Chapter 198

Father Chen nodded with a smile.

Then Little Pony left, pretending to be serious.

Half an hour later, Little Pony returned to the reception room.

"Chairman Chen, after our discussion, we have decided to accept your investment. I don't know how much you want to invest?"

Little Pony asked with a smile.

Father Chen smiled and held up a thumb: "Two hundred million US dollars."

Little Pony was stunned there.

An hour later, Little Pony sent Chen Mo and Father Chen away from the company with a smiling face, and at this moment, Father Chen already had the contract in his hand.

Two hundred million US dollars was definitely impossible!

According to the current market value of the communication company, two hundred million could buy the whole company!

Little Pony wouldn't agree to sell either.

So Father Chen directly invested 10 million US dollars and received a total of 37% of the shares.

In addition, the contract also stated that if other shareholders wanted to withdraw their shares, Father Chen had the right of first refusal.

Finally, there was one more point: Father Chen must not participate in the company's operation and management.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it was just investing and waiting to get money.

For this point, Chen Mo naturally agreed ten thousand times.

Although Father Chen didn't want to agree in his heart, seeing Chen Mo winking at him, he agreed out of trust in his son.

After leaving the communication company, the two took a plane back to Jingcheng.

Then Chen Mo stayed in Jingcheng for another three days before taking a plane to Los Angeles.

The Oscar and Grammy awards were about to start there, and "Harry Potter 4" was also about to start filming.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

The Oscar ceremony began.

Chen Mo attended the ceremony with Chris Columbus, Emma Watson, and others.

Not seen for a year, Emma Watson had grown up a bit more.

You could tell from the clothes she was wearing.

"Harry!"

Emma Watson smiled and opened her arms to hug Chen Mo.

Chen Mo also smiled and reached out to hug Emma Watson.

Although it was said that Emma Watson grew up to be less attractive in the future, that was something from more than ten years later, and at this time, she still looked delicious and sweet.

"Long time no see, Hermione, how is your magic learning this year?"

After hugging Emma, Chen Mo asked jokingly with a smile.

"Of course, I can already use many high-level spells, Crucio..."

As she spoke, Emma smiled and gestured.

As the two were chatting, Chris Columbus walked over from not far away.

Then Chen Mo chatted with Chris Columbus for a few more sentences, asking about the filming time of Harry Potter 4.

After getting the exact time, the three prepared to start walking the red carpet.

And at this moment, on the red carpet, actors or guests were walking in twos and threes.

Among them were several Asian faces!

These people were the crew of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" that Chen Mo had visited before.

Among them were Ang Lee, Zhang Ziyi, Yang Ziqing, and Chow Yun-fat.

Last year, in 2001, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" had a big box office success in China, and then launched an overseas release plan, obtaining 200 million US dollars in box office after the overseas release!

And this year, it also received nominations for ten Oscar awards.

Including Best Foreign Language Film, Best Art Direction, Best Original Score, Best Picture, Best Director, etc.

Receiving so many nominations made some domestic media report it one after another!

Praising this movie in various ways, including several actors who were also praised fiercely.

"Miss Zhang Ziyi, may I ask how you feel about being able to participate in the Oscar ceremony?"

"Director Ang Lee, nominated for Best Director, do you have anything to say?"

"Miss Zhang Ziyi, I heard you are good friends with Chen Mo, is it true?"

Reporters on both sides interviewed them one after another.

Although Zhang Ziyi really wanted to stop and answer the questions, there were still people waiting to walk the carpet behind, so she could only continue walking inside with a smile.

Soon they reached the end of the red carpet.

At this time, a louder noise than when they walked the red carpet suddenly came from behind.

Hearing the sound, Zhang Ziyi, Ang Lee, and others looked behind them.

Then they saw Chris Columbus walking over with the members of the Harry Potter crew.

Among these people, Chen Mo was walking beside Chris Columbus, and Emma Watson next to him was reaching out to hold Chen Mo's arm.

Reporters on both sides held their cameras and aimed them at them, frantically pressing the shutters.

"Chen Mo, may I ask if you are dating Emma Watson?"

"Chen Mo, may I ask if Avril is your girlfriend?"

"Someone saw you and Avril coming out of a hotel room together, may I ask if it's true?"

The reporters' questions came.

Chen Mo frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything and continued walking forward.

When he reached the end, Chen Mo saw Zhang Ziyi, Ang Lee, and others standing on the side.

"Director Ang Lee, long time no see."

Chen Mo greeted with a smile.

"Long time no see."

Ang Lee also laughed.

"Let me introduce you, this is Chris Columbus, this is..."

Chen Mo introduced them, and after the introduction, they walked inside together.

Entering the interior, led by the staff, everyone came to their seats and sat down.

Coincidentally, the two crews happened to be together.

Seeing that the seats were together, a smile appeared on Ang Lee's face.

When Chen Mo visited the set before, Ang Lee actually had an idea in his heart, wanting to invite Chen Mo to film a movie, but Chen Mo was too young, and now a year had passed, Chen Mo was already sixteen. If Chen Mo agreed, the movie would start filming next year, and Chen Mo would be 17 then, which was a suitable age.

Now that the seats were together, it was just the right opportunity to chat with Chen Mo.

Thinking of this, Ang Lee leaned over to Chen Mo and said with a smile: "Chen Mo, I have a good movie here, would you like to consider it?"

Hearing Ang Lee's words, Chen Mo pondered in his heart and shook his head directly: "I'm sorry, for the next few years, apart from Harry Potter, I don't have any thoughts of filming other movies for the time being."

"Uh, actually the script for this movie is great, believe me, if you can film it, you might be able to win the Oscar for Best Actor."

Ang Lee tempted.

Chen Mo still shook his head directly.

Chen Mo had already guessed what movie Ang Lee wanted to invite him to film!

"Brokeback Mountain"!

He wouldn't act in it even if he died!

So Chen Mo refused without hesitation.

Seeing Chen Mo shake his head, Ang Lee sighed with some disappointment, and then he turned and left.

And after he left, Zhang Ziyi came over again.

She moved her chair directly to Chen Mo's side and sat down.

"Long time no see, the last concert was great, especially the last song you sang, I especially like it."

Zhang Ziyi said with a charming smile.

When Chen Mo held the concert before, he had dozens of movie tickets in his hand, and Chen Mo called the people he knew, including Zhang Ziyi.

Hearing Zhang Ziyi's words, Chen Mo smiled and said: "It was okay."

Zhang Ziyi's eyes turned and she said again: "By the way, I heard that Mo Mo's company is preparing to establish a branch company in China recently?" ===== CHAPTER 200 =====
