This director is vindictive.

Chapter 187 How to make them like sisters?
Sleeping together under the same blanket is perhaps one of the greatest desires in every man's heart.

Of course, Chen Mo was just daydreaming; he would be grateful if they didn't actually put him in a chaotic mess.

But you know what, if, really, if what netizens are saying is true, and we actually get all of them together to make a movie...

Especially since they play sisters in this drama, so before filming, shouldn't they experience it together and build up their relationship?

Wouldn't that provide the most legitimate reason?

They're like sisters! Just thinking about it makes Chen Mo realize that if he could really do that, he'd be willing to let the movie lose hundreds of millions!

Just, is this possible?
Meanwhile, online discussions about "Chen Mo and his female confidantes appearing together in a scene" have reached a climax.

In particular, with the "lucky girl" who recently became famous for "taking off her clothes" and is the hope of the whole village, Yang Chaoyue also offered a suggestion.

"They could totally star together in 'Sunny'! Let them develop a sisterly bond on screen, oh my god, the more I think about it, the more excited I get!"

And guess what?

Many netizens thought Yang Chaoyue's suggestion was fantastic.

What's the point of stories like "Palace Intrigue" or "Tang Bohu and His Wives"? They're all about palace intrigue or domestic power struggles.
If we could get these girls together and put on a show of being best friends, that would be absolutely amazing!

"As expected of you, Chen Mo personally nurtured this lucky girl, this suggestion is fantastic!"

"Sunny Sisters, wow, lucky girl, you really love Chen Mo! You're even starting to worry about your idol's personal life, turning them all into girlfriends, it's outrageous."

"To be honest, this suggestion really has a chance of being realized! Putting everything else aside, just because they are Chen Mo's confidantes, I would go see this movie even if it's terrible!"

"If we really want to make a film, we can even crowdfund it, haha!"

"I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to see how close the sisters are!"

"If he can really do that, then from now on, Chen Mo will truly be a role model for countless men!"

"If this 'lucky girl' can actually make wishes come true, then the value of your 'lucky girl' title will absolutely explode!"

Chen Mo, of course, also saw these discussions.

After all, they've already tagged him.

Believe it or not, Chen Mo was actually somewhat tempted!
This is much more reliable than any palace intrigue or stories about Tang Bohu and his wives, right?
Even if Chen Mo really wanted them to make this kind of movie, he wouldn't make a drama about fighting and killing each other, right?
Isn't that just making trouble for yourself? What, do you think their palace intrigue skills aren't good enough or what?
And "Sunny Sisters" is really good!
Why? Because this really coincides with Chen Mo's thoughts!
Look at "Sunny," the seven sisters in it are all real sisters!
To act in this kind of movie, shouldn't we first build rapport with each other?

As they acted, they actually became sisters. Cough cough, wouldn't that mean Mom wouldn't have to worry about my backyard getting into trouble anymore!

"Sunny Sisters? You really want us to act together?" Fan Binbin looked at Chen Mo with a strange expression.

Man, thy name is greed!
That scoundrel is a real scoundrel! How could he even think of something like that?

As expected, like idol, like fans. Chen Mo's fans are just too...
However, Fan Binbin suddenly felt that if the girls really went to film "Sunny Sisters" together, it would be hard for the movie not to be a big hit!

As netizens have said, the appeal lies in the hype itself, and the fact that these women are among the most popular actresses in the entertainment industry right now.

This lineup is absolutely luxurious. If you add Chen Mo, a top-notch director, then this movie has great potential!
Since they're all in the entertainment industry, she doesn't have any concerns about this. Besides, there's no need to bury her head in the sand; everyone online seems to know the truth.

"Something's not right!" Fan Binbin suddenly became suspicious.

"What's wrong?" Chen Mo couldn't help but feel a little guilty, after all, his sudden idea was purely motivated by impure motives.

“There were seven in ‘Sunny Sisters’! You only have six. Tell me honestly, who else is there?” Fan Binbin couldn’t help but become a little suspicious.

Chen Mo was immediately dumbfounded.

What are you thinking about?!

"Six or seven doesn't make much difference. Guess who it is, Liu Tianxian? She seems to be quite to your liking, and she just broke up with her Korean boyfriend. However, you two don't seem to have much interaction."

Liu Shishi? No, that's not right either, she's already married and has children!

Tang Yan? No, that's not right either, she seems to be taken too!

"It can't be that lucky girl, can it?" Fan Binbin guessed wildly, counting on his fingers.

"Stop guessing, no, really no!" Chen Mo said helplessly.

"Okay, I was just kidding! But you really want to film 'Sunny Sisters'?" Fan Binbin looked at Chen Mo and couldn't help but laugh heartily, then asked with some surprise.

"The main thing is that with this gimmick, as long as the movie isn't particularly bad or terrible, it'll be very promising!" Chen Mo said with a smile.

Of course, he would never reveal his true thoughts.

