ECOS DE LA MOLE: JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME
November 8, 2017

lacovacha.mx/vida-nona/jean-claude-van-damme-en-la-mole/
The second day of activities at La Mole Comic Con counted with the presence of several guests a little away from the middle comiquero, among them the most anticipated: Jean-Claude Van Damme.
Jean Claude was brought to Mexico with support from Amazon Prime Video who were guarding him all the time and coordinating the logistics of his presentation along with the people of La Mole, this caused at times a bit of restrictions and misunderstandings because he was first informed to the assistants who could not record anything of Van Damme's presentation, only take photos, but finally a sector was informed that permission had been given.
The event was planned in three parts: The first dedicated to the screening of the first two episodes of the new Van Damme series, Jean Claude Van Johnson, followed by the actor's presentation for a question / answer round, and finally the autograph session, which as with Jeff Hardy, would be free but intended only for the first 200 people who had come to train to attend the screening and the talk.
Among the attendees, some of whom spent the night outside the site that houses the Mole to get good places, there was enthusiasm and excitement. You could find the same for young people and children as for middle-aged men and women, eager to see the art lover and perhaps get some memory or dedicate some words. The screening of the two episodes of the series passed in a pleasant way, amid the laughter and expressions of astonishment of the assistants, in spite of having to wait some extra minutes. Notably, we witnessed that such delays were mainly due to the fact that the people of Amazon were very careful in reviewing the details for the presentation over and over again, to the point of briefly breaking into the previous talk dedicated to The Death of Superman, subject The organization of the Mole and its volunteers who were very attentive at all times, knew how to handle in an accurate manner so that the situation did not get out of hand.
When at last Jean Claude went on stage he did it with a huge smile, amid the shouts of emotion and recording with his smartphone to the audience present. The moderator told us that while the screening was taking place, JCVD was back listening to the reactions of the audience and very happy for the great response.
After greeting the audience in Spanish, he was questioned about his impressions of the audience's response. He said he felt very excited besides mentioning that his heart belongs to those present because everything he has achieved thanks to his audience. Later he asked that the talk not only focus on him and also interview the director of the series to talk about it, almost useless attempt, because after a questioning people again asked for answers to Van Damme.
The general mood of the presentation was festive as JC was dedicated to please his fans, the same playing a joke on his interviewer by throwing a flying kick to his back or dancing as he does in the Kickboxer scene popularized recently thanks to a recurring gif in social networks.
The moving moment occurred while talking about his series and he noticed that one of his admirers in the first row crying inconsolably to what he reacted automatically going to him to hug him, kissed his forehead and spoke a few words. When the boy was questioned the reason for his crying he said that years ago he had thought about killing himself, but for his last day he had planned to have a delicious meal and watch a good movie, he chose one of Van Damme and after that he decided to continue Go ahead and take inspiration, his goal since then had been to become a bit like his idol and that's why it meant so much to see him. The actor was moved and asked that they always follow their objectives.
Before the question of another follower on "how to become like him?" Replied that the main thing is to know what you want and after that get to know you, become your best friend, know your capabilities and limitations to focus on from there. "... It will seem stupid," he said, "but it is during those talks with yourself that in a moment God appears and allows whatever you want to happen, I know, it's real."
It is remarkable how every time someone shouted "I love you" he answered without fail "I love you too", even if he was answering something else, he interrupted himself to be able to return the gesture.
He said goodbye not before recommending that we see his new series and give a poster and photo to a wheelchair admirer.
After the majority of the room was vacated to allow the Most of the room was vacated to allow entry only to those who had obtained bracelet for signature, came back with a different shirt and ready to give photos and autographed posters to the winners, at all times was kind to his followers, giving them a smile, hugs or listening to their stories (although he does not speak fluent Spanish, he does understand it).
So he listened with attention and patience to the girl who told him that he was always the inspiration of her dad, the family that had him as an example, the girl who said he loved him since the 80s or make reverential greetings to those who said they had registered for a Martial art discipline thanks to him. He posed without rest for more than 200 photos and then retired thanking us for our presence.

This is my favourite part of the event: The moving moment occurred while talking about his series and he noticed that one of his admirers in the first row was crying inconsolably to which he reacted automatically by going to him to hug him, kissed his forehead and spoke a few words. When the boy was questioned the reason for his crying he said that years ago he had thought about killing himself, but for his last day he had planned to have a delicious meal and watch a good movie, he chose one of Van Damme and after that he decided to continue Go ahead and take inspiration, his goal since then had been to become a bit like his idol and that's why it meant so much to see him. The actor was moved and asked that they always follow their objectives.

