Chapter 193 Movie Premiere

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was the May Day Golden Week.

The promotion for *Hero* had been rolled out across the country, causing enormous discussion.

This completely new historical film made audiences extremely curious. What kind of work would Lu Xuan present to everyone?

Although everyone knew that any product from Lu Xuan was guaranteed to be top-notch in the industry.

After all, if Lu Xuan produced it, it had to be a masterpiece.

But they still couldn't suppress their curiosity.

As soon as it passed midnight, the crowd who had bought their tickets long ago rushed in, intending to see it as soon as possible.

Cinemas across the country had cleared this time slot for *Hero*.

The result was full houses, even tickets being hard to come by.

Lu Xuan also had high expectations for *Hero*, and specially booked a large private room, inviting his good friends to attend the premiere of *Hero* together.

Since he was the host, Lu Xuan arrived at the private room very early, discussing gossip in the circle with Su Yao, waiting for the others to arrive.

Because it was late at night, and the person invited was Su Yao.

So these invited guests didn't bother with any disguises.

The first to arrive was Li Jie.

This time, he had made a special trip on a transoceanic flight from Hollywood.

During this period, his team had put a lot of effort into creating the image of an international superstar, allowing him to frequently appear in several well-known international IPs.

Now he could be said to be one of the most famous martial arts actors in the country.

However, after receiving Lu Xuan's invitation, he still took the first flight back.

As soon as he entered the room, he enthusiastically grasped Lu Xuan's hand: "Director Lu, I hope the box office is a huge success!"

Lu Xuan looked at Li Jie and said with a smile, "Hero is everyone's hard work, I have full confidence in this film."

"I just don't know if it can break the record!"

"If Director Lu's level of filming can't break the record, then I guess our domestic entertainment industry is finished!"

"Hahahaha!"

Lu Xuan couldn't help but laugh out loud at Li Jie's sincere expression.

"With your words, my film is worth it, I will definitely let the publicity department promote your words!"

"Just say, international superstar Li Jie extensively comments on the entertainment industry, it's all because of this..."

While the two were exchanging pleasantries, the other leading actors of the film also arrived at the private room.

Without exception, they were all incredibly enthusiastic when they saw Lu Xuan.

Looking at the sincere expressions of these veteran actors, Lu Xuan couldn't tell whether these people were being genuine or acting.

But everyone likes to be flattered, and these nice words were still very comfortable to hear.

After the greetings, everyone took their seats in the private room.

"Director Lu, I've been busy filming during this time, and I haven't seen the finished film of *Hero* yet. I wonder what the effect will be after post-production!"

Chen Daoming sat in the private room, looking at the movie theater already filled with the audience, and couldn't help but sigh.

Lu Xuan sat next to Su Yao, pinching her soft, boneless little hand, and took over the conversation with a smile.

"You can rest assured about this, I spent a lot of effort on post-production, this film will definitely not disappoint everyone!"

"There are even some special surprises!"

Seeing the light in Lu Xuan's eyes, the interest of the others was immediately piqued by Lu Xuan.

"Surprise? Director Lu, tell us quickly, what else have you arranged?"

"Director Lu, it's about to be screened, don't keep us in suspense, tell us quickly."

Lu Xuan didn't say anything, just smiled without saying a word.

Seeing Lu Xuan like this, Li Jie shook his head helplessly, changed the subject, and asked:

"So, Director Lu, what are your plans next?"

"The box office of *Hero* is bound to be a big hit, you should also consider your next move."

Lu Xuan immediately understood what Li Jie meant, thought for a moment, and said:

"Although *Hero* is a commercial film, I still want to send it to be judged for awards, so I probably won't be filming another movie in the short term."

"Director Lu, you're not planning to take a break for a while, are you?"

Chen Daoming asked with a strange expression.

"Of course, I want to spend a good time in our sweet world with Su Yao, I haven't had a good rest during this time, now that such a big project has landed, it's time."

Chen Daoming was originally joking, but he didn't expect Lu Xuan to admit it like this.

Lu Xuan wants to take a break for a while!?

A trace of surprise flashed in Chen Daoming's eyes!

Because Lu Xuan's current status in the entertainment industry can be said to be at its peak!

In this state, no matter what kind of work Lu Xuan comes up with, the audience will buy it.

This means that he is now a guarantee of box office success!

Taking a break now is a waste of this traffic.

"Director Lu, would you like to reconsider, our schedules have been empty recently!"

Li Jie couldn't help but interject.

This sentence was almost a clear indication to Lu Xuan that he wanted to participate in Lu Xuan's next work.

Lu Xuan shook his head with a wry smile.

"Look at you guys, I'm just taking a break for a while, I'm not filming movies for the time being."

"I'm not a robot, I should also take a break for a while, but it's not a complete rest, I plan to shoot a TV series to play with during this time, but it's just a small investment, it can be considered a rest."

Looking at the fatigue in the depths of Lu Xuan's eyes, Chen Daoming didn't say anything more.

Li Jie frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Director Lu, I saw that a novel on your company's novel website is very famous, it seems to be called *Xianjia Qixia Zhuan*."

"You're not planning to film this one, are you?"

Listening to Li Jie's guess, Lu Xuan nodded knowingly.

Although he didn't say it clearly, anyone with eyes could guess it.

After all, *Xianjian* is one of the most popular Xianxia (immortal hero) IPs right now.

With such an IP in hand, no one would be indifferent.

Seeing that Lu Xuan really planned to film *Xianjian Qixia Zhuan*.

Li Jie said with some excitement: "Really?"

"I'm actually a fan of this novel, and I've been following the film and television adaptation of this book. Now that you mention it, I can't miss it!"

"Director Lu, should we cooperate again?"

Lu Xuan thought about the characters in *Xianjian Qixia Zhuan*, but for a moment he couldn't find a role that matched Li Jie.

He could only decline politely:

"There's no rush, let's talk about it when the time comes, don't worry, we'll have plenty of opportunities to cooperate!"

Lu Xuan's meaning was very straightforward, and Li Jie wasn't annoyed.

He just nodded with some regret.

He believed in Lu Xuan's vision.

Li Hao, who had been silent behind him, suddenly chimed in: "Director Lu, do you think there's a suitable role for me? Otherwise, let me try it?"

The filming of *Zhen Huan Zhuan* was on the right track, so he had some free time recently.

He had the mind to get involved in *Xianjian*.

Lu Xuan looked up and down at Brother Gun'er.

A character suddenly popped into his mind.

Although it was just a cameo, he still had a few lines!

So, Lu Xuan agreed.

Just as Li Hao was about to continue speaking, the lights in the room had gradually dimmed.

Everyone sat down.

On the giant screen of the movie theater, the golden dragon logo appeared.

The *Hero* movie began!
