Chapter 154

And Huayi Brothers, as the protagonist, immediately announced the termination of their cooperative relationship with Wang Jinghua, stating that there would be no possibility of cooperation in the future!

However, it didn't end there.

The next day, Wang Jinghua announced that she was joining Mo Mo's company. In addition, the actors who jumped ship with Wang Jinghua also announced one after another that they were joining Mo Mo's company.

Mo Mo's company also responded quickly, stating that they had already signed contracts with Wang Jinghua and the artists under her.

When this news was released, the already lively entertainment industry was like a pot of boiling water.

Overwhelming reports!

There were all kinds of speculations in the reports!

Some reports said that Mo Mo's company poached people from behind the scenes and spent a great price to get Wang Jinghua to jump ship with her artists.

Some reports said that Wang Jinghua had already fallen out with Brothers Entertainment, and Mo Mo's company just took advantage of the situation.

There were also reports saying that Chen Fu and Wang Jinghua had a relationship...

Chen Mu saw this report and then gave Chen Fu a fierce interrogation.

Soon, July arrived.

The sample reel for *Transformers* was completed.

The sample reel was immediately handed over to the SARFT (State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television) for review.

Because of the special nature of this film, and because it had been hyped up so much before, the leaders at SARFT personally participated in the review after receiving the sample reel.

The sample reel wasn't the final film; it didn't have post-production dubbing. Although it looked a bit awkward, everyone was still shocked by the content in the sample reel!

Movies could be filmed like this!

Two hundred million dollars!

It really wasn't a joke! You get what you pay for!

"Leader, should we cut some parts of this sample reel?"

The SARFT reviewer asked.

The leader pondered for a moment and said, "Cut two scenes symbolically and then pass it. Then have them set a release date as soon as possible!"

"Understood, leader."

The reviewer turned and left.

After the reviewer left, the leader who watched the *Transformers* sample reel today was in a great mood. He became interested and personally reviewed a few other films submitted for review.

When he saw one of the films, the leader was stunned.

"*House of Flying Daggers*? Old Man Zhang's movie?"

The leader muttered, then played the sample reel.

Over an hour later, the leader finished watching the sample reel, and the smile on his face grew even wider.

"Haha, another good film. It seems the spring of our domestic film industry is coming."

The leader smiled and then had the staff pass *House of Flying Daggers*.

Then, remembering something, he said to the staff, "By the way, mention to Director Zhang that the release dates of the two films shouldn't conflict."

"Understood, leader."

The staff left.

Soon, the review results for both films were notified to Mo Mo's company and Old Man Zhang.

After receiving the results, both sides began preparing their release dates.

"Director Zhang, the leader said, you should keep an eye on it; it's best not to have your release date conflict with that film from Mo Mo's company."

The SARFT staff conveyed the leader's words to Old Man Zhang.

Old Man Zhang frowned after hearing this.

"Alright, I know. Hang up."

Old Man Zhang hung up the phone heavily.

Then his expression turned ugly.

In fact, when Mo Mo's company first announced the *Transformers* plan, Old Man Zhang felt a bit of disdain, but at the same time, he was looking forward to them inviting him to direct, after all, it was a two-hundred-million-dollar production.

But he didn't expect things to go beyond everyone's expectations.

So this was why Old Man Zhang had opinions about *Transformers*.

And now, because of this sentence from the SARFT leader, Old Man Zhang's opinion of *Transformers* became even stronger!

In his view, it was definitely the SARFT leader worrying that if the two films were released together, *House of Flying Daggers* would overshadow *Transformers*.

After all, it was a two-hundred-million-dollar investment!

The highest-budget film in the world!

It always needed some face!

Old Man Zhang picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"The film passed. Let's set the release date for October 1st."

"Okay."

On the other side, at Mo Mo's company.

After Chen Fu learned that the film had passed, he also began to arrange the release date.

And coincidentally, the time was also set for October 1st.

The next day.

Both films announced their release dates at the same time!

When he saw the release dates of both sides, Chen Fu didn't have any thoughts, but on the contrary, Old Man Zhang became a bit excited!

They clashed! They clashed!

He had made the decision first; they were the ones who came over voluntarily, so don't blame him for slapping them in the face!

Old Man Zhang thought excitedly.

On the other side, the SARFT leader was a bit angry when he saw that the two films had clashed.

He hurriedly called Old Man Zhang, but couldn't get through.

Then he tried several more times, but still couldn't get through, so the leader sighed.

Forget it! Let him be!

Soon, August arrived.

*Harry Potter 5* wrapped up filming.

After attending the wrap-up banquet, Chen Mo took a plane back home the next day.

12 hours later, Chen Mo arrived at Jingcheng Airport.

Then he took a car back home.

Resting at home for a day, sleeping until noon the next day, Chen Mo finally got up from bed sluggishly.

Then he ate lunch slowly before driving to the company.

Arriving downstairs at the company, Chen Mo got out of the car and entered.

Arriving at Chen Fu's office, Chen Mo pushed the door open and walked straight in.

At this moment, Chen Fu was discussing company matters with Wang Jinghua.

Seeing Chen Mo come in, Chen Fu waved at him.

Then he introduced, "Wang Jinghua, Minister of the Artist Department. You can just call her Sister Wang."

"Hello, Sister Wang."

Chen Mo smiled and reached out his hand.

Wang Jinghua hurriedly stood up and reached out.

After all, the person in front of her was the crown prince of Mo Mo's company, and he held a global A-list status in both the music and film circles!

It could even be said, factually, that Chen Mo was currently the biggest star in the country.

"Hello."

The two shook hands.

Then Chen Mo walked to the side and sat down.

After sitting down, Chen Mo yawned.

To adjust his jet lag, Chen Mo had stayed up all night in the UK, and then slept until noon the next day after returning, but he was still a bit sleepy.

Seeing Chen Mo's state, Chen Fu smiled and said, "Just now, Minister Wang and I were talking about you. You haven't had an agent or assistant by your side for the past few years. Also, Uncle Zhou (Zhou Baoguo) is getting old, so I'm planning to have him retire and find you a new driver. Let your Sister Wang arrange these things for you."

Hearing Chen Fu's words, Chen Mo said, "Dad, Uncle Zhou is retiring, you can't treat him poorly."
