Chapter 111 Red Carpet Queen

The area behind Wei Lai is Mengqin Prefecture.

Meng Qinzhou was wearing a stylish black suit, with a few strands of his hair dyed ocean blue. He was currently filming a TV series, and the role required him to bleach and dye his hair.

The female fans screamed wildly, and the viewers in the live stream were just as excited, almost drooling as they watched the screen.

Qinzhou is getting more and more handsome!

I wish I could have such a well-behaved child.

It would be so great if Xiao Meng and Sister Jiang could make a movie together.

The ladies upstairs really dare to dream!

Teacher Yang interviewed Meng Qinzhou, "Xiao Meng, you went to Huai County to see Sister Jiang some time ago. Some netizens photographed someone with you. Is that person your bodyguard?"

[Hahaha, I reasonably suspect that Teacher Yang spent the whole night online looking for memes.]

I was wondering if Teacher Yang would ask about Xiao Meng's hair color, but who knew she would ask some completely unrelated questions.

[Teacher Yang has toned it down; at least she didn't directly ask the man next to you why he shook hands with Sister Jiang.]

Meng Qinzhou looked surprised, which also proved that the host had not rehearsed the interview script with the guests beforehand.

"To clarify, he is my uncle. We went to Huai County to visit relatives and friends together."

[Haha, the key point is the phrase "visiting relatives and friends"]

[Meng Qinzhou: Netizens are really too gossipy]

After seeing Meng Qinzhou off, Teacher Yang welcomed Ji Wenxuan.

Ji Wenxuan, sporting a slicked-back hairstyle and frameless glasses, strode confidently onto the red carpet, exuding an air of domineering CEO.

Most of the fans at the scene were fans of his drama, and they all chanted his character's name from the drama.

"President He!"

"President He!"

Teacher Yang interviewed Ji Wenxuan with a smile, "Little Ji, should I start calling you President He now?"

Facing the live broadcast camera, Ji Wenxuan raised his hand and pushed up his glasses, "I hope the screenwriter will change my surname next time. I'm tired of playing President He, so let's have President Ji instead."

Everyone burst into laughter.

[The domineering CEO's public image collapses in private, just like always]

[Please, Mr. He, don't speak. If you do, your domineering CEO image will shatter.]

Viewers in the live stream were all guessing whether Sister Jiang or the movie star would be the final performer.

[The Best Actor is a big name, so he'll be the grand finale]

Have you all forgotten what Kobayashi said? The order of appearance will be determined by drawing lots.

I hope Sister Jiang will appear last.

When the black limousine pulled up at the entrance to the red carpet, the back door opened, and a leather shoe stepped out of the car, the fans at the scene screamed instantly.

"Best Actor!"

"Best Actor!"

"Best Actor!"

Don Juan, who has not appeared in front of the camera for nearly half a year, walked the red carpet with ease and fearlessness, wearing a custom-made suit and the watch he endorses.

The cheers from the fans at the scene even penetrated the glass curtain wall and spread to all the surrounding office buildings.

[As expected of a movie star, his makeup is simple, yet he exudes charisma, showcasing the charm of a mature man in every gesture.]

[The actor is so handsome, I'm smitten! JPG]

Ahhhh, I really want to be there!

[Those long legs of the movie star are so enviable!]

The front row of cameras was flashing incessantly.

"Teacher Tang, please wait a moment. Please look to your right. Thank you."

Don Juan waved to the crowd of fans and changed positions and angles to accommodate the photographers' requests.

Five minutes later, Don Juan finally walked up to the host, took the pen handed to him by the hostess, and left his handsome signature on the large billboard.

Teacher Yang and Don Juan had known each other for a long time, and the two shook hands and exchanged a few pleasantries.

Teacher Yang smiled and said, "I believe the fans here and the viewers in the live stream have been looking forward to the interview for a long time, so I won't waste any more words and will just ask directly: Teacher Tang, did you go on a dating trip during the past six months?"

[Hahaha, no wonder he's the top male host on Pomegranate TV, he dares to ask so many questions]

Even the best actors wouldn't admit to being in a relationship.

[The award-winning actor should quickly admit that he has no relationship with Haiwei]

【Oh right, I haven't heard from Haiwei lately】

It seems Haiwei went abroad for further studies.

Don Juan's smile remained unchanged as he calmly replied, "I've been busy with my career for the past six months. I spent New Year's Day filming a movie in the South Island, and then returned to Beijing to prepare for the new company. My focus will gradually shift behind the scenes as I stay in Beijing to spend more time with my family."

