Chapter 277

"Dad, why don't you just film a military drama, the kind about fighting the Japanese."

Chen Mo thought of the TV series *Soldiers Sortie*.

It just happened to fit Chen Fu's image and age.

Chen Fu agreed immediately.

What he played didn't matter; he trusted that Chen Mo wouldn't arrange any strange or bizarre roles for him.

He just wanted to try acting.

……

After playing on the island for four days, Chen Mo finally left the island with Yang Mi and Liu Yifei.

Chen Fu, Chen Mu, and his grandparents hadn't had enough fun yet, so they all planned to stay on the island for a few more days.

Back in the country.

*CJ7* had finished filming and had begun promotion.

In the promotional trailer, Chen Mo's shots as a middle-aged father only appeared a few times, but those few shots were enough to arouse the audience's curiosity.

Previously, many people thought Chen Mo couldn't pull off a father role.

In the trailer, the audience almost didn't recognize Chen Mo.

Some even watched it several times before realizing that the middle-aged man inside was actually Chen Mo.

He acted too much like it.

This movie seemed to be much better than what the market expected!

Taking advantage of the buzz caused by the trailer, Wang Jinghua began to vigorously promote *CJ7*.

At the same time, Chen Mo had the Moge Company prepare the crew for *Soldiers Sortie*.

Of course, before filming, *Soldiers Sortie* still had to cast its roles.

Currently, the only confirmed actor was Chen Fu.

……

"You really intend to let Wang Baoqiang act in a military drama with your father?"

Wang Jinghua looked at Chen Mo in surprise.

This was the first time she had questioned Chen Mo's casting.

She knew Wang Baoqiang, not because he was famous, but because he had participated in Liu Dehua's *A World Without Thieves*.

In it, he was just a simple migrant worker image.

The whole person was silly and rustic, not at all fitting the image of a soldier.

Moreover, the role Chen Mo wanted Wang Baoqiang to play was a sharpshooter.

"Yes, I also plan to sign him to our company."

Chen Mo nodded.

People might not be able to tell now, but Wang Baoqiang was definitely a rare actor in the entertainment industry.

Later, the movies he filmed like *Lost in Thailand*, *Detective Chinatown*, and some other comedies were basically all massive hits.

"Think about it again; our company has also signed many young people with decent looks; that Han Geng is not bad."

Wang Jinghua rubbed her temples.

She really couldn't imagine how Wang Baoqiang could play a soldier well.

"No need, it's him."

Chen Mo waved his hand, having completely decided to let Wang Baoqiang star in *Soldiers Sortie*.

Seeing Chen Mo insist, Wang Jinghua had no choice but to follow his instructions and bring Wang Baoqiang over.

However, she still didn't think Wang Baoqiang could play this role well.

When Wang Baoqiang walked into Moge Company, his face was full of caution.

He had never thought he would be sought out by such a big company to film a movie.

"Are you really looking for me to film?"

Wang Baoqiang's Mandarin wasn't standard; it naturally carried a sense of humor.

"Yes, not only do I want you to film, but I also want to sign a contract with you."

Chen Mo actually had a good impression of Wang Baoqiang.

Wang Baoqiang had no idol baggage when filming, and he had learned martial arts when he was young, so many martial arts elements could be added to the movies he filmed.

"That's great! I'll go back and tell my girlfriend that I signed with Moge Company; she will definitely be overjoyed."

Wang Baoqiang was full of excitement.

Girlfriend?

"Is your girlfriend named Ma Rong?"

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow, remembering the news from his past life.

"You know her?"

Wang Baoqiang still had a happy smile on his face; upon hearing Chen Mo mention his girlfriend, he thought they knew each other.

"I don't know her; I just want to remind you of one thing: a beautiful woman can be a disaster."

Chen Mo said it just enough; after all, this was Wang Baoqiang's private life.

Even if he told Wang Baoqiang now that his girlfriend would cheat on him with his manager in the future, given Wang Baoqiang's personality, he would still choose to believe Ma Rong.

It was better to just give a hint.

Maybe it would be a little useful.

Wang Baoqiang frowned, taking Chen Mo's words to heart, and carefully pondered Chen Mo's meaning.

……

A few days later, the *Soldiers Sortie* crew was ready, and all actors entered the set.

Chen Mo's home.

"Mom, you've paced back and forth several times; if you're really worried about Dad, just go to the set and see him."

Chen Mo took a bite of an apple and looked helplessly at Chen Mu, who was pacing back and forth.

"I'm just worried that your dad won't know how to act and will make a fool of himself."

The more Chen Mu thought about it, the more worried she became.

Ever since Chen Mo became famous and their family became wealthy, their family life had been constantly magnified by the media in the news.

Even an actor with as good acting skills as Chen Mo was sometimes questioned.

She was afraid that if Chen Fu didn't act well, he would be questioned by the media and the public, and he wouldn't be able to take it.

"Mo Mo, do you have time? Why don't you accompany Mom to the set to see him?"

After thinking about it, Chen Mu made up her mind.

Chen Mo wasn't in a hurry to enter the set for the time being; *The Return of the Condor Heroes* was a TV series with a large time span and a large volume.

Plus, they intended to make it a high-quality production this time, and they had Jin Yong personally guiding them.

So the filming progress was not fast.

Now the crew was still filming other actors' scenes, so he could accompany Chen Mu to visit Chen Fu on set.

As they spoke, they went straight out the door.

……

*Soldiers Sortie* crew.

The role Chen Fu played was Cheng Cai, who was also the squad leader of the character played by Wang Baoqiang.

When Chen Mo and Chen Mu arrived, Chen Fu and Wang Baoqiang were rehearsing.

To the surprise of Chen Mo and Chen Mu.

They had originally thought that Chen Fu would be a bit reserved for his first time acting, and his acting wouldn't be very good.

But Chen Fu was very into the role; you couldn't see his usual self at all; he really acted like an officer…

"Could it be that talent is really hereditary?"

Now it was Chen Mo's turn to be dumbfounded.

If he had known Chen Fu was so talented, he would have had father and son fight together long ago.
