Chapter 195: Seeing Yang Chaoyue Again!

~7 min read 1,237 words

The crew's wrap‑up work was, of course, handed over to his two assistant directors.

Assistant directors, after all.

They're responsible for those wrap‑up tasks.

Even so, Luo Kai and Wang Cheng were both in high spirits.

For them,

These past months following Director Lin, they learned a lot.

The *Wolf Warrior Movie* wrapped filming.

Zhang Yixing, Wu Jing and the others naturally went back to their own homes and looked for their own mothers.

After all, the film took about half a year to shoot; someone like Chen Yao hadn't been home in ages.

Chen Yao's family is doing okay.

Indeed, being able to afford sending a child to an arts school means they have some means.

Now that she's back,

Chen's dad and mom were overjoyed.

Originally, Chen's dad wanted Chen Yao to become a police officer, but she insisted on being an actress.

In the end, Chen's parents couldn't force her otherwise.

But…

What they never expected was that Chen Yao was signed by Morning Light Media as soon as she entered Shanghai Theatre Academy.

And she even landed a role in Director Lin Mo's new film!

These past months,

They haven't stopped seeing news about their daughter online.

And when Chen Yao returned,

Her friend Zhao Lin was the first to know.

In the café, Zhao Lin's excitement upon seeing Chen Yao was off the charts.

She grabbed Chen Yao's hand and chattered nonstop.

"Yao Yao, do you know how the classmates reacted when they learned you acted in Director Lin Mo's film?" Zhao Lin asked, her face full of gossip.

"What reaction?" Chen Yao asked curiously.

"It's pure envy and jealousy!" Zhao Lin said, gesturing wildly. "And now that you're at Shanghai Theatre Academy, basically everyone knows you!"

Who can say otherwise?

Chen Yao was signed by Morning Light Media the moment she set foot on campus.

Then…

A huge scoop broke: Director Lin Mo's big‑budget film *Wolf Warrior* cast Chen Yao as the female lead!

That made the Shanghai Theatre Academy students utterly envious and jealous…

It's what they call a 'chosen one.'

That's exactly it!

Chen Yao smiled and said, "There's no way it's that exaggerated~"

"Really, I'm not lying; the reality will be even more over‑the‑top!" Zhao Lin hurriedly explained. "You don't realize how valuable the title Mo Girl is now. As a First Generation Mo Girl, if you opened a Weibo, I bet you'd hit a million followers in minutes!"

She even thought she was being modest.

Chen Yao heard that and felt Zhao Lin was being a bit over‑the‑top.

Although she knows she's been quite popular online lately, it probably isn't that extreme.

She laughed, shook her head and said, "It's not that exaggerated, stop talking nonsense."

On the other side,

Lin Mo also returned to Mo Du.

After the film wrapped, he naturally had to focus on post‑production.

It was the same old routine.

Lin Mo oversaw the supervision, while a dedicated team handled post‑production.

He even hired the top‑tier visual‑effects team.

Money must be spent where it counts!

By the way,

Jiang Wen Laoge's film *Evil Cannot Overcome Righteousness* has been in theaters for over twenty days.

Its box office is surprisingly much higher than his previous work.

It's already at 700 million yuan in box office!

Douban gave it 7.6 points.

When Jiang Wen Laoge called him, he said the film's box office owes a lot to Lin Mo.

At first, Lin Mo was stunned.

What does this box office have to do with him?

Then Jiang Wen Laoge told him it's because the screenwriter's name includes his.

Many of those viewers came specifically for Lin Mo.

"Brother, you're now unstoppable; having the screenwriter list your name is more effective than any promotion!"

Those were Jiang Wen's exact words.

Although,

Jiang Wen, together with the other directors in the circle, they all know Lin Mo is incredibly awesome.

But...

This is Jiang Wen's first time directly feeling the influence of his older brother.

That's unbelievably awesome!

He figures that even if he spent tens of millions on promotion, it still wouldn't be as effective as putting Lin Mo's name into the film.

Over at the company.

After about half a year.

Lin Mo met Yang Chaoyue again.

This change is truly no joke.

She is now a proper idol; her clothing, demeanor, aura, and speech have all risen several levels.

After all, she now has a manager, assistants, a team and everything, completely different from before.

Yang Chaoyue and her manager came to the company for work matters, and unexpectedly ran into the Boss here.

"Hello, Boss!" Yang Chaoyue cheerfully greeted Lin Mo.

"Chao Yue, long time no see!" Lin Mo waved her over to sit.

The manager beside them, seeing Lin Mo, also respectfully called out "Boss."

"From now on, I'll call you Little Jinli!" Lin Mo said with a smile.

Hearing that nickname, Yang Chaoyue felt a bit embarrassed: "Boss... these were all randomly given by netizens..."

However.

What Yang Chaoyue doesn't know is...

Her "Jinli" nickname was actually marketed online by Liu Qin, and of course Lin Mo was behind it.

"In the group, are you tired? How's your relationship with the other members?" Lin Mo asked concernedly.

Hearing that, Yang Chaoyue felt a warm feeling inside. She really didn't expect the Boss to care about her, so she quickly replied: "Not tired, not tired, I get along quite well with the other members in the group!"

Of course.

Even if something's not good, she wouldn't say it.

Moreover...

This doesn't amount to much for her.

After all, when she first entered the factory to screw bolts, it wasn't as hard as this; it was tiring.

As long as she can make money.

She's fine with anything.

Yang Chaoyue is indeed quite good in this regard, especially able to withstand pressure and willing to work hard.

She won't, like some people, become depressed after a few netizen insults; she certainly won't be like that.

Although she sometimes cries a bit, that also fits a little girl's personality.

Later,

Lin Mo chatted with Yang Chaoyue for a while, checking in on her life and such.

Ahem...

Even so, these are all high-quality workhorses working for him.

But you have to care about them a bit.

Occasional encouragement keeps them highly motivated.

So.

Yang Chaoyue received encouragement from the Boss.

It truly felt like being pumped with adrenaline; she changed completely.

"Boss, rest assured, I will definitely work hard and strive not to embarrass you!" Yang Chaoyue also made a particularly cute gesture, swearing and promising.

It made Lin Mo laugh.

Finally.

Yang Chaoyue finally got a photo together with Lin Mo as she wished.

This thing, when she first met the Boss, she already wanted to do it.

Only...

At that time, she didn't dare to look up and meet his gaze in front of Lin Mo.

She was too humble then.

After all.

She was just a tiny trainee back then.

Now, she thinks that at least she can earn money for the Boss, so she has a bit of confidence.

So, after leaving the company, she sat in the car, looking at the photo on her phone—a selfie with the Boss—and laughed so hard her mouth couldn't close.

She suddenly thought of something, so she posted the phone photo into the Rocket Girls group chat. Instantly, Yang Chaoyue's phone rang nonstop.
