many exterior scenes to be shot in the Soviet Union, may also be greatly affected by the fact that the two countries no longer have a good relationship.

If Su Yun didn't know the direction of history, she would most likely think the same.

But the problem is, she knows clearly that in the near future, the big brother in the north will suddenly fall down...

According to her current estimate of the filming progress, the second part of "Kyushu Past" describes not only the "past" but also the "future".

This is a very critical and important point. If it is handled well, the "Kyushu Past" series will be elevated to an unpredictable position, and like the "Back to the Future" and "Terminator" series, it will once again make a significant contribution to her title of "far-sighted and accurate prophet"...

Although many people in the political circle have speculated about the future which is not too far away, in this era where the channels and speed of information transmission are not enough and fast enough, serious major events sometimes do not spread as fast as entertainment gossip.

While Su Yun was writing the document, he was also planning the direction of the second part of "Kyushu Past" in his mind. On the surface, it seemed calm, but inside, it was full of ups and downs.

If the public relations are done well, the "prophetic movie" "Kyushu Stories 2: Forge Ahead" will be the most anticipated box office bomb and critical bomb in the coming year!

The chaotic thoughts were interrupted by a gentle knock on the door. Su Yun closed the document in her hand and called the person outside to come in: "Come in."

Looking up, he saw Leon, who had brought his good friend Toby with him. It looked like Toby was brought here just to boost his courage, so Su Yun softened her voice a bit: "What's the matter?"

"I, I just wanted to come and apologize to you..." Leon took a deep breath and apologized sincerely, "I was too impatient before, and I misunderstood your good intentions..."

"It's okay, I don't take it to heart." After all, being on the bench for such a long time is really uncomfortable. Putting herself in his shoes, Su Yun can understand why he is so anxious that his IQ drops temporarily, so she really doesn't take it to heart.

However, it is not a good thing for young people to be too impatient, so she did not go out to comfort him directly, but found another young person to explain things to him in a roundabout way.

And Rui Fan completed the "small task" she secretly gave him very quickly and perfectly.

“Although you are my first choice, no one can guarantee that the film will be exactly as expected before it starts shooting, so you need to work harder during this period.” Young people like Leon, who have strong personalities and can easily lose themselves in praise, need to be educated with both carrots and sticks.

Therefore, while Su Yun was accommodating him, he also naturally did not forget to give him some due "admonition".

"I understand!" Leon responded excitedly, and then he repeatedly promised that he would study hard and exercise well, and then he planned to leave the office with his good friend.

"Wait, your friend's name is Toby, right?" Su Yun called the two of them, "Is he also a child star?"

"Yes, he went to the comic convention with me that year. I cosplayed as the Flash and he cosplayed as Spider-Man." Leon knew how to seize fleeting opportunities. He pushed Toby next to him forward, looking like a cocky little boy showing off some great treasure.

As for the calculations in his mind, he had already started to work them out like crazy: Su Yun had previously acted in several DC comic adaptations, and the only character that could rival DC's Batman and Superman in popularity was Marvel's Spider-Man!

And Marvel's recent "business" isn't going very well, so maybe they want to copy their old rival DC and make a live-action movie based on comics to boost popularity and sales of comics...

Compared to him who doesn't know how to appreciate what he has, his good friend Toby's career has been even more bumpy in recent years. If he could take advantage of this opportunity to catch the big ship of Marie Sue's comics being adapted into a live-action movie, he would be able to successfully change his destiny like him!

Seeing the stars in the eyes of these two teenagers seem to be about to fall out, Su Yun smiled and shook her head: "I do have a teenage role here, and I want to give it to Toby..."

That’s right, Spider-Man is portrayed as a teenager most of the time in comics!

"Also, this role is quite difficult to interpret, as it involves a lot of action scenes..."

Okay, Spider-Man, there must be a lot of action scenes involving climbing walls and flying over rooftops!

The two young men were so excited that they could hardly control themselves. They leaned against each other, took the documents handed to them by Su Yun, opened them, and their smiles froze on their faces immediately.

This was not the movie "Spider-Man" that they had been looking forward to, but a TV series with a rather strange name "Five Tigers of the City".
