Chapter 288

Besides that.

In December, on the well-known website TCCandler in Mi Guo, a list titled 'Top 100 Most Handsome People in the World' was released.

As expected.

Lin Mo was selected, and he even ranked third.

As soon as this list was revealed.

Instantly, it sparked heated discussion across major social media platforms worldwide.

As previously mentioned, British Duel was very popular overseas.

However, as the director, Lin Mo.

Abroad, it was purely the movie that was hot, while he himself wasn't famous.

Now this list has been exposed.

Countless foreign netizens.

They only then realized that the director of British Duel was actually this handsome.

"What? Lin, he's actually this handsome!"

"This is the director of The. Foreigner?, my goodness, I can't believe it!"

"Lin Mo oppa, so handsome!!!"

"How come only third place? Lin Mo oppa should be first!"

"Lin, he seems to be a Huaguo person, right?"

"No no no, he's actually from Bangzi Country; we have experts saying Lin Mo oppa's ancestral home is in Bangzi Country!"

"Lin Mo, truly the most handsome man I've ever seen!"

"......"

This list was quickly transmitted back domestically.

At this moment.

Lin Mo was at the company.

He had no filming projects, but he still fulfilled his duties as Boss.

In the office.

Lin Mo was looking at the detailed revenue report that Liu Qin had just given him for the company.

Suddenly, the WeChat icon in the lower right corner started flashing.

He glanced at it and saw it was a message from Re Ba.

"Isn't that girl out shopping with Zhu Xudan?"

Lin Mo muttered a sentence and casually opened the message.

He discovered it was a photo, and moreover, it was of himself.

Lin Mo stared, dumbfounded.

The Top 100 Most Handsome Faces in the World?

He ranked third?

Re Ba: "Mo Ge, you made the list! Top 100 Most Handsome Faces in the World, you're ranked third—aren't you excited~!"

Seeing Re Ba's message.

Lin Mo also smiled and replied: "It's not first place—what's there to get excited about!"

Over here, in the café.

Re Ba and Zhu Xudan sat face to face.

She looked at her phone; it was a reply from Mo Ge. She couldn't help but let out a 'pfft' laugh, then quickly replied: "Don't get all smug—your heart must be blooming like a flower!"

Seeing her reaction, Zhu Xudan laughed and asked: "How is it? Director Lin seems fairly satisfied with this ranking, right?"

Re Ba laughed and shook her head, saying: "He says he's not first and asks what's there to get excited about, but actually he's surely pleased inside!"

Zhu Xudan couldn't help laughing upon hearing that.

Seeing her laugh, Re Ba simply shifted closer, opened her phone gallery, pulled out photos to show her, and said: "If I'd known, I should have sent Mo Ge's photos out—look, aren't any of these I took better than the one that made the list?"

Zhu Xudan looked and said: "Exactly, every photo of Director Lin is handsome! I said, Director Lin didn't get first on this list—there must be some cat-ness!"

Re Ba immediately nodded: "Exactly, I also think the first place isn't as handsome as Mo Ge!"

Love makes the eye see beauty—Lin Mo, in her eyes, is the most handsome, nobody can compare!

Meanwhile, on the other side.

In the group.

After the list came out, quite a few people were tagging Lin Mo.

Xu Zheng: "@Lin Mo, junior fellow disciple, you're the third most handsome in the world!"

Huang Bo: "This list is unreasonable—I didn't even make the top 100; there must be a dark plot. @Lin Mo, Director Lin, you didn't pay for it, did you?"

Sun Honglei: "@Huang Bo, no, what does this list have to do with you? Even if I could get on, you wouldn't have a share!"

Huang Lei: "Exactly, with Huang Bo's looks, if he got on this list, there'd definitely be a dark plot, haha!"

Ning Hao: "@Lin Mo, Director Lin, congratulations, congratulations—third most handsome in the world!"

Lin Mo naturally also saw the group chat.

Well, he also jumped in.

"@Huang Bo, Bo Ge, your looks absolutely deserve a top-ten spot; this list has a dark plot, absolutely a dark plot!"

