Huayu: Little Flower, please place your order.

Chapter 90: Double Folding Completed!

Since deciding to abandon her plans to work at the dance studio, Li Yitong has started doing what most newcomers do.

He embarked on a life of finding an agency, auditioning for various film crews, and then constantly hitting walls.

After all, her family wasn't wealthy or particularly rich, and she didn't have any relatives in the film and television industry.

But to say she's poor wouldn't be accurate, otherwise how could a recent graduate dare to have the idea of ​​opening a dance studio?

They could be considered a middle-class family, just as she herself described.

The reason she was able to learn dance from a young age and attend the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy is because her parents gave her everything they could and did their best to support her.

Perhaps it is because of this profound love that she is so sensible, hardworking, and unpretentious.

After all, she studied dance, which is not something that delicate people can persevere with.

She hadn't asked her family for money during this time and was supporting herself through part-time jobs when she learned that Li Mo had invited her to star in his music video.

She was incredibly happy.

Keep in mind that this is Li Mo's music video, a legitimate opportunity for her to appear on screen, and not to mention that Li Mo paid her quite a bit, 10,000 yuan per video.

So whether it's for making money or for opportunity, this music video is a godsend for her right now.

Filming for "The Land of Despair" will take place on the grasslands. The team has already gone there, while Li Mo happens to have some business to attend to in Beijing.

So he and Li Yitong agreed to meet up first, and then the two of them would go to the grassland together.

On the plane, Li Mo looked out the window and pondered. The music videos that had been filmed earlier had already been handed over to the post-production team for processing.

"The capital, Chengdu, the grasslands..." Li Mo murmured.

Just from the back-and-forth travel all over the country, it's clear that the budget for this music video is facing the situation of exceeding the limit.

Based on current estimates, the music video alone will cost three million, and the subsequent post-production costs and marketing will require at least another two million.

Keep in mind that these are only three songs!

You could say that this album almost drained half of Li Mo's career.

"We need to find a way to make money!"

Li Mo's thinking was simple: firstly, during the entrustment process, there would sometimes be information about the future.

There may be some investment opportunities in this area in the future, especially opportunities like the World Cup.

You might be able to make a fortune!

Secondly, there are many types of rewards, including equipment and songs, and it's possible that other things might appear in the future.

This is also something worth noting.

Finally, there's his old profession: Li Mo has already had his team contact some commercial performance opportunities.

Don't think it's beneath you. Zhou Liying is getting tons of commercial performance offers, what is Li Mo compared to her?

And as I said before, while taking on too many commercial performances isn't a good thing, not taking any at all isn't a good thing either.

The former consumes fame, easily leads to visual fatigue, and becomes obsessed with making money, making it impossible to continue to break through.

The latter drains fans' enthusiasm, making it easy for them to leave and lose interest, as they lack the motivation to continue following the fanbase.

It's not just fans; everyone is the same. When you like something or someone, you want to spend money on it.

You think that by refusing all of this and preventing them from spending money, you are doing it for their own good.

But if this continues, they will gradually lose the motivation to spend money on you. In the long run, liking someone without cost becomes cheap.

And your commercial value will also disappear, so this should be done in moderation.

"Brother Mo, thank you!"

On the plane, Li Yitong sincerely thanked Li Mo. After Li Mo finished his business, he met up with her, and they flew from Beijing to the grasslands that same day.

"You're too kind. But I consider you a friend. Friends help each other out, so there's no need to keep it to yourself."

Li Mo said that's what he said, but Li Yitong wouldn't really do it that way. This wasn't the first time she had expressed her gratitude to Li Mo.

For a while now, she's tried to venture out on her own, but what was the result...?

Not to mention the setbacks she encountered everywhere, even Li Mo helped her filter out at least three second-rate companies.

These companies are extremely good at making empty promises; their words are more appealing than their performances, but the real purpose is to trick you into signing a contract.

After you sign, you'll be in for a world of trouble. Over this period of time, Li Mo has indeed made a number of acquaintances through word of mouth.

Putting aside other matters, finding out industry secrets is quite easy.

After several such encounters, Li Mo gained increasing importance in Li Yitong's heart and became more and more trusted.

If something happens, as long as Li Mo has time, she can choose not to tell her parents, but she must tell Li Mo.

There are some things that are indeed inconvenient to say between parents and children, but Li Mo just happens to fill that position in her life.

