From an idea to a sellable series design; series engine / franchise, story pattern, character webs that keep generating conflict, pilot types, and the documents that sell them (剧集引擎/franchise/故事模式/人物网/试播集类型/剧集圣经/跳板/提案). Merged from Rabkin's four-element franchise and story landmines, Landau's tacit contract and pitch recipe, Oberg's series types and bible specs, Douglas's franchise-plus-springboard and bible tiers, Goldberg & Rabkin's 100-episode test, Blum's concept/presentation/bible ladder, Miller's ten-component treatment, Calvisi's Compelling Crisis, Smith's series format, plus engines read off Sopranos, Fleabag and Succession. Use when turning an idea into a series, testing whether a premise has legs, choosing premise vs typical-episode pilot, designing a sustainable character web, writing a logline, pitch document, bible or treatment, picking a series type, adapting IP into a series, or diagnosing a project that feels "more like a movie than a series".

Writing screenplays in the style of Ozu Yasujiro and Noda Kogo (小津安二郎・野田高梧) — distilled from six complete screenplays (晚春 Late Spring, 麦秋 Early Summer, 东京物语 Tokyo Story, 浮草 Floating Weeds, 秋日和 Late Autumn, 秋刀鱼之味 An Autumn Afternoon). Covers the "family member leaves" master plot, off-screen events / on-screen reactions, lie-driven plots, minimal-syllable confessions, go-between characters, faceless suitors, pillow-shot scene breaks, echoing objects, mirror characters, children's subplots as metaphor, displaced quarrels, the single-monologue rule, diminishing endings, Ozu's script format and stage-direction vocabulary. Use when the user wants to write a quiet family drama, a 小津风 / 侘寂 / 日常系 script, a story about marrying off a daughter, aging parents, or wants dialogue that says less and means more.