Teacher Yang immediately chimed in, "Thank you for your answer, Teacher Tang. May I ask one more question? Could you give me a spoiler about when the movie will be released?"

Don Juan: "It is expected to be as early as the end of this year."

I am quite satisfied with the Best Actor's answer.

Spending more time with family is key.

Congratulations to the Best Actor on his move behind the scenes; he'll have more time for romance now.

The career-oriented fans in the live stream started controlling the comments to prevent the CP fans from interfering. The Jiangtang CP fans weren't stupid either; they wouldn't want to make a fool of themselves during the actor's personal interview.

The moment everyone had been waiting for finally arrived, and Jiang Mingyue made a grand entrance as the last person on the red carpet.

There were probably tens of thousands of fans at the event today, crowding the area inside and out and taking over the lawn in front of the TV station.

Jiang Mingyue's fans held up support signs and printed out clips of all of her looks from the Mao Zong and Nan Dao concerts.

"Sister Jiang!"

"Sister Jiang!"

"Sister Jiang!"

The viewers in the live stream were also rapidly refreshing the screen with the words "Sister Jiang" everywhere, and the number of online viewers had even exceeded 30 million.

The other nine guests waited inside, snacking and chatting while keeping an eye on the live stream screen, waiting for Jiang Mingyue to appear.

Qi Sheng's group and Tang Huang hadn't actually had a chance to meet Jiang Mingyue yet. Tang Huang came directly from the airport, while Qi Sheng's group arrived at Shiliu TV Station at 1 p.m. for makeup and styling.

Qi Sheng stood next to Wei Lai, eating a small cake in his hand. "Brother Wei, you said Mingyue prepared two dresses. Which one will she wear on the red carpet?"

Wei Lai was also eating; he shared a piece of buttered bread with Ji Wenxuan.

"I don't know either. When the three of us were getting our hair and makeup done, Captain Meng had something to discuss with Mingyue. The two of them went to the study to talk. The executive director told us to come to the set first."

When the show "Brothers Who Go Forward" was being filmed, a chef murder case occurred at the Lingcheng Resort Hotel. Captain Meng came to the scene and Wei Lai was deeply impressed by him.

It wasn't until the afternoon that he learned Captain Meng was Meng Qinzhou's uncle and Ms. Qin Xue's grandson.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the last limousine finally came to a slow stop at the entrance to the red carpet.

A hostess waiting nearby helped open the back door of the car, and the live broadcast camera zoomed in, revealing the golden skirt to everyone.

Beneath the draping satin fabric were layers of tulle skirts. The camera moved upwards, and a beautiful young woman bent down to get out of the car. Her phoenix eyes habitually tilted upwards slightly before she revealed a smile.

Jiang Mingyue wore a Chinese brocade spring-style long dress, a modified cheongsam design, with her long hair tied into a bun, a jade hairpin inserted diagonally in the middle of the bun, and no other decorations.

The makeup artist's skills were superb, perfectly highlighting her facial features. Her eyebrows were delicate and arched, her lips were red and her teeth were white. When her phoenix eyes swept towards the camera, they were less sharp than usual and more gentle.

Although I knew Jiang Mingyue was beautiful before, compared to her personality and the things she did, her appearance was insignificant.

At this moment, under the high-definition live broadcast, Jiang Mingyue's makeup was flawless, looking as beautiful as if she were born that way, instantly stunning everyone in the live broadcast room.

【Ahhhhh】

[You only realize how little you know when you need to use it; you can only say "ahhhhh" without knowing how to praise.]

[Sister Jiang's Beauty Overload]

My heart is pounding.

My mom asked me why I was laughing so lewdly, so I asked her to watch the live stream with me. She laughed along and kept praising Sister Jiang for being beautiful.

How come I never noticed how beautiful Sister Jiang is before! I must have been blind.

Family members, Sister Jiang's charm has never been about her appearance.

[Hehe, I really want to see the reactions of the nine guests inside the room.]

The nine members of Wei Lai's group inside the venue reacted just like the fans, praising Jiang Mingyue for her beauty, the elegant and representative dress she chose, and for promoting Chinese intangible cultural heritage.

The fans at the scene waved their support signs and screamed excitedly.

"Sister Jiang! We love you!"

"Sister Jiang! You're so beautiful!"

The photographers frantically pressed the shutter, racing against time to capture Jiang Mingyue's moments.

Before walking the red carpet, Jiang Mingyue was informed that she was asked to extend her time on the red carpet as much as possible, preferably by ten minutes.

As a result, Jiang Mingyue, unusually, cooperated with the photographers, turning a one-minute walk on the red carpet into a ten-minute walk.

