Leading actors in the comedy love story "Contract Lover", Fan Bingbing and Richie Ren, met with media in Shanghai on Tuesday.

The movie, adapted from a popular online novel, tells of a romance occurring in China's metropolis. It reflects the collisions and conflicts between traditional concepts and modern ideas in narrating its love story.

Uniquely for a press conference, a unique group-wedding ceremony was also held during the event. Several young couples made their life-long pledges with the witness of the movie entourage.

The movie is slated for public release in Chinese theatres on August 16.
