This director is vindictive.

Chapter 142: The generals fought bloody battles on the battlefield, why did Your Majesty surrender first?

Professional matters should be left to professionals. Yang Mi’s matter should be left to the experienced Hongjing Law Firm.

Soon enough evidence was gathered to proceed with prosecution.

The court also responded quickly. After all, the evidence was conclusive and this incident was also very representative.

It can be said that various "indecent videos" and "indecent photos" incidents are emerging one after another in the entertainment industry, but so far there has not been any case of real legal prosecution and success.

For Hongjing Law Firm, this is also a business gap with great potential to be tapped. In addition, since it is linked to the entertainment industry, they can use this incident to heavily promote the law firm.

In fact, many celebrities in the entertainment industry are also paying attention to this matter.

Especially some popular young actresses and actors, who are famous and have many troubles with such things, but in the past everyone seemed to have tacitly used "lawyer's letter warning", and almost no one is taking legal action.

But this time, under Chen Mo's guidance, Yang Mi directly and resolutely took the legal route and sued the other party.

Moreover, it was a criminal private prosecution. The key point is that the court accepted the case and filed it!

For a time, Hongjing Law Firm received many calls from agents of celebrity artists who wanted to consult about this business within a few days.

Maybe not all cases can be accepted immediately, but it still makes them smile.

Naturally, I paid more attention to Yang Mi's case.

As Chen Mo said, the reason why those people, including some Hong Kong and Taiwan media, were so fearless in making up stories in the past was because many celebrities were concerned about protecting their reputation.

But this time, the case was really prosecuted, and there is a possibility that the person will be sent to jail, which is a bit scary.

Not only that, after Yang Mi's case was officially accepted by the court, some people on the Internet who had previously taken advantage of the situation and were sure that the video was real and that it was Yang Mi herself were scared and deleted their previous remarks as soon as possible.

Those who received many comments and received high click-through rates were even more frightened and worried all day long.

Yang Mi also quickly discovered the benefits of going through legal procedures. Although she had made a stern statement on this matter, which did make those people restrain themselves a little, it still had a negative impact on her.

But now, just look at the comments and you will know.

"I told you it was definitely fake. What about those people who were so sure it was real? Why are you so scared? Do you have the guts to continue?"

"They are all just talking big. If it's fake, it won't be real. If it's fake, will the court accept it?"

"So, if you want to know if it's true in the future, just see if the other party actually takes legal action to resolve it."

"It still has to be Chen Mo. However, with Fan Binbin in front and Yang Mi behind, I still want to say, Chen Mo, you really deserve to die! If you say this again, it doesn't matter. I'll use my head as a ball for you to kick!"

For a time, public opinion was cleared up!
Chen Mo and Guangguang were in love with each other, so the investment in "Nezha" was quickly finalized.

However, Lao Wang had no intention of letting director Chen Mo go. In fact, Yi Qiao, the person in charge of Caitiaowu Company, was also very worried about the "Nezha" issue recently.

There's no other reason, it's been almost a year. In fact, the first draft of the script for the movie "Nezha" was already out half a year ago, but it has never been finalized.

We changed it many times, but we still couldn't satisfy each other.

This is just right, Chen Mo has joined in. Chen Mo is not only a director, but also a screenwriter. The phenomenal TV series "My Love from the Star" was written by Chen Mo himself.

In addition, Chen Mo has been famous for his sharp vision since his debut, and no project has failed so far.

So, Lao Wang quickly pulled him over, wanting Chen Mo to help and give some suggestions for "Nezha".

It is not a good thing that the script of Nezha has not been finalized for a year. However, the director they found was Jiaozi, a "poor" director who really insisted on making animations.

He himself is extremely stubborn about creation, and he and his mentor Yi Qiao have argued countless times.

But no one could convince anyone else.

Chen Mo is a director, and also the most popular director at the moment. So, in Lao Wang's opinion, it would be better to let Chen Mo communicate with Director Jiaozi.

