Chapter 514: Yang Mi is also in Yanjing?

After the interview for the "Face to Face" column ended.

The audience left one after another.

Although, they all wanted to take a photo with Director Lin and such.

But...

There are too many people.

This is simply impossible.

As the studio lights gradually softened, the chief director of the column, Chen Wei, walked over and said: "Director Lin, your sharing today was truly wonderful; this episode is absolutely going to go down in history!!!"

Hearing this, Lin Mo also laughed and waved his hand, saying this was exaggerated.

All sorts of "going down in episode history" talk came...

Afterwards, the two chatted briefly, and Dong Qing walked over holding a card: "Director Lin, could you give me an autograph? My daughter is your loyal fan; knowing I was going to interview you, she's been wanting your autograph for days~"

"Of course!"

Lin Mo readily agreed.

Actually.

Director Chen still wanted to treat Lin Mo to a meal, but Lin Mo declined, saying he already had an appointment.

Seeing this, Chen Wei also had to give up.

After all, there are far too many people wanting to treat someone as important as Director Lin to a meal.

Online.

The news of Lin Mo appearing on CCTV spread quickly.

After all, with so many staff having seen Lin Mo, it would be strange to keep it hidden.

Photos, videos, etc., all got leaked out.

In a short time.

Netizens discussed heatedly.

"Huh? Director Lin went to CCTV?"

"It's only been a few months; could it be that Director Lin is going to participate in next year's Spring Festival Gala?"

"Could it be that he's recording another program?"

"Internal word has it that he's apparently recording the 'Face to Face' column!"

"'Face to Face' is awesome; they've previously invited only outstanding big shots!"

"Really? When does the 'Face to Face' program air?"

"......"

Meanwhile.

Re Ba was at home; she had just finished sending a message to Lin Mo, asking if the recording was over and where to eat dinner, etc.

As soon as she sent the message, her phone vibrated and a WeChat message popped up.

"Huh?"

It was from Mi Jie.

Yang Mi: "Re Ba, I heard Boss Lin went to CCTV today to record a program? I just saw online someone posted a candid shot!"

Re Ba replied: "Yeah, it's the 'Face to Face' column interview, just finished!"

As soon as she sent that, Yang Mi instantly replied: "I'm also in Yanjing; I just finished a brand event; let's have a meal together later, and bring your Boss Lin!"

"Wait, let me ask my husband first to see if he has an appointment; you know, as soon as he gets to Yanjing he's swamped!"

"Okay, you ask first; if he has an appointment, then just the two of us go eat!"

"......"

Here.

In the car, Lin Mo had just put down his phone, preparing to close his eyes for a nap.

Returning from the CCTV station takes at least half an hour, of course, assuming no traffic.

Suddenly, the phone vibrated once.

He picked it up and saw that Re Ba had sent him a message.

"Honey, Mi Jie is also in Yanjing and she's arranged for us to have a meal together; do you have any plans tonight?"

"Hmm?"

"Yang Mi is also in Yanjing?"

Lin Mo directly replied to Re Ba: "Sure, I'm already on my way back!"

At last night's gathering, Lin Mo had a drink with them.

Afternoon.

In the group, Lao Wang and the others also asked Lin Mo if he wanted to get together for dinner tonight, etc.; Lin Mo politely declined.

Elsewhere.

Yang Mi had just attended a brand event when she ran into an old acquaintance, Liu Sishi.

"Sishi, long time no see!"

"Mi Mi, you've been busy lately, huh~"

The two smiled and greeted each other.

Online, rumors have been circulating that the two are on bad terms.

Actually, these are just rumors; the two don't have any conflict; they've simply drifted apart from being close friends.

It's mainly due to career development, resource competition, and social circles in the entertainment industry.

In earlier years, the two met because of Immortal Sword 3, and back then netizens even created a poetry CP for them.

As for why they gradually drifted apart later on.

As everyone knows, Yang Mi became famous because of the TV drama Palace, and that same year Liu Shishi's Step by Step Heart-pounding also aired; due to similar subject matter, people have constantly compared the two.

Moreover, both being actresses born in 1985 with similar career paths, it's inevitable that they'd have commercial endorsements and compete for film and TV resources.

Especially in the 2012 Golden Eagle Goddess selection, Yang Mi and Liu Shishi were hot contenders at the time, but Liu Shishi won, which also led to fans of both sides tearing each other apart.

Their relationship wasn't some kind of bitter feud where they tore faces apart; it's just that they gradually drifted apart due to changes in their careers and circles.

But that's all old almanac from long ago.

Nowadays, Yang Mi and Liu Shishi are not on equal footing in terms of stature.

So there's no resource competition anymore, and thus their relationship has naturally been improving.

The two chatted briefly, and soon Liu Shishi's assistant came over, whispering a reminder that it was time for her to take photos.

Immediately, Liu Shishi nodded at Yang Mi: "I'll go ahead first; let's chat again when we get the chance!"

Yang Mi also smiled and waved: "Sure, let's make plans next time!"

Capital Splendor Pavilion.

This is a private restaurant frequented by industry insiders, specializing in modern imperial cuisine, with elegant décor and excellent soundproofing in its private rooms; many stars choose it for business discussions or private gatherings.

Lin Mo naturally knew this place.

Before, Lao Wang was someone who had treated him to a meal here.

So upon seeing Yang Mi's posted location, Lin Mo knew.

This way.

After Yang Mi's nanny van parked, she put on sunglasses, threw on a beige trench coat, and hurried into the elevator.

"Miss Yang, you've arrived!"

The restaurant manager was already waiting at the elevator entrance, respectfully guiding her: "The Bamboo Rhythm Pavilion has been prepared according to your request; the tea has been served with white hair silver needle—do you need any adjustments?"

"No, this is fine as is." Yang Mi smiled slightly.

Besides calling Re Ba, Lin Mo,

Earlier, she had also sent a message to Qin Lan.

She has long been based in Yanjing.

Mainly, in the past two years, Qin Lan hasn't taken on any roles.

After all, this person, as she's gotten older, just wants to cultivate her mind and nurture her nature.

Besides, Qin Lan isn't short of that money either.

Unless she encounters a really good script, she can't be bothered to take on any roles.
