Huayu: Starting from "The Heavenly Bodyguard"
Chapter 38 A Courtyard House is a Must
When it comes to buying a house, you have to find a social butterfly like Huang Xiaoming.
With a wide network of contacts, one has many avenues to explore.
One phone call was made, and there was a response in less than half a day.
Shen Mo, accompanied by his two henchmen, went directly to look at houses, and during the trip, the news leaked out.
Liu Yifei rushed over in a flurry of activity, and as soon as he arrived, he found Zhang Tianai and Jing Tian were both there.
The little girl snorted and started whispering to Yanzi and Yang Tianzhen. She was shocked to hear that the copyright of "John Wick" had been sold for more than 60 million.
His eyes darted around, and he called Zhang Tian'ai and Jing Tian over as well, seemingly plotting something.
The house is a courtyard house, a four-section house, with the walls built on the eaves of the Forbidden City.
The location and layout are all fine; the only drawback is that it has been uninhabited for a long time and is somewhat abandoned.
The homeowner was a refined middle-aged man, whose ancestors must have been wealthy.
Shen Mo strolled around the house, becoming more and more satisfied and fond of it with each look.
The homeowner is in a hurry to leave the country and is asking for 50 million.
Hearing the price, Shen Mo clicked his tongue, but secretly calculated in his mind that even a billion dollars wouldn't be enough to buy this house later.
Several women were shouting and making a ruckus in the courtyard, constantly planning how to renovate the back of the building.
Seeing this, Shen Mo felt that if he didn't buy it, he wouldn't be able to leave today.
I feel like these women are deliberately trying to get him to spend his money quickly.
They readily signed the contract with the homeowner, leaving the handover and renovation to Yang Tianzhen and Yanzi.
The more than 60 million that I just got my hands on was almost gone in the blink of an eye.
But the thought of living within the first ring road in the future made Shen Mo feel very happy.
......
The 1.1 million yuan ice sculpture was smashed, and the scene erupted in cheers.
Shen Mo, Han Sanping, and Lu Zheng discussed it and decided to each contribute one million yuan to give red envelopes to the entire crew.
The entire crew erupted in cheers.
Shen Mo would never tell anyone about the copyright issue, but he certainly couldn't hide it from Han Sanping.
Patting Shen Mo on the shoulder, the old man said cheerfully, "You've struck it rich, kid."
Sitting in his position, he certainly doesn't care how much money Shen Mo makes; what he values more is the influence of domestic films.
Kung Fu films used to be the most popular Chinese-language films internationally, but now they've fallen far behind.
Suddenly, Shen Mo appeared. Han Sanping really hoped that he could take over from Cheng Long and Li Lianjie and make a name for himself internationally.
Lu Zheng chatted excitedly with Shen Mo, having made money from his first film investment, which was a novel experience for him.
He invests in movies for only one purpose: to promote Jing Tian.
Unexpectedly, the film "John Wick" made Jing Tian the youngest female lead in a film with a budget exceeding 100 million yuan in China.
How could he not be overjoyed?
Lu Zheng now has only one thought in his mind: that Shen Mo should quickly make another movie, and still play the female lead, Jing Tian.
As for whether Shen Mo is willing or not, I'm just rich.
Wang Jinghua also led Zhang Tianai to toast Shen Mo, followed by Wu Kebo from Chengtian Entertainment and the popular Chen Hao.
Don't think Shen Daniu doesn't know why he was dumped; he's writing it down in his little notebook.
However, since Zhang Tianai was in someone else's hands, she couldn't go too far.
As for what Zhang Tianai thinks, it's like, "Shen Mo, say whatever you want, but don't stop me from coming home to visit often. If you get angry, I'll cry, and then I'll come back."
Holding his wine glass, he insincerely clinked glasses with Wang Jinghua.
"Is Yang Tianzhen doing well at your company? He's one of my most valued subordinates."
As soon as Wang Jinghua arrived, she brought up Erpang's matter to implicate herself.
Shen Mo smiled and said, "It's fine here with me."
After speaking, Wu Kebo and Chen Hao, who had followed, clinked glasses.
Wearing a bespoke suit, he looked at the spirited Wu Kebo and said directly, "Shen Mo, 'John Wick' is very good. I have high hopes for you and hope we can have the opportunity to collaborate."