"Hehe, man, you wouldn't be thinking of making us all really like sisters, would you?" Fan Binbin hit the nail on the head, but Chen Mo would definitely not admit it.

The movie "Sunny" is very famous.

One of the main reasons why the Korean version of "Sunny" became a classic among youth films is that it uses a parallel timeline to create a stark contrast between the two protagonists: in their youth, the protagonists are ignorant, fearless, passionate, and wild, and have all sorts of dreams; but in middle age, they compromise with reality for various reasons, and their past dreams have long been forgotten.

It is this contrast between the two timelines that resonates strongly with the audience, allowing them to see themselves reflected in the characters.

The essence of "Sunny" lies in reminiscing about youth by contrasting the protagonists' different states in two different periods. Therefore, the middle-aged storyline is very important and by no means dispensable.

Of course, if they were to actually film it, Fan Binbin and the others would definitely play middle-aged best friends.

Actually, there will be domestic remakes, but of course, that will have to wait a few years.

It's just that the remake was terrible.

If Chen Mo really wants to remake it, he is confident that it can't possibly be worse than the original version, right?

The reason why "Sunny" features seven sisters or seven princesses instead of six or five is because...

There are actually some rules to follow!

Look closely, whether it's five or six, it doesn't feel as good as seven!
Cough cough, does that mean I really have to find another one?
Putting that aside for now, Chen Mo did seriously consider the feasibility of remaking this movie.

Then he approached his female confidantes one by one to subtly inquire, and to his surprise, they all expressed interest.

That's settled then. From a purely commercial perspective, since netizens have already brought up this topic, and given his relationship with his several female confidantes, it's practically obvious. So, if they were to make a movie with them as the female leads, they really wouldn't need to do much in terms of promotion.

Because the hype itself is already too great!

That's what true fairness is all about!
Of course, Chen Mo wasn't naive enough to think that the girls could actually be like sisters, but while that might not be possible in reality, it was still okay in the movies.

Chen Mo is a man of action. He immediately instructed Shengshi Pictures to send people to contact the Koreans and buy the remake rights to the movie.

Since we've already made the decision, even if we don't start filming right away, we can still generate some buzz.

So, you are the lucky girl!

For the first time ever, Chen Mo circled Yang Chaoyue and said, "Great idea!"

Then he even liked that Weibo post.

What excited netizens even more was that Chen Mo's female confidantes then liked Yang Chaoyue's Weibo post suggesting that they film "Sunny Sisters".

"Holy crap, did the lucky girl's wish really come true?"

"What's Chen Mo trying to do? You actually dare to film this?"

"What's outrageous is that they all liked it!" "So here's the question: there are seven princesses in 'Sunny Sisters,' but Chen Mo only has six. What about the last one?"

"Upstairs, do you even listen to what you're saying? What do you mean Chen Mo only has six?"

"Only six?"

"Six is ​​still too few?"

"Honestly, I don't even have one girlfriend yet. Six, and you're using 'only' to describe it? Isn't that a bit too much?"

"Stop arguing. There are only six princesses now. Are you suggesting that Chen Mo should try again and find another one?"

This generation of netizens who are just watching the drama are really outrageous.

Damn it, they actually started looking for someone for Chen Mo, that old scumbag.

"I think Liu Tianxian is pretty good, she's Chen Mo's type!"

"Yeah, it's better than letting that Korean guy get away with it, right?"

"Actually, it would be great if we could get all three beauties from the Legend of Sword and Fairy together!"

"Upstairs, Chen Mo may be a scumbag, but he doesn't steal married women, okay? Tang Yan is about to get married, and Liu Shishi is already married. At least before they break up or get divorced, I wouldn't recommend it!"

"Hey, it seems like we're talking about the seventh female lead in 'Sunny,' okay? What are you thinking?"

"Is there a difference? What woman could resist a succubus like Chen Mo?"

"Please, Chen Mo has almost wiped out all the post-80s actresses in the entertainment industry. Wouldn't it be better to leave some for ourselves?"

Chen Mo was speechless; these netizens were really going too far.

But there are even more outrageous ones.

Despite the many people criticizing Chen Mo as a scumbag for monopolizing so many resources, he still deserves recognition.

Not to mention that many female celebrities in the entertainment industry secretly criticize women like Fan Binbin.

But in reality, it's all envy, jealousy, and hatred!
Men want to take their place, and women want to do the same, even just join in!
After all, Chen Mo was genuinely wealthy and very generous.

The key point is, look at Chen Mo's several female confidantes, their careers have also been incredibly successful thanks to Chen Mo's help!

What's wrong with a man like that being a little more affectionate?
Aside from a marriage certificate, Chen Mo gave him almost everything he could!

And look at those men and women in the entertainment industry, so what if they're married?
So, the result is.

Many female celebrities actually joined in the fun.

They all volunteered themselves!

They were just short of confessing their feelings.

But ironically, everyone thinks this is normal.

