The Fleeting Years of Chinese Entertainment

The sky was a clear blue, the sun was shining brightly, a gentle breeze was blowing, and the air was filled with a refreshing scent, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Zhang Yimou has already selected the participants for Athens, including students from the Beijing Film Academy and the Beijing Drama Academy. At the same time, a freshman from the 03 class of the Chinese Opera Academy was also spotted by Zhang Yimou and was very fortunate to become one of the Olympic Babes.

It truly made many people envious…

For some reason, the final exams for the directing department at Beijing Film Academy were changed from the end of June to the beginning of June this year.

However, this has nothing to do with Lin Mo, since the Beijing Film Academy would never allow a student who won the Palme d'Or to fail.

Furthermore, Lin Mo's "Parasite" was also taken to a film festival by his mentor, Xie Xiaojing.

Many of the substitute teachers at the school are members of the film association, which organizes and hosts domestic film festivals and awards, including many winners of the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festivals.

Some outstanding students in school are often taken by their teachers to broaden their horizons beforehand. Having a good relationship with the teachers is one of the benefits.

Lin Mo, a student with "hard skills," was naturally no exception.

"Xiao Mo, I've submitted your film to the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival. It should win some prestigious awards. Remember to set aside time for it..."

Lin Mo almost spat out his saliva when he heard this.

How many? Are they substantial?

What kind of insane and rabid words are these?

Lin Mo never expected that he would be "taken care of" one day.

Professor Zhou, who majors in acting, was very happy. Thanks to Lin Mo, he had gained another student who could book film festivals.

With the summer vacation approaching, many teachers from the film academy have started offering training courses outside of school, which are quite expensive.

You can earn tens of thousands in just two months of courses!

After all, some families with decent financial means will usually find a training class if their children are interested in applying to film school. Therefore, training classes run by film school teachers naturally become their best choice.

Lin Mo had also heard about this, and sometimes those teachers would invite teachers from other majors to give classes on physical education, theory, art exam precautions, etc.

Lin Mo, who returned to the Beijing Film Academy to film, was also invited by some of the teachers.

After all, there are several scenes in the movie "Your Name" where the male lead is still in school.

If Liu Yifei plays Liu Ye, a high school student, then the male lead, Lin Ran, whom she plays, must be a college student.

After all, the male and female protagonists live in different time periods, with a full three years separating them.

Furthermore, the male protagonist, Lin Ran, has a part-time job in addition to attending classes, so in order to comply with domestic labor laws, Lin Ran's age must be over 18 years old.

The Beijing Film Academy is perfect; we don't even need to spend money to find those students who are just playing minor roles.

"Linzi, you rejected them all?"

Lin Mo did not accept the invitation, but Zhu Yawen, who had already officially announced the end of filming, accepted several.

"Yeah, I'm too lazy to go. I wouldn't go even if you paid me. I don't need that little bit of money; I need a lot of money!"

Lin Mo refused decisively. After all, he would rather spend his time refining his subsequent filming plans than trying to fool the students and parents who wanted to enroll at the Beijing Film Academy.

"Fine, you think you're so great, so high and mighty."

Zhu Yawen gave Lin Mo a thumbs up.

"But Linzi, their tuition is really expensive! It costs several thousand per student, tsk tsk..." Zhu Yawen said with a hint of sourness.

Lin Mo asked curiously, "How much do they pay you each time you go?"

"Hehe...you'll never guess," Zhu Yawen said with a beaming smile, "This number!"

As she spoke, Zhu Yawen made a gesture to Lin Mo.

To be honest, Lin Mo was a little surprised. Based on this remuneration, Zhu Yawen would probably earn more than he paid for a few classes.

Although Lin Mo's payment to him this time was indeed not much, it was still quite surprising.

"It's your treat today!"

"Sure, no problem. I'm only doing this because of your movie!"

Zhu Yawen agreed readily.

After filming the scenes in the mountain village for "Your Name" was completed, almost half of the actors had finished their scenes.

Da Tiantian was no exception. When the crew moved to Kyoto, she was picked up by Lu Zheng, who had arrived earlier.

"Brother Lin, if you ever have a role in the future, be sure to call me!"

Recalling Jing Tian's reluctance to part, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a sense of helplessness.

Although Da Tian Tian is sweet-looking, Lin Mo doesn't have any romantic feelings for her at all; at most, he feels like a brother taking care of his sister.

"Linzi, are you really ready to go solo?"

"What? Which company has contacted you this time? And who did they send?"

After Lin Mo finished speaking, he glanced at Zhu Yawen and immediately guessed what she meant.

Lin Mo's guess was correct, and Zhu Yawen had no intention of hiding it.

"Wang Jinghua from Huayi Brothers, Cai Yinong from Tangren Media, a manager from Rongxinda Media, and some agents like Chang Jihong..."

"Wow! The benefits are pretty good... They're all influential people. Which company do you prefer?" Lin Mo asked with a smile.

"I had no idea. I'm just a small-time actress. Who knew that so many people would extend offers to me when I went back to school?"

Zhu Yawen was also a bit confused at this point. He knew that his current treatment was inseparable from Lin Mo.

Moreover, the companies and agents who are now extending olive branches to him are also subtly trying to find out about Lin Mo.

Some people were eavesdropping and trying to persuade him to recruit Lin Mo to their side. Some even went so far as to set a price for him, promising to upgrade the agreed-upon benefits if he agreed to help those companies acquire Lin Mo.

To be honest, Zhu Yawen was having a very hard time holding back!

After all, the prices offered by those companies were indeed quite tempting.

"So...you mean you want me to help you choose one?"

Zhu Yawen nodded.

Seeing Zhu Yawen nod, Lin Mo also began to carefully recall the development of the companies he wanted to acquire from Zhu Yawen in his previous life.

"Chang Jihong and Wang Jinghua are both the kind of agents who treat their subordinates well. If I had to recommend someone, I'd suggest these two!" Lin Mo said after thinking for a while.

"Two people? Isn't Wang Jinghua from Huayi? Is there something more to this?" Zhu Yawen asked, looking puzzled.

Lin Mo nodded. "Huayi is a murky place, but there's not much I know about it. If you really want to sign with Huayi, I suggest you try to get the contract under Wang Jinghua's name!"

Zhu Yawen seemed to understand only partially, "What about Rong Xinda's other companies?"

"Forget about them, they have no future."

"I'll think about it... After all, I'll be a junior soon, which is practically the end of the year."

Zhu Yawen has a high level of awareness. For Beijing Film Academy, the third year is really no different from graduation, so of course the sooner you make a name for yourself, the better.