For an animated film like "Nezha", even if Chen Mo knew the complete plot, he would definitely not be able to make it if you asked him to do it.

So Chen Mo never thought about making this movie himself.

However, Chen Mo was quite curious about the process of the creation of this movie.

When they arrived at Caitiaowu Company together, Director Jiaozi and the head of Caitiaowu Company, Yi Qiao, were already waiting there.

After some courtesy.

Yi Qiao took out a thick stack of scripts and said, "Here's the original version of the Nezha script, as well as more than 20 revised versions. Director Chen, you're both the director and the screenwriter, so please take a look and give me some feedback."

Chen Mo took it curiously and picked up the original version of the "Nezha" script and started reading it.

Chen Mo, who had seen the final film, was also quite curious when looking at the first draft of the script. However, there was indeed a big gap between the first draft and the final plot of the film.

Director Jiaozi doesn't talk much, but he is not yet the Jiaozi director who will win the box office championship and break countless records in the future. He is still just a little-known "poor" animation director.

Chen Mo also saw that there were dozens of versions of Nezha's image manuscripts.

This includes the final version of the film, the image of the ugly and cute Nezha that made Chen Mo extremely familiar.

There are also many versions of some other character image manuscripts. Chen Mo is actually very unfamiliar with the production process of animated films, but when you think about it, it is impossible that he has only been polishing the script for more than a year. Some preparatory work should have started long ago.

For example, the design of the character image.

Although he didn't intend to interfere too much, given the current situation, it would be unrealistic not to interfere at all. After all, if it really took two years to finalize the script, it would be a waste of time.

In fact, the latest version of the script is not that different from the version of Nezha that Chen Mo is familiar with.

Of course Chen Mo knew that as a creator, he actually didn't like being told what to do, so the first thing he did was to pick out the most suitable character images based on his memory of the final version of the characters.

"I think these images are all very good." Chen Mo said.

Wang Changtian was fine, but Yi Qiao frowned a little, and Director Jiaozi's reaction was one of great surprise.

Because he found that the first Nezha character design draft selected by Chen Mo was the one he liked the most, but Yi Qiao thought it was too ugly.

Then he looked through the design drafts of other character images selected by Chen Mo. The more he looked, the more he felt that he thought alike.

Because the ones Chen Mo picked out were all the ones he thought were the best.

He suddenly became a little excited and asked expectantly, "Director Chen, do you really think these are the most suitable?"

"Good! For example, this picture of Nezha. Since it is a breakthrough from the previous image of Nezha, it is very good. It's okay if it's ugly. Moreover, although this picture is ugly, if you look closely, it has a kind of ugly-cute feeling, which is in line with the positioning of Nezha as the demon boy." Chen Mo said with a smile.

"Director Chen, do you have any ideas about the script and plot?" Director Jiaozi looked at Chen Mo hopefully.

Chen Mo thought about it and still felt that he could reveal some information appropriately. It is impossible for you to say that he can completely remember the plot of the original "Nezha", including the dialogues, details, etc.

But he can still provide the general direction. Since he is involved in it, he also hopes that the film can avoid some detours.

Soon, Chen Mo recounted the plot of the released version of "Nezha" based on his memory.

This time, Wang Changtian, Jiaozi and Yi Qiao were all very surprised.

Chen Mo did not get too fanciful, but made some minor adjustments based on the existing script.

The final version of "Nezha" was the product of their final joint decision. Although it may not be flawless, it is already a very complete version that can reach a balance point that everyone can accept.

"Director Chen, your reputation is well-deserved! Your insights have at least helped us avoid many detours!" Director Jiaozi said with admiration.

Chen Mo couldn't help but feel a little strange. How could this be bad? This was the version you guys finally decided on!
"I have an idea," Yi Qiao suddenly said.

"Director Chen, if possible, I wonder if you could also be credited as the screenwriter of this movie?" Yi Qiao suddenly said.