Why? Because if these female celebrities were to fawn over other directors, they might actually be criticized and called shameless or pretentious.

But when applied to Chen Mo, it miraculously seemed quite reasonable to everyone.

Why? Because age is one factor; Chen Mo is young!

Furthermore, although Chen Mo has so many female confidantes, legally speaking, he is truly single!

At the same time, he is rich and handsome!

It's fair to say that, aside from being a bit too faithful, Chen Mo is practically the perfect man in the eyes of many women!

"Holy crap, why don't I find anything wrong with these female celebrities who volunteered themselves? Is the world too crazy, or am I too crazy?"

"No problem, I'm a man, but I also think there's nothing wrong with it! Because as a man, Chen Mo is someone everyone would love to replace!"

"Don't be too strict about the important things, but don't be too particular about the minor things! I understand!"

"It may sound harsh, but can a marriage certificate really be worth hundreds of millions?"

"At least there's no need to worry about him cheating, because he wasn't a one-track chameleon to begin with, lol!"

In fact, the remake of "Sunny" is still in its early stages, and nothing is certain yet.

However, many people have already begun to work on this issue.

The main point is that if this movie were actually made, and if Chen Mo and his female confidantes really starred in it, then it would definitely be a very promising film.

And most importantly, if Chen Mo's female friends in "Sunny Sisters" were to be portrayed, they could only be the adult versions of his female friends.

And then there are those girlfriends from our school days.

For countless new-generation actresses in the entertainment industry, this is simply the best ladder to success!

If it were just one or two roles, the opportunities might be fewer, but seven in total! That makes a completely different story!

Of course, "Sunny" is not an easy movie to act in; many of the scenes involving the teenagers require acting skills.

For example, in the film, the "Seven Princesses" and another group of delinquent girls arrange a fight. The female lead is afraid of the fight and initially trembles. However, she accidentally pretends to be possessed by a ghost, scaring away the delinquent girls. The plot is unexpected yet logical, very funny, and can be considered a memorable scene.

In the previous Chinese version of "Seven Princesses", the older ones were actually fine, but the most irresistible one was the younger version of "Seven Princesses"!
In no time, the number of views and plays for "Sunny Sisters" on the Internet skyrocketed.

This also shows that if Chen Mo really wants to make this movie, then at least, he doesn't need to worry about generating buzz in the early stages.

Moreover, remaking a classic foreign film like "Sunny" and doing it well is no easy task.

Because remakes in foreign countries always face the issue of localization. Due to the differences between the two countries in terms of culture, environment, and historical background, and the fact that many original stories are based on their own social environment, localization will require a lot of adjustments. If handled properly, it will improve the audience's viewing experience, but if handled improperly, it will make the film feel awkward.

For example, the Chinese version of "Midnight Diner" is a typical example of failed localization. The show simply transplanted a Japanese-style diner from Japan to China, and even the male lead's attire was Japanese-style. The food was localized, though—tea-soaked rice was replaced with Uni-President pickled cabbage instant noodles, clearly for advertising purposes. The jarring incongruity is palpable even through the screen. Wouldn't it have been better to replace the Japanese restaurant with a typical Chinese barbecue stall?
The same applies to "Sunny Sisters".

While the domestically produced film *Sunny Sisters* made considerable efforts in localization—setting its childhood in the 97 handover of Hong Kong and incorporating popular songs, retro school uniforms, roller skating rinks, rock 'n' roll dreams, and martial arts novels—and its middle-aged story in modern times with elements like online influencers and jianbing (Chinese crepes), the localization unfortunately remained superficial. It failed to effectively integrate with the plot and didn't fundamentally address the awkwardness of transplanting the Korean storyline into a Chinese social context.

A typical example is a famous scene in the sitcom *Sunny*—a massive street brawl. The main characters fight with delinquent girls in the street, while simultaneously, demonstrators and police maintaining order also clash, resulting in a hilarious and absurd four-way battle. The original *Sunny* was set against the backdrop of the Gwangju Uprising in South Korea, a period of painful social change for the country. This scene was designed based on South Korea's unique national circumstances and cannot be directly transplanted to other countries.

Even if Chen Mo were to make the changes, he wouldn't have any particularly good alternatives or localization ideas for the time being.

Of course, even if this movie were to be made, it certainly wouldn't be something that could be done in the short term.

The 20th film he's working on hasn't even started filming yet.

However, this could be considered as his next film project, but there's no rush for now.

Chen Mo has almost finished writing the script for "Article 20", and the first draft is complete.

He naturally attached far more importance to this film than to a movie like "Sunny".

"Article 20" is also a secondary creation by Chen Mo, and Chen Mo's ambition for this film is much greater than that for "Major Events in Life".

For "Article 20", Chen Mo specially invited lawyer Yin Ming from Hongjing Law Firm to serve as his legal advisor, and also hired a real prosecutor to serve as a character consultant for the film.

After all, Chen Mo didn't want to make things unclear like the original "Article 20" in terms of details and procedures!
