Chapter 53 The fifty-third melon is too comprehensive
Shen Que sat there nonchalantly as the host began to introduce the show. The next award to be presented was the most anticipated Best Actor award of the night, and everyone present was filled with nervousness.
Shen Que's cell phone vibrated and he took it out from his school uniform sleeve.
It was a message from Xu Qingye.
Xu Qingye: Congratulations in advance to our best actor.
Shen Que chuckled as he looked at the content of the message. Xu Qingye was always so confident. He never knew how he came to these conclusions.
Shen Que was smiling when the camera suddenly turned to him. At the same time, the host read out the shortlist. Among the many talented actors, Shen Que's name was very unexpected.
There are not many hit dramas this year, and the most popular one is "Good Men and Good Women". However, "Good Men and Good Women" is a female-led drama, and Su Wen has already won the Best Actress award, so the male lead naturally does not have much competitiveness.
Although some other dramas are good, they lack some explosive points and always feel a bit bland.
Photos of several people appeared side by side on the screen. Shen Que's photo was a still of him crying with red eyes, which was particularly conspicuous on the screen.
None of the five nominated people are famous. In essence, the five nominated this time are already dark horses, but Shen is indeed the dark horse among dark horses.
The Golden Swallow Award system does not only look at the popularity of the drama, but also considers more the acting skills of the actors and some more comprehensive data.
Chen Que was too young and an amateur, so his nomination had already shocked many people. Some people in the circle who had never noticed Chen Que began to inquire about him.
Shen Que has never studied acting. He relies entirely on his talent and aura. Of course, he also works hard. The results obtained from this combination are particularly amazing.
The moment Shen Que's name was read out, Yi He was the saddest. He didn't know why he had to add that being shortlisted also counted. This time he really had to work for Xu Qingye for free.
"Boss, I suddenly feel that you might have made the right bet."
Yi He suddenly had a strong premonition that Xu Qingye might not be guessing blindly. He had seen clips from several of the shortlisted dramas, and if he didn't think about it hard, he couldn't remember the plot.
In such a comparison, Shen Que's character is much more impressive. He is probably the most tearful male protagonist in recent years.
Xu Qingye didn't say anything. He looked at the direction of the stage seriously. The award presenter already had the list of Best Actor winners in his hand. He opened the card and took a look. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he returned to his calm smile.
"His performance is pure and natural. He's young and promising, and has a bright future ahead of him. Congratulations to this year's young Best Actor, Shen Que."
The guest read out Shen Que's name, the camera turned over, and Shen Que was projected on the big screen again.
Shen Que was slightly surprised to hear his own name. His mind was full of the text messages Xu Qingye sent him, and suddenly a very absurd idea popped up in his mind.
Xu Qingye, can you predict something?
The cheers drowned out the music, and Shen Que stood there at a loss. He subconsciously scratched his ear and was urged to walk to the stage. He searched the audience, hoping to see Xu Qingye, but unfortunately there were too many people in the venue and he couldn't see clearly.
This was the second young man to come on stage in school uniform tonight. Every step he took attracted much attention. The moment his name was called, the audience was filled with applause, and there was no questioning.
In awards, upsets are always questioned, but this time perhaps the nominated works were not particularly surprising, so Shen Que's appearance was eye-opening.
Sometimes luck is also a kind of strength. When Shen Que stood on the stage and looked down, the scenery was completely different. There were many people below the stage, holding up cheering sticks densely, and it looked like a starry sky.
Chen Que looked really young and immature. The host couldn't help but smile kindly at him, just like looking at an outstanding child. She naturally understood Chen Que's silence at the moment as nervousness. She walked over and gently patted Chen Que's shoulder as a kind of encouragement.
The award presenter handed the trophy to Shen Que. Shen Que took the trophy and held it tightly, which made his mood change.
The people below the stage are cheering for him, the stage is a dazzling backdrop, and he stands there being looked up at, a rising star of the future.
At this moment, all the words Xu Qingye had said to him before became real. He used to think that Xu Qingye was just saying nice things to coax him.
"Mr. Shen, how do you feel standing here holding the trophy? Do you want to share it with everyone? I see you've been in a daze for a while."
The host handed her the microphone, and her calmness surprised her. In such a situation, it wouldn't be strange for him to cry with joy, but it was rare to see him so calm.
Taking the microphone, Shen Que straightened his back and his eyes swept over the crowd below the stage again. There were many shining stars here, and he was just an accidental intruder, but he happened to become the most dazzling star today.
Shen Que thought for a long time before he spoke.
"Standing here, accepting everyone's applause and blessings, is a life I never imagined before. I used to live a routine life, and I could predict what my future life would be like.
I majored in philosophy, which is completely different from acting, so becoming an actor was never in my plan.
There's a classic philosophical question: Who am I? I've been pondering this question for a while now. Acting is a significant departure from my life, a choice that deviates from all my original plans. Lately, I've been asking myself, is acting the life I want? Holding the trophy, the answer suddenly dawned on me.
For me, filming is my first act of rebellion in over twenty years, and I'm delighted and excited about this rebellious life. I know my life plans need to change, and I hope it's a decision I won't regret. Thank you all for your recognition and support. I still have a long road ahead of me, and I need you to accompany me."
