Chapter 167

Yang Mi really did listen to Lin Mo's words.

The next day she started scouting female trainee idols.

Moreover, she was very serious about it.

She planned to pick them herself.

Those lacking ability were directly cut.

After all.

Boss Lin said, this show is a sure profit, no loss.

She certainly couldn't miss it.

Well, after hearing this, Re Ba also ran to Jiaxing.

As for Lin Mo,

He had nothing to do at home.

He was just about to play a few rounds of LOL with Chen He.

As a result, the phone suddenly rang.

He picked it up and saw the caller was Jiang Wen Laoge.

"Hey, older brother!" Lin Mo answered the phone.

On the other end, the familiar voice of Jiang Wen Laoge came through: "Younger brother, your company's new show is blowing up!"

"Hi, blind cat met a dead rat—just luck, luck!"

"You, don't pretend in front of your older brother—older brother me knows you inside out~"

"Haha!"

Both of them burst out laughing.

After chatting for a while, Jiang Wen got to the point: "Younger brother, we did film Let the Bullets Fly, right? I suddenly had an idea for a theme..."

Lin Mo froze upon hearing that.

Good fellow!

This plot...

Isn't this the plot of Evil Cannot Overcome Justice?

"Cough cough... Older brother, this theme is quite interesting!" Lin Mo gave a dry cough twice.

"Right, I think it's interesting too. Are you free lately? I'll fly to Mo Du tomorrow to see you; help me brainstorm this script—some parts I feel aren't handled well." Jiang Wen said.

"Sure, no problem—as long as you come over, older brother, I'm free anytime!" Lin Mo readily agreed.

"Alright, it's settled—I'll book the tickets now!"

From the other end of the call, Jiang Wen's excitement was clearly audible.

He,

Since finishing Let the Bullets Fly, he's still been obsessed with the film; recently he suddenly got inspiration, quickly jotted these things down, and well, it's almost ready— that's why he called Lin Mo.

Meanwhile, here,

After hanging up, Lin Mo muttered to himself: "As expected, Jiang Wen Laoge really hasn't forgotten his trilogy!"

Indeed.

Even in a parallel world, Jiang Wen could still create Evil Cannot Overcome Justice.

How to put it, the box office wasn't high.

But there are still some iconic scenes.

For example, the Jiaozi-eating segment.

Who in their right mind keeps a diary?

It is a classic among classics.

The next day.

The 4 p. m. flight.

Lin Mo brought Re Ba to the airport to pick up Jiang Wen Laoge.

Jiang Wen Laoge has come to Mo Du—of course we must entertain him well.

Upon meeting, they shared a warm hug.

Seeing Re Ba, Jiang Wen smiled and greeted: "Sister-in-law, you're getting more and more beautiful!"

"Hello, Jiang Dao!" Re Ba replied with a smile.

Lin Mo pulled Jiang Wen and said: "Old brother, come on, the hotel is all booked; having come to Mo Du, don't rush to leave—stay a while, little brother will treat you well!"

Jiang Wen readily agreed: "Fine, I'll follow your arrangements!"

Having stayed in Mo Du for these years, Lin Mo is fairly familiar with the place.

This film's premiere has been held many times.

He knows which hotels and restaurants are good.

After all, with so many good friends coming, he ought to take care of their food and drink.

In the evening.

Lin Mo and Jiang Wen drank, and they ended up drinking until 12 o'clock.

Every time he drinks with Jiang Wen Laoge, he feels the sentiment "when meeting a kindred spirit, a thousand cups are few."

Jiang Wen feels the same.

No wonder these two will form a Sworn Brotherhood.

As for lodging, Lin Mo has arranged everything—they'll just stay at his home.

After all, the new house he bought, Jiang Wen Laoge still came for the first time.

There are many rooms, so just stay wherever you like.

Just like when Lin Mo went to Yanjing, they basically all stay at Jiang Wen's house.

The next day, at 9:30 a. m.

