Five minutes later, He Jiu and Ya Ya returned to the stage. "The excitement is about to begin. Hello everyone, distinguished guests, viewers at home, and netizens in the live broadcast room. The excitement will only get better after the commercial break. Now it's time to reveal the answer. So, who will win the Best Screenplay award tonight?"

Ya Ya, holding the microphone, took over He Jiu's words, "He comes from a prestigious music school, has excellent grades, is a promising young man, and will become famous overnight!"

"He was proficient in all eighteen martial arts, and was knowledgeable in chess, music, calligraphy, painting, and poetry. He was hailed as a god of his generation!"

At this point, anyone who knew Fang Yang even slightly could almost guess what was going on. More than half the eyes in the hall were on Fang Yang's seat. Judging from the introduction, all that was missing was to read out Fang Yang's ID number.

Zhou Xin and the other three people next to him all looked at Fang Yang with congratulatory eyes. "Fang Yang, it looks like it's definitely you. Hurry up and get ready to go on stage."

Fang Yang calmly replied to Zhou Xin, "Anything is possible before the name is announced."

Zhou Xin stomped her foot. "You still say it wasn't you? You're practically ready to read out your ID card."

On stage, Ya Ya continued, "He turned the tide and saved the city from collapse, single-handedly supporting an entire city. His prowess in countless battles is renowned throughout the internet."

"He has received numerous comments from state media outlets, and is known for his positive and inspiring attitude, his development in multiple fields, and his undefeated record to date."

"Who exactly is he? Who is this exceptionally talented person? Who is he?"

At this moment, a black human-shaped half-body image appeared on the big screen, with a large question mark in the middle.

He Jiu took a sip of a beverage and said, "Spark Beverage is really delicious. It's refreshing, palatable, and can also add the trace elements needed by the body. It's the perfect choice for daily life."

The audience in the live stream fainted again. This Teacher He is really going all out for his sponsor. I wonder how much bonus the sponsor will give Teacher He after he wakes up.

"After all that, I'm sure everyone has a good idea. Now, I'd like to officially announce the winner of Best Screenplay: ... Please look at the big screen!"

At the crucial moment, He Jiu kept everyone in suspense, but not intentionally; she simply changed what should have been read aloud to be announced on the screen.

The originally black humanoid bust has gradually become clearer, showing a person playing the piano and singing, and the song is "The Lone Warrior" that Fang Yang just sang.

The audience suddenly realized that all they wanted to do was re-release the video; the organizers were really going all out for views.

Suddenly, the live stream chat exploded with comments: "That's it! I came here because of this video, and I didn't expect that Yang Shen would actually sing here."

"You bastard, this is your second song this year, isn't it? You're such a coward, you've already forgotten about us fans. What's with all this movie-making? Don't you think we fans support you? We haven't seen you for a whole year!"

"Exactly! We downloaded over 100 million copies of that album last year, and this bastard is still not satisfied. He's just sitting here doing nothing all day, not doing anything productive. When are we going to release a second album? I've been listening to the same songs on my playlist for a year now, I'm about to throw up!"

"That bastard really did something inhuman. I really want to send him a razor blade and see what his expression is when he receives it!"

······

The live stream was filled with curses, but strangely, traffic kept pouring in. This surprised and delighted the organizers who had been watching the live stream closely. As the saying goes, love to the extreme is hate. Although these people all wished they could tear Fang Yang to pieces, they said one thing but did another. They said no, but they came faster than a supercar!

Looking at the increasing traffic and soaring ratings, Tan Yang was overjoyed. He really is a walking traffic magnet! He can generate the traffic of half the guests at an awards ceremony all by himself. No wonder Fang Yang's song during this year's National Day holiday helped Xihu City complete its annual tourism target two months ahead of schedule. In the future, he will probably be warmly welcomed by local governments wherever he goes!

Amid applause from the audience, Fang Yang slowly stood up and walked towards the stage. Along the way, people kept greeting him, whether they knew him or not. Fang Yang smiled and responded to each one. You can't hit a smiling face, and regardless of whether these people were sincere or not, at least they did a very good job of maintaining appearances.

He Jiu, who was waiting on stage, gave Fang Yang a hug after he came on stage, which made Ya Ya extremely dissatisfied. "Teacher He, you can't steal my thunder!"

"Ya Ya, how did I steal your thunder?"

"Well, you're both men, a handshake is fine. This hug was supposed to be for me, but you beat me to it. If I hug you now, won't I just be imitating you?"

He Jiu laughed and said, "How could our beautiful and lovely Yaya be Dong Shi? Even Xi Shi would pale in comparison if she stood next to you, President Fang, don't you think?"

Fang Yang nodded. "I feel that this earth can no longer contain Ya Ya's beauty. All the beauty in the world is not as good as your cute appearance. Ya Ya, you really are so poor that all you have left is your beauty."

Ya Ya blushed and felt hot from Fang Yang's praise. She couldn't help but cover her face and exclaimed happily, "Really? Really? I'm so happy! No wonder Mr. Fang can write such beautiful songs. His mouth is so sweet, like it's been coated with honey."

Seeing that the commotion had subsided, He Jiu quickly stopped Fang Yang and said, "President Fang, I see that you have a special fondness for martial arts novels. You've already written three martial arts novels. Will your next TV series also be based on a martial arts novel?"

Fang Yang knew that He Jiu was advertising his new TV series, so he replied, "No, what we're filming now is a period drama set in the palace. Anyone who has read my novels knows that it's called 'Princess Pearl'."

Ya Ya chimed in, "Actually, I don't really like martial arts novels, but I really enjoy watching 'Princess Pearl.' Mr. Fang, how did you come up with this theme in the first place?"

Seeing He Jiu and Ya Ya's eager expressions, Fang Yang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Oh, actually, there's a place called Princess Tomb in the capital. When I was in school, I once passed by that place by bus, and there was a bus stop like this. I was very curious at the time, wondering why a princess's tomb would be buried here. Later, I specifically looked into it and found out that Emperor Qianlong adopted a woman from the common people as his goddaughter and bestowed upon her the title of princess. However, because she wasn't his biological daughter, she couldn't be buried in the imperial mausoleum after her death, so that's how Princess Tomb came to be."

He Jiu looked at Fang Yang with admiration and said, "So you wrote this novel called 'Princess Pearl'? It's true that art comes from life. President Fang's control over the subject matter in life is so effortless. I also heard that the song 'The First Snow of 2002' was written by President Fang after seeing the snow at his mentor's house, based on the local bus stop sign. Now that place has become a popular tourist destination, and many people want to experience the snow scene in Urumqi on a snowy day."

"Really? I also really like Urumqi."