Shen Que bowed deeply to the audience. His performance was more calm than what one would expect at his age. He stood on the stage and talked freely, telling everyone earnestly about his ambitions in this industry. His sincerity did not make people feel uncomfortable at all, but instead made people look forward to him.
Everyone is curious about how far an amateur who accidentally breaks into this circle can go.
After a brief silence, warm applause broke out from the audience. Shen Que returned to the stage amid the applause. When the camera shifted away from him, Shen Que took out his cell phone and took a look. The phone had been vibrating many times in his pocket.
Shen Que received a lot of messages. He glanced at them and clicked on the one sent by Xu Qingye first.
Xu Qingye didn't say anything, but just posted a photo of himself standing on the stage to receive the award. Xu Qingye's photo was as outstanding as ever, but the fact that he was wearing a school uniform to receive the award gave people the illusion that he was a "Three Good Students" student.
There has been heated discussion online about tonight's ceremony, and Shen Que's name has even been on the hot search list. At the same time, "the number one gossip-mongering account in the entertainment industry" has also been on the hot search list.
Xu Qingye packed up his camera and started arguing with netizens online. His account is not aloof and he often interacted with fans before. Now that he is on the hot search, there are a lot of comments on him. Of course, there are many unfriendly comments among them.
Kick a few times while passing by: The winner was known before the award ceremony. There must be something shady going on. If there is no shady dealings, how would the marketing account know?
The entertainment industry’s number one whistleblower: If there’s any shady dealings, I’ll eat you live.
The dogs shook their heads after hearing this: "I mean no harm, I'm just asking sincerely how you knew that."
The entertainment industry’s number one gossip source: some analysis and bold guesses.
Manshan Monkey Butt finally said: emmmm, if it was really a guess, then what if Shen Que didn’t win the prize, wouldn’t it be embarrassing?
The entertainment industry’s number one gossip account: If you guess wrong, just secretly delete it and pretend you never posted it.
······
Xu Qingye interacted with netizens for a while, and the award ceremony officially ended. Next was dinner time. The organizer arranged dinner for the media, which of course was not at the same table as the actors'. However, this did not affect Xu Qingye's search for Chen Que.
Xu Qingye packed up his things and ran away quickly. Yi He saw how anxious he was and immediately pulled Cao Muan to follow him.
Xu Qingye wants to eat alone!!!
Chen Que is one of the most eye-catching stars tonight, and the crew of "A Summer Named After You" is definitely the brightest presence tonight, including the Best Screenwriter Award winner Lu Zhiwen, Best Actor Chen Que, and Newcomer Award winner Zhuang Yang.
It was naturally inappropriate to wear school uniform to eat, so Zhao Wen prepared clothes for Shen Que. Shen Que said goodbye to the crew and went to the lounge to change clothes.
Shen Que sent the address of the lounge to Xu Qingye, and soon Xu Qingye came over. Shen Que had just changed into a suit, and Xu Qingye rushed over as soon as he entered the door and hugged him tightly.
"Congratulations, I knew you would win the prize."
Xu Qingye was jumping around while holding Chen Que, and looked much more excited than Chen Que.
Yi He followed behind, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Xu Qingye hugging Shen Que like a koala. He habitually took out his camera and took a picture. Not long after starting work, his professional instincts had been cultivated.
Fortunately, there were other people in the lounge, and it was understandable that friends hugged each other out of excitement.
"Let go quickly, the clothes are wrinkled."
When Zhao Wen came over with something, she saw Xu Qingye holding Chen Que. Her temples throbbed a few times and she quickly pulled him away.
Who knew that Xu Qingye was so excited that Zhao Wen came to pull him, and he gave Zhao Wen a hug, which made Zhao Wen very at a loss. She simply hugged her for a very short time and then separated. Then she saw Xu Qingye hugging everyone in the lounge, and then took out a few red envelopes from his bag and distributed them to everyone.
Zhao Wen couldn't hold back when she saw the red envelope. Xu Qingye was still too comprehensive.
"How come you've even prepared the red envelope? Are you so sure Shen Que can win the prize?"
Zhao Wen suddenly felt that she had neglected her duty and had forgotten to prepare these things in advance.
"I didn't expect to win such a big award at once, but even if it's just a rookie award, it's worth celebrating, so I prepared a little red envelope."
Xu Qingye explained casually, and Shen Queque took out his mobile phone and shook it in front of him. It was his advance congratulations to him for winning the Best Actor award.
"What do you say? Can you really predict the future?"
"I know this question."
Before Xu Qingye could speak, Yi He raised his hand and repeated Xu Qingye's previous analysis.
After hearing this, Zhao Wen couldn't help but reflect on herself. Why didn't she think of these things in advance?
As if guessing what Zhao Wen was thinking, Xu Qingye patted her shoulder.
"Don't worry, the publicity has been arranged. The recent popularity will not be bad. You won't waste your money."
Zhao Wen had been busy all day and hadn't had time to check her phone. She quickly opened it and took a look, and immediately saw a lot of news on the hot searches.
The one from the entertainment industry’s top gossip account attracted the most attention.
I choose him, Shen Que.
