Chapter 280

Evening.

A private restaurant in Yanjing.

Nowadays, these rich people basically eat at private restaurants.

After all, they offer specialized service, and ordinary people can't even get in.

Especially celebrities.

This kind of place is what they love most.

Today, Jiang Wen and his group have booked out this place.

The people who come.

They're all old acquaintances and old friends of Lin Mo.

This time, Lin Mo's film British Showdown earned the group so much money.

They naturally want to properly thank Lin Mo.

Just.

Before this, the group didn't know how to thank him.

Mainly, Director Lin doesn't lack money, and cars, houses, etc. are too ordinary to be impressive.

As for women.

Director Lin is a respectable person.

Well, we were just worrying about how to repay Director Lin.

Jiang Wen then came up with an idea for everyone.

Your younger brother wants to buy a private jet, right?

With so many people, if each chips in some money, it's just the perfect gift.

"Remember, everyone, don't leak it. After a few days, once I've settled the matter, I'll invite my younger brother to a meal and then tell him the news!" Jiang Wen also didn't forget to remind everyone.

"Besides, if it weren't for Director Jiang's idea, we really couldn't think of a good gift for Director Lin. I've earned a few small goals following Director Lin~" Ge Daye also chimed in with a smile.

"Don't worry, we've got it figured out!"

Everyone expressed their stance, each face filled with excitement.

They've earned quite a bit following Lin Mo.

The previous I Am Not a Medicine God and this British Showdown, at least Feng Xiaogang, Ge Daye and the others have earned one or two small goals.

Having them individually give Lin Mo a private jet would be a bit burdensome and not very realistic.

But if the group chips in together.

Each contributing ten or twenty million is still doable.

After all, in this circle, they understand human relations and etiquette, and repaying kindness is even more essential.

Otherwise, who would bring you along next time?

Everyone here are essentially experts among experts; they understand this principle better than anyone.

They were chatting animatedly when Han Canping pushed the door open; as soon as he entered, he heard everyone's plan and asked with a smile: "I heard you're planning to chip in together to buy Xiao Lin a private jet?"

"Yeah, San Ye, you also know that our group following Director Lin has made a fortune; we definitely need to show our appreciation and give a big gift!" Ge Daye said with a hehe laugh.

"Before, we were worried about not knowing what Director Lin liked, but now that Teacher Jiang said Director Lin wants a private jet, it's simple—if each of us chips in, we can easily pull it off!" Chen Daoming also nodded and said.

Han Canping turned his head to look at Jiang Wen, nodded, and said: "Count me in!"

As for making money, although Ge You and Chen Daoming have also earned quite a bit, compared to Han Canping and Lin Mo, they're practically small-time.

Han Canping and Lin Mo are the ones who made the big bucks; what these people get is at most a small fraction.

Upon hearing that Han Canping also wanted to join, Jiang Wen immediately burst into a smile that couldn't be contained: "No problem, San Ye, with your contribution, this gift will be even more substantial!"

Meanwhile.

Lin Mo and Elder Brother Cheng Long were on the road.

Yanjing's traffic.

Those who understand, understand.

Especially during the evening rush hour, it's a total jam.

By the time they arrived, it was already 7:30 p. m.

Everyone had arrived and was waiting for the two of them.

The group was chatting and laughing.

Well, when everyone saw Lin Mo and Cheng Long arrive, they all went over to greet them.

"Director Lin, you're getting more and more handsome!"

"Speaking of which, our director circle really owes it to Director Lin; otherwise, nobody would be able to show their face!"

"Big brother, I heard you run every day; your physique is probably something even young people can't match!"

Lin Mo is very familiar with this bunch.

Although, he's not from the capital circle.

But now these capital-circle people are all considered to be hanging out with him.

Lin Mo was also exchanging pleasantries with everyone.

"I heard you two have been invited to participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala; I'll go to the scene to check it out then!" Han Canping looked at the two and said.

