Yin Chengjue’s past life was a complete joke.
The star he personally groomed not only betrayed him but twisted the knife when his company was on the brink of collapse.
Reborn, he vowed ...
The news shocked everyone. The A-list male celebrity had been in the industry for a long time and had always missed out on the Best Actor award. This time, with such a high ranking, his fans were convinced that he would definitely win the Best Actor award for Film of the Year. Even the fans of the third-ranked male celebrity thought that their idol was just going through the motions with a nomination and would be satisfied. But at this crucial moment, it was discovered that the A-list male celebrity had rigged his votes.
After subtracting the votes from those that were fabricated, this A-list male star's vote count didn't even rank him in the top ten.
Not only that top male celebrity, but even Yu He, who ranked fourth and missed the top three, was found to have rigged the voting data! After deducting the rigged votes, their idol was also outside the top ten, so even if someone in the top three was eliminated, they wouldn't be the ones to take their place.
Fans were completely baffled as to why their vote count was abnormal, so they firmly denied the result and suspected that it was deliberately manipulated by the official team to give Rong Yu a legitimate place in the rankings.
Even more dissatisfied were the fans of the artist who was originally ranked first, whose idol was a sure-fire winner!
The official Huicui team initially wanted to save face for everyone, but seeing their persistence, they abandoned that idea and directly tagged the agents or studios of the artists whose voting data was abnormal, with the following message: "You know what you've done. Not only did you rig votes for your own artists, but you also incited their fans to cause trouble here. Do you think Huicui is your backyard that you can trample on as you please? Huicui isn't afraid of being exposed, but what about you?"
At the same time, the official team quickly re-ranked the votes, bringing in the third-place candidate with normal data into the shortlist, and also rearranging the previous top ten.
Fans of some artists who didn't even make it into the top ten were understandably angry when they saw that their idols were actually in the top ten, but were pushed down by those who rigged the votes. They condemned the vote-rigging behavior.
The official Huicui team is outspoken and doesn't tolerate some artists' teams that have clearly manipulated votes for their artists internally, yet encourage fans to report other groups for vote manipulation. Since you've reported it, we're willing to investigate together. If you vote honestly, that's fine, but if your own groups are involved in vote manipulation, then don't blame Huicui for making it public, since you're the ones who forced the official team to investigate.
The big fans of the artist who was originally ranked first in the votes quickly learned from the artist's agent that the company had indeed been rigging the votes for their idol, and had even made arrangements with some film critics within the Huicui platform. After all, this male artist had been a runner-up for so many years, and although this year's film box office was far inferior to "The Mystery," given his achievements over the years, no one would object to awarding him the prize.
But who knew that Yu He's fans would be so unreasonable? Because Yu He was ranked fourth and almost made it into the finals, they started to cause trouble for the top three, forcing Huicui to check the voting data and publicly release the voting data curve.
If others insist on investigating, and Huicui doesn't investigate, it would be ruining its own reputation. Huicui has been operating for so many years, how could it ruin its reputation because of a fixed quota?
And so the person who was originally considered the pre-selected first place winner was eliminated.
Ironically, after Yu He's fans messed up others' rankings, it turned out that their own rankings were also due to vote manipulation by the company. Originally, they were in fourth place, and others would have sympathized with their idol and felt sorry for Yu He. But now that the results have been announced, their votes didn't even make the top ten, and they even pushed the original top ten down, which has instead attracted dissatisfaction from the fans of other artists in the top ten.
It's all because of Yu He that their idol's ranking dropped! This kind of person is shameless! They got their votes by rigging the results, and instead of being careful to hide it, they reported others for rigging votes. How shameless do they have?
In an instant, Yu He and her fans became the target of ridicule. Yu He had been harmed by her troublesome fans more than once or twice, and this time was the most humiliating. Let's not talk about how frustrated she was.
The awards ceremony was held as scheduled. Since Rong Yu was nominated for his role in "The Mystery of Shadows", he walked the red carpet with several other important supporting actors from "The Mystery of Shadows".
While celebrities need to walk the red carpet for photos, Eun Seung-jue didn't have to. He simply entered through the VIP entrance and sat down as arranged.
After Rong Yu finished her photoshoot on the red carpet, she came in to find Yin Chengjue, and the two sat together again.
Other celebrities, film critics, media, and others also entered the venue one after another. The cameras kept panning around the seats, and those caught on camera would appear on the big screen.
The host invited by the organizers of this year's awards is also an artist with considerable fame in the industry. He has won several awards, including Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor. This time, he became both the host and the award presenter.
