Stay true to your original aspiration
"Mr. Chen, are you really going to do this?"
Tang Qiu looked at Chen Mo with some disbelief. She had thought her own idea was already outrageous enough.
It simply didn't conform to the guidelines of the legal profession.
But she hadn't expected Chen Mo's idea to be even more extreme, refusing to handle any cases for people who had committed mistakes.
If that were the case,
the law firm would only be able to fully take on cases from the victim's side. If that happened, even if the law firm could genuinely handle cases normally, the number of cases it took on probably wouldn't be very high.
She really hoped for this, but doing so would damage too many of the law firm's interests.
So when she submitted her application, she deliberately played it safe.
However, she hadn't expected that after Chen Mo saw her application, his idea was exactly the same as her original one.
This made her feel both excited and a little incredulous.
So, Chen Mo was the same kind of person as her!
It made sense when she thought about it.
Since Chen Mo established Tomorrow Group, how many public welfare activities had he done?
Helping orphanages, helping elderly and children in impoverished mountainous areas, and even stray cats and dogs.
Even the current Nanhe Coffee has placed charity seats and charity water dispensers at the entrance of its coffee shop.
Didn't all of this indicate that Chen Mo was a very kind and compassionate person?
Then, this matter concerning the law firm,
it was probably the same; Chen Mo also wanted to help those true victims.
"That's right, your application is excellent. Just do as I just suggested."
Chen Mo looked at Tang Qiu with an encouraging expression.
He suddenly realized at this moment that Tang Qiu was also a talented person!
Even though she hadn't been a lawyer, he had learned from television that everyone had the right to defend themselves.
And the application Tang Qiu submitted clearly violated the ethical guidelines for lawyers, making her an unqualified lawyer.
Excellent,
excellent,
with such an unqualified lawyer managing the Baishu Law Firm, how could the law firm not lose money?
He had indeed not misjudged her.
"Okay, Mr. Chen, I will do as you say."
Tang Qiu nodded gratefully, feeling that she had finally met her patron.
She hadn't expected Chen Mo to be so supportive of such an impractical idea of hers.
"Alright, you go get busy."
Chen Mo waved his hand and watched Tang Qiu leave.
Currently, Baishu Law Firm was still in the new employee training phase. It would take at least one to two years before it could handle cases.
So, even if this policy was implemented, there wouldn't be any immediate changes.
But when the law firm could handle cases, this policy would play a significant role.
Chen Mo thought to himself, no matter what, as long as this policy was implemented, the foundation of the law firm would be laid.
Regardless of the law firm's business capabilities in the future,
at least there would be certain restrictions in terms of business scope.
Moreover, coupled with Tang Qiu's reputation in the legal profession, the law firm's case acceptance rate would likely decrease even further.
Very good,
he wouldn't need to worry about the law firm for the next year or two.
With Tang Qiu, a talented person, he felt at ease letting her handle things.
Chen Mo leaned back comfortably in his chair.
Buzz buzz buzz!
His phone on the desk suddenly vibrated.
Chen Mo sat up, picked up his phone, and saw that it was Luo Xiao calling.
Luo Xiao!
Hadn't he just left yesterday to start filming?
Chen Mo was puzzled, wondering why Luo Xiao was calling him at this time.
He answered the call.
Soon, Luo Xiao's voice came through the phone.
"Mr. Chen, I have good news to report."
Listening to that suppressed excited voice, Chen Mo couldn't help but tense up.
After such a long time, and having come into contact with those employees, what he feared most now was hearing about "good news."
What these employees considered "good news," for him, was absolutely not good news.
His lips moved slightly, and he spoke with some difficulty.
"What good news?"
"It's like this, Mr. Chen. Just yesterday, several cinemas called, expressing their desire to extend the movie's run. This is great news!"
Extend the movie's run,
hearing such news, Chen Mo's head instantly buzzed.
The daily box office revenue for journey of subduing demons had already reached over 100 million yuan.
Such an income was already making him somewhat unbearable.
And now they wanted to extend the movie's run? Wouldn't that mean earning even more money?
Not to mention,
even if it was extended for half a month, that would be over a billion yuan in revenue.
As long as that billion-plus yuan came in, even if he made the unfinished building project even more luxurious, he probably wouldn't be able to spend it all.
Chen Mo rubbed his aching head, his voice somehow already hoarse.
"That… has the matter of extending the movie's run been finalized?"
"That hasn't been finalized yet. Yesterday, it was just the cinemas calling to express their interest. However, as long as we agree and sign an extension contract, then this matter will basically be settled."
Luo Xiao only thought Chen Mo was worried about the extension not being stable, so he explained.
It hasn't been agreed to yet!
Chen Mo's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. Then he cleared his throat.
"Extending the run? That's ill-considered."
"Is there a problem, Mr. Chen?"
Luo Xiao's expression straightened, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"The problem isn't big, but it relates to the ultimate goal of our Lanpian Film and Television."
"What did you say was the reason cinemas want to extend the run? It's simply two words: making money."
"And what about our Lanpian Film and Television?"
Chen Mo paused his speech here.
"Isn't it about making money?"
Luo Xiao asked, somewhat puzzled. In this era dominated by commercial films, what movie's ultimate goal wasn't to make money?
Hearing those two words, "making money."
Chen Mo's mouth twitched. Making money… what he hated most was making money.
"Your idea is very absurd. I thought you would have understood my ultimate goal in establishing Lanpian Film and Television after making a movie, but I didn't expect you still haven't understood."
"The main reason I established Lanpian Film and Television and invested in making movies is to convey value, a positive energy value."
"You can make comedies to bring joy to the audience, or romances to make the audience understand the ups and downs of love. You can also make war films to show everyone the cruelty of war and how hard-won peace is."
"…………"
"You can film many things, as long as you convey one of those values. Since I want to convey this value, then naturally, the more people who watch it, and the sooner they watch it, the better."
"As for what you said about making money, haven't we made enough money already?"
"Remember… one shouldn't be too greedy, otherwise, one will become a slave to money."
"Never forget your original intention, and you will achieve your final goal."
