Chapter 454: Brother Cheng Long: When I Was Young, I Always Bought Seven‑Dollar Watches!
Back then, when filming The Wandering Earth 2, the role of Tu Hengyu.
Lin Mo immediately thought of Hua Ge.
Originally.
In his impression, the original film The Wandering Earth 2 was acted by Hua Ge.
It can be said that in recent years, it's one of the few highly praised roles Hua Ge has had.
Mainly because he had taken on many bad movies before; if he weren't both virtuous and talented, a perennial fixture of the Entertainment Circle, he would have already been heavily criticized by netizens.
Look, Hong Jingbao over there.
He heard this and, still smiling, said to Director Lin: "Director Lin, don't think I'm old; I can still fight well now. If there's a role suitable for me, you can find me. If that doesn't work, just arrange for me to have a fight with this kid, that's fine~"
Saying that, Hong Jingbao patted Cheng Long Da Ge beside him.
This kid...
I guess only Hong Jingbao in the circle dares to call Long Shu like that.
You see, Long Shu actually smiles happily at that nickname.
"Definitely, definitely, Bao Ge, if there's a role suitable for you, I'll definitely find you. After all, your image is unique in the circle!" Lin Mo said with a smile.
Just kidding, Hong Jingbao is nicknamed by netizens as the live‑action Kung Fu Panda.
Both fleshy and capable of fighting!
It means Hong Jingbao is now old.
Otherwise, a live‑action Kung Fu Panda would be his first choice.
Speaking of which.
Lin Mo's most memorable movie of Hong Jingbao is something everyone would definitely not guess.
"My Agent Grandpa", when Lin Mo watched it back then, he saw in the film that Hong Jinbao's moves were crisp and efficient, and extremely fierce, usually ending the opponent in one or two strikes, either death or injury.
So, if later his movies have a role suitable for Hong Jingbao, he'll definitely be approached first.
Hong Jingbao didn't really mind hearing Lin Mo's words.
He was originally that casual; he's been out of the spotlight for several years. After all, his age has increased, he's a bit less able to fight, and with no good scripts, he's simply too lazy to act.
Of course.
If Lin Mo asked him to act, he'd definitely be willing.
An actor, especially these veteran actors, finds a good script and a good role an almost lethal temptation.
Just like back when Hua Ge took on the script Infernal Affairs, he was so eager to challenge the role of Liu Jianming that he would even lower his fee to play it.
These past two days in Xiang Jiang.
Lin Mo has been extremely busy, with people visiting the set daily, making calls, or someone using connections to reach Long Shu, then asking Long Shu to set up a meeting, wanting to get to know Lin Mo or something.
As for filming and set arrangements, of course those were handed to his two capable deputies.
Afternoon.
Re Ba went shopping, came back after spending.
"You're having so much fun shopping alone~" Lin Mo said with a smile upon seeing Re Ba arrive.
Re Ba pouted, "Who said I'm alone!" She pushed Yuan Yuan forward, "Yuan Yuan can testify!"
Hearing that, Lin Mo looked at Yuan Yuan behind her and teased, "Yuan Yuan, your sister Re Ba is using you as a laborer, look how tired you are~"
Sure enough, the little girl's eyes had lost their sparkle.
"Ah.."
Yuan Yuan was still daydreaming.
She heard Director Lin's words and quickly replied, "No…no!"
Re Ba hugged Yuan Yuan's shoulder, frowned at Lin Mo, "Stop misjudging! I bought Yuan Yuan a new LV bag!" She pulled a box from the bag, "If you don't believe it, look!"
Yuan Yuan had indeed been daydreaming, not because she was tired from shopping; after all, women never get tired of shopping.
Actually, being a star's assistant and such.
Is just like being in the underworld.
If you have the right boss, good luck lets you stand out; if not, you end up in a funeral.
Similarly, assistants who follow stars, if they pick the right person, can look forward to blessings; if they pick the wrong one… the days are unbearably miserable.
"Alright, alright, I know you love your assistants the most." Lin Mo said, smiling as he patted Re Ba's little head.
Re Ba blinked her big eyes at Lin Mo, "Honey~ I also brought you a gift!"
"Oh?" Lin Mo raised an eyebrow and said, "It won't be another prank toy, will it?"
He still remembers it now.
Previously, Re Ba bought him a gift, and when he opened it.
Sure enough, it was a prank toy.
"Pfft—" Re Ba burst out laughing, quickly covering her mouth, "That time was an accident! This time it's a proper gift!" She took a deep‑blue velvet box from the bag.
Lin Mo thought Re Ba had bought some small trinket, but when he opened it, he found a watch.
A Patek Philippe.
"Why did you think of buying me a watch~" Lin Mo picked up the watch and asked with a smile.
Re Ba blinked proudly, "I ordered it through someone half a year ago, originally planning to give it on your birthday, but since I heard it arrived when I came to Xiang Jiang, I gave it to you early!"
"How much is it?" Lin Mo looked at the watch and thought, he's not really interested in watches.
The one on his wrist was still bought by Re Ba.
But regarding the brand, there are a few he still recognizes.
After all, this is an entertainment novel, not a billionaire novel.
24 million!
Just then, a voice sounded from behind Lin Mo; it was Cheng Long Big Brother walking over.
Then Cheng Long Big Brother looked at Re Ba and said, "This watch has arrived!"
"Yes, Long Shu, the goods arrived today!" Re Ba said with a smile.
24 million!
Lin Mo was stunned.
What a guy!
It's like wearing a house on your wrist!
He really didn't expect this watch to be so expensive.
Seeing Lin Mo's clueless expression, Cheng Long Big Brother also laughed and said, "Half a year ago, Re Ba called me, saying she wanted to give you a limited-edition watch, preferably one of the few in the world; I, I'm a longtime customer of Patek Philippe, so I recommended this Ref. 5175."
Only seven exist worldwide! Re Ba begged me a lot for this.
Then Cheng Long Big Brother imitated Re Ba's tone, saying, "Long Shu~ must be the most special!"
Long Shu!
Re Ba blushed and stomped her foot.
Upon hearing that,
Lin Mo also laughed and exclaimed, "Why buy a watch for no reason? I'm not into this stuff, and besides, the watch I'm wearing is fine!"
Re Ba grabbed his wrist without saying a word: "You're an international director now; you must have the proper stature!"
"You little rascal, you've earned so much money yet enjoyed nothing; you should really enjoy life a bit!" Cheng Long Big Brother laughed and said.
"When I was young, I bought seven brand-name watches, wearing one each day and rotating them!"
Then Cheng Long Big Brother went on to talk about his glorious past exploits.
Hearing this, Lin Mo and Re Ba couldn't help but laugh.