Jiang Wen had sobered up, sitting in the living room looking at news on his phone.

"Older brother, you're awake this early!"

Lin Mo wasn't surprised to see Jiang Wen up so early.

"I'm getting older, I sleep less, so I wake up early!" Jiang Wen said with a smile.

Re Ba heard the movement and came out too: "Jiang Dao, what would you like to eat this morning? I'll cook!"

"Hey, no trouble, I'll eat whatever you eat, I'm not picky!" Jiang Wen said, waving his hand with a smile.

Re Ba went to make breakfast.

Lin Mo then sat down with Jiang Wen to chat.

Yesterday, the two drank and just chatted randomly, not talking about Jiang Wen's new drama.

Because Jiang Wen Laoge is that kind of person.

He likes to discuss scripts in quieter places, places with a more elegant environment.

Coincidentally, there's a garden behind his villa.

After finishing breakfast.

The two went directly to the garden to sit and chat slowly.

"Older brother, how should I put it... about this subject, this script..."

Lin Mo still wasn't ready to speak up.

On the other hand, Jiang Wen laughed and said: "Younger brother, just say whatever you have directly, I'm listening!"

"Older brother, your cinematic language, I believe you also know, the audience might not understand it much, so if you were to film this play, box office-wise, you might not make money, maybe even lose money..." Lin Mo said truthfully.

He is very clear about that.

In his previous life, of Jiang Wen's Republic of China trilogy, only 'Let the Bullets Fly' made money, the other two seemed to have lost money.

This is not.

Jiang Wen hearing this, burst out laughing: "Younger brother, you understand me; I don't make films to make money, I just want to bring those lines to life!"

Lin Mo also laughed: "Alright, I see now, you made dumplings just for this bit of jealousy!"

Jiang Wen hearing this, clapped his hands: "Exactly, younger brother, that's exactly what I mean! I'll write this line into the movie later!"

The plot of Evil Cannot Overcome Justice, Jiang Wen also only has a rough idea in his mind.

So Jiang Wen specially flew over to find Lin Mo, wanting to see if this younger brother had any good ideas or suggestions.

Ideas, suggestions...

Lin Mo has plenty of them.

He directly told Jiang Wen the essential points of this film.

After all.

As said before, Lin Mo counts as a fan of Jiang Wen.

He has watched all of his Republic of China trilogy.

As for why Lin Mo doesn't film the other two movies, it's purely because they don't make money.

Since Jiang Wen Laoge wants to film it, he could just tell him the essential plot of the original film.

These two days.

They've been discussing the script, and it's been really heated.

As for Auspicious Conduct,

Yang Mi went 'pfft' and laughed: "Well, you're jealous, huh!"

"Sister Mi, you didn't see them, when they start talking about the script they even forget to eat..." Re Ba said, somewhat speechless.

Isn't that right?

Yesterday she cooked, but as a result the two forgot to eat while discussing the script, and in the end the food went cold.

Haha!

Yang Mi burst out laughing.

She also didn't expect Lin Mo to have this side.

"Sister Mi, how's your girl group? Have you recruited all the members?" Re Ba asked curiously.

Yang Mi sighed: "I've only recruited one qualified member!"

Talking about this, Yang Mi also gets a headache.

Huaguo hasn't really focused on training girl groups.

So, those trainees' level is really poor.

She has currently recruited only one, and even that one is from Bangzi Country...

As for why he came back...

It's probably because it's too cutthroat.

The entertainment industry in Bangzi Country is well known.

Jiang Wen stayed in Mo Du for almost a week.

After thoroughly finalizing the script.

He felt completely refreshed and invigorated.

「Bro, you really helped me a lot this time! 」

Jiang Wen held Lin Mo's hand, feeling very grateful.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo laughed and said: 「Older brother, you're overstating it; you've helped me even more! 」

「Haha, let's not talk about that. When my drama starts filming, I'll send you a message then, and you can come check it out! 」

「Okay, no problem! 」
