Nan Gongyu said, “I think that the first person we must thank for this movie is Lin Che.”
He actually showed Lin Che great respect, looking at her from here and saying to the cameras, “This movie only became better and reached an even better standard than what I had expected because Lin Che kept being at odds with me and arguing with me. Lin Youcai also convinced me with her professionalism. I think that domestic movies will only become better and better because of actresses like her. As for our box office results this time, of course, it’s also a result of her really putting in the energy to publicize our movie. But still, I won’t give her any more money.”
As his jokes were coupled with a proper introduction of the movie, he did not seem rigid at all and people found it very interesting.
This time, Nan Gongyu’s movie was probably a huge winner at the Golden Name Awards.
So many people were currently paying attention to this grand gathering on television.
Many people watched Lin Che receive the award on television.
Yu Minmin looked at her and sighed with admiration. She had her hand on her stomach as she thought to herself that this was who Lin Che was. After so many years of enduring ordeals, she finally succeeded in coming up on this stage and achieving the glory she deserved.
Mu Feiran also stayed in front of her television at home and watched this scene. She felt very relieved and very happy for Lin Che. As she looked at the brilliant and dazzling stage, she recalled that she had once stood on that stage and had received that award. She felt as if she had been cut off from the outside world for ages, and she also felt as if she had not walked out of this house for a very long time.
In actual fact, she had merely left the place she had liked going to in the past and had not returned for a long time.
When she thought about it... she felt that perhaps it was time for her to return too.
After leaving Mo Ding, she may not suffer as much as she had in the past. She could also film what she wanted to film and do what she wanted to do.
After all, she had, in reality, achieved everything in the past and did not have any big aspirations either. She merely wanted to focus on filming what she wanted to film.
In front of their televisions, people who were infinitely envious of Lin Che were aplenty.
Qin Wanwan was also one of them.
Thinking back to the award ceremony for the Golden Name Awards back then, she had a part in it. However, this time, she was not even qualified to walk the red carpet.
But on the contrary, for some reason, Lin Che was simply so lucky. She had been away for so many years, but the moment she came back, she returned to the top. It was unbelievable that she could actually go back to the public eye within a short time after returning.
Qin Wanwan did admire her. She did not know what magic Lin Che possessed to be able to attract so many fans and so much attention.
Before long, all of the programs and the broadcasting stations began broadcasting news regarding her.
On Abby’s end, she also started receiving congratulatory calls from various people.
After the Golden Name Awards, an afterparty was prepared backstage.
At the afterparty, everyone made their rounds and congratulated each other. Naturally, those who had won awards and those who had not had different mentalities.
There were award winners who were beaming with happiness and speaking fluently at great length over on the other side. As for those who had not won any awards, they could not show that they were upset either. They could only pretend to be magnanimous and listen from the side.
Every single person had his or her own views on the award winners this time. However, they had already predicted since a long time ago that the winner would be Nan Gongyu. After all, he was the apparent dark horse. His movie had instantly hit the billion mark, and it was even a 2D movie.
Just then, Yang Ling came over as well. Someone saw Yang Ling and hastily went up to congratulate her. “Congratulations. You’re the Best Supporting Actress.”
Yang Ling smiled. She fiddled with her clothes and said, “Thank you, everyone. I won only because of my good luck.”
She turned around. When she saw that there were reporters around, she smiled even more confidently.
As they watched Yang Ling go in to deal with the reporters, everyone let out a sigh over here and said, “Seriously. I wonder how much money she spent bribing her way into becoming the Best Supporting Actress.”
“She used hard cash to buy the award. What can you do? Go and spend the same money if you’re unhappy.”
“Hmph. I just find it pointless.”
Despite saying that she found it pointless, in reality, it was because she could not bear to spend the money. She would really have to spend a lot of money. The Golden Name Awards was the most significant movie award ceremony in C Nation, and it was known for its fairness. Of course, some people cared about the award for Best Supporting Actress and some did not. If there were very few good works nominated, they could grant you the award if you spent a bit more money. But an award like that for Best Female Lead was different. The Golden Name Awards themselves dared not take the matter lightly and ruin their own reputation. If the Golden Name Awards attracted fewer investors and as a result, the loss would outweigh the gains.
Thus, the more significant awards were still fairly awarded. But a little compromise for the minor awards was still inevitable.
After all, the Golden Name Awards were run by people. As long as it was run by people, a few loopholes could hardly be avoided.
Naturally, everyone also envied Yang Ling because she dared to spend the money and dared to do the deed. Furthermore, after winning the award, she would indeed be on many covers. Many reporters surrounded her and asked her questions here as well, regarding the see-through gown she was wearing and her victory. She was asked about many things, so there would definitely be a lot of news about her tomorrow.
But most of the others who had merely attended the ceremony without winning an award would be lucky to have their names mentioned or a photo of them published.
Just when they were in envy of her, they heard someone say that Lin Che was here.
The Best Female Lead walked in together with Nan Gongyu. The reporters and the cameras immediately abandoned everyone else and turned directly to this much-talked-about Best Female Lead.
Her comeback this year was undoubtedly successful.
The moment she made her comeback, she not only became the topic of discussion immediately but even shot directly to the top to become the best actress at the moment. Coupled with her popularity from the reality show, she had turned from a famous celebrity to an indubitably A-list celebrity. In the past, people might have called her a renowned celebrity. Everyone still felt that she was merely the subject of much discussion but had no true representative works. But now, things were completely different.
Lin Che had already changed into a simple gown. While she no longer looked as majestic as she had before, she still looked elegant and proper. The smile on her face appeared extremely fitting. They wondered if it was because she had won the award earlier, which gave her a very imposing aura the moment she came in. She did not need to say a word to attract everyone’s attention. She seemed to overpower everyone present at the venue. They genuinely felt an intense atmosphere rush directly at them, causing them to simultaneously envy her and sigh in admiration.
She had really changed.
Dressed in a long gown cinched in at the waist, Lin Che’s aura was splendid. When she walked in, everyone instantly gathered around her to congratulate Lin Che and Nan Gongyu.
People were watching from behind who felt even more envious.
“Look at her. She became the queen with one movie.”
“Wasn’t she supposed to act in a television series before this? Later on, the director took the road to ruin. He chased her out of the production and terminated her contract.”
“Ah, which production had such bad judgment?”
“They’ve halted production now.”
“Pft, pft. Aren’t they dying from regret right now? After seeing Lin Che leave the production and become the queen immediately after filming a movie.”
“It’s pointless for them to regret it anyway. They were the ones who put themselves in trouble.”
It was tough for Lin Che and Nan Gongyu to break free from everyone’s congratulatory words. However, she was destined to be the main character for the night. Everyone’s gazes would be trailing after her wherever she went.
In reality, she had not fully recovered from the emotions she felt when she had won the award. She kept feeling as if she was still in the clouds.
Even though she had been nominated for a long time and she had also thought about possibly winning the award, it felt different from actually winning the award.