Lin Mo sent that line to the group, and even he couldn't help laughing a bit.

This is also just killing time, finding some fun.

Even the TCC officials probably didn't expect that after this list was exposed, it would cause such a huge buzz in Huaguo.

So.

A few days later.

Another list was released.

The Asia‑Pacific region's hundred most handsome (most beautiful) faces.

This time, Lin Mo took the top spot.

And Re Ba ranked fifth among the most beautiful faces.

However.

The most surprising was that Shen Teng also made the list.

He actually placed twenty‑first.

That guy can't stop showing off.

He even posted a dedicated Weibo on the day the list was announced.

"What? Only twenty‑one, refusing the award, thanks!"

The current Shen Teng.

He's definitely a big star now.

Charlotte's Trouble, The Richest Man in Xihong City, Crazy Alien, Speeding Life...

The upcoming Speeding Life 2 is also nearly finished filming.

Look, he just posted that Weibo.

The comment section below is wildly lively.

"Hahaha, Uncle Shen, you made it to twenty‑one, enjoy it quietly!"

"Shen Teng should have taken first, pushing Director Lin aside /dog head/ /dog head/"

"No, bro, I was half‑asleep? Shen Teng? Ranked twenty‑first in the Asia‑Pacific region's most handsome faces???"

"Hahaha, Uncle Shen is being tsundere!"

"Block the number 2, aren't you then number 1?"

"Brother, my heart has melted, my god, what a peerless beautiful youth this is, today is another day to savor your magnificent looks, your eyes are like the finest amber in a treasure chest...."

"Could the person upstairs be Shen Teng's alt account?"

"......"

It's not only netizens debating.

In the company group chat.

Everyone is also teasing Shen Teng.

This time, in the Asia‑Pacific region's hundred most handsome faces, Wu Jing ranked third.

The film Wolf Warrior ignited the nation.

Having this ranking is normal.

Of course.

Everyone didn't really care about the ranking.

After all, it's just an entertainment, a pastime activity.

In the blink of an eye.

January 2020 arrived.

Less than a week remained before New Year's Eve.

Lin Mo and Re Ba arrived in Yanjing.

As the capital of Huaguo.

The festive atmosphere was thick; the streets were awash in bright red.

Evening.

Lin Mo treated Jiang Wen Laoge and Zhou Yun's Sister-in-law to a meal.

Brother Cheng Long was naturally there as well.

These past few days, the two of them have been rehearsing together.

As for the rehearsal,

the two obviously don't need to line up.

When the Spring Festival Gala director sends them a message, they just go.

After all, their status is right here.

If they both still had to wait on site to line up,

then...

Re Ba, meanwhile, has nothing to do but also rehearse with Lin Mo in the Spring Festival Gala studio.

She also ran into an acquaintance.

Chen He!

That guy also made it onto the Spring Festival Gala this year.

He did a skit with Feng Gong's disciple Jia Ning.

"Re Ba, this is Jia Ning, my partner!"

Chen He also introduced him to Re Ba.

Hearing that, Re Ba laughed and said, "I know, I know, I used to love watching the Variety Big Star Show!"

She of course knew Jia Ning.

The All-Star Variety Show is her favorite, ah.

Back then she watched it every day.

Especially the imitations of Jia Ning and Da Zhang Wei made her laugh so hard she almost choked.

It's just a shame that the show has been stopped.

"Sister Re Ba..."

Jia Ning momentarily didn't know how to address Re Ba.

To call her by name directly would be too rude.

But if she called her "sister"...

The key point is she is several years older than Re Ba...

In the end, she still called out "Sister Re Ba".

There's nothing to be done—Jia Ning's current fame and stature are what they are, so she naturally has to lower her posture.

Re Ba laughed and waved her hand: "Sister Jia Ning, I should be the one addressing you like that~".

They chatted for a while.

Lin Mo's rehearsal also ended.

Afterwards she saw Chen He and Jia Ning.

"Director Lin!"
