Chapter 309

~7 min read 1,221 words

One *Avengers 3*, raking in 21. billion at the box office!

If he could help, this film might just be saved.

Therefore, in desperation, Wu Jing had no choice but to find him!

……

But Yu Mo was happy when he heard the whole story!

Because he never dreamed that such a good film would be delivered to his doorstep!

Just kidding, in his past life, *The Wandering Earth* had a box office of 4. billion during the New Year period!

It almost broke the box office record of *Wolf Warrior 2* back then!

However, the second one was steady and went absolutely crazy!

The two films combined had over ten billion in box office!

It could be said that it was quite decent!

Yu Mo was originally considering when to take on this film and find an excuse to arrange it!

This was great; it was delivered to his doorstep.

……

"Um, Yu Mo, don't worry!" On the other end of the phone, Wu Jing didn't know Yu Mo's thoughts!

Fearing Yu Mo would misunderstand, he hurriedly said: "Er, although this film definitely can't compare to the special effects of your *Avengers 3*, this is the first domestic sci-fi film. I've read the content, and it's still very good. As long as you are willing to invest, I think it shouldn't..."

"No problem!"

But on the other end of the phone, before Wu Jing could finish, he was directly interrupted by Yu Mo.

So, Wu Jing was stunned when he heard this.

What...

Ag... agreed?!!

……

So straightforward?

Well, Wu Jing thought he might need to prepare quite a few arguments.

He was even prepared to be rejected by Yu Mo.

After all, the special effects in *Avengers 3* were already in the "ceiling" series internationally.

And there was *Aquaman* about to be released; just from the investment of over a billion, one knew it absolutely couldn't be bad.

Why would he choose to invest in a domestic sci-fi film?

But he didn't expect this guy to agree without hesitation!

"Yu Mo..."

Wu Jing was a bit stunned, but couldn't help saying: "Um, do you want to reconsider? I need to tell you about some of the risks of this film, so you don't lose money later..."

But unexpectedly, Yu Mo laughed heartily: "It's fine. Since you've asked, let alone sixty million, even if it were a hundred million, I'd be happy to help. After all, we're good brothers!"

"Yu Mo!"

At this, Wu Jing was completely stunned; he didn't expect Yu Mo to be so unreserved toward him.

He was moved for a moment.

But he still guaranteed: "Don't worry, Yu Mo, I can guarantee that this film won't lose money. Even if it does, I'll sell my house to pay you back!"

"Hey, that won't be necessary!"

But Yu Mo waved his hand immediately upon hearing this.

Just kidding, if you sell your house to pay me back later, then if the film makes money, it won't have anything to do with me!

Therefore, he chuckled: "We're brothers, don't be so polite! How about this, is sixty million enough? If it's not, I can invest a bit more!"

Sure enough...

"Er, um, Yu Mo!" Wu Jing heard this and actually hesitated, only saying after a long while: "Actually, the investors have been wanting to withdraw that 120 million investment... but we tried our best to keep it, but they're still bickering!"

Yo, that's even better!

Hearing this, Yu Mo was even more willing, directly saying: "Then stop bickering. I'll invest 180 million, and you can let those investors withdraw!"

"Really..."

Wu Jing was even more excited!

You have to know, these investors were now in a dilemma and were already on the verge of bankruptcy. If they got that 120 million back, they might have a chance to turn things around.

But if it was all invested in *The Wandering Earth* and it flopped, they would be completely finished!

Therefore, he hurriedly said: "Then Yu Mo, if you really agree, you can fully invest the total of 180 million!"

"Including Guo Fan and the others, plus my 50 million investment, that's a total of 230 million!"

If it makes money, you take 80% of the box office profits, and we take 20%!"

……

"That won't be necessary!"

But Yu Mo knew very well that in life, you can't be that ruthless. If you fleece them dry, who will cooperate with you in the future?

So he said: "I'll take 70%, that's enough!"

"Okay!"

Wu Jing hurriedly said: "Alright, I'll go notify Guo Fan, let's sign the contract directly!"

"Can do!"

After chatting a bit more, Yu Mo hung up the phone, then sat in the boss's chair and hummed.

In his past life, *The Wandering Earth 1* had 4. billion in box office. After deducting theater chains, taxes, and costs, it could make at least 2 billion!

70% of 2 billion is 1. billion!

Huge profit! Not bad, not bad!

Not to mention there's *Wandering Earth 2*!

It looks like I'm going to get rich this time!

……

However, just as Yu Mo was secretly gloating, suddenly, a stunning face leaned in curiously, and those charming big eyes blinked!

It gave Yu Mo a fright. He came back to his senses and immediately pretended to be serious and frowned.

"Woah, what are you..."

"Heh..." Yang Mi pursed her lips and said: "Look at your sneaky happy look, it's like you scammed someone out of a million. What's the situation, you're so happy!"

What situation?

Yu Mo certainly wouldn't say he was about to get rich.

He just pretended to be indifferent and smiled: "Nothing, Wu Jing invested in a film recently, he's very optimistic about it, but he's short on money, so he wanted to ask for my help. He's short quite a bit, so I'm just helping out!"

"Is that so..."

But Yang Mi was very interested: "What kind of film is it, that it needs 180 million!"

"Sci-fi film, domestic!"

Yu Mo said.

"Domestic?" But Yang Mi pouted when she heard this. In her view, domestic sci-fi had no future: "Don't you know the domestic sci-fi industry is very poor? And you're still helping!"

"I know!" But Yu Mo said: "Wu Jing is my good brother. I made so much from *Wolf Warrior 2* last time, and he's asking for my help, can I not help!"

That made sense!

She nodded slightly. You have to know that from *Wolf Warrior 2* alone, Yu Mo had made a full 4 billion!

Putting it that way, investing one or two hundred million wasn't much, after all, he had helped him make so much money.

……

Therefore, Yang Mi nodded and said: "Alright then, I'll have Chen Xue prepare this investment later!"

"Hey, that won't be necessary!" But unexpectedly, Yu Mo pretended to be serious and said: "We don't know if this film will make or lose money yet. For personal reasons, I'll pay out of my own pocket, don't lose the studio's money later!"

Damn...

But Yang Mi widened her beautiful eyes upon hearing this.

She looked at Yu Mo with some disbelief.
