It had been more than two years.
The last atomic watch that had wandered outside had been found.
It was worn by Wang Zeyu, the young master of a wealthy family. Now, he had become Chen Jin's "Little Brother Ze."
He also enjoyed the treatment of being monitored 24 hours a day.
If the watch had been worn on Wang Zeyu's hand and he had not discovered any problems, Chen Jin would not have acted rashly and would have continued to monitor him.
If Wang Zeyu had discovered the problem and made a shocking discovery, Chen Jin would have had to take action. He would have sent robots to steal or rob the watch. He had to get it back.
After all, it was a high-tech product that was at least 20 years ahead of Earth!
Therefore, he had to make up for the mistake he had made in the past. He had to expend a certain amount of energy and cost to get rid of this hidden danger.
Wasn't this a little stupid?
Sigh!
Actually, Chen Jin did not realize that there was such a big secret hidden in this ordinary mechanical watch.
Moreover, starting a business required funds. Not to mention starting a company, even opening a jewelry store required tens of millions of cash. Where would he get the money? How would he get the money quickly?
Other than reselling jewelry, he could not think of a better way.
Now that he had found the last hidden danger and was being monitored, Chen Jin could finally put his heart at ease.
Moreover, with Little Brother Ze's lower body dominating his upper body, it would be strange if he discovered the problem with the atomic watch on his hand!
There was no need to worry too much.
Of course, even an experienced driver would screw up. To be safe, he had to get the atomic watch back as soon as possible to completely eliminate the hidden danger.
This required a certain amount of skill and patience. He could not be too hasty. The more impatient he appeared to be, the cruder his methods would be, and the more likely the other party would notice the problem … Never treat anyone as an idiot.
Therefore, Chen Jin murmured, "Just because of that watch, Little Brother Ze, you're my friend for sure."
…
The next day.
After a sumptuous breakfast.
In the living room on the east side of the first floor, Chen Jin and Shi Xiao Tao sat on the sofa and discussed something … Shi Xiao Tao did not return to Hang Hu City immediately. Instead, she spent the night in the guest room of the villa.
Chen Jin had a cup of coffee in front of him. He crossed his legs and asked, "Xiao Tao, what type of movie are you planning to do next? Do you have a plan?"
"Not yet."
Shi Xiaotao shook her head. "After completing Wa-wah 2, my mind is empty. I don't want to do anything. I just want to rest for a while and travel with my parents."
Other than her parents, no one knew what she had sacrificed. For the next few months, she only slept for four to five hours a day on average. She was not willing to share this difficult experience with others. After all, she was the youngest and most successful director in the country with two billion dollars. She had a dazzling halo above her head, and she enjoyed limitless glory in front of others. Even if she had suffered, she could not share it. There were many more people who had it worse than her.
Chen Jin nodded. "Indeed, you need to rest and recuperate for half a year."
"Half a year is impossible. There are hundreds of people in the studio waiting for me to support. I can stop work for half a year, but if they don't have work in half a year, they will jump ship. I can only rest for three months at most. After three months, I have to start working. "
"Where's the work? You still have to think about what kind of work you're going to shoot. Are you going to continue doing the animation movies that you're good at, or are you going to do something else? "
"Uh …"
Shi Xiaotao thought for a while. "President Chen, if I continue making animation movies, can you let me shoot Wa-wah 3? I've realized that I'm already very familiar with this series."
She asked directly. The value of the IP "Wa-wah Robot" was huge. There was at least tens of billions of dollars in box office potential to be excavated. Of course, she wanted to hold this IP in her hands. She could not give up just because she was tired. There were plenty of directors fighting over this IP! She would be stupid to say something like "not doing it."
Although she was considering a change of direction for her next movie and intended to do something different, she actually did not want to be too restricted by the story of a certain series. In the end, she would be given a fixed label by others. It was too difficult to remove this label. People might even think that she could not shoot other stories, which would narrow her path as a director.