When he went on stage, he joked with the female host who was co-hosting with him, saying, "I heard that the organizers of the event invited me because they couldn't get Dong Ge to host it."
The female host asked in surprise, "Is that so?"
The male host, surnamed Lin, shrugged: "Just ask Brother Dong, and you'll know." After saying that, he gestured for the camera to focus on Donghuang Qingyan, who was sitting in his seat.
Donghuang Qingyan's face quickly appeared on the big screen. He waved to the camera, and the female host covered her face in response, exclaiming, "Wow! He's so handsome!"
The two exchanged questions and answers, turning the camera to the faces of various celebrities as they joked and chatted until the awards ceremony began, at which point they finally got down to business.
The awards started with the TV series, and "Da Yuan Dynasty" unsurprisingly received a nomination and was shortlisted for Best TV Series of the Year. However, because it was an adaptation and not an original series, it ultimately missed out on the award. Nevertheless, the Best Actor in a TV Series award was won by Gao Zichuan, one of the two male leads in "Da Yuan Dynasty".
Rong Yu was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his supporting roles as the Imperial Advisor in "The Great Yuan Dynasty" and the villainous leader of a demonic sect in "The Swordsman's Wanderer," but when the host announced the final winner, it wasn't him.
Seeing the barely suppressed disappointment in Rong Yu's eyes, Yin Chengjue patted his hand.
Rong Yu grasped Yin Chengjue's hand in return, maintaining a good attitude: "I'm already very happy to be nominated."
Host: "...Now we'll announce the Best Actor in a Film of the Year... Please look at the big screen!"
When this was finally mentioned, Yin Chengjue perked up and gestured for Rong Yu to look over.
When the third film was playing, "Shadow of the Lost" finally appeared!
Host: "That's right, our three nominees this year are the male leads of these three films! So, who will ultimately win the Best Actor award?"
Host: "I won't keep you in suspense any longer. You can edit it out yourself to make it longer later. Perhaps, in your style, you can even insert another forty minutes of commercials."
Scene: "Hahahaha..."
Host: "Without further ado, let's now welcome our winner of Best Film Actor of the Year – Rong Yu!"
After he finished speaking, the lights immediately searched through the crowd and finally landed on Rong Yu's face!
Rong Yu's face was projected directly onto the large screen at the scene.
Today, Rong Yu was wearing a burgundy tuxedo with many sequins on both shoulders. Her bow tie was dark blue and also had gold sequins on it, making it sparkle under the lights.
Because he had been nominated once before but failed, Rong Yu didn't have high hopes when he was nominated again. But to his surprise, the host actually called out his name!
After a moment of stunned silence, Rong Yu reacted, stood up calmly, and hugged the person next to her.
The camera then panned to the person next to him, and it was discovered that the person was wearing a dark blue tuxedo and a burgundy tie. Judging from the style of the clothes, it was the same as Rong Yu's!
The two are already in a public relationship, so there's nothing wrong with them sitting together. The host couldn't help but sigh, "Mr. Yin, you two don't need to hug each other so tightly. Why don't you come up here with us?"
The phrase "hard to part" successfully amused the entire audience.
Rong Yu, feeling a little embarrassed, released her grip on Yin Chengjue's hand and was about to go on stage when the host continued, "I'm not joking, I'm serious. Mr. Yin, you can come up here too, and we can present the award for Best Original Film and Television Work of the Year at the same time, right? Mr. Y, the author of 'Ghostly Trace' and 'Mystery Shadow'?"
Others: ? ! !
Mr. Y is the author of "Ghostly Trace" and "Mystery Shadow," but he has always remained anonymous. No one knows who he is or his real name. This time, "Mystery Shadow" was nominated for Best Original Film of the Year, and everyone thought that Director Mo would accept the award on behalf of the author. Even Yin Chengjue himself thought so. However, the host unexpectedly called out Yin Chengjue's name directly.
Yin Chengjue, the first letter of his surname is Y, isn't it?
However, based on just one initial, we can't confirm anything. Is Yin Chengjue really the author of the plays "Ghostly Trace" and "Mystery Shadow"? Could he be an imposter?
This was the shared sentiment of everyone present when they first heard the news!
However, it's hard to say about other sites, but this is an official site of Huicui. Huicui's credibility is there for all to see. If they hadn't verified it, how could they make such a claim?
Besides, Yin Chengjue is already the CEO of the company. Does he need the fame of an author? He has already earned enough from the box office of these works. Why would he need to compete with an author for fame?
Therefore, it is very likely that these two works were indeed written by Yin Chengjue?
