Chapter 135

On the other end of the phone, Chris Columbus is also delighted after hearing his friend's words.

He is a specialized children's film director, which is a relatively niche category of film. Previously, filming Home Alone 1 made him very popular, but later, without Chen Mo's participation, Home Alone got worse year by year.

Now Chris Columbus is almost at the point of having no films to shoot.

"What novel?"

Chris Columbus asks hurriedly.

David Heyman says: "Harry Potter."

Hearing David Heyman's words, Chris Columbus frowns.

He has heard of this novel and has thought about adapting it, but the cost of filming it is too high.

"The cost is very high."

Chris Columbus says, frowning.

David Heyman says: "Get the copyright first, then raise investment, and you will be responsible for filming."

"Okay!"

Chris Columbus thinks for a while and answers directly.

After the two discuss it, the next day, David Heyman takes a plane to the UK and finds the author of Harry Potter.

But unexpectedly, the reply he gets is that the copyright has already been sold.

David Heyman asks persistently: "Then what about the other volumes of this novel?"

"They have all been sold as well."

Hearing the reply, David Heyman has a dejected expression.

Subsequently, he asks about the person who bought the copyright. When he hears the name of the person who bought the copyright, the image of the young man who has recently become very popular in Hollywood instantly appears in David Heyman's mind!

One day later.

David Heyman returns to Los Angeles and tells Chris Columbus about the matter.

And Chris Columbus, upon learning that the copyright was bought by Chen Mo's father, immediately has an idea.

He immediately calls Chen Mo.

After all, he has collaborated with Chen Mo before, so he has Chen Mo's contact number.

Villa.

Chen Mo is playing with music in the recording studio.

He is also stunned after receiving Chris Columbus's call.

"Director Chris."

"Chen Mo, I heard your father bought the copyright to Harry Potter, is that right?"

Chris Columbus on the other end of the phone asks with a smile.

After hearing this, Chen Mo raises an eyebrow and smiles: "Yes, Director Chris, what's the matter?"

Chris Columbus's words are a bit hesitant.

Chen Mo ponders for a moment in his heart.

In his previous life, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was also initiated in 1999, then actors were chosen, and filming finally started, and it wasn't until the new millennium that production was completed and it was released.

"Director Chris, do you want to film Harry Potter?"

Chen Mo asks directly.

Hearing Chen Mo's question, Chris Columbus doesn't hide anything and admits directly: "Yes, I think this is a very great subject. If it can be adapted into a film, it will definitely be a hit, and could even become a classic series."

Chen Mo is silent for two seconds and then smiles: "Director Chris, if I invite you to be the director of this film, and I invest in this film, and I want to star in this film, will you accept my invitation?"

After hearing this, Chris Columbus feels as if a pie has fallen from the sky.

He nods hurriedly and says: "Of course, I will try my best to film this movie well."

"Okay, then please come to my house tomorrow, Director Chris, we will communicate about some detailed matters in person."

"Okay."

After the two finish talking, Chen Mo hangs up the phone.

Soon, it is evening.

Chen Mo tells Chen Fu and Mother Chen about his desire to film Harry Potter.

Because he sold the shares, Chen Fu, who has billions of dollars, agrees to the filming without a second thought.

So the next day.

Director Chris Columbus arrives at Chen Mo's villa.

Then the following matters are the negotiations between Chen Fu, Mother Chen, and Chris Columbus.

After negotiating for a whole morning, Chris Columbus leaves Chen Mo's house.
