Chapter 248: The Stamped and Certified Yang Guo

Carrying the drowsy Senior sister onto the RV, and then returning to the hotel all the way.

When walking into the room.

The other party finally recovered a bit of spirit.

After finding a doctor to look at her and confirming that she was just too cold, the group of people who followed into Li Luo's suite all let out a breath.

"Alright."

As the big sister with the oldest age at the scene, Meng Guangmei clapped her hands hard: "Everyone is quite cold, go back and rest early; I'll take care of Zihan, and borrow Li Luo's bathtub to let her take a bath."

"Don't stay here, go do whatever you need to do."

Liu Qianqian wanted to open her mouth to ask if she should change to her room; after all, this was a place where men lived, and it was somewhat inconvenient.

But thinking of her mother, she closed her mouth helplessly.

Fortunately, Sister Meng was here watching.

There was no need to worry that there would be any inconvenient situations later.

"Li Luo, help take care of her a bit."

Scratching his mustache, Yu Min didn't forget to add a sentence.

"No problem."

Hammering his waist casually, Li Luo turned back and fell onto the sofa to sit down, and picked up the remote control to turn on the TV; what he promised and what he did were completely two different things, but it was precisely this action.

That made everyone stop thinking wildly.

What was said about helping to take care of her wasn't really asking him to support her into the bathroom.

And there was nothing to think wildly about.

Except for Meng Guangmei, both of their assistants were still there.

What could be done.

Although wearing wetsuits, everyone was frozen quite badly.

They didn't stay anymore.

Soon they said goodbye and left one after another.

Even if there was no bathtub, they had to hurry and take a hot bath; don't look at how they tossed for a whole journey when going down the mountain, their whole bodies still felt icy cold, and that coldness hadn't passed yet.

The noise in the living room soon died down.

Noticing Li Luo watching the TV seriously, Wang Ou poured him more than half a glass of foreign liquor.

Coming to the front of the sofa.

Wang Ou's attention shifted to the TV, and an expression of extreme envy floated in her eyes, and she couldn't help but sit down to watch: "I don't know how this movie is filmed; the heroine is so beautiful!"

"She is beautiful."

Li Luo nodded in deep agreement, taking out a cigar and lighting it slowly: "The King of Comedy has made a move; this movie definitely won't be bad."

*Kung Fu, Premiere Press Conference*

In the TV screen, the first thing that came into view was such a bright line of big characters.

Then there were familiar faces one after another—the Landlady, the mute girl, Fatty Cong, and others stood under the conference table with the film company's high-level management, accepting the crazy baptism of flashlights.

After a long wait.

Huang Shengyi ushered in the high-light moment of her life.

The movie *Kung Fu* officially entered the promotion period, and the Shanghai girl could finally enjoy the glory in front of the stage to her heart's content.

At this time, the other party was wearing a red Tang suit, standing beside the King of Comedy with a smile, located in the most dazzling position of the entire press conference site, accepting the siege of long guns and short cannons.

According to his understanding of her, Huang Shengyi must be sweating from her palms with excitement at this moment.

Sweating is a small matter.

This kind of scene, ordinary people really have a hard time handling.

It would be not bad if the Shanghai girl could keep calm.

Only to see in the press conference site replayed on TV, reporters filled the entire conference hall, absolutely cameras standing like a forest, Zhou Xingchi was beside her, and on the other side was the film company boss.

For a newcomer, this was simply a "King Bomb" opening.

In fact, during this period of time, Huang Shengyi had already become synonymous with the lucky one at the Beijing Film Academy.

Coming up was the masterpiece of the King of Comedy.

How many people.

Didn't even dare to dream of it!

"Yeah."

Handing the wine glass to the boss, Wang Ou said extremely enviously: "Just based on the three words 'Zhou Xingchi,' the movie box office definitely won't be bad; I heard the heroine is still a newcomer; it's really too lucky!"

"Indeed lucky."

Sipping the wine, Li Luo took out his phone, flipped to a phone number, and dialed it.

Before it connected, he put it far away.

"Ah!!!"

The moment the beeping sound disappeared, an ear-piercing scream came from the Nokia receiver; just based on this movement, one could judge the degree of the other party's excitement.

This scream gave Wang Ou a big scare.

He had made many calls.

This was the first time for such an opening line.