And Li Mo patiently answered her every time.

Actually, Li Mo has his own reasons for not signing her, mainly because Li Mo's company currently has limited resources.

Signing one or two people is the limit. If we sign more, who will provide the resources?

He couldn't just stay at the company every day, so he hoped Li Yitong would go out and try things out on her own.

We can talk about it when the opportunity arises in the future. Besides, Li Mo has been keeping an eye on things, so we can naturally choose a suitable time in advance.

"Brother Mo, you know what? Last time I went to the audition, there was this girl..."

Li Yitong shared her experiences from her last encounter with Meng Ziyi with Li Mo, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with that girl.

I just felt like that girl had been hurt by Lao Wang.

"I'll talk to him next time. That old Wang is really outrageous. He's only had enough to eat for a few days, and now he dares to go around showing off! From now on, you better stay away from him..."

Old Wang:.....

Li Mo spoke with righteous indignation, and Li Yitong nodded repeatedly as she listened, as she had originally had a fairly good impression of Lao Wang.

Since Li Mo had said that, she still trusted Li Mo more.

"Brother Mo, can you tell me about this filming experience?"

Li Mo glanced at the time. The flight was only a little over an hour long, and there were still more than forty minutes left. He could talk about it.

After all, shooting a music video isn't complicated.

"Actually, the filming of 'Tales of Mir' was much simpler than the previous ones I showed you!"

Because it's inherently fantasy-oriented, the narrative of the entire music video is quite abstract, so you don't need to feel too much pressure.

Look…

Since there was no specific story, Li Mo still told her some stories he had read in that diary in order to help her understand the emotions.

He described it as a story about writing his song, and talked about it for more than half an hour.

"Brother Mo, you're amazing..." In Li Yitong's heart, Li Mo is now the greatest talent, and no one, not even Zhou Naicha, can compare to him!

Those others were all too far away from her, but Li Mo was truly by her side.

After getting off the plane, it was another several hours' drive before we arrived at the filming location.

The first thing you see are three RVs and several large tents; the whole team is ready.

And so it unfolds amidst the wilderness, with its streams, undulating, rugged terrain…

The entire shoot lasted several hours. Li Mo had already collaborated with Li Yitong twice, and both times the experience was quite pleasant.

This is more about a feeling than actual ability.

It's about the memories left behind by these two collaborations!

"Everyone worked hard today! We're having a whole roasted lamb tonight! Eat up!"

Having come all this way to the grasslands, it would be a real shame not to enjoy a meal amidst the beautiful scenery, so Li Mo had already made plans and prepared in advance.

The party lasted until late at night, and everyone had a great time.

Li Mo could feel that the team's cohesion was increasing. Having been an employee himself, Li Mo understood what kind of team building activities people truly enjoyed.

The most important thing is that this kind of team building activity cannot take place during holidays.

While I can't guarantee other things, I can guarantee this one from Li Mo.

Having had a great time and eaten their fill, everyone went to their tents to sleep, but Li Mo and Li Yitong were still a little unsatisfied.

So the two of them pulled the battle line back to the tent, where they ate barbecue skewers, smelled the smoke, and chatted happily.

The cool breeze caressed my skin, the stars, the chirping of insects, the distant horizon… each element was beautiful, and the combination of them was truly rare.

Before they knew it, a slightly tipsy feeling began to rise, and both of them felt a little dizzy.

However, whether it was because they couldn't bear to leave the atmosphere or for some other reason, neither of them seemed inclined to end the relationship.

Under the light, Li Yitong's face was flushed, and although she was still conscious, she couldn't deny the dizzy feeling she was experiencing.

Li Mo was in slightly better condition than Li Yitong. Although he had drunk much more than Li Yitong, he was still able to walk normally and think.

He observed Li Yitong and felt that Li Yitong in her drunken state was completely different from her usual self; an alluring charm lingered around her from who-knows-where.

Those eyes that look at you are like those of a fox spirit, their gaze scratching at your heart like fox claws.

Sometimes, people are capable of empathy, just like Li Mo is now empathizing with King Zhou!

"I...I'm going to the restroom. You keep eating and wait for me." Li Yitong stood up and called to Li Mo. There was one restroom for men and one for women in the RV, and Li Mo had his own.

Li Mo nodded, then asked with some concern, "Are you sure you can manage? Or should I help you?"

