Chapter 110
Well, Chen Chen Chen Zhicheng had been very skeptical, after all, the TV drama circle and the film circle were simply not on the same level!
But when he saw the *Detective Chinatown 2* script written by Yu Mo, he was stunned.
An look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
Because this script... was written too well!!
It perfectly matched his own ideas, and even surpassed many points he hadn't thought of!
How is this possible!
How did this guy do it!
Of course, Tong Tong Tong Liya was also very nervous in her heart. After all, although Yu Mo had promised her,
whether this script could actually pass was anyone's guess. Perhaps Chen Chen Chen Zhicheng didn't want to collaborate with her at all.
Now, seeing no movement for a long time,
she felt even more anxious.
But she still feigned calmness and asked: "Well, are you satisfied this time?"
Unexpectedly, Chen Chen Chen Zhicheng on the other side didn't hesitate at all, saying excitedly: "Satisfied, I am very satisfied!"
Well, he had originally intended to fool Tong Tong Tong Liya, as he didn't believe this woman could produce any good script.
But now, Tong Tong Tong Liya had produced one.
Although he didn't know how Yu Mo managed it,
this script was almost exactly the same as his ideal vision.
Therefore, he quickly said: "Tell me, how much money do you want to sell me the script!"
"How much money?"
Tong Tong Tong Liya smiled when she heard this: "I never said I wanted money. Didn't I say before? I provide the suitable script, and I want 50% of the net profit of this film!"
Hmm?
This made Chen Chen Chen Zhicheng frown.
*Detective Chinatown 1* had over a billion in box office, and to be honest, it had already earned him 300 million!
But now, Tong Tong Tong Liya actually wanted half of this one!
If there were no accidents, the box office this time would definitely not be lower than *Detective Chinatown 1*!
But...
"Fine!"
Gritting his teeth and looking at the script, Chen Chen Chen Zhicheng had to bite the bullet and agree: "But don't forget, if you want net profit, you also need to invest!"
"Money is no problem!"
Tong Tong Tong Liya smiled when she heard this, secretly relieved that listening to Yu Mo was indeed the right choice.
This script was truly excellent, so she said: "I'll provide 20% of the investment!"
Providing 20% of the money but wanting 50% of the profit—a single script accounted for 30%!
Chen Chen Chen Zhicheng had never suffered such a loss!
But he wasn't a big director yet; at least not until after *Detective Chinatown 2* would he have a certain status in the film circle.
Now that Yu Mo could write such a good script,
he said: "Can I meet Yu Mo?"
"Sorry!" Unexpectedly, Tong Tong Tong Liya refused directly: "Although we are collaborating now, don't forget that we will be competitors in the future. You'd better not have any ideas about our studio's director!"
Competitors?
Chen Chen Chen Zhicheng laughed when he heard this. In his view, although Yang Mi, Watching Watching Reba, Zhao Zhao Zhao Liying, and Tong Tong Tong Liya all had great fame individually, their acting skills were lacking, and they were destined to only mix in the TV drama circle, having nothing to do with his film circle.
So he wasn't worried at all, just smiling: "Then I wish you a happy collaboration!"
Tong Tong Tong Liya couldn't be bothered to deal with him and hung up the phone directly.
Then she let out a sigh of relief.
A look of joy appeared on her beautiful face. It was done.
"Yu Mo, it's done!"
She turned to look at Yu Mo, who was sitting on the sofa, and couldn't help but hug him excitedly.
But Yu Mo pushed her away: "You'd better pay attention to your image!"
Looking at her own camisole dress, inside which she was too lazy to wear anything but a small pair of panties, Tong Tong Tong Liya didn't care: "We live right next door, what's there to avoid? I really didn't expect you to be so powerful. With one script, you made Chen Chen Chen Zhicheng agree to the collaboration so urgently!"
That's a given, please.
Laozi took the original script for *Detective Chinatown 2*, how could Chen Chen Chen Zhicheng not be satisfied.
But he wouldn't say that, just waving his hand: "A small matter!"
"Of course, don't worry!" Tong Tong Tong Liya stood beside him, smiling: "I won't let you suffer a loss. This time I will invest 20%, and I will use all the net profit earned to serve as the studio's net profit. At the end of the year, the dividends will be distributed, and *Detective Chinatown* will also carry the name of our Jade Rabbit Studio!"
Yo, this woman is quite generous.
Yu Mo was a bit surprised when he heard this.
He had wanted to use this script to make Tong Tong Tong Liya completely submit to him.
But he didn't expect her to put the studio's interests first so quickly.
However, shrugging his shoulders, Yu Mo didn't care: "Whatever you want. I suggest you'd better put in more money, lest you regret it later!"
Regret?
Pfft...
Tong Tong Tong Liya didn't care. What do I have to regret? At most, it's only 100 or 200 million!
Little did she know, the box office for *Detective Chinatown 2* this time was 3.6 billion. Just the net profit share alone would be 1.4 billion, and a 50/50 split would be 700 million!
But Yu Mo didn't care about that.
"Alright!" Stretching, Yu Mo laughed and got up: "Since your business is settled, go back to sleep. I have other things to deal with!"
"Other things? What other things?" Tong Tong Tong Liya tilted her head and couldn't help but ask.
But Yu Mo just glanced at her: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
Unexpectedly, Tong Tong Tong Liya was righteous: "How does it not have anything to do with me? I'm a shareholder of Jade Rabbit Media, aren't I!"
"Fine, fine, fine!" Yu Mo followed her lead: "Our major shareholder Tong Tong Tong Liya, Yang Mi told me that Youku has a free investment opportunity and is looking to collaborate with me. I'm going there tomorrow. If the collaboration is successful, our new movie will have free investment! How about it, do you want to go?"
He was half-joking, teasing her.
But unexpectedly, Tong Tong Tong Liya had nothing to do and was very interested: "Really? Then I definitely want to go! Anyway, I don't have anything to do lately!"
Uh, eh?
Yu Mo was stunned: "I was joking!"
But Tong Tong Tong Liya giggled: "I don't care, I'm going tomorrow anyway. Besides, me following you can be considered boosting your momentum!"
Boosting...
Yu Mo subconsciously glanced at a certain spot: "It's not really that good at boosting momentum~"
"You, pervert!" Noticing Yu Mo's gaze, Tong Tong Tong Liya's pretty face flushed, and she quickly covered her assets!
"Hmph, I'm ignoring you!"
Too lazy to deal with Yu Mo, Tong Tong Tong Liya stomped her slippers in anger and turned to go back to her apartment across the hall!
As for Yu Mo, he closed the door and continued working.
This time he was writing *Wolf Warrior 2*!
Having settled *Detective Chinatown 2*, of course, he had to move on to *Wolf Warrior 2*.
After all, one had a box office of 3.8 billion, the other 5.6 billion—they really weren't in the same league!
Once he finished this, heh, he'd invest in *The Wandering Earth*.
Then he would truly take off.
However, this time, Yu Mo was smart. He wouldn't write it in the diary.
To save that woman Yang Mi from playing any more tricks.
So he hummed a tune, returned to the study, and finished the script for *Wolf Warrior 2* first!