Shiliu TV really gave Sister Jiang a lot of face.

Sister Jiang is their lucky star, and of course, the other nine guests are also great.

Sister, you're so considerate!

Teacher Yang wasn't in a hurry and waited patiently at the end.

When Jiang Mingyue finally walked over and turned to sign the large signboard, it suddenly drew a burst of high-pitched screams.

It turns out that her dress design was very innovative; the back featured a crane design, and the crane was not made of ordinary yarn, but of tiny diamonds.

Wow! I finally believe the previous report that I saw Sister Jiang trying on a dress at Hang Lung Plaza. The dress she was wearing is definitely worth more than a million.

[Jiang Mingyue has retired from the entertainment industry, so how does she earn her income? I'm not doubting it, but can she afford this dress? I'm not a hater, I'm just a neutral observer.]

Sister, you can doubt anything, but you can't doubt that Sister Jiang can't afford a dress. Go check how much a piece by double-sided embroidery master Shao Quan is worth. Sister Jiang is her apprentice, and she will only surpass her master in the future. There were even wealthy businessmen who wanted to bid for her piece on the "Walking into Intangible Cultural Heritage" program, offering millions for it.

Compared to Jiang Jie's expensive dress, netizens are more eager to hear the interview questions from host Yang.

After signing her name, Jiang Mingyue turned and walked towards Teacher Yang, giving a slight bow, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Teacher Yang quickly said it was no problem, "Mingyue, please allow me to call you Sister Jiang, just like the netizens do."

Jiang Mingyue smiled slightly, "As long as Teacher Yang is happy."

Teacher Yang continued, "Haha, I believe most netizens already know about Sister Jiang, but I still want to ask on behalf of the netizens: Does Sister Jiang have any hidden tricks up her sleeve that she's keeping from us?"

Hahahaha

Sister Jiang: Don't ask, the answer is no.

How could there not be? There must be!

The fans at the scene and everyone in the live broadcast room witnessed what happened next.

Jiang Mingyue raised an eyebrow and smiled, "I don't have any special skills, I'm just proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting."

【Ha ha ha ha】

Proficient in all arts: music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

[Quick, quick, smart internet sisters, is Sister Jiang bragging or joking?]

[This is definitely not a joke, Sister Jiang is telling the truth. Sister Jiang has beautiful handwriting and is also good at mural painting. She is skilled in both calligraphy and painting. Besides, Go is still a game. As for musical instruments, she can probably play the harmonica a few times.]

[It's tough on you, sister. Fans won't take it so seriously, so there's no need to make such a hard explanation.]

Teacher Yang took charge of the event, saying, "Thank you for your answer, Sister Jiang. Now, please welcome Sister Jiang into the inner room. Dear viewers, we need to take a short break. See you in the live broadcast at 7 o'clock."

The live stream was paused, and the viewers in the chat room were all groaning in despair. They didn't mind leaving the camera unloaded at all!

Some netizens have already rushed to Da Yan's Weibo, and sure enough, the live broadcast of the celebration banquet red carpet became a trending topic, dominating the top 20 trending topics.

[Imitation of a variety show contestant draws and walks the red carpet]

The host and guests did not rehearse their scripts beforehand.

Wang Xia leaves her critics with nowhere to run.

[Chi Wenxuan is tired of playing President He]

Don Juan shifts his focus behind the scenes.

[Guests at the celebration banquet for the variety show "Mao Zong" walked the red carpet individually]

Teacher Yang memorized jokes overnight.

[Jiang Mingyue as the finale]

…………

Among them, the 【Jiang Mingyue Brocade Dress】 even soared to the top of the trending searches.

Netizens are praising Jiang Mingyue's brocade dress as beautiful.

"This dress suits Sister Jiang very well; it's elegant and dignified, and Sister Jiang has great taste."

"Actually, some of our emerging designers in China are quite talented, and the dresses they design are in line with the dressing style of Chinese women."

"I agree with the comment above. It's not that foreign big brand dresses are bad, but some are too revealing. Female celebrities are afraid of wardrobe malfunctions when they wear them, so they deliberately cover up with their hands, which seems a bit awkward. I'm not trying to start a fight, I'm just discussing dresses."

“I remember this brocade dress is from a high-end brand called X in Hang Lung Plaza.”

"That's right, it's the one in Hang Lung Plaza. The day Sister Jiang tried on her dress, a domineering CEO booked the whole place for an hour and a half."

Wow, who's spending so much?

"I think I have a guess about who it is, hehe, but I won't say. I'm afraid the Jiangtang CP fans will cry if I do."