One sentence says 'do not meet your idols', but that does not apply to 'Jean-Claude Van Damme', who came to Mexico City to present his new series at La Mole Comic Con and during this event he demonstrated to have a great quality as a human being.
The martial artist was very limited in his interaction with his fans. He was banned from contact with people and had closed the possibility of a question and answer session, but 'Van Damme' broke the protocol and did what he wanted to give to his Mexican followers.
During the screening of the first two episodes of his new series, the Belgian actor discreetly entered the back of the room to see with his own eyes the reaction of the audience, he found laughter and emotion.
The conference started and people greeted him with euphoria, everyone was surprised when he kicked over the presenter. When the protagonist of 'Bloodsport' mentioned this film, the attendees began to chant the last name of his character 'Frank W. Dux' and he made the gesture of a blow.
There was an emotional moment that marked the conference: One of the assistants who were almost up front began to cry and 'Van Damme' came over to give him a hug. The fan told that he was going to take his life, he prepared his last dinner and he started to see 'Bloodsport', thanks to this film the young man decided to move forward, he wanted to be like 'The Muscles from Brussels'.
Later, the actor shared his wisdom when they asked him for advice for young people, although in general it was advice to find happiness. 'Van Damme' answered that everyone should have a dialogue with himself, to understand what you want in life.
The scriptwriter and director also commented that some people are happy with their work and their family, but as for other individuals that is not enough, so they look for their creative impulse. But whoever does it must be honest with what they can do, think about their abilities not to get frustrated (if you've never exercised it would be difficult for you to become a martial arts movie star).
At the end of the conference there was an autograph signing for a lucky few who arrived early and received a special bracelet, including a young man in a wheelchair. In this event, people only received a poster with his signature but the action movie legend began to take selfies with them, even asking them if the photo had gone well and always with a smile.
This is how 'Van Damme' gave himself to his people with the same passion that his fans showed him throughout his visit.
What is your favorite movie of 'Van Damme'? Tell us about the networks of El 5.

Cultura El día que Van Damme vino a México y nos habló del sentido de la vida codigoespagueti.com/noticias/cultura/jean-claude-van-damme-mexico-sentido-de-la-vida/Translation by Google: The day Van Damme came to Mexico and told us about the meaning of lifeEdgar Olivares | December 1, 2017 A chronicle about JCVD, the secret of success and how happiness is to become your own best friend. [..] So I finished in the second row of the presentation that Amazon Prime made of Jean-Claude Van-Johnson in Mexico: a lot of laughing while watching the series and with my notebook and my camera ready in case something happened ... and it happened. Van Damme was happy. He spread kisses and kicked from one side to the other. He talked about his new series, he danced at some point like he did in Kickboxer. People asked him to dance more and everything was laughter, until someone in the audience threw a DVD that almost hit the actor in his face. Instead of getting angry, he smiled and said "I'll sign it for you", while the translator and master of ceremonies asked that nothing be thrown on the stage because the actor was not going to sign more things. The DVD is of a muscular young man who can not breathe so much that he is crying. Somewhere out a microphone and between sobs Pedro, from Jalisco, tells how the day he was about to commit suicide, he prepared his last dinner and decided to watch a JCVD movie (Bloodsport) while he ate. After seeing the movie, Pedro decided not to kill himself and exercise to be like the Belgian idol. Do not take it as a joke, I tell it as he told it because his narrative was emotional and perfect. It was very nice to see the actor get up from his chair and embrace a man who had in front who for him represented at some point salvation. We do not know how everyone's mind works, or what will make us click in there for good or bad. I think it is one of the most epic moments that La Mole has had and will have in its history.[..] "So discovering what you will do in your life can take a day, a week, a month or six months, a year. But all that time you should ask yourself, why am I here? What am I supposed to do in life? I mean: this is my body, this is my face. Am I handsome? Am I smart? Am I strong? Am I thin? You have to go to the mirror, see yourself and ask yourself, who are you? " People laugh, the translator laughs, Van Damme sees everyone with the hope that they translate exactly what he wants to say. Jean-Claude is confused, but looks excited to have, at last, the opportunity to express a speech that evidently has a lot of time practicing in front of the mirror. Move your hands to express the microuniverse in which you live an internal version of yourself. "And you must create two entities in your body. You must create within yourself a version of you (an inner you). So you're going to start communicating: 'ok, I'm tired', 'yes, I'm tired', 'ok, what can I do to not be tired?' Then you'll have to talk to yourself in order to be alone but be together (with yourself, with your other small self that lives inside you) ". Jean-Claude says that when you have this introspective conversation, at the same time you have it with "The creator", the "Father" who will be in the middle of the whole thing seeing "how much love you have (for you) and how much you want to achieve, when you go to fight sooner or later you will get an answer ":" It may sound stupid, but believe me! It's the truth! " According to him, life in eternal questioning will guide us to happiness. JCVD began to consume cocaine in the nineties, and it also went hard on the drink. He could do it because it was his decade. He had the luxury of rejecting important roles, of challenging Steven Seagal, of mistreating half the world, because he knew he was going to win, that he was on top of a roller coaster that in the following decades was in a tailspin. It was his moment and he took advantage of it as he could, so as not to have to live in solitude, I suppose. "When I was very small I was very thin, people beat me at school. I did not have girls, "reveals the actor. Then the women in the forum scream to what he responds with a smile: "Believe me." Then, in an unobtrusive way, a man enters the scene and speaks with the interpreter, and Van Damme becomes distracted while continuing his speech. Now the actor narrates that as a child he suffered a lot "because when people bother you, nobody listens to you, they put you aside when in reality what you need is a friend". The Belgian is excited, smiles, gesticulates, moves, stops, returns to his chair. It is Venus at dawn, while talking about the ultimate goal he wants to achieve in his life: "Because I really like nature, the environment, and ...", then the translator tells Van Damme that he has already hung up on time and You must finish talking.Van Damme says distressed "I must stop talking because I talk a lot but I love them" and people boo the translator, and the actor tries to defend him: "It's my problem, it's my problem. When someone asks me a question I want to give them the answer they deserve, "and the audience applauds.It was very frustrating. It's like watching a friend fight in the truck or when someone is telling a very good gossip in the subway, next to you, and get off before you know how it ended. I hope JCVD returns one day to Mexico to finish its history. Meanwhile, I invented a mini me that lives inside me. His name is not Edgar Olivares, his name is Koji Kabuto.
