Chapter 29: Advertising in the Yin House?
Chapter 29: Advertising in the Yin House? (Please read it later)
The third uncle my father mentioned is also a strange man. He is a real Taoist priest with Taoist status.
He is quite famous locally and is usually responsible for the feng shui of various tombs.
"It seems that you have really changed. You are actually interested in this kind of thing." Dad said with a look of great relief.
"Dad, can you tell me what's going on?" Chen Mo asked curiously.
In fact, when Chen Mo was filming online movies in his previous life, he had come into contact with these things a lot. Of course, after all, it was related to the popular movie genres on the Internet.
In the past, the most unavoidable online movies were zombie movies and tomb-raiding adventure movies, and these two categories were closely related to burial customs.
"A fellow villager from Hong Kong Island came back. The land where his ancestral tomb was located was going to be developed, so the tomb had to be moved. He came to us and wanted us to find a good Feng Shui location. Your third uncle recommended the Dragonfly Dianshui Cave of our company to him, but he thought the price was too high and we couldn't reach an agreement," said Dad.
"Dragonfly touching the water point?" Chen Mo was stunned for a moment.
He is really familiar with this!
"Is it the dragonfly-diving hole in "Mr. Vampire"? " Chen Mo asked again.
"What Mr. Zombie? Don't talk nonsense. I've never heard of it. How come you also know this Dragonfly Touching Water Point?" The old man was stunned for a moment, then frowned, looked at Chen Mo in surprise and asked.
"You know, the location of the cemetery should be in a wider place. Secondly, there must be a water source, preferably from ground water. For example, this piece of land used to be a pond or a ditch, and it was later filled up, but there is still groundwater bubbling up. Or you can build a water hole in front of the cemetery and keep water in the hole at all times. This meets the conditions of 'dragonfly touching the water'." Chen Mo blurted out without thinking.
"Not bad, you actually know it. What else? Go on." Dad looked at Chen Mo with some surprise.
"Does this kind of grave still need to be buried in the traditional way, that is, the coffin should be placed upright, and the top should be covered with snowflakes instead of being sealed with cement? Is that right?" Chen Mo said again.
"Yes, all of them are right. Where did you learn all this? And what is this Mr. Zombie you mentioned?" Dad really had a new respect for Chen Mo, but he was also quite curious about where Chen Mo learned it from.
Chen Mo didn't find it strange that his father didn't know about "Mr. Vampire". He picked up his phone, opened the browser and started searching.
But the next moment, he was a little surprised because he couldn't find it at all.
"Strange?" Chen Mo was a little surprised, because there really wasn't one.
He searched for Uncle Ying's name again, and this time he found it. However, what surprised him even more was that Uncle Ying in this world did not die young. He was still alive and well, but he didn't seem to be as famous as in his previous life.
Nor has he made any famous zombie movie series.
Not only did he not make one, Chen Mo also searched on Baidu for several other more famous zombie movies, but there were none, none at all.
He didn't know where the world had gone astray, but the famous zombie movies from Hong Kong's golden age of cinema were gone.
But then he felt relieved. After all, this world was not the original world. Although there was not much difference overall, some differences were normal.
The next moment, Chen Mo's face lit up with joy. He was just worrying about what film to make next, so wasn't this the best choice? It was also the type he was best at, the one he was most adept at.
In his previous life, he made seven or eight online movies modeled after "Mr. Vampire".
Seeing the expression on his son's face constantly changing, the father asked with concern: "Son, are you okay?" "Oh, it's okay, Dad. How much do we ask for this dragonfly dipping into the water hole?" Chen Mo asked curiously.
"The Dragonfly Dianshui Cave is right on the hillside of our Panshan Tomb. Your third uncle spent a lot of effort to transform it into the best Feng Shui site. The price is certainly not low. The asking price is 1.66 million." Chen Shouxin said.
"Tsk tsk." Chen Mo couldn't help but be a little surprised. He didn't expect the price to be so high.
Remember, this was only 2010! At this price, he could buy three apartments in his hometown, so it's no wonder people think the price is too high.
"Dad, does our company have many such small businesses?" Chen Mo asked again.
"What are you talking about? Where can there be so many Feng Shui treasure lands like this? If it were so easy to find, the price wouldn't be so high." Dad glared at Chen Mo unhappily.
"No, what I mean is, can this kind of dragonfly-like water hole be created artificially? The conditions don't have to be so strict, just about right will do." Chen Mo asked unwillingly.
"That's possible. The conditions for the Dragonfly Dotting Water Cave are actually not as harsh as other Feng Shui treasures. If the requirements are relaxed, it can indeed be built artificially. Although it may not be as good as the perfect Dragonfly Dotting Water Cave, it is definitely a rare and excellent tomb. But what's the point of building it if it can't be sold? Isn't it a waste of effort?" Dad didn't quite understand what Chen Mo was trying to do.
Chen Mo chuckled. Of course he had his own thoughts when he said that.
"Dad, it's not easy to advertise a cemetery, right?" Chen Mo asked again.
"Of course it's not for living people to live in." Dad said helplessly.
"What if I can help advertise this Dragonfly Water Hole? How much advertising fee can my family afford?" Chen Mo said with a grin.
"Don't do anything stupid. What kind of advertising can you put up for a grave? And how much advertising fee do you want to pay?" Dad said quickly.
"We're making a movie. Do you understand product placement?" Chen Mo revealed the answer.
"Product placement? Of course I know. Do you think your dad is an old-fashioned guy? But making a movie? It seems not possible. Aren't these kinds of things not allowed to be broadcast?" Dad asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"It can't be shown in theaters, but there's no problem broadcasting it on the Internet. I plan to make a more special movie and broadcast it on the Internet. It will include the plot of the Feng Shui treasure land, the Dragonfly Dian Shui Cave. You see, isn't this equivalent to product placement?" Chen Mo said with a smile.
"Play movies on the Internet?" Dad was a little confused. This touched upon his blind spot.
"Yes, the Internet speed is getting faster and faster now. You can watch TV series and movies on the Internet. So it's normal for me to make a movie that is only broadcast on the Internet, right?" Chen Mo continued.
He doesn't have any moral obsessions. Moreover, only rich people can afford such Feng Shui treasure land and sky-high priced luxury houses. He doesn't have any psychological pressure. Besides, he is not a liar. Although he doesn't understand Feng Shui and divination, and it's not a matter of whether he believes in it or not, it doesn't prevent some people from believing in it.
Make money, not shabby.
"Will this work? If you are short of money, just tell me directly, don't do these unnecessary things." Dad obviously still felt that it was not very reliable.
"I'm really not short of money. You should know how popular the dramas I starred in are. I just want to help you, old man. Besides, I don't want to let outsiders know what's good for me. If you're not interested, you can help me find other colleagues in the same field and see if they are interested." Chen Mo suddenly thought of something else. This thing really has great potential.
Even if my father is not interested, wouldn't people doing this kind of business in other places be interested?
Wow, I didn’t know it until I heard it, and it’s really shocking. If this really works, then "Mr. Vampire" will have great potential.