The excited scream lasted for several good seconds before it finally died down; Li Luo then picked up the phone and put it to his ear, saying happily: "Look how excited you are; I'm watching the press conference."

"How is it? How is it?"

Huang Shengyi was rolling on the bed over there.

Biting the cigar in his mouth, Li Luo hit her without any politeness: "Whoever chose this red Tang suit for you, it looks so old-fashioned; you don't know how to answer questions, you just know how to sit beside Zhou Xingchi and giggle!"

Listening to these words, Wang Ou looked at the picture on the TV with straight eyes.

Red Tang suit, sitting beside.

She instantly extracted the key information points and locked her gaze on the heroine.

"Ah, Li Luo!"

Huang Shengyi screamed again, smashing a fist into the pillow in annoyance: "This girl will give you another chance; reorganize your language."

"Tsk tsk."

Shaking his head, Li Luo said happily: "Little girl, can you be a bit more elegant? The clothes are indeed old-fashioned, but it can't stop the person from being fresh and lively; looking at it, it's the style of a big star!"

"Remember to sign for me when we meet another day, so I can go out and show off."

"Hahaha."

Huang Shengyi was so happy she hugged the pillow tightly.

"Bo bo~"

The girl grabbed the phone and kissed it in the air several times to show her satisfaction with his attitude, and then said softly: "I'm so tired from running promotions every day; my legs are all sour."

"Brother Luo~~~"

"Come and help me rub them, okay!"

"I also just finished filming."

Li Luo didn't change his expression on his face, saying to himself: "No matter what, congratulations on your big box office success first!"

"Hmph~"

Huang Shengyi understood instantly, hummed lightly, and replied: "Then let's not talk for now; I still have five hours to sleep, and I have to catch a flight for promotion later!"

After congratulating her simply, Li Luo hung up the phone.

"Boss?"

Wang Ou really couldn't help but be curious.

"Classmate."

Smiling, Li Luo gave an explanation casually.

Wang Ou smacked her lips and shook her head with emotion; actors from professional classes are just different; turning around, they can always meet familiar people; if they have a good relationship and pull each other, it's a small force.

Her kind of wild path couldn't compare at all.

Soon she collected her mind.

Looking at the boss's profile with a smile.

The heroine of *Kung Fu* is a lucky one; fortunately, her luck is also not bad; now that she has signed with Brother Luo's studio, there will definitely be no lack of opportunities to film in the future!

"Handsome?"

Noticing the girl's gaze, Li Luo asked coldly.

"Handsome!"

Wang Ou didn't hesitate for half a second.

Picking up the wine glass, Li Luo expressed agreement: "If it's handsome, hurry back and sleep; we have to continue work tomorrow."

"Alright."

Wang Ou picked up her things and bowed slightly seriously: "Brother Luo, rest early too."

With happy steps.

The tall girl left the suite nimbly.

Sipping the wine, Li Luo looked with emotion at the press conference continuing to be broadcast on TV; Zhou Xingchi's status really wasn't covered; at least Wu Dun, under Yu Dong's suggestion, decisively avoided the Spring Festival file.

Pressing the broadcast time of *SPL: Sha Po Lang* backward.

Although the story background was extremely different, everyone could be considered action movies.

Not to mention them.

Even if they had confidence in the quality of the movie, there weren't many directors in the entire circle who dared to jump out at this time and engage in a bayonet-to-bayonet fight with the same theme as Zhou Xingchi.

That person had been fighting all the way for more than ten years; he didn't know how many mountains of corpses and seas of blood he had stepped over, and he had countless defeated opponents.

There was no need to hit *Kung Fu* head-on.

Following mouthfuls of wine, Meng Guangmei and Chen Zihan's assistants also said goodbye and left one after another.

After the door closed.

Li Luo stood up biting the cigar and walked into the bedroom leisurely.

How could he not feel cold?

Even after drinking more than half a glass of wine, his hands and feet still felt a bit cold; soaking in the bathtub was naturally something he couldn't miss.

Clothes were thrown into the bamboo clothing basket one by one.

Li Luo walked toward the bathroom swaying, and pushed open the glass door that was left ajar with his hand.

The sound of running water inside rang out constantly; even if the bathtub was almost full, the faucet hadn't been turned off, continuing to add hot water to keep the temperature unchanged.

