Chapter 435: Burnt Out

20 million yuan?!

Li Mo's first reaction when he heard this number was that Cheng He was wrong.

This guy must have kept his mouth shut for a while, and said that two million became twenty million......

Or maybe I didn't eat enough breakfast, didn't eat lunch, didn't eat dinner, and was talking nonsense when I was hungry......

Or......

Forget it, or don't.

Just by looking at Cheng He's bitter gourd face, he knew that the number Li Mo heard just now was definitely not a problem with his ears.

Seeing that Li Mo looked like he had seen a ghost, although Cheng He had already been mentally prepared, he still took a deep breath and said in a calmest tone as much as possible: "I have recently encountered a big trouble, and I need about 20 million yuan to turn over. ”

Li Mo didn't seem to have reacted from the shock just now, just looked at Cheng He, but didn't speak.

Seeing that Li Mo didn't say a word and seemed to have died, Cheng He continued to pluck up courage and said: "Li Mo, I will definitely repay this money as quickly as possible, and the interest paid will definitely be ...... higher than that of the bank."

Cheng He's words...... In fact, the impact on Li Mo was very limited.

Li Mo is not short of money.

It's true.

First of all, in the movies directed by Molong Media, although Li Mo gets very little in the basic salary of actors and directors, Li Mo is not soft at all in terms of the proportion of box office commission.

Although his highest percentage of the film is only 5% of the total box office, this alone brings him nearly 100 million pre-tax income from all the films he directs.

Even if the tax burden of personal income tax and other taxes is removed, Li Mo has more than 65 million yuan.

If you add the money from Lilith Technology and Molong Studio, which he can mobilize at will, Li Mo can easily label himself as a billionaire at any time.

Although this money may be able to buy a courtyard house in the imperial capital, and it may not be able to afford the follow-up expenses, compared to when he first came to this time and space, Li Mo has already completed the first small goal in his life......

So for Li Mo, even if it takes some time to come up with 20 million yuan, the interest is ......

He really didn't see it.

"Brother He, you wait a minute," Before Cheng He could finish opening all his conditions, Li Mo interrupted him, "I think you should know that our Mo Long has just recently invested in a TV series with the Wang brothers, Xingbaoyuan and Haiyu Film and Television, plus Sister Xiaolu's movie, and some other investments have not been recovered, so for a while, it is impossible for the company to at least come up with so much spare money." ”

In Cheng He's ears, Li Mo's words seemed to be a rejection of his request just now.

Although I know that Li Mo and his name are brothers, since the last time Li Mo failed to recruit him personally, this friendship was originally on the rise...... That's all that's left.

Before coming to Li Mo, Cheng He was actually a little embarrassed. So he went to find Sun Yizhou and Wang Chuanjun first.

Cheng He in this time and space did not sign a contract with the Wang Group after the first two seasons of "Love Apartment", so the relationship with the first group of brothers is not bad.

When Cheng He came to ask for help, Sun Yizhou and Wang Chuanjun were quite willing to give generously, but these two have only just played the main role in "Langya Bang", and for them, 20 million yuan will not be able to be taken out even if they are bankrupt......

It was at Sun Yizhou's suggestion that Cheng He decided to be cheeky and come to Li Mo to try.

Merely...... I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

Sighing slightly, Cheng He shook his head and stood up, dejected and about to walk in the direction of the gate, and in a mood, he even forgot to say goodbye.

However, before he could reach the door, Li Mo's voice sounded from behind him.

"Brother He, 20 million yuan is definitely not a small amount......

Cheng He turned around stupidly and nodded, it seemed that only instinctive reactions were left in his numb mind, and he didn't know what Li Mo's intention was when he said this.

"Even if it's me, it will take a certain amount of time to raise it," Speaking of this, Li Mo paused slightly, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a wry smile, "Besides, if you want to borrow money, you have to tell me what you are doing with it, right?"

It was only at this time that Cheng He suddenly discovered that he had patronized and said soft words, but he didn't even make the cause and effect of the incident clear.

Patting his head in annoyance, Cheng He hurriedly returned to the sofa and sat down, sorted out his thoughts while drinking water, and began to explain to Li Mo the reason why he came to the door today to ask for help.

In the final analysis, it was Cheng He who died by himself.

Cheng He in this time and space, after filming the first two seasons of the "Love Apartment" series, due to the withdrawal of director Wei Zheng, the third season of "Love Apartment" has been on hold, and Cheng He After the first two seasons of the hit, with Zeng Xiaoxian's halo bonus, he seems to be the one who has developed better among several leading actors.

This is also the main reason why he will refuse Li Mo's solicitation.

If you can do it yourself, why bother to join forces with others?

In the past two years, although Cheng He has not been a big hit, he has become a little famous by playing the same type of role in several TV series in succession.

With the popularity of "Where Are You Going, Dad" cooperated by Molong and Guanglu Media, some TV platforms that saw the opportunity quickly also began to learn to shoot their own reality show variety shows, and Cheng He took advantage of his popularity to take over such a show.

In order to dispel Cheng He's bad impression of reality shows, the producer directly made a big fuss about the salary and directly signed a contract with him with a total remuneration of up to 2 million.

As we said earlier, the reality show salary in this year is far less exaggerated than in the previous life after 2015.

For a second-tier male artist like Cheng He, two million is already a premium.

However, just two weeks ago, just as Cheng He was full of ambition to participate in the show, a paparazzi named Zhuo Wei took a photo of Cheng He's cheating actress in the marriage circle, and the other party was pregnant, and the photo was also sent to Cheng He's house.

This is a hornet's nest.

Not only did Cheng He's new wife Xu Jingdu resolutely plan to divorce him, but the producer of the reality show didn't care about 3721 coming to the door, on the grounds that Cheng He's current public opinion trend had a destructive impact on the show, not only terminated the acting contract with Cheng He, but also launched a claim of 20 million yuan against Cheng He in accordance with the compensation clause in the annex to the contract, and limited Cheng He to file a lawsuit if he could not pay the compensation in full within one month......

Faced with this situation, Cheng He, who knew that he was at a loss, was anxious.

The lover has a child of his own in his belly and can't leave it alone;

The wife is the person she is sorry for, and she must be dealt with properly;

In the end, the contract in black and white, which cannot be bypassed......

After thinking about it, Cheng He could only admit that he was unlucky.

first took out his savings to buy photos from Zhuo Wei, and then left the house, leaving all the floating wealth to his wife Xu Jing......

As for the final 20 million compensation, he really has no choice.
