This director is vindictive.

Chapter 170 Today is a good day, everyone you think about will die
Chen Mo's ranking on the billionaire list is definitely a bombshell for the entertainment industry.

In fact, there are many directors who are bosses in the entertainment industry.

Many directors have their own companies and make a lot of money.

But which of those directors didn’t achieve success after years of hard work?

More importantly, which one of them is as young and handsome as Chen Mo?

Although Chen Mo has made his relationship with several female stars public this time, it is still so tempting.

Just like what netizens have said before, many female celebrities seem to aspire to marry into a wealthy family, but what is the reality? Is marrying into a wealthy family really that good?

Does marrying into a wealthy family mean having hundreds of millions of dollars at your disposal?

"The key is, I don't need to serve my parents-in-law, I don't need to be humble, and I don't need to quit the entertainment industry!"

"It's definitely still necessary to be humble, but there's no need to retreat from the circle!"

"The key is, in the entertainment industry, they have transformed themselves into people with strong backing!"

Chen Mo didn't expect that this trend would be so big.

Of course, it is mainly due to the value of tens of billions of assets and real, visible shares.

However, Chen Mo found that he had shot himself in the foot. He had just given out hundreds of millions to each person, but these female demons were all greedy and actually asked him to give out hundreds of millions again. This time, even Jing Tian, ​​who was usually the most well-behaved, was no exception.

What could Chen Mo do? He could only donate generously.

Of course there are benefits, that is, he learned a lot of new knowledge.

In fact, for a female star of Fan Binbin's level, her own wealth is not small, but Chen Mo's behavior represents an attitude.

Sometimes sincerity is not about what you say, but what you do!

In fact, the most direct impact of this incident is that the people around them have completely different attitudes towards them when they are filming and participating in programs.

Although they were all Mo girls before and the rumors were everywhere, there was no solid evidence after all, and Chen Mo did not admit it. Of course, the key point is that many people's impression of Chen Mo before was just that he was a relatively powerful director, which is completely different from a billionaire tycoon.

But now it’s different. That list of shareholders can be said to be equivalent to Chen Mo’s seal.

They are now taken and have backers, and Chen Mo is known for his vengeance, so no one wants to offend him because of such a small matter.

Moreover, giving shares as gifts is much better than giving other things. Take a look at a certain wealthy man in Hong Kong Island, who is known as a star harvester. He always gives away luxury houses and other things. But to put it bluntly, in the eyes of most people, those female stars are just his playthings.

But it was completely different for Chen Mo.

When you give away shares, you are giving away status and affirmation.

In fact, this also has a lot to do with Chen Mo himself. If you see a female star being hugged by a director, especially if she is old, bald, or ugly, anyone who sees it will think that it is a joke! But Chen Mo is different. If he hugs a female star, it is a perfect match. This is the difference.

So this is still a world where looks matter!

In fact, the disturbances in the outside world did not interfere much with Chen Mo. After the financing was settled, he began to practice in seclusion.

Just like what he said to others, as a person, you have to find something to do. It's rare that he has this hobby, so it has nothing to do with how much wealth he has.

As for the script, Chen Mo still used the name "Life Events". As for the content, he combined the two movies "Life Events" and "Departures". The main line is "Departures", but the style is "Life Events"!
However, it has abandoned some of the flaws in "Life Events", especially the various forced coincidences and the last thirty minutes of lame tail, which were forcibly arranged for the sake of sensationalism.

Chen Mo's version of "Life Events" is more inspired by Lao Qi in terms of character setting. It is not an exaggeration to say that Lao Qi is the prototype of this movie.

This is basically the first draft of the script. As for whether there will be any changes in the future, Chen Mo has not thought about it yet.

It can be said that "Life Events" is a semi-original work. For this reason, he is not very sure, but he actually doesn't care that much.

Even if you mess up, it's still a failure experience.

Then there's the issue of casting.

As for the male lead in "Life Events", Chen Mo felt that the original Zhu Yulong was quite suitable, mainly because the male lead he designed needed to have a bit of ruffian spirit.

Chen Mo did not make any exceptions for the funeral industry, professional mourners, etc. It is impossible for young people to really like this industry on their own initiative.

After all, people living in this world will always be influenced by society. It is impossible for them to be so indifferent and turn a deaf ear to the voices of the outside world.

This industry is not suitable for young people, and it can be said that no one of any age group will actively like it.

Even for those who have been in this industry for many years, this may not be the case.

Of course, movies also need to be logical. If you don't like it, then why make it? This requires a reason, a reason that at least seems reasonable.

The protagonist in "Departures" was unemployed, and this profession paid higher wages than other industries, so he started out purely for the money.

However, the domestic situation and environment are completely different from those abroad.

So we have to change it. In "Life Events", Chen Mo always feels that the setting for the male protagonist is a bit weird.

Therefore, half of his setting was based on Lao Qi. He has been exposed to this industry since he was a child, but because of this, he dislikes this industry even more.