The fragrant and sexy picture in front of him made him suck on the cigar hard, and the long smoke rolled and drifted toward the front.

The mist drifted and quickly arrived above the water surface.

Adding a few more layers of haziness to the sexy bodies appearing and disappearing in the water.

Meng Guangmei and Chen Zihan were leaning against each other half-lying in the bathtub, enjoying the comfort brought by the hot water; the latter was even hiding under the faucet with blurred eyes.

Letting the clear water flow constantly hit her chest.

What a picture of two beauties bathing.

"Sss~"

Seeing Li Luo standing at attention and paying tribute, Meng Guangmei couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"I can't."

Chen Zihan shook her head weakly, muttering in her mouth: "You and Sister Meng do it; I haven't caught my breath yet; now my whole body is sour, and I don't have any strength."

"I'm tired too~"

Meng Guangmei leaned against Guo Fu's exquisite shoulders, also indicating that she had the heart to go into battle, but no strength to kill the thieves.

"What are you all thinking!"

Li Luo walked into the bathtub without any politeness, squeezed in between the two soft girls, holding a cigar in his mouth and holding them left and right: "Just rest well; it's not bad to just soak in the bath quietly like this."

Sometimes, one still had to provide some emotional value.

No need to do anything.

Just need to stay together quietly.

It's a kind of enjoyment.

Holding Li Mochou in his left hand and Guo Fu in his right, Li Luo leaned his head comfortably on the soft packaging decoration of the bathtub, narrowed his eyes from the heat of the hot water.

Meng Guangmei was obviously also enjoying the current atmosphere, took the cigar he was biting, and took a deep breath.

Then passed it to Chen Zihan's mouth.

The smoke curled up, drifting across 2004.

Officially entering 2005.

Once *Kung Fu* was released, it presented an invincible momentum.

That "Who else!!!" from Xiaogang Pao.

Rang through all parts of the country.

The Tathagata Palm descending from the sky strongly suppressed the movies released in the same file.

The mute girl played by Huang Shengyi, although she didn't have many scenes, her pure appearance and that line of clear tears made her quickly jump from a nobody to one of the hottest actresses at the moment.

Truly staged what is called "becoming famous overnight."

Running promotions, going on programs, shooting magazines, and various activities occupied all her time except for eating and sleeping.

Although she was so tired that she was swaying when walking, Huang Shengyi was completely addicted to the light of the spotlight, throwing all other things behind her head, indulging in enjoying the feeling of being the center of attention.

Also during this period of time.

All members of the *Return of the Condor Heroes* crew, although suffering great torment physically and mentally, extremely tenaciously completed the location shooting work at Mount Yandang.

When the last shot was finished, all the actors hugged each other excitedly.

Those with rich emotions burst into tears directly.

Two months of climbing mountains and wading through rivers finally came to an end here.

No need to see stairs and shiver anymore.

The crew bid farewell to Mount Yandang, and the mighty motorcade formed a long dragon and moved toward Xiangshan, rushing directly to the Condor Hero Film and Television City, officially entering the filming of indoor scenes and the Battle of Xiangyang City.

But before that, the first thing ushered in was the launch ceremony.

That's right.

The *Return of the Condor Heroes* crew prepared three launch ceremonies, and each one was more grand than the last.

To be honest, Li Luo felt a bit dumbfounded.

But the crew had needs.

Just cooperate.

January 10, 2005.

The *Return of the Condor Heroes* launch ceremony at Xiangshan Film and Television City was officially held; just after eight o'clock in the morning, the actors who had finished makeup and put on costumes boarded various vehicles one after another, rushing to the launch site with full spirits.

When he came over last time, this place was just a big construction site.

After just a few months.

The film and television city could already be put into use.

Pulling aside the curtain, Li Luo looked steadily into the distance; red flags were fluttering on the gate tower of the film and television city, and huge curtains were hung directly on both sides of the city gate, welcoming guests with red backgrounds and yellow characters joyfully.

On the battlements of the city wall, colorful flags were fluttering.

A low stage was built on the open space in front of the city gate, red carpets were laid out, and colorful flowers surrounded it in a circle.

Looking at the surging crowd again, one could feel that enthusiastic atmosphere without even getting out of the car.

And the scene was even more formal.

