Chapter 41 I, Chen Mo, never forget my original intention
Chapter 41 I, Chen Mo, never forget my original intention
Speaking of the novel "Love Is Not Blind", the background of its creation is very interesting. The background of "Love Is Not Blind" is that a heartbroken woman recorded her experience of heartbreak on a certain website, and these words aroused widespread resonance.
Initially, "Love Is Not Blind" appeared in the form of an online post written by a heartbroken woman (Bao Jingjing) who was good at writing. She recorded her heartbreak experience and feelings every day and shared them with others.
The post, titled "Novel or Guide," quickly attracted a large number of followers. These readers viewed her words as a guide to love, and some even hoped to have their own stories and names added to the novel. Due to its immense influence, the post almost became one of the most eye-catching live broadcasts in the history of Douban.
Teng Huatao was surprised because although Love Is Not Blind is quite famous on the Internet, it is actually a rather strange novel.
And it is relatively female-oriented novel.
Although heartbreak has nothing to do with gender, in this novel, the people who usually get more attention are actually mostly women.
Teng Huatao became aware of this novel, or rather this diary of a broken heart, when a white-collar friend told him about it.
In fact, I have been following the novel "Love Is Not Blind" for a while. The more I read it, the more I feel that the theme of "broken love" is very promising and it will definitely be a big market if it is filmed.
It’s just a pity that on the one hand he is busy filming, and on the other hand he is short of money. He is different from Chen Mo.
Although he has directed many TV series, he has always been just a director who gets paid for his work, unlike Chen Mo, who is not only a director but also invests his own money.
When he was ready and contacted Bao Jingjing, he found out that the novel had already been bought by someone.
That's why he asked Bao Jingjing to help contact Chen Mo through his connections. Before that, he had actually talked a lot with Bao Jingjing and got Bao Jingjing's approval. Unfortunately, even if Bao Jingjing approved it, it was useless because the adaptation rights had already been sold.
Teng Huatao refused to give up, so this meeting took place.
Teng Huatao was a bit surprised by Chen Mo's blunt refusal. After all, in his opinion, Chen Mo, an actor, suddenly filmed a TV series, and only one TV series at that. The length of "Love Is Not Blind" was simply not enough for a TV series! The only option was a movie, but Chen Mo was a director of idol dramas, and he had only directed one. Although "Meteor Shower" was quite successful, movies and TV series were completely different things.
Even for him, with his father's connections, it was not easy to shoot "Love Is Not Blind", let alone Chen Mo.
So Teng Huatao was a little surprised by Chen Mo's direct refusal.
But he definitely won't give up.
“Director Chen, I really like the novel Love Is Not Blind, and I’ve been studying it a lot during this period. I have a lot of ideas and insights. I think the theme of love is something that will resonate with people of all ages.” Teng Huatao had obviously made a lot of preparations before coming here. He talked a lot about his thoughts and feelings about the novel Love Is Not Blind, as well as how it would perform if the novel were adapted into a movie.
He didn't say anything about the difference between making movies and TV series, but simply expressed his thoughts.
It’s just a pity that Chen Mo was not moved at all.
Chen Mo was too lazy to say more and interrupted directly: "Director Teng, I can tell that you have really put a lot of effort into this work. Let me be frank. To be honest, if it were someone else, I might consider it, but Director Teng, please don't say any more. I will not agree."
Chen Mo’s words made Teng Huatao stunned!
"Director Chen, why? There is no grudge between us, right? Why can't it happen to me?" Teng Huatao asked in surprise.
He has high hopes for the work "Love Is Not Blind". As a director who graduated from the Beijing Film Academy, he has always hoped to make movies rather than TV series.
Or maybe this is a common problem among many Beijing Film Academy directors, who are obsessed with movies.
For some reason, he had a special feeling for this work, so he didn't give up even after knowing that the adaptation rights of this work had been bought by someone else.
But Chen Mo's words made him completely dumbfounded. He didn't understand why.
"Director Teng, have you read the news about me?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.
"Hmm?" Teng Huatao still didn't quite understand, but nodded anyway.
"Then I want to ask, Director Teng has done so much research on "Love Is Not Blind", does he already have a candidate for the male lead in mind?" Chen Mo asked again.
"Coat of arms!" Teng Huatao nodded, then suddenly understood.
"You see, this is where the problem lies, Director Teng. I have no opinion about you, but you also know that I can't use someone who has wronged me and taken advantage of me in my play, right? So, Director Teng, let's just leave it at that, okay?" The reason why Chen Mo said so much was purely to make things difficult for Wen Zhang. Yes, he was so petty.
Teng Huatao understood, completely understood, and then he smiled bitterly, but for some reason, he had a strange feeling that this movie had a special meaning to him. This was not his first time making a movie, he had made movies before.
But no other play had ever made him feel this way. He had an intuition that this play was very important to him!
Therefore, he couldn't help but blame the emblem in his heart. He really didn't expect that the problem would lie here.
Chen Mo had said this, and no matter how strong the feeling in his heart was, he had to give up.
Why did Chen Mo want to meet Teng Huatao? Honestly, he had more projects to shoot than just Love Is Not Blind. If it was someone else, he wouldn't mind having them work for him. But who made him Teng Huatao?
