Chapter 150
After saying that, Chen Mo left the office.
Arriving outside the company, Chen Mo drove home.
While driving on the road, Chen Mo suddenly remembered he still had an intermediate lottery draw he hadn't used.
"Start lottery."
Chen Mo thought to himself.
【Ding! Lottery successful. Congratulations to the host for obtaining top-tier freestyle fighting skills.】
The system's voice rang out.
Chen Mo frowned at first, but then relaxed.
It would come in handy when filming action movies in the future.
The next day, Chen Mo stayed home for the morning and drove to Jingcheng TV Station in the afternoon.
Upon arriving at Jingcheng TV Station, Chen Mo met the host of *Artistic Life*, Zhu Jun.
The two chatted with a smile for a while, then the staff brought out a script and handed it to Chen Mo. Zhu Jun explained from the side, "The script contains the questions I'll be asking during the interview later. Take a look and see if any are inappropriate; I can modify them."
After Chen Mo took the script and looked it over, he said with a smile, "Everything is fine."
"Shall we start now?"
"Sure."
Chen Mo nodded.
Then, the two went to the recording studio for *Artistic Life*.
At this moment, the audience seats below were already full.
A large portion of these audience members were Jingcheng TV staff, and the other half were their family members.
After the two took their seats, the director in the distance gave Zhu Jun an 'OK' gesture.
Recording began.
"Hello, audience friends, welcome to our *Artistic Life*. Today, our guest is the global A-list actor and A-list singer, Chen Mo!"
*Clap clap!
Applause rang out.
Chen Mo stood up and bowed.
Then Chen Mo sat down, and Zhu Jun, sitting opposite him, began to chat with him.
"Chen Mo, this is your first time participating in an interview program like this, right?"
Chen Mo nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, it is. To be honest, I'm a bit nervous."
As he said this, Chen Mo scratched his head, looking a bit embarrassed.
Some of the female audience members below immediately started screaming with eyes shining.
Listening to the screams from the audience below, Zhu Jun smiled and said, "Alright, actually there's no need to be nervous. Look, everyone below likes you so much."
Chen Mo shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I'm nervous about whether you'll make me cry later. After all, there hasn't been a guest on *Artistic Life* who hasn't been made to cry by you, Mr. Zhu. I think your talent for being a tear-jerker is top-notch."
Chen Mo said, giving a thumbs up.
Hearing Chen Mo's words, the audience below couldn't help but laugh out loud, and Zhu Jun couldn't help but laugh as well.
After laughing, Zhu Jun recovered and said, "Don't worry, this is a relaxed talk show."
"By the way, let's start with the first question. I've heard people say you were very naughty when you were a child, is that true?"
Zhu Jun asked.
Chen Mo nodded and admitted, "I was indeed quite naughty when I was little. Uh... but now that I've grown up, I've changed a lot."
"Was it 'quite naughty' or 'very naughty'?"
Zhu Jun pressed.
Chen Mo pondered for a moment and said, "Quite naughty, I suppose."
"Oh, but I heard that when you were four, you ran away from home and even went to Guangzhou all by yourself."
As soon as Zhu Jun finished speaking, it caused a gasp from the audience below.
They looked at Chen Mo in surprise.
Chen Mo just smiled after hearing this.
In fact, his running away from home at four years old was impossible to hide. Although so many years had passed, many people knew about it at the time!
People in the old residential complex where he lived, the police officers who handled the case at the time, the kindergarten teachers—one could find out just by asking around.
Chen Mo nodded directly and admitted, "Uh, yes. At the time, I got a beating from my dad, so I thought about running away from home. I went to the train station and bought a ticket at random; I didn't even know where I was going at the time."
Zhu Jun asked curiously, "But you were four years old at the time, how did you buy the ticket? And I heard you stayed in Guangzhou for over twenty days all by yourself. How did you spend those days? Did you encounter any danger?"
Chen Mo lowered his head and was silent for two seconds, then roughly explained the process of buying the ticket and staying in a hotel in Guangzhou for over half a month.
Of course.
Chen Mo didn't reveal the lottery ticket part; he just said he took money from home.
Although Chen Mo omitted many specific details while telling the story, both the host Zhu Jun and the audience below understood the danger of the situation.
After all, in 1990, a four-year-old child staying in Guangzhou for over twenty days alone!
"To be honest... looking back at what happened then, I'm also very scared now. If I had really encountered any accident, I'm afraid I wouldn't be in this world anymore."
Saying this, Chen Mo turned his head to look at the camera and said, "I'd like to take this opportunity to remind the children in front of the TV: no matter what, you must never run away from home."
*Clap clap clap...
Applause rang out.
Zhu Jun also sighed.
Then, he asked about the process of filming Chen Mo's first movie, *Shaolin Popey*.
Chen Mo also gave a simple account of it.
Then Zhu Jun said, "So many years have passed, but we still remember that movie, *Shaolin Popey*, which swept the country. It just so happens that our staff found some photos from when you were filming that movie. Let's look at the big screen together."
As he said this, Zhu Jun pointed to the big screen behind him.
The big screen began to scroll through photos of Chen Mo filming on the set of *Shaolin Popey*.
In the photos, Chen Mo was incredibly cute, and in every single one, he was in the arms of some female staff member.
There was only one photo where Chen Mo was running in front with his butt bare, and Chen Mu was chasing him from behind.
Seeing this photo, Chen Mo couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
The female audience members at the scene had eyes shining!
"Tell us, what's the story behind this photo?"
Zhu Jun asked with a smile.
Chen Mo said awkwardly, "At the time, there was a scene where I was fishing by the sea with Xie Miao and Master Wu Mengda, and the plot involved us getting naked in the sea and getting pinched by a crab."
"Originally, the crab was supposed to be fake, a model prop, but a staff member lied to me and said they were using a real crab. The most important thing was that they actually brought out a real crab, so I got scared and ran away."
Hearing Chen Mo's words, everyone present couldn't help but laugh.
The interview continued.
In the following interview, Zhu Jun continued to ask about Chen Mo's childhood, then showed more photos, and then began to talk about emotions.
Clearly, he wanted to make Chen Mo cry.
Finally, Zhu Jun brought out some photos, photos of Chen Fu and Chen Mu.
The photos started from when they were married, then to Chen Mo's birth, and then photos from North America.
In those photos, the two of them were gradually changing.
Getting older and older.
From their twenties to their current age of over forty.
Looking at these photos, Chen Mo couldn't help but feel a sourness in his nose.
Then, the background music started playing Chen Mo's "Where Has Time Gone..."
