All the fans were dismissed when the meet-and-greet event ended. Chen Xiaobei and the rest of them then adjourned to the lounge backstage.
"Everyone! This event is a huge success! Judging from the response of different media platforms, I think we did a good job at promoting the movie! It is better than all the promotions that we did before!"
"This is exactly the result that we expected! Look at how excited the audiences behaved just now! From there, I can feel that the promotion was a major success! Bro Chen's fans are crazy about him!" said the other assistant director.
Considering that Chen Xiaobei was the main male character in the movie and was fully supported by Qin Cheng Entertainment, most of the people in the film base addressed him as Bro Bei other than Feng Yaolun and Tang Mengwan.
"Right? I've have worked as an actor for more than a decade! This is my first time seeing fans behave so passionately and excitedly toward an actor!" said the other male actor.
"It all thanks to Bro Bei's fan club! Xiaobei is the one that brought about this huge success! With his popularity, I'm pretty many would come and watch our movie!" said Tang Mengwan with a smile on her face while shooting a lovely gaze at Chen Xiaobei's direction.
"Sister Tang. I'm flattered by your compliment. You are definitely more popular than me! There's still a long way for me to go!" said Chen Xiaobei while shaking his head.
Chen Xiaobei was not overwhelmed with joy or shaken by the goddess's compliments. His state of mind had grown a lot ever since he achieved True Nirvana Stage. To be completely honest, an achievement like this was not enough to bring him satisfaction. People had to grow eventually. Chen Xiaobei had already transformed from a boy to a man. Tang Mengwan's face fell a little after his nonchalant response.
'Could it be I'm not charming enough for him? Or maybe he's with Song Qincheng? Just like what the rumors say.'
Tang Mengwan wished she could have met such a perfect man earlier.
"Everyone! Please come over here for a while!"
A group of people walked toward them with a smile while Tang Mengwan was stuck deep in thought. The ones that were right in front were Song Qincheng and an old man with white hair.
"Oh my! Director Zhou! To what do I owe the pleasure? Earlier, I was thinking to pay you a visit personally. I'm really sorry that you have to come here personally!"
Immediately, Feng Yaolun jumped from the sofa and greeted Director Zhou. At the same time, everyone included Tang Mengwan stood and hurried to the entrance. It seemed that all of them held this old man in high regard. Needless to say, this old man was no ordinary person and he seemed nice as well. Otherwise, all of them would not treat him so politely. Feeling curious, Chen Xiaobei stood and went and check out the old man as well.
"Who is Chen Xiaobei? I'm here to see his young hero today!" said the old man with a casual smile.
Everyone shifted their attention to Chen Xiaobei in surprise. The fact that this old man came to see Chen Xiaobei personally was a definitely a great honor. None of the people in the room could even dream of enjoying such royal treatment. There must be a reason why this old man would call Chen Xiaobei a young hero. At that moment, everyone was extremely envious of him.
After knowing that the old man was here to meet Chen Xiaobei, Tang Mengwan felt even more disappointed. In actuality, she did not mind being the one pursuing Chen Xiaobei. Not only was he good at many things, but his background also seemed pretty impressive. As long as she could become his woman, she would not have to worry about her future anymore. Unfortunately, it seemed like Chen Xiaobei was not interested in her.
Tang Mengwan was actually thinking about becoming bolder and worked harder to make Chen Xiaobei like her. She did not mind becoming his mistress.
"No! No way! I'm a goddess! The most famous actress in the entertainment industry! How can I consider to become someone's mistress?!'
Promptly, Tang Mengwan shook her head to eliminate the ridiculous thought in her mind.
"Let me do the introductions."
Song Qincheng hinted Chen Xiaobei to get close before she introduced the old man to him.
"This is the director of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film, and Television of China, Zhou Jianjun!"
"The current director?"
Taken aback, Chen Xiaobei still remembered the director that used to work together with Shi Haoxiang to kill him. Unfortunately, the two of them ended up being killed by Chen Xiaobei. It was only right for the government to appoint a new director. However, this man seemed to be too old to be in this position. He should be enjoying retirement right now.
Seeing that Chen Xiaobei was puzzled, Song Qincheng quickly explained the whole thing to him.
"Initially, Director Zhou was supposed to retire. He used to be a military secretary. After some time, he managed to work all the way up to become the chief secretary in the military! Due to recent events, he was called to become the director of State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film, and Television."
After hearing Song Qincheng's explanation, Chen Xiaobei could ascertain that this old man was not his enemy. He then strode towards to the old man and took the initiative to shake his hand.
"Director Zhou is one of the leaders of this country. I'm really flattered that you'd come all the way here to meet me," Chen Xiaobei said politely.
"No! Not at all! You are too humble! My ex-boss told me that he wants to drink with you! It is only right for me to come and meet you personally!"
"Ex-boss?"
Everything suddenly clicked. This old man used to work in the military. That was why he knew that the general of Thunder Kirin Special Squad wanted to drink with him.
Knowing that rescuing Xiangyu and Lin Xiang was not a simple mission – not only did it protect the honor of Thunder Kirin Special Squad but it also protected the safety of the entire nation! If something bad happened to Lin Xiang, Dr. Lin's research would be interrupted. And the work that he did was closely related to the security of this country. In other words, Chen Xiaobei had all the right in the world to enjoy a drinking session with the general and accept the fact that Zhou Jianjun came and met him personally.
Considering the fact that Zhou Jianjun was no ordinary person, his ex-boss must be some kind of legendary character. The way the crowd looked at Chen Xiaobei changed immediately! They were now looking at him in a fearfully.
'I don't care anymore! I don't mind becoming a mistress! No matter what, I have decided that I will pursue Chen Xiaobei!'
*Swoosh!*
Suddenly, a dagger was retrieved from Zhou Jianjun's sleeve with the intention of slitting Chen Xiaobei's throat.