The Condor Hero Film and Television City definitely counted as a big investment project in the local area; now that it ushered in the harvest moment, and it could also appear on TV, all kinds of people were dispatched one after another.

Making it so that at the launch ceremony site, administrative jackets and black suits could be seen everywhere.

The people mainly responsible for security work became "hat uncles"; in dealing with this kind of large-scale public activity, these people were obviously more experienced.

Also because of this reason.

The fans and media at the scene were many, but they weren't chaotic at all.

"Pfft~"

"Brother Luo, Brother Luo."

"Now all actors need to gather beside the stage; everyone needs to take a group photo and accept media interviews first, and then conduct the launch ceremony later; if there's nothing else, get out of the car!"

"Over."

Listening to the movement from the walkie-talkie, Li Luo turned his head to look at the few people playing cards.

The girls dressed differently threw away the poker in their hands one after another, and finally checked each other's appearance and dress.

After confirming there was no problem, it was another burst of high-fives.

Under Li Luo's lead, Yang Mi, Chen Zihan, and others walked out of the RV excitedly; there was food and drink here, and they would be fools to go sit in the commercial minibus.

"Senior."

The RV beside followed and opened.

Liu Qianqian looked at the crowd enviously and continued to wave to greet: "Who won?"

"Haha~" Yang Mi stepped forward and held her arm proudly: "That's naturally me; I am Guo Xiang, the undefeated female gambling saint in *Return of the Condor Heroes*."

"Very good."

Li Luo gave a thumbs-up and said with a smile: "Since the female gambling saint won money, there definitely won't be a problem with treating us to a barbecue tonight, right?"

"I think it makes a lot of sense."

"No problem."

"How about some beer? I can drink ice-cold today."

The chattering rang out in the surroundings instantly; when Lu Wushuang said she could drink ice-cold, she glanced at Li Luo quickly, but happened to meet his playful eyes, and the two smiled at each other knowingly.

"Ah???"

Yang Mi's face instantly collapsed, and she held up a finger pitifully: "I only won one hundred yuan, so are you all going to eat me into poverty?"

In the middle of the vehicles, a burst of laughter rang out instantly.

Liu Qianqian sighed lightly in her heart and also grinned.

She actually wanted to play along; it wasn't to win money, but completely wanted the happiness of playing with little partners; but her mother couldn't possibly agree, so she could only stay in the RV and sleep.

It was really depressing to the extreme.

"Everyone."

The sound of clapping hands rang out, and the producer walked over, greeting such a large group of people: "Perk up, Yang Guo and Shi Xiaolong Maiden, hurry over."

As long as it was a promotional occasion.

Li Luo and Liu Qianqian were inevitably the ones leading the charge.

Messy footsteps rang out, and a group of people walked out from between the two RVs; the actors in the commercial minibus beside also got out of the car one after another, greeting each other and merging into their team.

Even if only one person appeared, their dress was the most eye-catching existence.

Not to mention such a large group of people.

Instantly attracted the gaze of the people present.

Media reporters rushed over first to shoot crazily at the group of actors, followed by the screams of fans, and the villagers watching the fun also swarmed up, looking at the beauties excitedly.

Fortunately, with the obstruction of the "hat uncles," the actors weren't afraid.

One by one, they smiled and waved at the cameras.

Walking forward slowly.

Out of consideration for others, Li Luo and Liu Qianqian slowed down their pace simultaneously, and also greeted the rest of the actors to come over and face the cameras together.

Only in this way could many people get the opportunity to appear on camera.

"Hello."

Waving at the camera in front of him with a smile, Li Luo signaled to the girl beside him: "Let me introduce a little actor; actually, I've known her for many years, and I even changed her diapers."

"Ah?"

The reporters around were dumbfounded, looking blankly at the girl whose face was flushed.

Looking at it, the age difference didn't seem that big!

"Forgot."

Tapping his forehead lightly, Li Luo spread his hands embarrassedly: "This is actor Yang Mi, not the little Guo Xiang in the play."

The reporters behind the cordon burst into laughter.

"Hello everyone, I am Yang Mi."

The Beijing girl squeezed out a brilliant smile and waved at the camera.

Chatting simply for a few words.

Continuing to walk forward along the red carpet.

Yang Mi kept a smile on her face and gritted her teeth: "Couldn't you have introduced me in another way?"

