Chapter 1511: He Is My Son (84)
Mo Zhi frowned and sneered, “Well then, tell us about a bigger project! Let me tell you, although many films are looking for investors, the good films are certainly not lacking investors. Don’t you try to pull wool over our eyes with some small-time film.”
All the senior management staff agreed with his remark.
“Exactly, it must not be a niche film, or a run-of-the-mill commercial production.”
“Ultimately, our TV and Film City’s first investment project has got to be an upmarket project. Otherwise, it would takes us in a bad direction for the future.”
“…”
Everyone commented on this while Gao Feng, who was sitting among them, frowned.
Someone in the group asked him in a low voice, “Gao Feng, what are your thoughts?”
The man sneered coldly.
Everyone knew that recently, there had indeed been no other film better positioned than Director Li’s film, from an investment perspective.
This Mo Xicheng, did he think that as long as he pumped funds into a film, it would make the film appear more elegant and high-quality?
Although there were many scripts available, truly good ones were rare.
Indeed, he was young and naive to think that he could secure a deal to just gloss over the matter.
Gao Feng was even angrier now.
The young man hadn’t heeded his advice initially and had now caused so much trouble. It remained to be seen how he was going to take care of this matter.
If in the end things looked like they would fall apart, he would have to step in.
At that point, Li Shu would finally realize what a blockhead her son was.
Given this, Gao Feng fell silent and did not speak another word.
Under the stares of those around him, Mo Xicheng casually said, “Director Li’s film is not a suitable investment for us, but coincidentally, Director w.a.n.g is preparing to shoot a new film and I’ve discussed a collaboration with him. We can invest 40 percent, would you be interested?”
Everyone: …
The meeting room fell silent in the light of this new information. Everyone turned to look at him.
Director Li and Director w.a.n.g were two of the most renowned directors in the industry, although Director Li had his flaws. Besides, because of behavior, he ultimately had a bad reputation, even though his films were big hits.
But Director w.a.n.g was different.
He was the best in the country.
There were always investors looking for him, pleading to invest in his films.
How had Mo Xicheng even secured a 40 percent investment?!
Was that even possible?
Widening their eyes, everyone looked at him with an expression of disbelief.
Only Mo Zhi gulped and then asked, “Director w.a.n.g? Which Director w.a.n.g? Don’t try to trick us with some unknown Director w.a.n.g. Even if you were the male lead in one of Director w.a.n.g’s movies, we all know he chose you only because he had to settle for the second best. Why would he give you so much of an advantage?! The way I see it, this must be another Director w.a.n.g. So be very clear, Mo Xicheng, which Director w.a.n.g are you talking about?”
Staring straight at Mo Zhi, Mo Xicheng said confidently, “Director w.a.n.g Kan.”
With that clarification, everyone was speechless.
Mo Xicheng looked at everyone and then lowered his gaze.
After w.a.n.g Kan’s film
Ambition
had set a new sales record, he had reinforced his position in the industry.
And w.a.n.g Kan had an annoying trait—he would only make a film once every two years. Hence for that reason, everyone had thought that he was going to step down after filming
Ambition.
