The Long-awaited Mr Han

Even if she considered the popularity of just a single actor, it would still be an instant kill for Red Tiger.

"Lu Man, do you remember when we were going to the set of Red Tiger, we met Qiao Luna in the First Class lounge at the airport? Turns out that day she was going to the set of Fighting Hero." Just now, Hu Zhonghui called Lu Man.

On the other hand, Ji Cheng was also extremely anxious. These past few days, he had been so anxious, tattering his teeth all the time. "They must be doing this on purpose! They are considering us as push-overs and bullying us!"

"Director Ji, right now the movie has yet to premiere, so it's hard to tell how it would turn out. Please don't start losing your footing and getting so anxious. No matter what, we must still keep our morale up. Otherwise, if Fighting Hero sees us right now, we would have lost even before competing, and won't this just only help to build their morale and confidence?" Lu Man could only encourage him like this.

"I understand everything that you're saying, but I…" Ji Cheng sighed in frustration. "Ok, I get it, I will hold it in. No matter what I also won't show my fear in front of others."

"Director Ji, I know that you've put in a lot for this movie, you even put in all of your own money into this film, but you must remain confident and have faith in your movie. No matter how strong Fighting Hero is, you still have the 2 billion yuan guaranteed investment. No matter who your opponent is, you already have 2 billion yuan box office investment the box office on hand, you won't really lose out to anyone. What you need to worry about is how much we can win them by, how beautiful our win would be," Lu Man <anno data-annotation-id="ce5c6018-edf5-4295-9e05-6dcc2ab92c0c">said</anno>.

Ji Cheng smiled bitterly. "It's precisely because of the 2 billion yuan guaranteed investment that I am in so much stress. What if the movie's box office doesn't earn that much, and won't Master Han lose out then, how can I still face Master Han?"

"Director Ji, other than being the CEO of Han Corporation and one of the investors in Red Tiger, he's more so my boyfriend. Please believe in me, I won't let my boyfriend make any losses. To put it more bluntly, he only invested so much because of me, and not for you, so I'm even under more pressure than you are."

Ji Cheng: "…"

She couldn't be any more straightforward.

But of course, it did make him feel a lot more comfortable and at ease.

"Alright." Ji Cheng gritted his teeth and nodded. " Your final exams are just around the corner too, so I won't disturb you any longer. We'll talk again after your exams."

Therefore, Lu Man placed all of her efforts and focus on her finals.

Her finals were split into two parts, Cultural Studies, and Professional Performance. So, Lu Man used all of her free time to revise her work.

"Haha, what's the point of her cramming so much at the last minute now?"

"That's right, at the start, when Xiaoying entered this university she had first place in Cultural Studies and Professional Performance. Not only Lu Man had taken a break from school for two years, but she also took another two months of leave. She only attended a few days of lessons and she's aspiring to get good grades? If she can get good grades so easily, what would that make people who usually focus on our studies and take them seriously?"

"Originally, she could rely on Red Tiger's results to add some points for her and leave a pretty record on her resume, but now Red Tiger might flop too, it's going to clash with Fighting Hero, it's going to be a blast!"

A bunch of people in the class were eagerly waiting for ill fate to befall on Lu Man.

Even those students who usually didn't have any conflict with Lu Man were also waiting for a chance to laugh at her and ridicule her.

"Lu Man, don't care about what they say," Zheng Yuanshi said solemnly, "They are just being bitter!"

"In our class, other than Zhang Xiaoying, it's only you who got to go out and film shows in Year One. They don't dare to talk about Zhang Xiaoying but they have the guts bully you." Han Leilei couldn't take it either. "What's up with them! If they really have what it takes, why don't they take on a show on their own too! If there really is a good opportunity, the school won't hold them back either!"

"I'm fine." Lu Man shook her head. "Right now, I don't even care about them."