"This is so good." Li Luo waved his palms everywhere and said happily: "I guarantee that when reporters write news, they will definitely remember your name; don't be polite with Brother Luo!"

"Not polite at all!!!"

Yang Mi continued to grit her teeth, crying without tears: "They will indeed remember, but the headlines will all be 'The Actress Li Luo Helped Change Diapers'."

"Hahaha!"

Laughing heartily at the camera, Li Luo bumped her shoulder lightly: "So what if it's this headline? At least people who see it will curiously click in to see it, right?"

"Attention and popularity are important?"

"Or is this bit of bland shame important?"

Yang Mi's pace couldn't help but slow down; she blinked quickly and looked at Li Luo's back, instantly realizing which was important.

Just didn't expect.

There could actually be this kind of reverse operation!

Amidst a noisy scene, the actors soon arrived at the pre-arranged gathering place, and reporters also walked in one after another with passes, excitedly conducting various interviews. 【

This time, it wasn't just targeting Li Luo and Liu Qianqian; many actors actually had quite a bit of news value.

Just as the scene was in chaos, an even greater commotion erupted again.

Zhang Jizhong pushed a wheelchair, slowly arriving at the assembly area.

The old man sitting in the wheelchair instantly captured the attention of the entire venue, and the light from the flashes swept toward him in an instant.

"Mr. Jin Yong, I didn't expect you to come to the opening ceremony today."

"Do you have anything you want to say to the audience?"

"Please look over here."

If the reporters had been in a professional work mindset before, seeing Jin Yong appear in the wheelchair made them instantly excited like fans, especially the male reporters, who were even more agitated.

For people of their age, most had the experience of secretly flipping through Jin Yong's works in class when they were students.

Seeing the real person now, they were naturally thrilled.

Of course, the urge to kill someone with a knife when they saw Shi Xiaolong Maiden being defiled back then was temporarily suppressed and left unmentioned.

*Swish. *

Li Luo flashed to the side of the wheelchair with lightning speed, respectfully extending both hands: "Greetings, Elder Jin, I am the actor Li Luo, playing Yang Guo in the drama."

The frequency of the flashes increased, capturing the image of him respectfully greeting the senior.

Don't spend all day helping others steal the spotlight.

When it's time to steal it yourself, you act all hesitant.

Li Luo's movements were anything but sluggish; before the other actors could react, his hands were already extended in front of Jin Yong.

There was some sense of admiration, to an extent.

He himself had once done the thing of hiding martial arts novels inside textbooks.

But nowadays, it was more about stealing the spotlight; Jin Yong's national popularity was top-tier, and Li Luo wouldn't miss the chance to grab the headlines.

"I remember you."

Jin Yong held his hand and looked up, asking: "Did you play Lin Pingzhi back then?"

With the big shot speaking, the scene instantly became quiet.

Only the sound of shutters clicking remained.

"That's right."

Squatting down naturally, Li Luo nodded with a smile: "The elder has a great memory; I did indeed play Lin Pingzhi back then and even had a photo taken with you. This time, I am playing Yang Guo."

"I hope I won't disappoint Elder Jin."

He was over eighty years old, so the title of "Elder" was well-deserved.

Coupled with Jin Yong's influence in the cultural sphere and the fact that he was currently making a living in this field, being a bit more polite was not excessive.

Old age brings wisdom, let alone for Jin Yong.

"I won't be disappointed!"

Jin Yong understood his meaning instantly and offered polite words readily: "Hu Zi, your choice for the lead is excellent; his appearance is very Yang Guo, and he played Lin Pingzhi very well back then."

"Yes."

Scratching his beard, Zhang Jizhong laughed heartily: "Not only is his appearance very Yang Guo, but Li Luo's martial arts skills are also very Yang Guo; his foundation is quite extraordinary, and his sword technique is exquisite."

"Really?"

Jin Yong immediately shifted his curious gaze to Li Luo.

Having written so many martial arts epics, it seemed unlikely that he wouldn't be interested in martial arts.

Good looks, good acting—if he also had a solid martial arts foundation.

The praise just now.

Was truly heartfelt!

"Where is the Gentleman Sword?"

Before Li Luo could speak, Zhang Jizhong shouted excitedly to the side: "Bring it over, hurry up and bring it over, let Li Luo perform a segment for Elder Jin."

