After leaving the event, Xiao He asked Lao Qi to take Xiao's mother back to her hotel to rest.
He and Liu Rulan sat in the van, discussing the current situation.
Those smear articles seem to have been designed to annoy Xiao He before he won the award, and then quickly retreat. So the negative publicity surrounding Xiao He has subsided, and the overall public opinion is still dominated by his fans. The top trending topics are mostly about Xiao He winning the Best Actor award.
However, the incident of "Xiao He buying the award" still left a mark on the minds of some people, and in many hidden places, a new group of Xiao He haters emerged.
However, Xiao He and his group didn't care about these haters.
When it comes to winning awards, the process is not important; only the result matters.
"No matter what, winning the double Best Actor award is our ultimate goal. As long as we can achieve it, the negative public opinion is not a problem."
Liu Rulan took the initiative to comfort Xiao He, "You should have understood this when you decided to run this award. Don't worry, once this wave of hype subsides, everyone will only remember your achievements."
The internet has a short memory; as long as Xiao He continues to produce excellent works, in a year or two, who will remember the current controversy?
Once you win the Best Actor award, that's it.
“Of course, I’m not an honest person.” Xiao He shrugged. “If I can take it, I will definitely take it. Pretending to be virtuous won’t really shut everyone up.”
It will definitely be difficult for Yu Xiu to win the Golden Flower Award. Even if his acting skills are enough to prove himself, various external factors are enough to make his winning the award highly controversial.
But so what?
He has the ability to take it, and he is confident that he will prove himself capable of it later.
The insults and doubts online are not that important.
“But this public opinion crisis is really strange.” Liu Rulan looked at Xiao He with a serious expression. “The ones who know my movements in Beijing are most likely my team in Beijing.”
However, they rarely participate in activities in Beijing. Their main social circle is still with Director Ning, and they do not have any conflicts of interest with other companies or teams in Beijing.
It's said that there's no love without a reason, but there's no hate without a reason either, right?
Xiao He raised an eyebrow: "How about I investigate?"
"No need, their investigation should be progressing quickly."
Sure enough, Liu Rulan's phone rang the next moment.
She answered the phone immediately.
A few minutes later, Liu Rulan hung up the phone and looked at Xiao He again: "It turns out that the team that made the move this time was from Beijing. Several teams made moves at the same time. I guess they thought you wanted to use Director Ning's influence to enter their circle, so some people got anxious."
If there aren't enough things in one circle, then naturally, outsiders will be excluded.
Moreover, Xiao He's achievements are indeed remarkable, so it's normal for some people to be envious.
"However, I feel that most of these people are being used as pawns. No matter how anxious they are, they haven't yet formed an open conflict of interest with you."
Liu Rulan's words sounded somewhat strange.
Xiao He didn't just take their things from them right away, so why are they all so anxious?
They can actually do something so disgusting...
Xiao He frowned as he scrolled through the comments online, rubbing his temples in exasperation: "Why am I having such bad luck lately? I always seem to run into bad things online."
He just encountered Viker, and now this group from the Beijing circle has come. Is he trying to boost his performance at the end of the year because all his bad luck is coming up?
However, it's also possible that because he's become famous now, no matter if he's criticized or praised, countless eyes are always watching him closely.
"Could it be that something went wrong with Director Yang Li?"
Xiao He suddenly remembered Ning Jiaqi's reminder to him before he left.
"You mean 'The Red Path to the Snowy Mountains'?" Liu Rulan narrowed her eyes. "Is someone trying to steal your role?"
