Chapter 20: Lin Mo discovered gold again!
At this moment.
A middle-aged man in a suit walked over.
Xu Zheng saw him and immediately greeted, "Boss Wang!"
That's right.
He is Wang Zhonglei of Huayi.
Earlier, Xu Zheng and Wang Zhonglei were chatting, and he had already mentioned Lin Mo.
Don't even mention it.
He is quite interested in Lin Mo.
Because, in his view, a mere third-year college student could have the guts to invest in a director that nobody else thought highly of.
That's actually pretty impressive!
At that time, Teng Hua Tao also came to him with a script.
And his reason for not investing was
Just like everyone else.
They all thought Teng Hua Tao lacked ability.
The script for "Love in 33 Days," in his view, was just so-so.
Who would have thought.
After this movie came out, it actually blew up!
"Boss Wang, let me introduce you—this is the Lin Mo I told you about!"
Obviously.
Lin Mo also noticed Wang Zhonglei.
The boss of Huayi Brothers.
He certainly knew.
"Boss Wang!"
"Lin Mo, hello! Finally getting to meet you in person!"
Wang Zhonglei smiled and shook hands with Lin Mo.
Now then.
The surrounding stars became all the more curious about Lin Mo's identity.
Lin Mo and Wang Zhonglei's handshake was actually quite calm.
It wasn't that he needed to say anything; seeing that this person was Huayi's boss, he just wanted to win his favor.
Likewise.
Wang Zhonglei had also just come over to get to know Lin Mo.
The two simply exchanged a few words.
Although Lin Mo's investment this time indeed shocked industry insiders.
But that's about it.
Of course.
If Lin Mo could repeatedly stir up such a big commotion.
I'd guess these people wouldn't be able to stay calm.
As more and more stars came in.
Director Xu and Huang Bo also went over to receive them.
Lin Mo, meanwhile, found a spot to sit down.
As for Yang Mi,
she has her own circle.
And the table Lin Mo chose to sit at has significance.
Today, attending the premiere of "Heart Flower Road," besides showing support for Director Xu and Director Ning,
he also has an important purpose.
Shen Teng!
That's right, he came here for Shen Teng.
In this film, Shen Teng has a role.
But his part is small.
Moreover, in this parallel world.
There isn't even a company called Happy Mahua.
Although Shen Teng's experience is similar to his previous life.
After graduating from the military arts academy as a campus heartthrob, he started acting in stage plays; he likewise appeared on the Spring Festival Gala, and a few years ago he gained fame thanks to Hao Jian.
However,
In this circle, he's just a peripheral figure.
Let alone this world.
Even in his previous life, without "Love Apartment," how many people would have known Shen Teng?
It's precisely because of this film that Shen Teng truly took off.
Now there's no Happy Mahua, not even the play "Love Apartment," and on top of that Shen Teng isn't well known.
Isn't this like picking up free gold from the sky?
Lin Mo's thoughts weren't that simple; he plans to start a company and then sign Shen Teng into it.
Thinking that he could launch a hundred‑billion‑yuan movie star from his own hands makes him a bit excited.
"Teacher Shen Teng, hello!"
With that in mind, Lin Mo proactively greets Shen Teng.
Beside him, Re Ba is also drawn by the address, turns to look at Shen Teng, and mutters to herself that the teacher looks familiar, but she can't recall his works at the moment.
"Huh?"
Shen Teng is in a heated conversation with Zhang Lei when the sudden greeting snaps him back to reality.
Zhang Lei also appeared in Heart Flower Road, playing an unreliable host in it.
When it comes to his name, most people probably don't know it.
But if you mention which role he played,
you'll likely know.
The flowing Zhenhua student, the iron‑clad Director Pan.
In the drama Our Best, he portrayed Director Pan, and that role made him go viral, with netizens nicknaming him the "National Teaching Director".
"You didn't even get into Zhenhua, yet you want to fight?"
"At Zhenhua, we never have early romances!"
That scene and line are probably familiar to everyone now.
At this moment.
Shen Teng is a bit bewildered.
He doesn't know the young man in front of him.
However, Shen Teng had just seen Director Xu, General Manager Wang and the others chatting animatedly with Lin Mo at the same table, and he was pondering how to start a greeting, when unexpectedly the other party spoke first and even called him by name, which left him both surprised and a little excited.
"I've seen your previous Spring Festival Gala sketch, Hao Jian!"
Lin Mo said with a smiling grin.
When Re Ba heard "Hao Jian," she immediately realized—it was him.
"Ah, hello, hello!" Shen Teng, upon hearing that, quickly brushed his hands over his clothes as if fearing dust, then shook hands with Lin Mo, feeling a bit nervous inside.
After all, someone who knows Director Xu and General Manager Wang that well can't be an ordinary person.
Lin Mo, seeing Shen Teng's demeanor,
thought to himself with a smile, "Is that really Shen Teng?"
To know that—
The later Shen Teng, describing him with the movie title "Feng's Pants" is no exaggeration; he's a veteran cannon in the comedy world.
Seeing him so restrained now is rather interesting.
Immediately, Lin Mo began conversing with him.
And Shen Teng also learned Lin Mo's name.
(He) works in comedy.
His eloquence is certainly extraordinary.
So, after a short while, the two became familiar.
The people nearby watched the scene and felt a great envy.
Director Xu personally received them, and General Manager Wang also went over to greet; this young man's background must be substantial.
They wanted to step forward and get friendly, but felt embarrassed.
Re Ba sat quietly beside Lin Mo, listening to his conversation with Shen Teng.
She was quite curious inside.
And so, they ate while chatting.
After the dinner ended, Xu Zheng, Huang Bo and the others led everyone toward the nearby cinema.
It's about half an hour until the Heart Flower Road premiere.
