On Weibo, not everyone was criticizing Chen Mo. Quite a few passersby were supporting him.
It was because those anti-fans kept emphasizing: It was impossible for a person without professional learning and shooting experience to make a good movie.
This sparked a lot of discussion. Who said that one had to have professional learning and shooting experience to make a movie?
If so, where did the first person to make a movie learn from?
All in all, even though Chen Mo did not attend any of the events, he did not make any statement regarding the 'collaboration' on Weibo.
However, Chen Mo's fans remained rational as usual and supported him despite the comments of the anti-fans.
However, Chen Mo was discussing the casting with Xu Zheng during the few days when the netizens were having a heated discussion.
"Are you sure you want this role?"
Ever since he met Chen Mo, Xu Zheng realized that he had lived his life in vain. There were people who were born with knowledge in this world.
Chen Mo had an amazing talent for scriptwriting. He could not help but want to abandon the script he was writing and start a new one when he tried to imagine a few classic scenes.
However, Chen Mo had even given Xu Zheng a lot of advice on the shooting techniques, editing techniques, and the casting of the movie. Xu Zheng had completely changed his worldview.
Therefore, no matter which role Chen Mo wanted, he would definitely agree to it.
"I think this role suits me quite well. There aren't many scenes, but I have a certain amount of performance ability. If I were given a role with a lot of scenes, not to mention whether I would be scolded, but at the very least, the box office earnings wouldn't be guaranteed.”
Xu Zheng burst into laughter. He had been following the news on Weibo frequently and knew that most people were talking about Chen Mo's movie.
"Don't worry, even if I don't earn money, I still want to see them shocked!”
Xu Zheng was very confident in this script. It was just a casual remark that it would not make money. He was not enthusiastic enough to use love to generate electricity.
Chen Mo joked,""I can't not make money. You promised to give me a share.”
"I think the netizens are right.”
Xu Zheng said unhappily," I was the one who pulled the investment, but I still have to hire the actors. You still have to take the screenwriter's salary and the actors 'salary. I won't be making any money!"”
With Chen Mo's strength, he was definitely qualified to get a share of the profits. However, neither Xu Zheng nor Chen Mo dared to reveal this to the public.
If people knew that Chen Mo was getting a share of the profits from the show, the entire entertainment industry would be shocked.
However, Chen Mo did not get much of the profits either. After all, other than the investors, the actors and crew members had to wait for the money. Hence, Xu Zheng and Chen Mo did not get more than 10% of the profits.
After a round of bargaining, Chen Mo promised to give Xu Zheng another piece of work that satisfied him. That was the only way he could increase the cut to five percent.
Back then, the sky-high box office earnings of " I'm Not the Drug God " had caused a huge commotion for a period of time. Many people were amazed and praised the quality of the film.
With a box office sales of over three billion yuan, excluding all taxes, the total revenue would reach more than 2.5 billion yuan!
(The tax defense system doesn't represent the actual calculation method. It's fine as long as everyone is happy.)）
In this world that lacked entertainment culture, it was not a problem for an excellent work like I'm Not the Drug God to reach the desired height.
In other words, when the movie was released, Chen Mo would earn hundreds of millions!
Speaking of which, Chen Mo had taken advantage of Xu Zheng, but Xu Zheng had taken advantage of Chen Mo as well.
If not for Chen Mo, Xu Zheng might not have been able to write I'm Not the Drug God in this world's timeline.
In addition, Chen Mo had promised to produce an excellent piece of work, so it was a sure win for Xu Zheng.
For an A-list celebrity like Xu Zheng, he would not only care about the benefits in front of him. It would be best if he could build a good relationship with Chen Mo so that they could work together in the future.
Before the casting and filming started, the two of them had already discussed how to split the money. After arguing for a while, the two of them looked at each other and then laughed.
"Stop joking. We have to find someone to shoot the movie quickly. I can't wait to see the few topics you mentioned.”
Chen Mo had only mentioned the idea of Lost on the Road, but Xu Zheng was already extremely excited.
Chen Mo did not want to drag this out for too long. He was afraid that his popularity would drop by then.
"I'll tell you a few candidates. You can get in touch with them.”
Chen Mo listed a few names in one breath. Of course, some celebrities did not exist in this world, so Xu Zheng had to have his own judgment.
"Alright, if you have nothing to do, come with me to look for her and help me check on her.”
Even if Xu Zheng was wrong, he believed that Chen Mo would choose the right actor in his own way. He had blind confidence in Chen Mo.
Chen Mo thought about it and realized that there was nothing to be busy with recently.
Ever since Zhang Zhengyue was scolded and left Weibo, very few people would jump out to oppose him.
On the other hand, Pang Long was the type of person who was not afraid of boiling water. He would disappear after he expressed his opinion, regardless of what the netizens thought of him. Chen Mo could not do anything to him.
Just as Chen Mo was about to contact Xu Zheng and the other actors, Tong Liya called him. Chen Mo picked up the call and heard Tong Liya crying,"
"Brother Mo, I was fired!"