Ever since he started filming Jin Yong's works.

The nitpicking of the original fans was the thing that gave him the biggest headache.

Although those people only made up a small portion of the fans, their combat power was undeniable; the harshest criticisms came from the original fans, and the key was that they were always well-reasoned, so he had to take the scolding.

If he could get the author's strong approval, it would definitely reduce the pressure on the production team.

It would be like getting an official seal of approval!

Hearing Zhang Jizhong's shout, the staff member in charge of props rushed over with a prop sword.

At the same time.

An open space quickly cleared around them.

Reporters, fans, production executives, Jin Yong, and the large group that had just arrived all looked with glowing eyes at Li Luo, who was squatting beside the wheelchair.

The cold wind howled, but it couldn't blow away the heat in their gazes.

Appreciation, curiosity, envy, and jealousy—sharp gazes pierced into him.

Wang Ou and Wu Yu excitedly held hands, nervously watching their boss, shouting "Go for it!" in their hearts.

Yang Mi also happily clutched her hem.

Her heart pounding with excitement.

Liu Qianqian watched Li Luo with glowing eyes, pinching her palm slightly; although she didn't understand why it suddenly became a solo performance for him, it didn't stop her from cheering for her handsome senior.

Chen Zihan, Meng Guangmei, Yang Rui, Ma Zhongjun, and others all watched that figure.

Worldly affairs are always intertwined with fortune and misfortune.

Don't look at it as a great opportunity; if you don't have the strength to pull it off, it's very easy to make a fool of yourself in public!

Because of this, many people felt worried.

Filming is one thing, and an impromptu performance is another, especially with so many people watching; the psychological pressure was immense. If this were someone with poor stress resistance.

Walking across the open space under everyone's gaze, they would be so flustered they wouldn't know which foot to step with first.

There were so many cameras recording on-site.

If there was real news of him making a fool of himself, the reporters wouldn't let it go easily.

"Alright."

Li Luo smiled calmly at Jin Yong and nodded humbly: "Then I shall show my incompetence. To be able to demonstrate a sword technique before Elder Jin in front of the Condor Hero City is my honor!"

"Catch the Gentleman Sword."

Zhang Jizhong knew this guy really had martial arts skills, and let out a sharp shout.

He threw his arm with force.

The prop sword he had just received soared into the air.

Toward the center of the cleared space.

Flying high.

The sunlight hit the exquisite scabbard, flashing a dazzling light that captured everyone's attention!

"Thanks!"

Another low roar made everyone quickly shift their attention.

Li Luo didn't even stand straight; he took advantage of the momentum to perform a backflip, landing steadily on the red carpet. Before the cheers could even start, he performed several more backflips, rapidly approaching the spot where the Gentleman Sword was falling.

His agile figure, combined with the sound of his thumping footsteps.

Shocked the entire venue.

Finally, using all his core strength, his entire body flipped into the air.

Just as his body rotated, he snatched the Gentleman Sword out of mid-air with quick eyes and fast hands.

*Swish~*

A mid-air split, cleanly and neatly spreading his legs.

*Bang. *

He landed steadily on the carpet.

Falling along with him were countless dropped jaws.

The cameras trembled slightly but were quickly steadied by the cameramen, who wouldn't miss a single detail.

Zhang Jizhong's fingers twitched.

He pulled out a few hairs from his beard.

His original intention was for Li Luo to run over and catch the sword to look cooler, but he never expected such a flashy move.

Before he could recover, the scene moved again.

Li Luo supported himself with one hand, his legs spinning with a whistle, and his whole body took advantage of the momentum to soar into the air. Before everyone could see what was happening, he was already standing steadily on the ground.

With a metallic *clang*.

The scabbard flew out of his hand, flying toward the corner like a shooting star.

The camera shifted rapidly.

With a soft *swish*, the scabbard was already inserted diagonally into the soil of a potted plant.

The force was so great.

It made the scabbard tremble.

When the gaze shifted back to Li Luo, he was standing tall, holding the sword against his forearm, then neatly pushing his hands forward to perform a handsome sword salute to Jin Yong in the wheelchair.

"Good!"

Jin Yong was a bit stunned and dumbfounded, hurriedly bowing to return the salute.

He had thought.