"As for me, due to special circumstances, I can't easily refuse." Cheng Long smiled and said.

"The Spring Festival Gala director team is afraid that Mozi might refuse, so they had me act as a spokesperson; to say the most impressive, it's still him—the Spring Festival Gala is practically begging him to appear!" Then he also pointed at Lin Mo.

"Uncle Long, don't exaggerate—I really had no time last year." Lin Mo quickly waved his hand.

「Ah, Director Lin is going to be on the Spring Festival Gala? 」

Upon hearing this, everyone was also a bit surprised.

Immediately, they came to their senses.

「Ge Daye said with a smile: 'Director Lin and Elder Brother should be doing a singing program; if they get on the Spring Festival Gala, who knows how many young girls will be charmed to death by Director Lin!'」

「Exactly, exactly, Director Lin is the face of our director circle! 」 Feng Xiaogang also echoed.

「Exactly! 」

「If Director Lin didn't have a girlfriend, I'd want to introduce my daughter to him! 」

「Lao Cao, you're trying to take advantage of Director Lin! 」

「Hahaha! 」

Everyone chatted back and forth.

We're all too familiar; jokes are just thrown around casually.

Everyone present today were men, none brought family.

Cough cough...

It's a men's gathering.

It's drinking, bragging, and telling risqué jokes all at once.

The whole atmosphere was absolutely awesome!

Lin Mo was also pretty impressive.

In the private room, he was the youngest, yet he could chat with everyone happily.

Besides...

Like Jiang Wen, Ge You, and Chen Daoming.

They felt no sense of awkwardness at all.

Lin Mo always gave them the feeling of being peers, chatting without any barrier.

From 7:30 PM they drank until 11:30, almost midnight.

During that time.

Jiang Wen's older brother and the others all got happily drunk.

That was really awesome, all kinds of bragging.

A bunch of old friends sitting together inevitably reminisce about the past.

For example, how things used to be.

Jiang Wen's older brother was bragging again here.

「Back when I was young, I was as handsome as my younger brother; back then at Zhongxi, I was definitely a charming figure, that was... 」

「Alright, alright, stop bragging; when you were young, who among us hasn't seen you? How dare you compare yourself to Director Lin? I'd say everyone here is just a bit better-looking than Lao Feng. 」

「Exactly, exactly, want to look up your young photos on our phones right now? 」

「Still a charming figure? I know all your old classmates! 」

「Hahaha! 」

「...... 」

The next day.

Early morning, Lin Mo got up.

He still sobers up fairly quickly.

Because he went to sleep as soon as he got home last night.

Just now I talked on the phone with Re Ba.

Re Ba naturally knows her man went to Yanjing; there's definitely drinking involved.

It's a men's circle.

She can still understand.

At least her man won't fool around outside.

「Long Shu, you're also up this early! 」

Lin Mo just came downstairs and saw Cheng Long Elder Brother lying on the sofa watching TV, watching the morning news.

「At this age, I get less drowsy and can't sleep! 」

Cheng Long Elder Brother said with a laugh.

Whenever he sees these young people, he can't help feeling old.

Especially this time filming 《British Duel》.

He found that the actions he used to do easily now take a lot of effort.

「Long Shu, your physique is stronger than mine! 」 Lin Mo said with a smile.

Then Cheng Long Elder Brother went on and on: 'Let's not talk about that; I've had people prepare breakfast, you eat first, after eating we'll go to CCTV to meet Director Wang; as for the song, I thought about it last night, how do you think about the song 《True Heart Hero》....'

《True Heart Hero》.

This song really suits them both.

The melody is beautiful, and the lyrics are full of positive energy and uplifting power.

Spring Festival Gala.

Facing a national audience, of course we need positive energy.

Moreover, with their identities, it's not suitable to sing those cheap pop songs; too lowbrow.

「I think it's fine; this song is really good! 」

Alright, that's settled—this afternoon the two of us will go practice singing; I've found a friend from the Music Circle, and he'll give us some pointers later!

Okay!
