Chapter 672 - There Must Be Something Shady

“Bold and lawless, and she gave me NG more than a dozen times on the first day of filming. After getting scolded, she immediately left the crew and disappeared all day.”

Director Mong pointed the trophy in Jiang Yuning’s direction as he spoke.

It seemed like he was breaking the news, retaliating, and venting his dissatisfaction.

This made the guests in the audience feel very nervous.

Director Mong, what kind of hatred did he have that he wanted to expose Jiang Yuning’s shortcomings on such an occasion?

“But…without her, there would be no <Nameless Orphan> now. Because there is no other actress, from the start to the very end, who would depend on her boldness and lawlessness. On the first day of filming, she was not in the state that I wanted her to be in and she was scolded so badly. She immediately left the crew to experience the life of the people. After returning, she handed in a satisfactory answer sheet. As long as there is a scene that Jiang Yuning is filming, she has never been late or left early. As long as I say what time we are going to film, whether it’s windy or rainy, or whether we are going to be staying up all night, she will always be there waiting. I can always count on her.”

“To be honest, I used to have great opinions on the younger generation, but since I met Jiang Yuning, I feel that I have lived for nothing in the previous decades…”

“Now, thinking about it, I want to give these four words to Jiang Yuning, that is sincere heart, brave and courageous…”

Obviously, it was Director Mong who won the award, but he gave all the compliments to Jiang Yuning.

This was simply because he knew that girl didn’t have any hope of winning tonight. So, he had to praise her well. In this way, he could be regarded as the director and awarded the award to his actress.

No matter who won the Best Actress Award tonight, in his heart, only that girl deserves it.

Sitting in the audience, Jiang Yuning was calm from beginning to end. Of course, she was also very touched when she heard Director Mong’s words. This was because she knew that all her efforts were not in vain. However, <Nameless Orphan> can have the award. The achievements of this year were everyone’s credit. First of all, they had to thank fil emperor Xiao for his 60 million investment.

Under the stage, many artistes admired Jiang Yuning.

What the subject matter of <Nameless Orphan> is, everyone knows that it was really only one family that could play and make publicity so successful.

Real actors could understand the difficulty, so they could empathize with Director Mong’s mood.

At this time, Shen Zhongwei was sitting in her seat and she rolled her eyes, feeling that what Director Mong said was too artificial.

“What about working harder? It’s not enough to get an award! Is it, aunt?”

Shen Tao glanced at her and didn’t say a word, but the person next to Shen Zhongwei laughed in the dark after listening.

…

Major awards were awarded very quickly, and <Nameless Orphan> did not disappoint the expectations and won the best director, best screenwriter, best soundtrack, and best screenplay. The male and female protagonists were also shortlisted for film emperor and film empress together. It was really not easy for a drama to get such results, and they were still an unpopular theme.

Unknowingly, the guests were all in their seats and had been sitting for two hours.

They had finally reached the climax of this Golden Magnolia Awards Ceremony, and the winners of this year’s film emperor and film empress would be announced.

Everyone watched this tense moment, especially the nephew Shen Zhongwei. It was said that the higher the expectations, the tighter the mood.

Looking back at Jiang Yuning and Xiao Chennan, they were very calm.

Xiao Chennan had taken the film emperor award before, and now he was still an actor. Therefore, he had long underestimated the gains and losses, and Jiang Yuning was entirely calm because she knew she would not get the award.

“The actor who won the 28th Golden Magnolia Best Actor Award is…” On the stage, the award-presenting guest opened the envelope in his hand and revealed the mysterious answer. “The <Nameless Orphan>, Xiao Chennan! Congratulations to Xiao Chennan…”

Then, the spotlight hit Xiao Chennan’s body. At this time, he also got up from his seat decently and shook hands with Jiang Yuning.

“Congratulations.”

“Come on!” Xiao Chennan retracted his right hand, buckled the button, and walked up to the podium under everyone’s eyes.

“Next, the highlight of the day. The actress who won the 28th Golden Magnolia Award for Best Actress…”

The spotlight was spinning back and forth on the four candidates, and the screen behind the award presenter was also the film and television stills of the four candidates.

Finally, the flashing golden frame stopped on a person, and the actress’s stills was also magnified on the screen.

“Congratulations to the actress of <Nameless Orphan> Li Zhimong, Jiang Yuning!”

As the award-presenter announced the answer, the spotlight stopped directly on Jiang Yuning. In the next second, everyone could see Jiang Yuning’s current state on the big screen. She was completely stunned.

“Congratulations to Yuning!”

Jiang Yuning: “???”

“What are you still waiting for?” Director Mong gave her a quick push, “You won the award!”

Jiang Yuning saw herself on the screen at this time and only then did she realize that she seemed to have won the prize?

“Yuning, come on stage soon…”

Hearing the host’s call, Jiang Yuning got up from his seat, but her brain was completely blank.

When she took the stage, her breathing was still very chaotic. She had obviously been very shocked and blown up by the news.

“Congratulations to our film emperor and film empress tonight. Now, we would like to invite our two outstanding actor and actress to speak.” The host handed the microphone over to Jiang Yuning, but Xiao Chennan took it smoothly.

“Let me go first, give her a little time to calm down!”

The guests under the stage laughed.

“I…I am very happy tonight, but not because I am happy to win the award for myself. I am happy because I am happy for Yuning, who is also the starring in the lead female role in this drama. Compared to her, my dedication and contributions are really worlds apart. Through her acting, I can see that she spent all of her effort on the role of Li Zhimong. In my eyes, her condition is already very good, but she seems very unconfident.”

“Jiang Yuning, you should know that you are excellent.”

Under the stage, the guests applauded. At this time, only Shen Zhongwei and Shen Tao’s faces were flushed red, as if they had been beaten alive.

They had been criticizing the other party, and accepting everyone else’s flattery and compliments. However, in the end, another person won the prize. Wasn’t it embarrassing? Wouldn’t she be ashamed?

At this moment, Shen Tao could not wait to find a hole to hide in.

It would be fine to lose to someone else, but she actually lost to a newcomer!

For so many years, she has been in the entertainment industry for more than twenty years, and she had been nominated for the best actress of Golden Magnolia for the fourth time. However, it was always taken away from her every time.

Did she really not have the fortune to win an award?

“Aunt…there must be something shady!”

Shen Tao pushed Shen Zhongwei’s hand away. She did not want to talk to Shen Zhongwei at all.

This was because she did not have such high expectations, but her niece has been touting her, saying that she would definitely win the prize. She even said that she was the best amongst the few candidates. What was the end result?
