This director is vindictive.

Chapter 601 Whose perk is having their idol dance the tango with them?
Although the number of people was limited during the live stream of the fan meeting.

However, the popularity remains incredibly high, and short videos of the live broadcast of the fan meeting have already been released.

This also made netizens who spent a lot of money to buy a spot exclaim that it was well worth the price.

They couldn't help but sigh, Chen Mo is indeed Chen Mo, he never takes the usual path, fan meetings and the like are nothing new.

Most of the time there is a fixed procedure, but it is completely different with Chen Mo.

He's serious about spoiling his fans.

What's the typical format for other idol fan meetings? It's usually just the idol singing a couple of songs, reading a few pre-rehearsed thank-you lines, fans screaming and holding up light sticks, and then a predictable photo session. But Chen Mo is different! He turned his fan meeting into a massive tearjerker of nostalgia!
In particular, the interaction with fans, where he went to great lengths to collect footage of how fans had connected with his films in the past, brought tears to the eyes of the thousand fans in attendance.

Even though many people initially came because of Chen Mo's generosity, hoping to get freebies and benefits.

But if that's all there is to it, then clearly any emotion is merely superficial.

But what's most precious is sincerity! Sincerity is the ultimate weapon, and this moment perfectly embodies that.

Online netizens, in particular, were incredibly envious, wishing they could reach the scene and become one of them.

Those netizens who weren't there in person or in the live stream were even more envious.

The online live stream was filled with sour grapes, with the chat being flooded with comments:

Is it too late for me to go to Dali now?

"We need Chen Mo's team to offer training courses! Their fan service skills are just too hardcore!"

"Other celebrities should take note! This is what real fan service looks like!"

Those who missed out on a spot were filled with regret, collectively lamenting on social media: "There was once a chance to win right in front of me!"

Those who missed the live stream can only watch short video clips on social media with envy, so sour they could pickle lemons.

Ultimately, what's the big deal about sending plane tickets and hotels? What's the point of giving out red envelopes and gift boxes? Chen Mo's move won because of two words: sincerity! He made every fan genuinely feel that their idol truly remembers them and the years they've spent together. This sentiment is a hundred times more precious than any material reward!
"So sweet! Chen Mo is definitely the number one mind reader in the entertainment industry, right? This wave of nostalgia is so touching!" - Netizens outside the live broadcast room went crazy with comments, and the trending topics on various platforms were instantly dominated by hashtags such as #ChenMoFanMeeting#, #OtherPeople'sIdol#, and #YouAndMeUnderTheLemonTree#.

My Weibo homepage is filled with "immoral comparison pictures":

[Right picture] At Chen Mo's meet-and-greet, fans cried so hard their makeup came off while holding free gift boxes.
The caption reads: "While some people get fleeced while others receive an acceptance letter (meaning they're remembered by their idols)."

Meanwhile, those netizens who received benefits but also had their tears brutally harvested by tear gas are just like Versailles.

"Sigh, my friend who just won the lottery called to say the meetup was too emotional, and she cried so much she got panda eyes from the GUCCI mascara I gave her [sigh] (Location: Dali, Erhai Lake)"

The comments below were all the same: "Delete it, my best friend cried.jpg"

A popular question on Zhihu: "How do you evaluate Chen Mo's use of AI technology to retrieve a fan's movie-watching history of the past ten years?"

Top-rated answer: "Other celebrities: Fans must remember my birthday; Chen Mo: I can remember the face of your first love #DimensionalReductionAttack#"

Back at the fan meeting, the nostalgia segment was over.

Chen Mo said with deep emotion, "Unconsciously, more than ten years have passed since my debut. We can't always dwell on the past; we have to look forward. I originally prepared some gifts for everyone, but later I felt they weren't satisfactory."

The moviegoers at the scene and online fans, who were still immersed in the nostalgia, suddenly perked up and their eyes lit up.

The much-anticipated extravagant giveaway is about to begin.

However, many people were a little confused after hearing Chen Mo's words.

what does this mean?
No more gifts?
"No way! We don't care what you think, we care what I think. If you're not satisfied, we are!"

How do you know it's not satisfactory if you haven't even posted it?

"No way, they're not going to cancel the release?"

For a moment, netizens became quite anxious.

Then Chen Mo continued, "So, let's do something different today. How about this, we'll randomly select 10 fans from the audience to make a wish to me. If it's possible to grant it on the spot, I'll do it right there, how about that?"

"Holy crap! Chen Mo, are you serious?"—The moment Chen Mo finished speaking, the audience erupted in cheers, glow sticks waving wildly like reeds in a storm. The live chat on the big screen froze, resembling a PowerPoint presentation.

[By the protection of the bullet comments! My ID is "Chen Mo's Wild Wife," so please slam me!]

Is it too late to buy a plane ticket to Dali now?

[I suggest you make a wish to "never leave the scene," brothers, broaden your horizons!]

Chen Mo smiled as he took a laser lottery box from a staff member. Inside the transparent box, thousands of small golden balls were bouncing wildly: "See that? These aren't ordinary balls—"

He casually grabbed one, crushed it open, and found a piece of candy wrapped in gold foil. "There's candy in every ball, but only ten contain a 'wish ticket'."