To some extent, he can be said to be one of the mentors of heraldry. Many of the dramas he filmed have heraldry as the male protagonist.
Although Humiliation, an old friend of the Stab-Stabbing Cult, was not as loud as the Cult leader at the beginning, he was also the one who had retaliated against him. Although in the last "first case of online defamation", he was actually wealthy enough to take out the "sky-high" settlement money proposed by Chen Mo's lawyer, it does not mean that the matter is over!
If there was a chance, Chen Mo certainly wouldn't mind giving him a try. It could be said that Chen Mo's interception of this movie that had made him famous in his previous life was originally aimed at him. He, Chen Mo, didn't forget his original intention! Therefore, it was naturally impossible for him to agree to Teng Huatao.
Besides, "Love Is Not Blind" itself is also a very good project. For Chen Mo at the moment, such a low-cost box office dark horse is also the best choice for him to complete another identity leap. So, how could he give it up?
Of course, it doesn't mean that this time the other party will break up with the emblem, but it is conceivable that when "Love Is Not Blind" was released and became a box office dark horse, would he not have a thorn in his heart?
This was enough for Chen Mo. He had to give it a try anyway. Why else would he agree to meet him? Wouldn't it be better to just refuse?
He simply wanted to let Teng Huatao know and give him the illusion that he did not agree with him directing this movie. The biggest reason was because he had a very good relationship with Hui Zhang, and it was because of Hui Zhang that he missed this movie.
Teng Huatao left in disappointment.
Chen Mo didn't pay any more attention to this matter, as it was just a side thing.
Time passed day by day, and the filming of "Mr. Vampire" was nearing its end. One day, Zhao Liying called and said she would come to visit the set.
Chen Mo was quite happy in his heart, and a little expectant. After all, Xiao Zhao was his first woman in this world, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time since the last time, so he missed her a lot.
Well, actually I’m just greedy.
I have to say that after the baptism of "Let's Watch Meteor Shower Together", Xiao Zhao has become more and more fashionable.
Chen Mo couldn't help but nodded the moment he saw her. She was wearing a black and white striped printed waist dress, a ponytail and white sneakers. She looked pure and playful, fashionable but not ostentatious, completely different from her rustic outfit in the past.
"How is it? Not bad, right?" Zhao Liying saw Chen Mo nod, and couldn't help but turn around in front of Chen Mo happily and asked with a smile.
"Well, not bad. This outfit suits you very well. You have really improved! It's very beautiful." Chen Mo nodded and praised generously.
"That's right. I selected them carefully before I came here. I'm glad I didn't disappoint you. I was a little afraid that you would scold me again." Xiao Zhao raised his chin and said.
"How is it? How does it feel to be red?" Chen Mo asked with a smile again.
"Not bad, hehe." Xiao Zhao couldn't help but feel happy when she heard Chen Mo's words. During this period of time, she really tasted the taste of being famous.
Xiao Zhao, who has tasted the sweetness of being famous, now looks much more confident. Well, this is all thanks to me.
The two chatted intimately, talking and laughing, the man was in love and the woman was interested. Xiao Zhao had special feelings for Chen Mo. It could be said that Chen Mo was her true mentor, and her current situation was entirely shaped by Chen Mo. Of course, one thing cannot be ignored, that is, Chen Mo is not only young, but also very handsome, but he has a sharp tongue. However, since the two had an intimate relationship, even this shortcoming has disappeared. It's simply perfect!
Thinking of this, her eyes looked at Chen Mo with almost tears in them.
Everyone in the crew was very tactful and was doing their own thing. No one came over to watch the show.
After all, even if they wanted to eat the director's melons, they could only eat them from afar. Moreover, this was not a big melon. Chen Mo was a director, young and promising, and it was normal for him to have a girlfriend.
But there are exceptions.
Look, the rich girl was happily eating potato chips. Today she discovered a kind of cucumber-flavored potato chips, which were quite delicious. The first thing she thought of was to take them and share them with her "good friend" Chen Mo.
But when she saw Chen Mo and Zhao Liying chatting and laughing intimately, flirting with each other as if no one was around, she suddenly felt that the potato chips were no longer tasty.
Actually, she is not very familiar with Zhao Liying. She only knows that she is the heroine of Chen Mo's previous drama. It's just that the two of them are too close.
She and Chen Mo are not that close, so why do she feel that these cucumber-flavored potato chips are a bit sour for a moment?
"Chen Mo, Chen Mo, come and try it. These cucumber-flavored potato chips are delicious, ah!" The rich woman came over, took out a piece of potato chips, and then got in front of Chen Mo and said, asking Chen Mo to open his mouth.
When Zhao Liying saw it, her eyes narrowed immediately.
This kind of interaction often occurs between Chen Mo and the rich lady, so he subconsciously opens his mouth and the rich lady feeds him potato chips.
It's crunchy and has a cucumber flavor. It's really delicious.
He didn't know why, but the next moment, he felt a chill.
When I turned around, I saw that although Xiao Zhao still had a sweet smile on his face, there was a murderous aura in him.