Hearing this guy's smug tone, Shen Mo felt quite disgusted.
But there's nothing we can do; they're currently working with the top agent in mainland China.
Wu has already begun the plan to acquire Jiahe, and Zou Wenhuai's shares have been sold to Cheng Tian.
Shen Mo was extremely envious of Golden Harvest's copyright.
"I hope we'll have the opportunity to collaborate."
The two whispered in each other's ears for a while, giving outsiders the impression of being close brothers.
But only he knows the sour and rotten thoughts behind it all.
With a helpless gesture, Shen Mo pointed to Cheng Long, who was walking over, and said, "I have something to talk to my brother about. Let's talk later."
Shen Mo gave him face, and Wu Kebo smiled and waved.
After Shen Mo left, Chen Hao asked in a low voice, "Why were you so polite to that kid?"
"Jackie Chan and Jet Li are getting old, but I feel this kid can make it big."
He glanced at Wu Kebo with surprise, then fell silent.
Shen Mo jogged towards Cheng Long.
The two hugged, and Shen Mo said sincerely, "Thank you, big brother, for helping me promote the movie and for coming to the celebration party."
Jackie Chan chuckled and said, "Your box office is higher than mine now."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Cheng Long gave Shen Mo a detailed explanation of the film distribution situation in the United States, and also advised Shen Mo to pay close attention to the revenue from videotapes when selling the copyrights.
He was a senior figure, and Shen Mo benefited greatly from his experience.
Standing to the side, Liu Xiaoli restrained the eager Liu Yifei and smiled politely at Shen Mo.
Now that Shen Mo has become famous, she is very happy.
However, she still strongly disagreed with her daughter's relationship with him.
What is Shen Danu'er's reputation?
How many women have he been flirting with?
The celebration banquet left Shen Mo feeling utterly exhausted.
It's alright with my own acquaintances, but the bosses of those film companies are all incredibly difficult to deal with.
Wu Kebo, who was always entertaining, and the two kings of Huayi, as well as Shen Mo, were all fooled.
Han Sanye brought Wang Changtian, and Shen Mo exchanged a few more pleasantries with him.
Aside from these people and congratulations, only Zhang Yimou advised Shen Mo that he should go to school while he was still young, as unorthodox methods would not lead to long-term success.
Hearing this, Shen Mo was actually a little tempted, but since his rebirth, he had been constantly on the move.
I have neither connections nor money.
Now that I'm working in this field, it would be great if I had the opportunity to learn it systematically.
Zhang Yimou also saw through Shen Mo's thoughts and said that when he returned from abroad, he would introduce his old classmates from the Beijing Film Academy to Shen Mo.
After the celebration banquet, Shen Mo first went back to his hometown.
The house has long since been replaced by a large brick house, and the entire courtyard is spacious and bright.
Shen Mo wanted the elderly couple to come to the capital with him, but they refused without even thinking about it.
The elderly couple couldn't get used to living in an apartment building in the county town, let alone in Beijing.
Shen Mo couldn't be persuaded either. After being a baby at home for two days, he was chased away by his mother with a broom handle.
Shen Daniu was heartbroken and could only slink away to the Ugly Country.
......
This is Shen Mo's first time filming abroad, and he still has plenty of money.
Naturally, the preparations were exceptionally thorough.
Upon arriving at the film set, he took out the Guan Gong statue from his suitcase.
They solemnly found the best spot in the photography studio and arranged Guan Yu in the best position.
Shen Mo never does these things when he's in the country.
But once they're abroad, foreigners have to die.
Shen Mo had originally thought that he might have to use some drastic measures to make these foreigners submit.
But I never expected these foreigners to be so damn easy to fool.
Knowing that worshipping Lord Guan could bring peace and safety, everyone immediately came over to kowtow devoutly.
Later, Shen Mo felt out of place and appeared unreliable.
Rubbing his chin, Shen Mo asked Nolan, "These people..."
Having just finished offering incense, Nolan said with a touch of British superiority:
"That's just how Americans are, they're so stupid."
Staring at the still-rising smoke, Shen Mo felt that they were truly a family of the same lineage.
