Chapter 84 'Infernal Affairs II' Premiere

The host then began to cue the proceedings.

The host first cued the directors. Director Liu and Director Mai both spoke, discussing the highlights of the film.

Next, it was time to talk about the actors.

The esteemed Liu Jialing and Zeng Zhiwei were praised first, followed by Yu Wenle.

Finally, finally.

Director Liu and Director Mai particularly praised Su Han.

"In all my years of filmmaking, Su Han is the first truly extraordinary young person I've encountered."

"This is the first time I've met someone who could get every take perfect on the first try."

"This has never happened before. So, when filming scenes involving Su Han, it was very fast."

"I've also seen rumors online about Su Han, saying he doesn't take his acting seriously or something."

"I'm in the best position to speak about this. This young man is very serious. Every take was exactly what I wanted, and every shot was perfect."

"I really, really like him."

"His performance in the film is truly brilliant. He's very different from his real self. I don't need to say more; you'll understand when you watch the movie."

Both Director Liu and Director Mai spoke in defense of Su Han, praising him.

Many reporters recorded this section of praise.

After the directors' questions were finished, it was Su Han's turn.

Although "Infernal Affairs 2" seemed to be the focus, the actual focus was Su Han.

This was because Su Han carried another focal point: the betting agreement.

The betting agreement between Su Han and Jiaxing could be considered the source of Su Han's spotlight for this entire year.

At this critical juncture, reporters immediately turned their attention to Su Han, with everyone's focus landing squarely on him.

"Mr. Su Han, what is your attitude towards your betting agreement with Zhang Zhan? Do you think you will win against him?"

"Su Han, I heard Zhang Zhan also worked very hard on his film this time. Do you feel nervous knowing that?"

"Su Han, the role this time is reportedly a villain. We saw you on 'Back to Field' mention that you had some difficulty getting out of character while playing this role. How are you doing now? What specifically made it difficult to get out of character?"

...

A barrage of questions was fired at Su Han. Viewers watching the livestream also widened their eyes, filled with curiosity and, like the reporters, eager to know Su Han's answers.

"OMG, they mentioned Zhang Zhan again. This reporter is so malicious! Stirring up trouble every day."

"Exactly, reporters these days are terrible. They know nothing but how to stir up trouble."

"Su Han was so concerned about our Zhang Zhan on 'Back to Field.' Su Han is a very nice person! Reporters, save your energy and focus on people's work."

"Uh... I'm not so sure about that. Zhang Zhan and Su Han are naturally rivals. I'm actually looking forward to seeing them clash. This betting agreement means they'll be enemies forever!"

"Heh, of course, our Brother Zhang Zhan's work is better! His project has been in preparation for ten years, this isn't child's play."

...

At this moment, Yang Mi, sitting in the audience, gazed intently at Su Han on stage.

She was even more nervous than Su Han.

All eyes were on Su Han, waiting for his answers to the upcoming questions.

"First, I'll answer the first question. To be precise, it's not a betting agreement between me and Mr. Zhang Zhan, but a betting agreement between me and Jiaxing. Of course, it can also be understood as a comparison with Zhang Zhan."

"Within a year, to outperform him in terms of performance, I am confident. It's been over two months now, and there are ten months left. I believe I can do it."

Su Han spoke with great confidence and certainty.

It was as if he had already mastered all the answers, was fully prepared, and had nothing to fear.

Su Han's statement further excited the reporters present.

The media reporters present seemed to go mad, frantically raising their cameras, clicking away incessantly, in a frenzy.

It also ignited fervent discussions among netizens.

Fierce debate.

"OMG??? Su Han is truly amazing. I thought he would offer some pleasantries, especially in such a public setting, he wouldn't be so direct. But I didn't expect him to be so blunt, it's truly astonishing."

"My God, this, this, isn't this declaring war openly?"

"OMG, this is so exciting."

"To surpass Zhang Zhan in a year, that's quite difficult."

"I admire his ambition! Young man, you deserve praise. Keep working hard, you have the opportunity to surpass our Brother Zhang Zhan, but Zhang Zhan's premiere is tomorrow, and whether you can win then is not yet certain."

"Surpassing Zhang Zhan is indeed not that easy."

"I appreciate his confidence! Brother, maintain your confidence!"

"Next, I'll answer the second question."

Su Han continued his response.

"Wait until you've seen both films, then ask me that question. Let's skip this one!"

"For the third question, the character Ni Yongxiao is truly deeply ingrained in people's minds. I can really empathize with his circumstances in the film and feel pain for the character. I wasn't depressed, though. I regulate my emotions quite quickly. After all, 'Back to Field' isn't just for fun, right? I went there to travel and relax, it was quite pleasant."

Su Han provided three answers to the reporters' three questions.

"Hahaha, treating 'Back to Field' as a trip, I've never heard a guest say that before."

"The oddest of the odd."

"This guy is so real. He treated going to 'Back to Field' as a trip for relaxation. Other celebrities go there and treat it as publicity, but he just didn't take it seriously, treating it like a vacation."

"This sense of ease is killing me! This guy doesn't seem like a celebrity for the first time; he seems very experienced!"

"Listening to him, I'm very interested in this movie."

"Zhang Zhan's film also premieres tomorrow. We'll be able to compare the two then and know the results."

"So excited!"

Yang Mi took a deep breath, "Thank goodness!"

"Mi Jie!"

Just as Yang Mi was sighing deeply, Dilraba's voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

Dilraba had indeed arrived at the last moment, dressed very discreetly, completely covered, making her unrecognizable.

"What are you doing?"

"I came to watch Brother Su Han's premiere! I finally made it, I thought I was going to be late!"

At this moment, Yang Chaoyue also arrived and took her seat.

"Phew! Made it!"

"Alright! Then we will now proceed to screen the movie 'Infernal Affairs 2'."

The host cued the next part of the program.

"Let Director Liu, Director Mai, and our actors take their seats and watch the movie!"

Some fans began to whisper amongst themselves, filled with anticipation.

"Wow!!! They're going to play it!"

"So excited!"

"Thrilled, I wonder how Su Han's performance will be this time?"

"I heard he plays a very handsome villain! Super excited!"
