"Xu Lu, why do I feel like a lot of people are watching us? What's going on?"
I just entered the screening room.
Dilraba keenly sensed that many eyes were focused on her, and asked Xu Lu a question with some confusion.
Xu Lu smiled, looked at the audience, and said:
"It's okay, they're all from our company. They're probably just curious about your identity."
"Come on, let's take our seats first, it'll start shortly."
Because the screening room contained not only employees of Daxu Culture Media, but also other audience members who had purchased tickets.
So when everyone saw Mr. Xu and the woman sit down, they just whispered among themselves and did nothing else.
And just as Xu Lu said.
The two had barely sat down when the entire screening room went dark; the movie was about to start.
...
Sitting in her seat, Dilraba wasn't really interested in watching the movie; she just found it very interesting.
I was still in Shanghai yesterday, and I never expected to fly to Hongcheng today and sit next to Xu Lu.
Taking advantage of the dark environment of the screening room, she brazenly looked at the figure next to her.
Before I could even finish glancing at it, Xu Lu's voice rang out:
"Hey, what are you doing? Look at the screen in front of you, the movie has started!"
Dilraba's face flushed, and she quickly looked at the screen, just in time to see the black and white opening sequence of the movie:
Some people are... lacking in iron, some are... lacking in calcium, and I... lack face the most...
Dilraba, who hadn't been really interested in watching a movie, suddenly got into the mood after hearing this.
Of course, it's also because of Xu Lu, who is appearing on screen as a character in the story.
The plot is unfolding slowly, scene by scene.
In the film, Xia Luo gets drunk at his crush's wedding, then gets chased by his wife with a kitchen knife, eventually hiding in the bathroom...
"Hahaha, this guy is hilarious. He's gone too far with his showing off. I wonder how he's going to clean this up now."
"He should have been carefree, but now his wife has driven him crazy, hehehehe, this line is interesting."
"They're all just pretending to be classmates. This guy named Yuan Hua is hilarious too, but how will the story unfold next?"
"That's interesting. I initially came for the songs, but now it seems the movie might be pretty good too."
...
Besides the audience who bought tickets themselves.
The employees of Daxu Culture Media were also very surprised at this moment.
Because only a handful of people in the entire company know the full plot of the film.
Most people only know fragments of the information.
So when everyone saw the complete storyline, they felt it was quite novel.
The initial anxiety gradually dissipated as the plot unfolded.
"Holy crap, I didn't realize our movie was so funny, hahaha."
"I was a little worried that the box office would flop, but now it seems that we won't lose money."
"Mr. Xu's acting skills are amazing. I didn't realize it at the time, but now I feel it's incredibly powerful."
"Honey, look at Mr. Xu's clothes and everything else, I arranged them all. I also contributed to this movie!"
...
The employees of Daxu Culture were whispering amongst themselves.
The assistant temporarily put aside her gossipy thoughts and started bragging to her best friend:
"Xiao Tao, you'll see me soon! I'm in it too! Look, look, I'm in that seat over there."
"Xiao Ting, why doesn't the character you're playing even have a name?"
But before she knew it, her best friend, who had been envious for just a few seconds, suddenly asked a question that really hit home.
The assistant looked embarrassed and said irritably:
"Please, Xiaotao, I'm not from an acting background. It's already pretty good that I can play a minor role."
As the plot unfolds, viewers see that after 'Xia Luo' sobers up, she musters up the courage to open the door.
At this moment, the audience became worried for him, because his drunken outburst had caused quite a commotion.
Especially since he kissed someone else's bride and was caught by his own wife!
Such a socially awkward scene, if you put yourself in the audience's shoes, you wouldn't know how to cope with what happens next.
On the screen, Xia Luo opened the door, and it seemed as if golden light shone outside.
The next moment, Xia Luo froze on the spot.
The camera rotates.
The audience also saw what 'Xia Luo' saw: it was actually an ordinary high school classroom.
"Huh, what's going on? Weren't they just causing trouble at someone's wedding? How did they end up in the classroom?"
"Wow! This plot twist is amazing, I never expected this."
"Did the protagonist travel through time? The movie actually features time travel elements, that's such a pleasant surprise!"
"Xia Luo was dumbfounded. She probably thought she was drinking fake alcohol, hahaha..."
...
The audience members were whispering among themselves, but the employees of Daxu Culture remained remarkably calm this time.
After all, they knew the inside story, and although they found it interesting, they weren't as surprised as the average viewer.
Reba, who was sitting next to Xu Lu, finally couldn't help but ask:
"Xu Lu, what happened to 'Xia Luo'? Did he really reincarnate? Did he return to his high school classroom?"
However, Xu Lu kept everyone in suspense, smiling as he said:
"Just keep reading, I won't spoil it for you, spoilers have terrible consequences."
"Tch! Fine, watch it yourself then. But your movie is actually quite interesting!"