"Isn't that necessary? I just put forward some ideas based on your creation." Chen Mo shook his head.

"I also think Director Chen, you should definitely be listed as a co-writer. Not only do you provide them with excellent creative content, but more importantly, adding your name will greatly benefit the film's publicity," Wang Changtian said. Director Jiaozi nodded, "I absolutely have no objection. What you've mentioned is already very helpful to us. It's not just a name, but a genuine co-writer."

"Then let me make it clear. I can have a name in the film, but I really don't understand animation film production. At most, I can play a supporting role. When the movie is about to be released, I can cooperate with the promotion. Don't expect anything else." Chen Mo thought about it and did not continue to refuse.

Chen Mo's involvement in "Nezha" will not be too high. He has done what he can, and the rest will be left for them to worry about.

"Ghost Blows Out the Light: Mojin: The Lost Tomb" has been completed and is currently in post-production.

However, it is time to finally finalize the release date.

The release date for "Nine-story Demon Tower" has been set, and it will be released during the National Day holiday.

"I don't think it's necessary to release it at the same time as 'Nine-story Demon Tower'. Although we are all more confident in your 'Mojin: The Lost Tomb', they are still homogeneous films of the same type. Even if one defeats the other, both sides will suffer." Wanda's Ye Ning said.

"I think it's not impossible. They can be released at the same time and promoted together." Wang Changtian said with a smile.

"If we want to bundle the promotions, it doesn't necessarily have to be released at the same time. Of course, it depends on your ideas, Director Chen," said Wang Jun of Huayi with a smile.

Chen Mo thought for a moment and said, "There's no need to release them in the same period. Even a rotten boat can still have three-inch nails!"

"However, there is no need to deliberately do bundled promotions. Of course, we can scare them." Chen Mo suddenly smiled evilly.

"Scare them? Hahaha, Director Chen seems to be very confident in our film!" The three of them couldn't help laughing.

It can be said that they have high hopes for this movie. They are of course happy that Chen Mo is so confident.

"The Spring Festival period isn't an option, Director Zhou's The Mermaid has to be released!" Wang Changtian suddenly said.

Wang Jun of Huayi's expression changed for a moment. Originally, Stephen Chow had been cooperating with Huayi, but after that incident, Stephen Chow turned to Guang Guang.

However, he didn't show it too much.

In fact, Chen Mo wanted to release the film during the Spring Festival, but as Wang Changtian said, it was not suitable.

The reason why he wanted to release it during the Spring Festival was mainly because Chen Mo had a rather special promotional idea.

If it was released during the Spring Festival, the effect might indeed be better, but Chen Mo really doesn't want to touch "The Mermaid" during the Spring Festival, because it will only hurt both sides.

"By the way, Director Chen, you have to pay more attention to the promotion of 'The Ghouls' this time! Do you have any ideas?" Ye Ning suddenly said.

Wang Changtian and Wang Jun both looked at Chen Mo with some anticipation.

Chen Mo touched his nose. Oh my god, this is the trouble caused by the label of propaganda genius?

What good ideas could he have? He originally wanted to use the "Collect Five Blessings" event to promote the movie, but this would only be effective if it was released during the Spring Festival.

And Alibaba might not agree, so we gave up.

Chen Mo suddenly thought of another idea, but he didn't say it out loud for the time being, mainly because he still needed to improve it.

On the other hand, with "Nine-story Demon Tower" scheduled for the National Day holiday, many people naturally began to pay attention to the release date of another film "Mojin: The Lost Tomb".

After all, the two films can be said to be at loggerheads with each other, and they have been clashing since the beginning of filming.

The release date of "Mojin: The Lost Tomb" had actually been agreed upon long ago, but as Chen Mo said, it's totally possible to scare the other party.

As a result, news came out from somewhere that "The Ghouls" would also be released during the National Day holiday.

