Chapter 62: Release Date Set for July 16!

I didn't expect that.

This time coming to Hengdian, I found a huge loophole!

Zhang Songwen!

He's definitely a treasure of an actor!

A single Wild Storm can be said to have taken the whole country by fire!

We have to sign him!

Evening.

After returning to the hotel.

Re Ba then curiously asked, "Mo Ge, you seemed so happy this afternoon—what's the good news?"

During the afternoon shoot.

She had been keeping an eye on Mo Ge all along.

"That obvious?" Lin Mo was momentarily stunned.

"What do you think~ My mouth is practically smiling to my ears~" Re Ba said with a grin.

Then she added, "Come on, tell me, what's the good news!"

"Actually nothing much, I just saw a fairly outstanding actor and I'm planning to sign him!"

"Huh?" Re Ba was startled, then curiously asked, "Who?"

"Zhang Songwen, who taught acting at Beidian before—he's a very impressive actor!"

"Teacher Zhang, I've heard of him!"

So that's what it was about.

Re Ba had been wondering what it could be.

But.

She wasn't overly curious.

Anyway, whatever Mo Ge does, she supports it.

Signing Zhang Songwen.

It's simple and easy.

Just like when we signed Shen Teng back then.

Now, Zhang Songwen.

is still going around leveraging connections to find a crew.

He's the type who finishes one drama and has no next project lined up.

To be noticed by Director Lin.

He even thought it was a dream.

Lin Mo told him to finish this film, go to Mo Du, and find Liu Qin, the manager at Morning Light Film & Media; she will arrange it. (It used to be Rising Sun Media, but readers associated it with the Rising Sun flag, so the name was changed!)

This time the review of The Richest Man in Xihong City was a bit slower than before.

It took about half a month to get approval.

As for Lin Mo,

He returned to Mo Du two days ago.

Thanks to the previous film Charlotte's Trouble, Lin Mo already had some fame.

Therefore, the promotion for The Richest Man in Xihong City this time can't be sloppy.

The promo clip needs a quick edit.

And he has to confirm the movie's release date.

In the Magic City Star Group.

So Lin Mo asked in the group, "Summer Blockbuster Season, does anyone have a film slated for release?"

He mainly wanted to gauge the situation.

To see which movies might clash with the Summer Blockbuster Season.

"I don't have any!" Deng Chao.

"I don't either!" Chen He.

"I have one—my film Noble Trace releases on July 10!" Yang Mi.

"@Lin Mo, junior brother, there's a star‑studded blockbuster coming out; let me tell you about Legend of the Gods!" Xu Zheng.

"Exactly, exactly, Legend of the Gods is packed with big names!" Zheng Kai.

"Yeah, I also have a role in it!" Huang Xiaoming.

"......"

Originally.

Lin Mo was just curious and asked like that.

But when he saw the titles of those two movies,

he almost laughed out loud.

Guo Xiao Si's Noble Trace and Legend of the Gods.

Both films are astonishingly terrible.

One scored 3.6, the other 3.0...

Then.

Xu Zheng sent him a pop‑up message.

He made a list of the movies that are slated to be released soon.

It includes Noble Trace, Legend of the Gods, and Cold War 2.

"Thanks, senior brother!"

Lin Mo replied with a sentence.

Just these three movies.

To be honest.

He wasn't the least bit nervous.

It seems the box‑office champion of this Summer Blockbuster Season belongs to him.

As for the online promotion,

Leave the professional work to professionals.

After Liu Qin got the trailer,

he began to summon a wave of internet trolls.

Very quickly.

Online, the hype for The Richest Man in Xihong City rose.

"Huh, is this movie going to be released so soon?"

"Just finished the trailer; it looks pretty good!"

"Why isn't Ma Dongmei in it!"

"Sure enough, Director Lin has the same taste as me; the female lead is so beautiful!"

"You bunch of lsp!"

"That girl only had a few scenes in Charlotte's Trouble, and I fell for her instantly!"

"It premieres on July 16, still 20 days away!"

Don't even mention it.

Once a person gains a reputation, the benefits are quite many.

The previous film, Charlotte's Trouble, left a deep impression on netizens.

This time, you can tell the new movie is highly anticipated by everyone.

On the other side.

Xiao Tian at school.

After the trailer for The Richest Man in Xihong City was released,

she could no longer hide it.

especially her classmates.

It was truly shocking!

They were still in class.

Xiao Tian has already become the female lead.

This really is...

Comparing oneself to others, it drives you mad!

Of course.

Lin Mo hasn't forgotten Chen Zhong either.

He's still filming Steal Pen.

Because some scenes require dedicated set construction, filming becomes more troublesome.

There's another reason:

Since it's Chen Zhong's first time directing, he's afraid of not delivering a satisfactory result, so the shooting pace isn't that fast.

Lin Mo flew over specifically to check on the set.

Regarding the actors,

He had already seen them before.

They generally fit the original drama's image.

Especially the actor playing the little brother.

His name is Xiao Yuliang.

The image matches perfectly!

Earlier, Lin Mo had already had Chen Zhong sign him into the company.

After all, Steal Pen is a huge IP; the series alone could be made countless times, including movies.

So the most core character must be signed!

Rong Cheng.

The location for the next episode of Extreme Challenge.

If it weren't for Huang Bo sending him a message a few days ago, Lin Mo would have forgotten about this.

Fortunately, after everything was finished,

Lin Mo took Shen Teng with him, and Xiao Tian flew over.

They arrived at the place.

The Production Team staff escorted them to the hotel, and after their luggage was stored,

they finally went to meet the members of the Extreme Challenge Brotherhood.

The lobby was bustling with excitement.

Huang Bo, the moment he saw Lin Mo, was overly affectionate and gave him a bear hug: "Lin Mo, you finally made it; it's not easy to have a great Buddha like you!"

The two could be considered old acquaintances.

Lin Mo laughed and patted Huang Bo's back: "Bo Ge, where did you hear that? I'm right here, after all."

Huang Bo turned around and teased Shen Teng: "Tengge, you're getting hotter and hotter now!"

Shen Teng laughed heartily, and Xiao Tian politely called out "Bo Ge" from beside him.

Next, then.

Huang Bo then began introducing people to Lin Mo.

The first was Sun Honglei.

Lin Mo was extremely familiar with him!

In a previous life, he had watched Conquest countless times.

"Hong Lei Ge, my idol!" Lin Mo said with a smile, shaking hands with Sun Honglei.

Sun Honglei beamed: "Director Lin, your Charlotte's Trouble, my wife and I watched twice; it was fantastic!"

As the round went on, Teacher Huang, Xun Ge, Zhang Yixing, Xiao Zhu, and Lin Mo hit it off with them.

The same.

Extreme Challenge Brotherhood.

When they learned that this episode's guest was Lin Mo, they were all quite excited.

After all, he's become very famous in the Director Circle lately.

And also.

They are actors.

Naturally they want a chance to work with an excellent director.

Of course.

Finally, Huang Bo didn't forget to pull Lin Mo over and greet the program director Yan Min.
