Chapter 241

~8 min read 1,479 words

The awards ceremony ended quickly.

That same day, Chen Mo and Zhou Jielun returned to Jingcheng together.

After all, he had received quite a few trophies this time, and walking with Zhou Jielun meant he could have him help carry some.

After returning to Jingcheng, Chen Mo went straight home.

Upon reaching his front door, Chen Mo saw a bright red, flashy supercar parked there.

The supercar was a Ferrari Enzo.

It could be considered the newest model of supercar in this era.

Chen Mo walked up to the car, looked it over, and then turned to head back into the house.

Entering the living room, Chen Mo saw Mother Chen and his grandmother sitting on the sofa watching a TV series, while his grandfather and Chen Fu were nowhere to be seen.

"Oh my, Momo is back."

Seeing Chen Mo return, his grandmother stood up with a smile and pulled him over to sit by the sofa.

Chen Mo smiled and chatted with his grandmother and Mother Chen for a while, then asked, "Mom, whose car is that outside?"

"Didn't you tell your dad a while ago that you wanted a car? So your dad went and got this one for you."

Mother Chen said.

After she finished, she couldn't help but complain: "Chen Guohua is really something! Out of all the cars he could have bought, he had to pick a sports car. It doesn't even look good, it has a weird shape, and it's not comfortable to sit in either."

Chen Mo chuckled upon hearing this: "Mom, this kind of car is all about speed and the driving experience."

"Speed? Momo, let me tell you, you must be careful when you're driving, you hear me?"

"Mm, I know, Mom."

Chen Mo nodded obediently.

Then, Mother Chen thought of something and asked, "By the way, what's the deal with those two girls people are talking about online?"

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and explained the situation between himself, Sun Yanzi, and Cai Yilin.

Hearing Chen Mo's explanation, Mother Chen frowned and said: "You're grown up now, an adult. I don't care what kind of girlfriend you find, but you absolutely cannot let anyone be wronged. Is that clear?"

"Mm, I know."

Chen Mo nodded hurriedly.

Seeing that Mother Chen still wanted to say something, he quickly stood up and ran upstairs.

Watching Chen Mo's retreating figure, Mother Chen shook her head helplessly.

Soon, evening arrived.

Chen Fu returned from the company, and his grandfather returned from fishing.

The family sat around the dining table eating dinner.

While eating, Chen Fu took the Ferrari Enzo keys and a driver's license out of his pocket and handed them to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo gave a cheeky smile, said thank you, and then put the keys and license away.

Seeing Chen Mo's beaming face, Chen Fu said: "Chris Columbus called from North America; Harry Potter 5 is all prepared now and can start filming at any time."

"Then let them start filming the other actors' scenes first; I'll head over in a few days."

"Alright."

Chen Fu nodded.

Soon after finishing dinner, Chen Mo went upstairs. He first called Yang Mi and Liu Yifei separately. He chatted with Yang Mi for a while, then told Liu Yifei about the filming of Harry Potter 5, and finally, Chen Mo hung up the phone and started to rest.

The next day, Chen Mo drove the Ferrari Enzo his father had bought him to the company.

Along the way, he received the admiring gazes of countless people.

However, because the windows were tinted to prevent peeping, people outside couldn't see inside, and it was Chen Mo driving.

But when Chen Mo drove the car downstairs and got out, he was noticed by some paparazzi, who took pictures of him.

Ignoring the paparazzi, Chen Mo went straight into the company.

Passing by the front desk, Chen Mo picked up the newspaper for the day to take a look.

The newspaper had reports about yesterday's Golden Melody Awards.

"Golden Melody Awards End, This Year's Biggest Winner!"

"Chen Mo Crowned King! Bombshell News Revealed at the Awards Ceremony!"

"Chen Mo Retiring from the Music Scene? Leaving Opportunities for the Youth?"

"A Shared Legacy! Mei Yanfang and Chen Mo, Master and Apprentice, Both Make This Decision!"

Chen Mo took a quick look, then put the newspaper back where it was and took the elevator to the post-production department.

He checked on the post-production progress of Transformers; the progress was still slow. There was no helping it, as it was only 2004, and Chen Mo had very high requirements for special effects. Therefore, even though the world's top special effects team was currently working on them, they still needed to spend a huge amount of time!

For a few seconds of footage in the film, they even needed a week or more to create it.

After spending the afternoon at the company, Chen Mo was just about to go home when his phone rang.

The call was from an unknown number.

"Hello."

"Hello, Teacher Chen Mo, I'm from Art Life. We'd like to invite you to participate in our Art Life program. I wonder if you have the time?"

A slightly familiar voice came from the other end of the line.

Hearing the voice, Chen Mo knew it was Zhu Jun, the host of Art Life from his previous life.

Art Life?

Chen Mo pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "Teacher Zhu, hello. You're too polite; just call me Chen Mo. I'm very sorry, but I'm going to the UK to film Harry Potter recently, so I'm afraid I don't have the time."

On the other end, Zhu Jun laughed: "That's alright, we only need half a day; tomorrow would work."

"After all, you've been in the industry for so many years and have never participated in an interview or talk show. Now, many fans hope you can participate in one. Why don't you treat this as fulfilling the wishes of the audience?"

Since it had come to this, it would be even worse for Chen Mo to refuse, so he agreed.

The two sides agreed on a time, setting it for tomorrow afternoon.

Chen Mo then hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Chen Mo frowned slightly.

It seems he needs to find an agent!

With the future development of the internet, as well as collaborations between artists in the entertainment industry and other businesses, he definitely needs an agent to help him handle these things.

But who to find?

Chen Mo started to ponder in his heart.

Soon, two names appeared in Chen Mo's mind!

Wang Jinghua!

Chang Jihong!

Wang Jinghua is known as the number one agent in the country and is currently at Brothers Entertainment. However, Chen Mo remembers that in 2005, she had a falling out with Brothers Entertainment and subsequently chose to leave the company.

Not only did she leave the company, but she also took a large group of artists with her, and her departure also led Brothers Entertainment to gradually head toward its end.

As for Chang Jihong, although she is not as famous as Wang Jinghua in later generations, her ability is no weaker than Wang Jinghua's. Furthermore, Chang Jihong's code of conduct has always been based on good works; she doesn't like hype, so the artists under her are all talented actors without scandals.

If he had to choose between these two, Chen Mo would actually prefer the latter. However, the latter's career is stable, and she wouldn't risk changing jobs and offending her employer to come to his company.

Chen Mo felt his own charm wasn't that great!

So, after thinking about it, Chen Mo still chose Wang Jinghua.

Because the current Wang Jinghua already had conflicts with Huayi Brothers, she was just enduring it.

If he extended an olive branch at this time and then gave some benefits, he could definitely pull Wang Jinghua over!

Thinking of this, Chen Mo went straight to Chen Fu's office.

After finding Chen Fu, Chen Mo talked about wanting to poach Wang Jinghua.

Chen Fu is now running an entertainment company, so naturally, he had heard of the great name of Wang Jinghua, the number one agent.

"Wang Jinghua is with Huayi Brothers; can she be poached?"

Chen Fu asked with a frown.

He doesn't consider whether poaching people from other companies is moral or not; Chen Fu cares more about whether it can be done.

"It should be possible. I heard that Wang Jinghua is currently having conflicts with those two brothers. As long as we offer enough chips, she will definitely come."

Chen Mo said.

Hearing Chen Mo's words, Chen Fu frowned and pondered.

A moment later, Chen Fu said: "Alright, I'll arrange this matter."

"Alright, Dad, then I'll head back first."