The reason why Chen Mo was forced to take over was that he arranged a car accident package for the protagonist's parents. Because they were injured in the car accident and at the request of their old father, they had to take over the family business.

However, playing this role well is much more difficult than the original version.

Because Chen Mo also added the mourning scene, the male protagonist not only has to experience life, but also has to experience professional mourning.

For this reason, if Zhu Yulong wants to play this role well, he must make great sacrifices.

"Director Chen!" Zhu Yulong was called over by Chen Mo.

He was quite excited. After all, although he had been quite popular in recent years, his roles were mostly limited to TV dramas. He had rarely acted in movies.

Moreover, this is Chen Mo's movie. It can be said that not only the female stars, but also the male actors are eager to see it.

"My new play, the male lead, how about it? Are you interested?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.

"Of course I'm interested. It's my honor!" Zhu Yulong said quickly.

"Don't answer too quickly. Take a look at the script first. Well, the script is just a draft. There may be some changes during the actual filming, but it will be basically the same." Chen Mo said as he handed him a script.

Zhu Yulong took the script with both hands and began to read it.

After reading it, Zhu Yulong finally understood why Chen Mo told him not to answer too quickly.

On the one hand, it is the subject matter, and on the other hand, it is also a professional issue.

Funeral director, part-time mourner!

In fact, the latter is the most important.

Because the setting is that the male protagonist has been arranged by his grandfather to cry at funerals since he was a child.

So this role is really not that easy to play.

Because this thing is completely different from the crying scenes in movies and TV shows.

"I'm fine!" However, despite this, Zhu Yulong still couldn't miss such an opportunity.

Chen Mo was not too surprised by this.

"If there's no problem, then this matter will be settled. Let your agent go to Shengshi Pictures to discuss the details. However, you have to be mentally prepared, because next, I will arrange for you to meet the prototype of our movie, a childhood friend of mine. At the same time, I will arrange for you to stay with him and experience life. I may even arrange for you to really experience the job of crying at a funeral." Chen Mo said with a smile.

"No problem for me!" Zhu Yulong nodded in acceptance.

"That's good!" Chen Mo nodded.

Chen Mo quickly contacted Lao Qi.

"What the hell? Based on me? Are you serious?" Lao Qi was stunned when he heard Chen Mo say that the movie would be based on him.

"What? Is there any problem?" Chen Mo asked.

"No problem, what do you need me to do?" Old Seven shook his head and asked. "Here, this is the male lead, Zhu Yulong. Don't say I didn't take care of you, buddy. I specially hired a handsome guy to play you. How about it? That's nice of you, right?" Chen Mo said with a smile.

"Hello, hello, should I thank you? I am handsome too, right?" Lao Qi first greeted Zhu Yulong, and then said unhappily.

"Next, you'll need to help take care of him. He'll experience life with you here. Well, when necessary, you can arrange for him to have a cry." Chen Mo said.

"No way? Is it such a big deal? If a big star becomes someone's filial son and grandson, his fans will tear me apart if they find out?" Lao Qi was stunned.

"Seventh Brother, please take care of me. I am an actor first, and a star second. You don't have to worry about this at all. My fans will only think that I am dedicated and won't think there is anything wrong with this." Zhu Yulong said quickly.

"If you have no problem, then of course I have no problem either. Tsk tsk, I'll have to ask for sky-high appearance fees from you." Lao Qi looked at Zhu Yulong. This wasn't a problem at all. This was pure glittering gold!
If a big star is a filial son and grandson to your grandfather and grandmother, then they can really rest in peace, right?
"How about it? Do you want me to help promote your master of mourning?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.

"Come on, what my industry needs least is fancy publicity. What good will publicity do? Do I have to kill a few people first? Otherwise, I won't be of any use!" Lao Qi rolled his eyes.

"Is there any work recently? If it's convenient, take us to see it." Chen Mo asked.

"Yes, there is a show in Xihu Village tomorrow. If you don't mind, you can go with us." Lao Qi said.

Don't get me wrong, the West Lake Village that Lao Qi is talking about is completely different from the famous West Lake.

Simply put, there is more than one village called Xihu Village in Chen Mo's hometown.

"The countryside? Then I really have to go and take a look. But, wouldn't it be inconvenient?" Chen Mo still asked one more question. After all, funerals are still very particular.

"It's okay. This time he died of old age. The old man passed away at the age of 90. The scene was very lively." The seventh brother said with a smile.

Chen Mo nodded: "Then it really is a white wedding!"

Of the so-called red and white weddings, only the death of a person at a natural age is considered a happy funeral. A natural death is generally defined as a person reaching the end of their lifespan and dying naturally. A person who dies naturally at a natural age is considered a happy funeral, passing away peacefully without illness or disaster, as if in sleep. This is also what we call a "good death."

This kind of funeral is usually lively and the family members will not be too sad.

Of course, although it is a happy funeral, it is still a funeral after all, and there are still many things to pay attention to.