It would be the usual "you're good, I'm good, everyone's good" situation.

The male lead comes out, waves a few times, he gives a perfunctory cheer, says a few lukewarm nice words, and the matter is settled.

He was used to this kind of situation.

But looking at it now, it was completely different from what he had imagined.

"Good!!!"

After the young actors who viewed Li Luo as their backbone came to their senses, cheers erupted one after another.

【Dancing with the sword before Jin Yong, enjoying the glorious moment】

【Indulgence successful】

【Reward: Seven Stars Sword Technique (Mastery)】

Amidst this commotion, Li Luo, already feeling his heart surge, saw a system prompt appear instantly before his eyes. Countless exquisite details about the Seven Stars Sword Technique flooded into his mind, without any further obstruction.

Flashing his white teeth, he slowly closed his eyes under everyone's gaze.

The next moment.

His eyes snapped open.

A terrifying, brilliant light erupted from them.

His body moved, and a flash of sword light lit up the center of the venue like a clear spring, twisting and turning like a swimming dragon.

As his legs circled rapidly, his arms thrust forward with force.

Dots of cold stars.

Flickered everywhere before everyone's eyes.

The whistling sound of the air being cut made everyone retreat in fear wherever the sword light reached.

Fearing that if a sword strike landed.

They would immediately be decapitated.

There were actually quite a few people who had seen good sword performances; Zhao Jian, Zhang Jizhong, Yu Min, and Jin Yong were all among them.

Especially the latter; over the years, Jin Yong had been invited to visit and tour everywhere.

To be honest, he had been to many famous martial arts schools.

But in his view, others only had the form, while this young man before him had the spirit, carrying a fierce yet elegant momentum.

It is very difficult to possess this kind of momentum without having experienced life-and-death battles.

Looking at him, one didn't feel it was just a show.

If a sword strike whistled through, it could truly unleash astonishing destructive power.

Flashes of sword light flickered.

Everyone on site watched, mesmerized.

It wasn't until Li Luo thrust his sword diagonally into the high air, performed an extremely graceful sword flourish, and then stood sideways with the Gentleman Sword on his back that the entire Seven Stars Sword dance came to an end.

A cold wind blew, causing his elegant long hair to flutter.

Sword-like brows and star-like eyes.

What a dashing swordsman!

The scene fell silent, and everyone quietly looked at the man standing sideways in the center of the venue with the sword on his back.

It was as if an ancient swordsman had truly crossed the river of time.

And arrived quietly before them.

"Good, good, good."

After three consecutive "goods," Jin Yong held onto the armrests of his wheelchair and slowly stood up, looking at the man before him with nothing but appreciation: "From now on, you are the Yang Guo in my heart!"

As the words fell, thunderous applause exploded.

Pairs of excited eyes looked at the swordsman in the center of the venue, with a short, square-faced man in the crowd being particularly excited, his hands clapping until they were red without even noticing.

Li Luo hurriedly cupped his hands, repeatedly expressing that he didn't deserve such praise.

A faint smile hung on his face, and he appeared extremely humble.

After this performance.

He successfully took the top prize of the Xiangshan opening ceremony.

Before he could even move, the people around swarmed forward, taking photos with him one after another.

Li Luo naturally didn't refuse anyone.

It took quite a while before things finally calmed down.

Taking advantage of the time when the other actors went to greet Jin Yong, he took the water bottle Wu Yu handed him and took a gulp of coffee.

Don't look at it as just a few minutes of practice.

Under the condition of putting all his spirit and energy into it, it still consumed a lot of physical strength.

"Hello."

Just as he closed the lid, a greeting sounded from behind him.

Wiping the corner of his mouth, Li Luo quickly entered business mode and turned around with a smile.

Preparing to welcome a photo opportunity.

But when he saw a smiling face full of wrinkles, his smile became somewhat sluggish, and his eyelashes blinked rapidly; for a moment, he couldn't believe his eyes.

In the next ten-plus years, in the turbulent world of the internet.

This was a figure that could never be bypassed.

He never expected that the other party would appear before him so suddenly.

"Ma Yun."

With his palm extended steadily toward Li Luo, this man, whose appearance had nothing worth praising and who was short in stature but possessed immense personal charisma, looked very excited: "Very happy to meet you."

"What sword technique were you performing just now?"