"in addition."

He suddenly flashed a sly smile: "The winner must finish the candy on the spot before making a wish—don't think I don't know some of you want to resell it!"

Soon, staff members started handing out raffle prizes!
The live stream chat exploded instantly.

"Sexy Chen Mo, handing out candy on stage, who can resist?"

"I really want to eat it, what should I do?" "I can almost feel it through the internet, that candy must taste delicious!"

"How about I ask for half of Chen Mo's fortune?"

"The wish made upstairs is creative, but it's best not to make it!"

This situation is possible, but no one takes it too seriously. After all, it's just a thought; if someone actually made such a wish, they'd probably be torn to shreds in no time.

Besides, Chen Mo is just generous, not stupid.

Soon, all one thousand movie fans received a raffle ball.

The first thing I did wasn't to open it up, but to take photos from various angles with my phone to commemorate the occasion.

Only then did I unwrap the candy.

"Ahhhhhh!" Suddenly, an excited scream rang out from the crowd.

Then a chorus of screams erupted.

They were clearly the 10 lucky ones who were drawn.

"Come on, all you lucky ones who got the wish tickets, come forward!" Chen Mo said with a smile.

Ten lucky moviegoers stood in the front row of the stage, clutching wish tickets wrapped in gold foil, as if they were holding keys to Aladdin's lamp. Countless mobile phone cameras below the stage were pointed at them, flashing one after another, turning the Erhai Lake night scene into a starry reflection.

Let's start with the first one on the left.

Chen Mo strolled over to the girl in the long dress, and as he handed her the microphone, he suddenly teased, "Let's make this clear first, you can't grant me the wish to get married on the spot—after all, the main characters are watching from below the stage."

The big screen switched to Liu Yifei and others in the VIP area, who were smiling with pursed lips, and the whole audience burst into laughter.

The girl in the long dress seemed a little excited, her face flushed.

"Eat this candy first, calm down, and think it over before we talk," Chen Mo said with a smile.

The girl nodded vigorously, then put the candy in her mouth and ate it.

The entire audience was focused on this scene, eager to know what kind of wish the girl would make to Chen Mo—whether it was an economic wish or something else.

"I, I..." The girl was clearly still a little nervous, saying "I" several times in a row, and she was so anxious that she almost cried, but she still couldn't say it well.

"No rush, take your time!" Chen Mo understood.

After all, this is happening under the spotlight of everyone.

The girl suddenly took a deep breath, her chest rising and falling slightly, and a faint blush rose to the tips of her ears. She clenched the wish coupon in her hand, her knuckles turning white from the force, but then suddenly smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling as if stars had fallen into them: "I...I study folk dance, I've been dancing since I was six years old."

Her voice trembled slightly, but she spoke more fluently as she spoke: "But after watching 'Scent of a Woman,' I secretly practiced tango for three months."

In the close-up shot on the big screen, you can clearly see that there are still unshed tears on her eyelashes, left over from the flashback.

"I practiced in front of the mirror 128 times, but I always felt like something was missing."

She suddenly looked up and stared directly at Chen Mo, her shyness gone, like a butterfly finally emerging from its cocoon: "Only today do I understand—tango needs a guide of the soul."

She took a half step back with her left foot, lifted the non-existent hem of her skirt with her right hand, and performed a standard dance invitation: "Teacher Chen, may I ask you to dance? Just the scene from the movie 'Gone with the Bullets'."

The scene fell silent instantly, even the live chat went blank for a moment. Chen Mo raised an eyebrow at her stiff neck and suddenly chuckled. He casually loosened his collar and strode down the steps, grabbing a bunch of ornamental roses from the side of the stage. He pulled one out, biting it between his teeth and muttering, "Miss, you're probably about to break a record for the number of times you've stepped on my foot."

The moment the string prelude began, the girl exclaimed in surprise—Chen Mo had actually recreated Al Pacino's classic waist-grabbing move from the movie!

She stumbled half a step, but he spun her around. Under the spotlight, her peacock blue skirt rippled, and as Chen Mo's white shirt brushed against her waist, a tsunami of screams erupted from the stands.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

"She's so good at it! And he's so good at it too!"

"Holy crap, this girl is awesome!"

"That move is amazing, a perfect replica!"

The live stream chat exploded with comments instantly!

Many people have wondered what unreasonable demands the girl might make, such as a very realistic financial wish. Although it might cause some controversy, so what?

But unexpectedly, this was the girl's wish.

It's safe to say the effect is top-notch!

"Don't bow your head."

Chen Mo suddenly whispered in her ear, the heat almost making her lose her rhythm: "The whole world's cameras are filming you now—let them see what true beauty and elegance are."

The girl stared blankly into his smiling eyes, suddenly realizing her hands had stopped trembling. As Chen Mo guided her through that signature backbend, she heard her voice, louder than ever before, resound throughout the entire venue: "This dance is dedicated to all those who dare not dream!"
