Chapter 408: Right here, throw the zombie virus over!
The words of inspiration once again awakened Kevin Feige and Jonathan Hickman. After all, according to the rules of the "real world", they are just ordinary people. They only know how to create works, but how can they know how to create all things?
They used to think that as long as an editor secretly drew something, it could be embodied in the multiverse, allowing characters in the comic universe to run into the movie universe and cause trouble.
Now after listening to Lingxian’s reminder, I suddenly feel that this is exactly what it should be!
Their Marvel multiverse is not a bus that anyone can enter if they want. Without their nod, they cannot get on even if they pay for a ticket!
"You're right, we did ignore this problem before."
Recalling the previous half month of being like a headless fly, Kevin Feige glared at Jonathan Hickman, who was helpless I can only bow my head and say that it was all my negligence.
What can be done?
This is the workplace!
In order to save face and show his self-worth, Jonathan immediately activated his thinking ability and grasped a key point.
"This requires a series of attempts. First, we need to keep in touch with the multiverse, and then find a less important universe as an experimental area. After a few more experiments, we should be able to find the answer."
"That's it. Go for it!" Kevin Feige said: "Start with comics first."
He is a shrewd businessman who knows how to control costs. Although he will get extraordinary powers and even immortality in the future, he has not got it now.
Furthermore, the investment in comics is small, and he does not even need to give orders. Jonathan can make his own decisions. He is only responsible for the final performance review of each department.
For example, which comics will be released in the new year, which ones will sell well and which ones will sell poorly, rewards that should be rewarded, and punishments that should be punished.
If he took care of everything himself, he wouldn't be able to reach the position of president.
Compared to comics, the investment in movies is much greater. Not only is the cost huge, but the time from project establishment to filming, post-production, review, contacting theaters, publicity, etc., must be measured in years.
Kevin Feige has no intention of making the incident known to the whole world. It is best to keep the extraordinary power to yourself!
After Jonathan returned to the editorial office, he immediately convened a meeting with several editors. Wang Yuan, who was the technical backbone, also attended the meeting.
In fact, even if he didn't pull in the clone created by Lin Hao, with the power of Arnim Zola, every move of everyone in the Marvel Building would not escape Lin Hao's eyes.
"I called you here today because I plan to publish a new single-volume comic."
After Jonathan finished speaking, several editors sitting in front who were qualified to create content and signed their names became interested.
All art creation industries need to let their works speak for themselves. Only when their works become popular can they gain popularity. Only with popularity can they bring monetary value and gain both fame and fortune.
Except for those established artists who already have a lot of fame and no energy to complete their creations, who of the new generation does not need the opportunity to express themselves?
Marvel is undoubtedly a large international platform. If you can use this platform to publish a work, even if the effect is not satisfactory, you can improve your status.
All new generation editors cherish this opportunity. After all, Marvel publishes a limited number of single-volume comics every year, and there is competition and need to be screened.
Marvel is not willing to let "ignorant boys" mess with their superheroes at will. Whose responsibility is it if the reputation is ruined?
"Ghostwriting" tool people like Lin Hao's clone are much calmer, and the benefits cannot fall on them.
Only two young assistants who have just arrived are still very ambitious, trying to impress their boss with their talent and determination, but they don't know that their skin color has already determined the height they can reach in the United States.
The old fritters sitting next to Lin Hao all cast a sarcastic look at the young man, as if they were mocking themselves for not knowing how high the sky was before.
Jonathan looked around, taking in everyone's reactions, and raised the corners of his mouth with satisfaction.
Reflecting the privileges brought by status through comparison, isn’t this the most enjoyable part of being a leader?
Without these feelings of superiority, wouldn’t a leader be dull and boring?
"Okay, take it easy!" Jonathan patted the demonstration board next to him and motioned everyone to look at the string of letters and numbers he wrote.
"Earth-2149."
The two young assistants, who were proud of their in-depth knowledge of the Marvel multiverse, reacted immediately.
“This is the Marvel Zombie Universe!”
When they applied for the job, they showed off their knowledge of the Marvel worldview and characters to the interviewer, proving that they had pure blood and were a Qualified "fan".
“The company plans to publish a new single volume, the specific content will revolve around the zombie universe, but the time point will be slightly pushed forward, before the ‘Cuban Missile Crisis’...”
Jonathan began to talk about some of the plot points he had considered, which would be filled in by the editor. After taking out the script and manuscript, they would be handed over to the tool artist for drawing, and then the final issue would be published.
The process is the same as that of previously released comics, except this time they will always maintain contact with eternity to see at which step the corresponding universe will change, thereby determining the method used by the editor to "create all things".
There are several reasons why we chose the zombie universe.
First of all, there are many versions of zombie viruses, and they can be connected to other normal universes, so even if a zombie virus suddenly appears in a certain universe, it will not seem abrupt.
This also provides a reasonable entry point for the plot of the new single-line volume.
Secondly, Zombie Universe already has a certain reputation, so it is reasonable to release a new single volume, which is not too conspicuous and has its own original traffic, so there is no need for publicity.
If the editor's method of "creating all things" really requires a certain response to be effective, then if a comic with a new plot is to be recognized, it will not only take time to ferment, but also require a large amount of publicity resources. .
Kevin Feige and Jonathan Hickman are currently most worried about attracting the attention of Disney and even the American consortium. If they discover their purpose, the dominance of the future and eternal connection can be It won't be their turn.
Think with your toes. After those people gain superpowers, Kevin and Jonathan will gain the same or even greater power than them?
We are cows and horses now, but will we still be cows and horses in the future?
Cheap or not!
They are "real" people, not superheroes influenced by editorial consciousness.
Finally, there is a chance to become the "King of the World" before a fool leaks it.
So when they conduct this experiment, they must be quiet and not attract attention.
They are hyping up a new plot comic and it is easy to say that it is popular, which proves that they have a keen eye for good things. If he fails, he will definitely be taught a lesson by Disney, the big boss, or the secret will be leaked.
There is another important reason. The zombie universe is inherently doomsday. If something goes wrong, the world can be destroyed naturally, without any foreshadowing.
No matter what problems arise during the experiment, a world-destroying ultimate move can directly clear the area, which is efficient and safe.
These two guys are also worried that Yongheng will cause trouble!
The "World-Destroying Ultimate Move" is the trump card they use to check Eternity and remind it who is its creator.
To ensure that the plan continues, to ensure that eternity will eventually come and grant them extraordinary power and immortality.
At this moment, they didn't know that Lin Hao could broadcast their plan live, so after Jonathan finished speaking, Lin Hao's clone's eyes showed a glint.
"I remember that there is a time point in the universe that happened to stay around the 'Cuban Missile Crisis', so choose this place and throw the zombie virus over..."