"Sisters, please remember this: Sister Jiang is not love-struck. If she accepts someone buying her this dress, please believe me, what she gives back will be worth even more than the dress itself."

This comment received the most likes and became the top-rated comment.

Inside the Shiliu TV station.

Jiang Mingyue finally met Qi Sheng's group of guests, warmly went up to hug them, and took a group photo with each of them.

Jiang Mingyue turned around and saw Tang Huang walking from the corner. She smiled and waved to him, "Brother Tang!"

"Mingyue." The temperature inside was high, so Don Juan took off his suit jacket. "Long time no see."

After a brief chat, the director sent someone to inform them that they would first have a simple meal, and then hold an indoor group variety show activity at Studio 3 at 7 o'clock.

The first hour is an interview session, and the second hour includes performances and games.

The production team prepared a sumptuous dinner for the ten guests, but they were not allowed to eat too much so as not to affect the recording of the show.

Most people only ate until they were about half full, opting instead for more convenient options like seafood fried rice and mixed vegetarian noodles.

After dinner, everyone went to touch up their makeup.

Jiang Mingyue also prepared a second dress, and the makeup artist and staff from the variety show accompanied her to change her look again.

The interview session is from 7 to 8 pm, which basically involves just sitting there and chatting.

At 6:50, ten guests gathered in Studio 3. Teacher Yang and the chief director Xu Daolai sat in the middle, with the group of film emperors and Uncle Long on the left and right sides respectively.

Don Juan sat in the first seat, with Jiang Mingyue sitting next to him, followed by Wei Lai, Ji Wenxuan, and Meng Qinzhou.

In another group, Qiu Zhenlong was in first place, Xie Fei was second, Qi Sheng was in the middle, and Wang Xia and Lin Chaosheng were at the back.

At 7 p.m., the live broadcast of the celebration banquet began on time.

At the start, the number of viewers in the live stream instantly exceeded ten million. When netizens saw that Jiang Mingyue had changed into a second dress and was sitting with the movie star, they were overjoyed and their faces were frozen with smiles.

[Ahhhhh, Sister Jiang's ocean blue dress is so beautiful! She looks like a fairy!]

[Ahhhhh, Sister Jiang and the Best Actor are such a perfect match! I finally understand the joy of being a Jiang-Tang CP fan!]

[Sorry, Brother Wei, although you are very handsome, the Best Actor and Sister Jiang are a better match.]

[Ginger and Candy CP Fans, Rise Up!]

[The sapphire bracelet on Sister Jiang's wrist is so beautiful, is it an accessory?]

[It's unlikely to be decorative; it's most likely jewelry sponsored by a brand.]

But tonight's celebration banquet doesn't need brand sponsorship.

Host Teacher Yang greeted everyone with a smile, "Hello, netizens watching the live broadcast, good evening, we meet again. Our first segment in the studio today is an interview, where ten guests will talk about their psychological process during the recording of the second season of the variety show."

"The director is here too, so we can all complain about each other in front of him."

The 500 fans watching at the scene burst out laughing, and the netizens in the live broadcast room also laughed heartily.

"So, which side should we start with? Should you continue drawing lots, or should Director Xu decide?"

Before Xu Daolai could speak, Qiu Zhenlong smiled and gestured, "Let Don Juan's group go first."

I suspect Uncle Long is also a fan of the Ginger and Sugar couple.

[Sister, look closely, it's obvious they're all shipping them, Teacher Xie Fei is grinning from ear to ear.]

[Haha, you can't blame them for shipping them, only the movie star's aura can hold up Sister Jiang among the group]

Don Juan didn't deny it, and said with a smile, "Actually, my emotional journey is reflected in the show."

Wei Lai and the others egged him on, insisting that he say a few words.

Teacher Yang also said, "Teacher Tang only needs to say a few words. If I don't say a word, the fans will complain about my hosting skills."

Don Juan had no choice but to continue, "Since none of us speak Italian, I volunteered to translate and do what I could to ease everyone's psychological burden."

"But as you all know now, Mingyue can also speak the language, but she didn't try to steal my thunder, and I'm very grateful to her."

When Jiang Mingyue was mentioned by Tang Huang, not only did everyone present laugh, but the viewers in the live stream also couldn't stop laughing.

[Haha, Sister Jiang wasn't familiar with the movie star at first, and she had a really cold face the whole time.]

[Hehe, the way Sister Jiang looks at the Best Actor is so adorable!]

Sister, are your eyesight really that good? Sister Jiang is just smiling helplessly, okay?