All of a sudden, netizens started lining up their seats to eat the melons.

"Holy crap, is this true? One or the other?"

"Two movies adapted from the same novel, released at the same time, what a perfect match!"

"Anyway, as a fan, I support 'Mojin: The Lost Tomb' without a second thought!"

"As expected of you, Professor Do, you're as tough as ever!"

Netizens were just watching the show, but Lu Chuan was getting a little restless.

If we compare Lu Chuan and Chen Mo, if it is an art film, Lu Chuan may be able to hold his own, but in a commercial film, Chen Mo can definitely beat Lu Chuan in seconds.

After all, they were sent one by one.

Moreover, Chen Mo can directly beat the box office of all Lu Chuan’s movies combined with just one movie, "Charlotte's Troubles".

So, he was really scared.

It's not just that he really has no confidence in his own movie, the key point is that the outside world almost unanimously believes that Chen Mo has won.

How could he not be nervous?
But in fact, this is really just a smokescreen. After all, one of the producers of "Nine-story Demon Tower" is China Film Group, and even China Film Group will not allow "Mojin: The Lost Tomb" to be released in the same period as "Nine-story Demon Tower".

So, the most likely possibility is that this is just a propaganda.

The reason why they didn't make any move was that they thought this was also a good publicity opportunity for "Nine-story Demon Tower".

But before they could make any move, like asking Lu Chuan to confidently express his welcome to competition and his confidence in his work, something incredible happened. Lu Chuan, for some reason, suddenly had a brainwave and posted on Weibo: "We're all from the same roots, why are we so eager to fight each other?"

Although, it was withdrawn immediately.

But this thing is not something you can just withdraw and pretend it never happened.

"Hahaha! Screenshot taken! That's a funny line! Hahaha!"

"The general is still fighting, why did His Majesty surrender?"

"God damn it, we are all from the same root, why are you so anxious to fight each other? Do you have to be so cowardly?"

"This is a bit funny. Even a fool could guess that this is impossible. I bet 50 cents that the release date for 'Mojin: The Lost Tomb' will definitely not be the National Day holiday!"

"That's right! It was released at the same time, and it was just a publicity stunt. But Lu Chuan actually took it seriously. He's incredible. Could his account have been hacked?"

For a time, netizens were happy.

Chen Mo and the others were also a little dumbfounded. Just like many netizens said, this was clearly a publicity stunt. It was just talk to scare the other party, and it was more for publicity. However, Lu Chuan's ferocious move was really funny.

For a moment, even the people from LeTV and China Film were a little confused. No, do you have to be so scared?
The key point is that after Lu Chuan posted the post and then withdrew it, "The Ghouls" officially announced the release date as soon as possible, and it will be officially released on December 12!
This time, Lu Chuan was completely dumbfounded, and the onlookers were also laughing so hard.

"Wow, this is absolutely amazing! I have to give full marks to 'Mojin: The Lost Tomb'. This deterrent power is simply amazing!"

"Who spread this news? It's too bad, isn't it? Look how scared our Lu Tailang is!"

"We're all from the same roots, why are we so eager to fight each other? I wonder if he regretted reading all eight novels at that moment?"

"You don't even have confidence in yourself, and you still want us to watch, tut tut!"

When promoting a movie, even if the director has no confidence, he will usually act confident. Otherwise, if even the director himself fails to show confidence, how can he expect everyone to have expectations for the movie?

Lu Chuan was really embarrassed. When he thought about it, he wanted to slap himself.

He originally wanted to send a message like: "Welcome to the battle" or "If you want to fight, then fight" to save face, but he quickly gave up the idea.

After all, he is not really stupid!

At the same time, netizens began to look forward to "The Ghouls", or to be more precise, Chen Mo.

What people are looking forward to is not the movie, but what kind of unique publicity Chen Mo, the publicity genius, will arrange for "The Ghouls".

After all, this is Chen Mo's signature program.
