Chapter 936: 935 Snow White

Something seems a little off–

Li Wei looks like the superstar, and Hemsworth looks like the sidekick.

This must be an illusion, right? Surely, it’s just an illusion. The “Sexiest Man Alive” chosen by *People* magazine back in 2014 couldn’t have fallen so far, could he?

Seriously thinking about it, it’s probably because of Li Wei’s performance just now–effortlessly navigating the press and commanding the room. His presence, a solid 3.8 meters of charisma, stunned the reporters into submission. So now, seeing Li Wei and Hemsworth together must trigger some kind of psychological effect, making Hemsworth seem like the sidekick.

Yes, it has to be an illusion!

However, as time went on, things began to feel increasingly…off.

One by one, the key figures from *Avengers 4* began to arrive.

Jeremy Renner, Paul Rudd, Tom Holland, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Mark Ruffalo, and so on.

A strange phenomenon unfolded: Li Wei seemed like the North Pole of a magnet, while everyone else was the South Pole, naturally gravitating toward him. Gradually, a social circle formed, with Li Wei at the center.

Initially, the reporters joked around, saying Li Wei was like a panda and that Hollywood stars are always surrounded by actors–not surprising at all. But today, seeing an ambassador from another planet extending friendly relations left everyone unable to control themselves.

Thus, the *Avengers 4* premiere was transformed into a zoo.

Slowly but surely, the atmosphere began to shift.

The first to notice the oddity weren’t the reporters, but fans standing nearby.

Whispers of “Snow White,” “Seven Dwarves,” and similar chatter spread among them. The reporters didn’t get it at first, but looking in the direction of their gazes, they finally saw the truth–

Li Wei wasn’t a panda at all; he was Snow White!

And the ones surrounding him? Obviously the Seven Dwarves. So what about Hemsworth? Was he the Evil Queen?

Once this imagery popped into their heads, it was game over–they couldn’t unsee it.

The more they looked, the more vivid the scene became!

It was perfect chaos!

Hollywood journalists had always known this: when it came to *Avengers 4*, the average height of its cast wasn’t exactly stellar. Robert Downey Jr. famously relied on platform shoes to hold his own, while only the three Chrises could help maintain some semblance of dignity. But they’d never expected this–

The moment they put Li Wei in the equation, the contrast became shockingly apparent.

Those clustered around Li Wei instantly transformed into servants–if not dwarves, then what?

And once Robert Downey Jr. arrived, things would likely get even more unbearable.

What was going on here?

A group of Hollywood stars crowding around a football player at a movie premiere, only for the one who *actually* seemed like a star to be the football player?

Here’s the kicker: this was a superhero movie, but the person who truly looked like a superhero…hadn’t even acted in it!

In this teeming crowd, all attention was drawn to that one small social circle. Li Wei’s striking appearance and charisma effortlessly captured every gaze, locking in the spotlight.

Fresh off the Super Bowl, Li Wei had now become Hollywood’s newest focus of attention–

Tall, poised, strikingly refined. His elegant yet understated demeanor shone with a quiet brilliance, and tonight, clad in a simple suit, he radiated an irresistible charm that compelled attention without even trying.

On the red carpet, reporters had seen all kinds of bizarre attempts to stand out–wild showboating, flashy stunts, desperate cries for attention. Whether newcomers or seasoned stars, everyone craved the limelight, determined to make their mark amid the glittering competition.

But then there were exceptions.

People who could simply stand there–no outrageous outfits, no exaggerated moves–and still draw all eyes to them. Inadvertently, the crowd would double back for another look, unable to resist taking in their presence again, and again.

That’s what it meant to be a true star.

Hollywood hadn’t seen one like that in ages. The 21st century was often called the era without stars, with Leonardo DiCaprio hailed as Hollywood’s last true superstar. Times had changed; social media had diluted the mystique of fame, and the golden age had receded into history.

Until now.

Among the bustling throngs, in an endless sea of faces, Li Wei emerged effortlessly. Unmistakably.

Each time a gaze swept across him, the same thought escaped from astonished lips again and again–

That Louis Vuitton outfit? With every glance, it looked more flawless. Absolutely perfect.

Who could resist Li Wei?

Which leads to the question: if Li Wei were to play a superhero, which one would suit him best?

Wild fantasies began flying. The scene outside the Chinese Theater became extraordinarily lively.

But… who’d have thought? Li Wei ended up stealing the movie’s thunder. Was this really okay? Tomorrow’s entertainment headlines would be all about Li Wei–was that really all right?

And just imagine the scene.

Robert Downey Jr. showing up, standing next to Li Wei–the contrast would be brutal.

“Oh, no. No, no, no. That’s too much.”

Wait–who invited Li Wei to this premiere?

Seriously!

“Quick! Get him inside! Sit him down!”

The premiere became frantic and disjointed. Staff buzzed around like headless flies.

There was no way around it. Li Wei had become the undeniable focus of the red carpet; the staff struggled to figure out a way to guide him inside without bruising the egos of the actors.

Several staff members stammered and fumbled, failing to string together a coherent sentence.

In the end, the big boss stepped in.

Kevin Feige himself appeared, flashing a big smile as he invited Li Wei inside.

Li Wei was puzzled. “Iron Man isn’t here yet. I wanted to see him!”

Feige responded cheerily, “No rush, no rush! You can see him inside later. Let’s sit down first. You must be tired.”

Li Wei laughed, “Tired? Haha, you’re hilarious. That’s a good joke. But, seriously–I want to see Iron Man.”

Feige replied firmly, “No, you don’t.”

Meanwhile, news arrived from the front of the red carpet: Robert Downey Jr.’s car had entered the secured area and was steadily approaching the theater.

Feige raised his eyebrows meaningfully and enlisted the help of Scarlett Johansson. Scarlett and Chris Evans quickly caught on and moved toward Li Wei.

“Come on, come on! Let us introduce you properly to everyone in the Avengers.”

Li Wei: ???

Looking at Black Widow and Captain America standing before him, Li Wei sensed something was off. His grin widened as he wittily quipped–

“Hey, why do your expressions look like Batman just showed up unexpectedly? Relax, I didn’t come here to ruin your night. Look how well-behaved I am.”

Scarlett joked back, “Why Batman? Shouldn’t it be Superman?”

Li Wei grinned, “Because of his superpower.”

Evans chimed in, “Wait a second, what superpower? Batman doesn’t have any superpowers.”

Li Wei replied, “Oh, he does–and it’s pretty epic.”

Laughing all around, Scarlett and Evans escorted Li Wei into the screening hall. Meanwhile, the red carpet staff were drenched in sweat, but too frazzled to wipe it away. That was because Robert Downey Jr. had finally arrived.

Ahhh, ahhhhh!

Downey stepped out of his car, grinning ear to ear as he waved enthusiastically to the crowd of fans losing their minds, radiating the confidence of someone standing atop Mount Everest and owning the world.
