Chapter 122: The episode ends, upon meeting Director Zhang Yimou!

Evening.

Re Ba, Xiao Tian, and Tao Hong were in the inside room.

Lin Mo and those guys were sleeping outside.

It felt somewhat like a northeastern kang.

Teacher Huang lay on the kang, shouting toward Lin Mo: "Director Lin, tomorrow are you and Re Ba flying straight to Mo Du, or is there some other arrangement?"

Lin Mo lazily replied: "I plan to hang around in Yanjing for a couple more days; Jiang Wen Laoge and President Wang said they want to treat me to a meal!"

Jiang Wen Laoge?

Hearing that title.

Sha Yi and Teacher He both froze for a moment.

The audience in the live stream were also like that.

???

"Director Lin and Jiang Dao are that close?!"

"Of course! You don't know, without Jiang Dao's help, Director Lin's film Let the Bullets Fly probably wouldn't have passed review!"

"Ah, Jiang Wen is so awesome!"

"Nonsense, he's a big shot in the capital circle!"

"Impressive!"

Netizens flooded the bullet screen.

They said this show was live 24 hours a day.

Even if the guests were sleeping.

The broadcast remained on.

Of course.

The camera only points to the outer room, i. e., the living room.

Huang Lei laughed while letting everyone in on the secret: "You didn't know, did you? Director Lin and Jiang Dao are sworn brothers!"

"What? Really or fake?"

Sha Yi and Teacher He were completely bewildered, and the live stream exploded.

The key is, Lin Mo is only in his twenties, while Jiang Wen's age is probably two cycles older than his.

This this...

Seeing everyone so curious, Lin Mo went on to explain how he and Jiang Wen first met and how they became brothers over drinks.

After he finished, everyone laughed.

"Haha, this is totally Jiang Wen!"

"666!"

"Awesome!"

"Becoming sworn brothers right after drinking—this behavior is truly Jiang Wen!"

"Hilarious, you can actually do that?!"

"That said, Jiang Wen really has an eye for people—look at Lin Mo's achievements now."

"You can actually do that?!"

The Longing for Life live stream's bullet screen flooded.

Huang Lei couldn't help bursting into laughter: "Hahaha, okay, okay, this totally fits Jiang Dao's personality!"

Although he knew Lin Mo and Jiang Wen were sworn brothers.

But he had never heard the reason behind it before.

As it turns out.

These two developed feelings while drinking and right then became sworn brothers.

But this also really fits Jiang Wen's personality.

Teacher He also chimed in happily: "Director Lin, your way of making friends is truly unique—you can drink and gain an elder brother!"

Outside, those guys were chatting.

Likewise.

Inside, Re Ba, Xiao Tian, and Tao Hong were also chatting.

This episode of Longing for Life.

The heat was high, it even topped Weibo's hot search.

Mainly because the invited guest lineup is super strong!

The renowned Lin Mo, Director Lin!

And there's Sha Yi, the guy who brings his own traffic!

Apart from participating in one episode of Extreme Challenge while promoting The Richest Man in Xihong City, Lin Mo hasn't taken part in any variety shows.

Especially, the release of the film Let the Bullets Fly directly put him on a pedestal.

Now, to the outside world, Lin Mo is too mysterious.

So the Longing for Life show invited him.

The traffic instantly took off.

The next day.

After recording the morning program.

This episode ends here.

Everyone packed their luggage and went their separate ways.

Xiao Tian and Tao Hong went to Mo Du.

Lin Mo, Re Ba, and Teacher Huang—the three of them—took the Production Team's vehicle back to the city.

As for Teacher He, Sha Yi, and Da Hua, they each went back to their own homes, each looking for their own mother.

On the other side, Xiao Tian and Tao Hong arrived at the airport; with no cameras following, Xiao Tian finally couldn't hold back curiosity: "Sister Tao Hong, what do you think of Teacher Huang's cooking?"

"Hmm, it's okay, just a bit salty," Tao Hong replied bluntly, then immediately changed tone, smiling at Xiao Tian, "Are you trying to ask why Teacher He praised it so extravagantly?"

Xiao Tian, hearing this, nodded vigorously.

"You're still too inexperienced," Tao Hong patted her shoulder. "Teacher He wasn't just having a meal. No, he was returning a favor! Teacher Huang is busy in the kitchen all day; it's not easy, so a couple of compliments are warranted."

Xiao Tian, hearing that, suddenly realized there was so much nuance to it!

Seems so.

If she were cooking herself, she'd also want a friend like Teacher He to compliment her.

On the other side.

After Lin Mo and Teacher Huang separated.

He first took Re Ba to the hotel to drop off their luggage.

Then the two rested for a while.

All the way until the afternoon.

He received a call from Jiang Wen Laoge.

He gave Lin Mo a location, saying they could dine together that night.

He said it was to introduce a friend to him!

Lin Mo, you know.

He changed clothes, then sat scrolling TikTok, waiting for Re Ba to do her makeup.

Women, after all.

Going out is always a bit troublesome.

Not until almost 6 o'clock did Re Ba finally appear, all beautifully dressed.

I have to say.

Jiang Wen Laoge is really thoughtful.

He even sent his assistant to pick her up.

Yanjing, traffic jams are the norm.

The hotel wasn't far to begin with.

But this jam was so bad that it still took almost an hour to arrive.

Unbelievable!

It's a private restaurant.

It only serves VIP customers.

Soon, they arrived at a private room; after pushing the door open,

Lin Mo only then discovered.

There were quite a few people.

They were mostly people he knew.

Jiang Wen, his brother Jiang Wu, and sister‑in‑law Zhou Yun.

Also present were Feng Xiaogang, Ge You, and the Wang Family Brothers.

Huh?

Director Zhang was also there, along with Zhang Ziyi.

Then Lin Mo saw another familiar face.

Chen Daoming!

Wow, this private room is full of big names in the circle.

"Brother, sister‑in‑law, we've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Jiang Wen, seeing Lin Mo arrive, greeted him cheerfully.

Lin Mo waved with a smile, "Brother, the traffic jam in Yanjing is unusually severe!"

Re Ba followed Lin Mo in greeting Jiang Wen and the others.

"Haha, Director Lin, you'll get used to it; Yanjing's area always has many cars and people." Ge You's trademark laugh rang out, instantly heating the atmosphere.

"Director Lin! Still as dashing as ever!" Feng Xiaogang said, greeting Lin Mo with a smile.

"Director Lin!"

Jiang Wu, Zhou Yun, and Zhang Ziyi also greeted enthusiastically.

"Director Zhang!"

In front of Zhang Yimou, Lin Mo, being junior, naturally had to be more modest.

Zhang Yimou said with admiration, "Director Lin, you're truly impressive; that film 'Let the Bullets Fly' left me slapping the table in awe, remarkable!" He patted Lin Mo's shoulder as he spoke.

"Brother, come, come, let me introduce you!" Jiang Wen enthusiastically looped his arm around Lin Mo's shoulder, pointing to Chen Daoming beside Zhang Yimou, "This is a titan of our industry, the chairman of the Film Association, Chen Daoming, Teacher Chen!"

Chen Daoming, hearing that, beamed and extended his hand, "Ah, Director Lin, your name is thunderously famous; finally I meet you in person!"

Lin Mo, seeing this, quickly stepped forward and firmly shook Teacher Chen's hand, "Teacher Chen, you're too kind! I've always regarded you as an idol."

After some small talk, everyone took their seats, and the atmosphere became relaxed and cheerful.
