Chapter 304: Jun Ji-hyun's legs go weak, the plan to acquire novel copyrights begins

~7 min read 1,331 words

"Does Chen Mo really not think I'm a strange woman?"

Jun Ji-hyun was like a deflated balloon.

She estimated that Chen Mo's first impression of her was terrible.

After all, the first time they met, she sprayed water all over Chen Mo's face and accidentally touched his "little bird."

No...

It should have been a "big bird."

Thinking of this, Jun Ji-hyun's face turned red again.

Just as Jun Ji-hyun was letting her imagination run wild, all the camera positions were ready.

This scene was of Chen Mo taking a phone call while taking a bath in the bathroom, which meant that to film this scene, Chen Mo needed to be bare-chested.

Once they heard that this scene involved filming Chen Mo taking a bath, all the female staff in the crew showed up.

Just kidding, this was Chen Mo!

The male star rated by international media as having the most perfect muscle lines!

What woman wouldn't crave that?

Jun Ji-hyun also found the best viewing spot, looking at the filming area while feeling annoyed.

"He's coming, he's coming!"

"Oh my god, his physique is too good."

"This is the kind of physique a real man should have."

"How can Momo be so handsome?"

"Husband! Hurry up and have children with me!"

As soon as Chen Mo appeared, a huge scream erupted throughout the crew.

They saw Chen Mo wrapped only in a bath towel around his waist, his perfect muscle lines stimulating everyone's visual nerves.

Coupled with his bronze skin and handsome face, many female staff felt that even breathing was difficult.

They finally understood why boys liked looking at fair-skinned, beautiful women with long legs so much.

Having someone who is good-looking and has a good physique is simply a visual treat.

Everyone has a heart that appreciates beauty.

Chen Mo calmly turned on the shower, the water flowing over his hair and down every inch of his muscles.

Everyone's gaze followed the water droplets downward...

No, this won't do.

If they kept filming on-site, someone would definitely faint from excitement.

"Cut! Prepare for the next scene!"

The director shouted excitedly.

Just the shot they had just filmed, as long as it aired, the ratings would absolutely explode!

Jun Ji-hyun took a deep breath.

Just as she wanted to stand up to film the next scene, she realized her legs had already gone weak.

Chen Mo was too masculine.

……

"Brother Mo, here's a towel."

Xu Xiaofeng handed the towel to Chen Mo, not daring to meet his eyes.

That scene just now was too intense.

She also had many fantasies in her heart.

Chen Mo gave a hum and took the towel, casually wiping his hair.

The next two scenes were Jun Ji-hyun's parts, so he could rest for a while.

Chen Mo took out his phone, boredly looking at the news online; after flipping through two pages, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"*The Three-Body Problem* timeline?"

He was browsing the Tianya Forum, where netizens were discussing the timeline of *The Three-Body Problem*.

*The Three-Body Problem* was a very powerful science fiction novel in the country; it could be said that when the domestic science fiction novel scene was barren, *The Three-Body Problem* carved out a bloody path.

According to the timeline of *The Three-Body Problem*, 2007 was the beginning where everything started to unfold.

Because Chen Mo went to the United States very early, many of the copyrights he acquired were foreign novels and comics.

Such as *Harry Potter* and the Marvel series.

He had forgotten that many novels were starting to rise domestically as well.

Especially in the last two years.

If he could acquire the copyrights to these novels, he could remake them into films and television dramas when they were finished.

By then, creating related IPs would yield very considerable profits.

Moreover, these novels were still being serialized, so the copyright fees were not very expensive; taking this opportunity, he could acquire many novel copyrights in one go.

Having decided on his plan, Chen Mo immediately called Wang Jinghua.

"*The Three-Body Problem*? *Ghost Blows Out the Light*? Are you sure you want me to acquire the copyrights to these two novels?"

Wang Jinghua was very surprised on the phone.

She had never heard the names of these novels at all.

If they were going to acquire novel copyrights, they should be acquiring famous ones.

"Yes, especially *The Three-Body Problem*; no matter what, we must sign a contract with the author."

Chen Mo emphasized.

Now, the first part of *The Three-Body Problem* had just finished serialization, and the second part wouldn't start serialization until 2008.

It was precisely the latter two parts that made this novel truly legendary.

Liu Cixin won various awards.

Therefore, buying the copyright now and signing a contract with Liu Cixin was the best choice.

Seeing that Chen Mo had said so, Wang Jinghua didn't say anything else.

Since it could be valued by Chen Mo, it meant these two novels must have their own merits.

……

A few days later, Chen Mo received a call from Wang Jinghua.

"Momo, we have already bought the copyright for *Ghost Blows Out the Light*, and the author, Tianxia Bachang, is very willing to cooperate with us."

Wang Jinghua reported the situation to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo nodded.

He wasn't worried about Tianxia Bachang.

Originally, when Tianxia Bachang was writing the *Ghost Blows Out the Light* series, he never thought that one day he would be able to make this book a hit.

Momo Company was now the strongest entertainment company in the country.

With such a company buying his copyright and promising to remake his novel into a film or television drama, Tianxia Bachang would certainly not refuse.

"As for *The Three-Body Problem*, we are still communicating with the author, but he seems to have encountered a bottleneck while writing, so he cannot guarantee that he can finish the entire novel."

Wang Jinghua spoke truthfully.

"Sister Wang, help me arrange a meeting with the author; I will talk to him personally."

Chen Mo thought for a moment and said.

Currently, Liu Cixin had only finished the first novel and wasn't sure if he could finish the whole series.

If he signed a contract with Momo Company without finishing it, he would have to pay a huge amount of compensation.

The current Liu Cixin was just an ordinary person.

It was normal for him to have concerns.

Wang Jinghua nodded on the other end of the phone, and after confirming some details with Chen Mo, she hung up.

……

One day later, Momo Company.

Liu Cixin was sitting in Chen Mo's office, feeling a bit uneasy.

He knew who Chen Mo was; after all, the news about Chen Mo was everywhere in society now.

You could also see Chen Mo's figure on many channels when you turned on the TV.

Even if he had no interest in the entertainment industry, under these circumstances, he still had a certain understanding of Chen Mo.

A handsome male star who was currently in the limelight.

"Hello, Liu Cixin."

Just as Liu Cixin was feeling at a loss, Chen Mo pushed open the office door and walked in.

"Hello."

Liu Cixin was stunned; he didn't expect Chen Mo to be so easygoing.

"I heard you are still hesitating about selling the copyright?"

Chen Mo got straight to the point.

"Yes, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it."

Liu Cixin gave a bitter smile.

The creation of science fiction novels is different from other novels; it needs to be based on certain theoretical knowledge.

He currently felt a bit strained in the creation of the second novel.

Recently, the plot had even hit a wall; he couldn't write out the relationship between Earth, the Trisolarans, and the universe.

After listening to Liu Cixin roughly explain where his plot was stuck, Chen Mo thought for a moment and spoke.

"Have you ever thought about the Dark Forest Theory?"