This consequence was very frightening. Shi Xiaotao also had many stories in her mind that she wanted to shoot. It was impossible to specialize in animation.
Chen Jin asked, "I can give you Wa-wah 3, but can you write a better story?"
"It's very difficult."
Shi Xiaotao shook her head. "The later the movie series, the harder it is to shoot. It's harder to create conflicts. But the" Wa-wah "series is an exception. We can keep adding new characters into it. For example, Xing Hai Technologies' new product. We can develop a new type of robot and add it into the movie as a new character. On one hand, it can promote the product. On the other hand, it can create a lot of stories. The audience will also look forward to the characteristics of the product and the exciting story."
She looked at Chen Jin and asked, "I wonder if President Chen has any new robot products in development? If so, I can start the production of 'Wa-wah 3.' "
New characters meant new conflicts and freshness. With the successful example of "Wa-wah 2," even if the plot of "Wa-wah 3" was a little cliché, it would still attract a lot of audience members. This successful model was called the "Wa-wah model" in the directing circle.
If it was always the same old faces, the audience would get tired and fall into fatigue.
"No." Chen Jin shook his head.
"In terms of household robots, other than Wa-wah and Bang Bang, Xing Hai Technologies will not release new civilian robots for the time being. The consumers can't afford more. We will only continue to upgrade and perfect these two products."
As for the focus of research and development, it would be shifted to industrial robots. The audience would definitely not be interested in industrial robots and would not be able to incorporate them into the movie.
Shi Xiao Tao could only carry out in-depth research and creation on the basis of "Wa-wah 2."
"For this, we need to come up with a very good script. We will need a long time to polish the story. President Chen, if we want 'Wa-wah 3' to be done well, it will take at least two years."
"It's okay to take it slow. Just show me the script when the time comes."
In addition, Chen Jin also saw Shi Xiao Tao's limitations. "Xiao Tao, I wonder if you want to make other types of movies? If you keep making the 'Wa-wah' series, it will hold up all of your talents. You can't just make 'Wa-wah' movies for the rest of your life. You should try more. "
Shi Xiao Tao nodded gratefully. "President Chen, you are too understanding. I really want to make some other types of movies. I still have a long way to go as a director."
Chen Jin nodded. "Xiao Tao, I can't help you with other movies. If it's a sci-fi movie, I can provide technical support. For example, a professional special effects rendering engine, overall optimization in post-production, and so on. I can help with all of these. But for urban movies, comedies, and fantasy movies, you can only rely on yourself."
"Really, President Chen?"
Shi Xiao Tao was overjoyed. "President Chen, I really want to make a sci-fi movie. It's really great that you can help!"
Needless to say, the technology provided by Xing Hai Technologies would be very powerful.
Therefore, she decided that her next work would be a sci-fi movie!
Thus, the intention to cooperate was reached.
Shi Xiao Tao left Shang Hai with a joyful mood.
But then, an interlude happened.
The scene of her leaving Junting Grand Court with a glowing face was captured by a sneaky paparazzi.
On that day, the entertainment circle was flooded by the news of "Two Billion Director Staying Overnight at the President's Villa." It became the number one trending topic, causing countless rumors and speculations.
Shi Xiao Tao was instantly caught in the vortex of public opinion. Her reputation was severely damaged. She posted an explanation saying, "I was only discussing a film and television collaboration with President Chen." But the more she explained, the more the netizens made up stories and made up countless jokes and memes. Shi Xiao Tao was so angry that she cried.
Chen Jin's response was very straightforward. "It has been forwarded far more than 500 times. I have already reported it to the police."
A few days later, the paparazzi was sent to jail.
But the malicious speculations, the damaged reputation, and the damage caused … would never disappear.
…
Inside the pink room.
She scrolled through Weibo on her phone for a while.
Although they had only been apart for two days, the woman sitting on the bed could not help but pay attention to the person she cared about the most.
However.
The woman's face became uglier and her mood became worse.
"Chen Jin, you bastard!"