"What's wrong with that? I'm not drunk! Besides, I need to go to the bathroom..."

Seeing that Li Yitong was so certain that she had no problem, and that what she said was indeed true—that she needed to go to the toilet, and that men and women should not be separated—it was indeed inappropriate.

So Li Mo nodded, said only "Alright then!" and said no more.

However, Li Yitong soon paid the price for her bravado. Before she even left the tent, she fell to the ground.

Li Yitong, lying on the ground, looked at Li Mo with pitiful eyes, truly resembling a wronged white fox.

Seeing this, Li Mo smiled helplessly, then got up and hugged her.

"I'll take you to my RV! You can take a shower there and then sleep at my place! I'll sleep in the tent..."

"Oh well!"

Then Li Mo carried her out of the tent, and Li Yitong lay in Li Mo's arms, looking at Li Mo from a perspective she had never seen before.

Feeling Li Mo's strong heartbeat and passionate breathing, Li Yitong felt incredibly safe and couldn't help but snuggle closer into his arms.

However, Li Mo is not as relaxed as she imagined. She felt fine inside the tent because there was no wind.

Now, with the wind blowing, Li Mo's consciousness is somewhat hazy.

It's possible... I won't be able to sleep in a tent anymore.

Back in the RV, Li Mo escorted Li Yitong to the bathroom, then told her, "I'll be right outside. Call me if you need anything," before going out to wait.

The sound of running water in the bathroom grew louder and louder, and Li Mo's drowsy feeling intensified.

But he couldn't stand the smell of barbecue and alcohol all over his body, so he could only wait until Li Yitong finished before he could continue washing.

But then, as if suddenly remembering something, Li Mo looked at the water tank inside the RV.

I didn't know until I looked that there was less than 20% water left in the tank.

What if... Li Yitong finishes washing and there's no water left? What will I do then?

While taking a shower, Li Yitong was also thinking it over. She was certain that Li Mo was definitely her type.

The problem is, Li Mo is such a blockhead... he's just too dense!

She was genuinely worried that Li Mo, that blockhead, would foolishly go out and stay in a tent after taking a shower.

How can I hint at it to him?

It can't be too obvious; it needs to have a sense of mystery, like a woman playing the pipa while half-concealing her face. But how do you create that feeling?

I don't know how to do this question!

Just as Li Yitong was pondering, Li Mo's somewhat embarrassed voice came from outside the door.

"Yitong, can you hurry up? There's not much water left, and I want to take a shower too... I'm sorry!"

Got it!

Li Yitong's eyes flashed with a seductive glint, and a plan formed in her mind.

"Is there not enough water? What should I do? I've only washed half of it."

There was a brief silence outside the door, followed by a question that was both laughable and absurd:

Which half? The top half or the bottom half?

What Li Mo actually wanted to ask Li Yitong was whether she washed the clothes by area or by steps.

The concept of zone washing is easy to understand; the steps involve rinsing once, applying something, and rinsing again...

Li Yitong was truly defeated by Li Mo's amazing thought process, and was immediately at a loss for words. As a result, her joy turned to sorrow, and she fell down without paying attention.

"thump"

Li Mo also heard the noise, but fortunately, after communicating with Li Yitong, it turned out to be nothing serious, but she definitely couldn't take a bath.

After a quick rinse, I dried myself off, wrapped myself in a bathrobe, and came out. Although I was limping a little, my two long, white legs were still dazzling.

However, Li Mo had more important things to do, and he couldn't be in the mood for anything without taking a shower.

Finally having a chance, Li Mo went into the bathroom and took a comfortable shower, feeling completely refreshed.

Li Yitong lay on the bed, peeking at Li Mo's figure from what she considered a safe angle, and unconsciously swallowed.

Although she thought she was hiding it well, the blush on her face betrayed her.

Li Mo moved closer and politely asked, "If you're alright, I'll be going now. It's not appropriate for a man and woman to be alone together..."

"Ah," Li Yitong felt a little flustered. Why was she leaving so soon?

Li Mo smiled and said, "What? You don't want me to leave?"

While Li Yitong's mind was still racing, trying to figure out how to answer, Li Mo picked her up and carried her towards the bed.

"Sigh~" Li Yitong was just thrown onto the bed by Li Mo, but there was no sign of refusal on her face.

Wearing nothing at all is for convenience!