Chen Mo left Zhu Yulong directly with Lao Qi, on the one hand because he wanted him to get into the role as soon as possible. After all, the time Chen Mo left for him to experience life was limited.

He has a date with his own lady, so he definitely won't be here with her.

However, he still wants to go and take a look tomorrow.

"Do I need to experience life too?" Zhao Liying was also arranged by Chen Mo to play the leading female role in this play. Of course, the so-called leading female role is actually a supporting female role. In this play, the leading male role is the core.

"There's no need. Your role is more of a supporting actress than a heroine, and you're not in the funeral industry." Chen Mo shook his head.

To be honest, he actually thinks he is a bit "perverted"!
Although there are no intimate scenes in this drama, Zhao Liying plays the male protagonist's "girlfriend".

"However, there will be a happy funeral in the countryside tomorrow. If you are interested, you can go with me to see it." Chen Mo said.

"Okay!"

The next morning, Chen Mo took Zhao Liying to meet up with Lao Qi and the others.

When they arrived at the place, even Chen Mo was a little surprised because it was so lively.

The host was obviously quite wealthy and he even invited a troupe of actors to perform, making the scene quite lively.

Unlike other funeral scenes, many people here were talking and laughing, which surprised Chen Mo, Zhao Liying, and Zhu Yulong.

However, thinking about what Lao Qi said, the deceased was a 90-year-old man, and he died of old age, so there is really no need to be so sad.

It also opened Chen Mo's eyes.

Because the owner of this house not only invited a troupe to perform, but also invited people to perform, and a big banquet was held in the village.

The scene is called a spectacular!
If you know it’s a funeral, those who don’t would think it’s a festival!
The seventh brother, however, was not surprised and said, "What's the big deal? I held a funeral for a centenarian before, and that was even more spectacular. There were two hundred tables for the buffet, and they even invited many celebrities to perform."

"However, this performance also has its own particularities, and it is usually the favorite of the elderly during their lifetime," Lao Qi explained.

"Have you ever seen those people dancing on graves as they say on the Internet?" Chen Mo asked curiously.

Old Seven couldn't help but laugh and shook his head. "That's pure idiocy. Even though it's a happy funeral, it's still a person who has passed away. It's okay to be a little festive, but you can't demonize it like that! If you really do that, you'll get beaten up in minutes."

"Anyway, I haven't encountered it, but I have heard of it." said Lao Qi.

At this moment, Lao Qi was suddenly stunned, and Chen Mo and the other two were also stunned.

Because a very familiar melody sounded, which was nothing.

After all, when it comes to singing, the songs they sing are definitely popular, but the melody is a big problem.

"Fuck! Who is so stupid? Isn't this just nonsense?" Lao Qi was immediately furious.

"You guys be careful, something will probably happen soon. Stay hidden and watch the fun. I have to go over there." Lao Qi said with a serious expression.

At this moment, familiar lyrics rang out.

"Happy gongs and drums beat out the joy of every year, beautiful dances bring joy every day, the oil paint of the sun paints today red, and the flowers of life are our smiles."

You know what, although the singer we invited is not a famous singer, he sang quite well.

However, the scene wasn't that good.

Chen Mo could see everyone present, yes, almost everyone, including the family members who were welcoming guests and the people who were there for the banquet. They were all staring in amazement at the male singer on the stage, who was wearing an extremely festive bright red suit and singing loudly.

"Today is a good day. Everything you wish for will come true. Tomorrow will be a good day too. Let's open the door and welcome the spring breeze."

While everyone was confused, the person on the stage was singing with great enthusiasm.

Chen Mo could only say that strange things happen every year, but there are especially many this year. It is something he has never seen before in his life.

I guess this matter will become a hot topic in the news.

However, many people soon realized what was happening, and curses were heard one after another.

Suddenly, someone threw something onto the stage with a bang, which scared the singer.

But a magical thing happened. I don’t know who invited this singer, but his professionalism is truly admirable.

Even though his things were being smashed, he showed no intention of stopping and continued singing.

"Fuck! Awesome!"

Chen Mo couldn't help but swear.

In fact, at this moment, not only Chen Mo felt that the man on the stage was awesome and stubborn, but the people eating at the table were also speechless about this stubborn and courageous guy.

Are you still singing?
At this moment, I don’t know if the host reacted and turned off the speakers in time.

Chen Mo originally thought that this farce was about to end.

However, sometimes things are just so outrageous and bizarre.

The person on the stage, without the sound system and accompaniment, still refused to give up and was still singing.

Chen Mo felt that there were only a few possibilities. One was that he wanted money over his life, or someone specifically paid a large sum of money to let this person cause trouble.

Either this singer is stupid and not afraid of death, or he came here deliberately to make trouble.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the singer is a fool.

Sure enough, the next moment, someone got so angry that he rushed onto the stage with a chair in his hand and smashed it directly on the singer's head.

His head was broken and blood flowed in an instant.

The key point is that the man was still not satisfied and hit her a few more times.