"Too handsome!"

Li Luo recalled that this man, who wasn't interested in money, had an extremely strong interest in martial arts.

And he was also a huge fan of Jin Yong.

Appearing at the opening ceremony of *The Return of the Condor Heroes* seemed perfectly normal.

"Hello, Mr. Ma."

Li Luo smiled and shook the other's hand, shaking it slightly: "I'm also very happy to meet you. That was the Seven Stars Sword Technique. I wonder if Mr. Ma is saying that I am handsome, or that the sword technique is handsome?"

The merits and demerits of the other party were not for him to evaluate, and he was too lazy to do so.

Matters at that level.

Were not something ordinary people could understand.

In general, this was a powerful person with immense personal charisma, and making friends with him was never a bad thing.

"Hahaha."

Ma Yun laughed immediately, shaking his arm with great boldness: "Why ask that? Of course, both are handsome. But I'm very curious, how did you recognize me?"

At this moment, he hadn't reached the level where "everyone under heaven knows him."

Although he had fame.

It was still concentrated in the commercial field.

He didn't expect the other party to recognize him at a glance.

"Of course I recognize you." Li Luo smiled, and polite words came naturally: "I quite like surfing the internet in my spare time. By the way, come to think of it, I'm actually your customer!"

"Is that true?"

Ma Yun was very surprised.

"Of course it's not false."

Li Luo continued to hold his hand.

"Come, come, come." Ma Yun shook his arm vigorously again and said with rapid speed: "Since that's the case, I have to ask about your user experience. What do you think of my Taobao?"

He certainly had opinions, and a whole bunch of them at that.

As for the various functions launched by that shopping website, any veteran netizen could list a whole bunch of them.

It could definitely help Ma Yun avoid many detours.

Because those were all verified by time and belonged to successful paths.

But they were strangers with no connection.

Li Luo didn't need to do the other party this favor.

Giving the other party ideas wouldn't earn him a single cent, and he would have to rack his brains to prove himself—it was purely thankless work.

"Well, it's not very convenient to use."

He thought carefully and responded casually: "You have to go to the bank to remit money, and you have to go to the post office to pick up goods. To be honest, it feels quite troublesome. Mr. Ma, please don't mind me being so direct."

He had indeed bought things before, purely out of curiosity.

Li Luo stopped using it very quickly.

It was too much trouble.

These were common user experiences, and he wasn't afraid of affecting anything by saying them.

"Of course not."

Ma Yun smiled proudly and finally let go of his hand: "Actually, I've already solved the first problem this month. I just launched a payment tool, and it will be much more convenient soon."

"That's great."

Li Luo immediately gave a thumbs up.

Regardless, some of the things the other party did had indeed made things convenient for many people.

"You must use eBay too, right?"

Ma Yun couldn't help but ask curiously: "Actually, from your perspective, which business model do you prefer?"

Taobao wasn't the sole dominant player yet, and there were quite a few shopping websites.

Even in terms of market share, they were still at a disadvantage, and eBay was the big brother. Now that he had the chance to contact a first-line customer, he couldn't suppress his desire to learn more.

"I would choose Taobao."

Li Luo spread his hands and said with a serious expression: "I'm not flattering you, Mr. Ma, but I prefer your free model. The fee-based model is definitely going to be incompatible with the current online shopping market."

"The number of domestic netizens is expanding rapidly; finding ways to attract customers is the true royal road."

"Incompatible, expanding rapidly, attract customers."

Ma Yun muttered to himself, his eyes glowing as he looked at Li Luo; he didn't expect a young actor to have such a sharp and insightful understanding of the internet.

This also strengthened his previous idea.

"Li Luo."

Ma Yun decisively issued an invitation, lifting his chin: "How about this? Since you know my company, are you interested in being the spokesperson for Taobao?"

That sword dance just now made him realize instantly that the effect of this TV series would definitely not be bad.

And he was such a popular young actor.

It matched the temperament of the young Taobao.

Furthermore.

The current online shopping crowd was basically young people, and the other party's influence among the youth was definitely not bad. He might as well sign him as a spokesperson to further erode eBay's market share.

"It would be my greatest honor."

Li Luo raised his eyebrows; this time it was his turn to extend his palm first.

Amidst a burst of laughter.

Ma Yun shook his hand firmly.
