Chapter 501 She came in a hurry and left unexpectedly
It was unknown whether Bai Qiujing heard what she said clearly. He had an oxygen tank on his face and was breathing weakly. It took him a long while to reply with a "hmm".
Shen Zhichu smiled and said, "I have good news for you. The movie "Who is the Ghost" that we filmed together has been nominated for an international film award. I will go to the film festival to receive the award in a few days. Do you like hearing this news?"
Bai Qiujing's lips moved and he stammered two words: "I like it."
The sound didn't come out, Shen Zhichu couldn't hear it clearly, so he leaned over and said, "Huh? What did you just say?"
Bai Qiujing exhaled and said word by word, "I like little crybabies."
When Shen Zhichu heard it clearly, his whole body froze and he felt a severe pain in his heart. His pain nerves were jolted and his throat also hurt. He couldn't speak for a long time.
At this time, Bai Qiujing was already unconscious, and only heard Shen Zhichu's question: "Do you like it?"
I like it...
"I like the little crybaby..."
"I like the string of candied haws that just appeared in the amusement park..."
"I like the wisteria tree in the orphanage..."
"I like Chuchu..."
Tears flowed uncontrollably, and Shen Zhichu squatted down and held Bai Qiujing's hand.
"I like you too. I like you who carried me home on your back when I was eight years old, you who gave me candied haws, you who called me a little crybaby, and you who turned into a little fool. I like you all. Whether you are Brother Li, Bai Qiu, or Bai Qiujing, I like you all. You have never been the one I can't let go of..." The white moonlight is you, and the cinnabar mole on my heart is also you.
Bai Qiujing said that she was a surprise that he would only meet once in his life, and he was also a surprise that she would meet.
Bai Qiujing fell asleep again. Sleeping didn't make it so painful. When she fell asleep, she could finally touch him.
Chen Zhichu touched Bai Qiujing's thin jaw and pale lips, and said hoarsely with sobs: "You can sleep, but don't sleep too long. If you sleep for too long, you won't be able to see me. Don't you like me? If you like me, you must hold on tight. You can't let me go this time. You said you would carry me home and you can't break your promise. I'm still waiting for you to marry me..."
Shen Zhichu looked at the heart rate monitor beside him. He could understand the data on it. Bai Qiujing's physical condition was getting worse day by day, and all the data were very bad.
Soon the 20th arrived and the operation was scheduled to take ten hours.
The film awards ceremony is on the 21st, one day later, so I have to go out of town to receive the award.
Secretary Lin called her many times to ask if she wanted to go. This film festival was very important and would be broadcast live on various large screens.
This is also the first domestic film to be nominated abroad. The chance of winning is 100%, it just depends on how many awards it can win.
The director has also arranged the schedule and is waiting for Shen Zhichu's notification.
"Go, help me book the plane ticket and prepare the dress."
"Okay, Mr. Shen."
After the call was hung up, Qin Mo had already started preparing. The guarantee for the surgery agreement had been signed three days ago, and the Bai family had all arrived.
Shen Zhichu answered the phone call right in front of them, and Bai Wanwan could hear it clearly from the closest distance.
"Sister Zhichu, are you leaving? My brother has surgery today..." Bai Wanwan's eyes were filled with worry. Although she usually loved to talk back to Bai Qiujing, and would even curse "I don't want you as a brother" when they quarreled fiercely, but a brother is a brother who will support her, protect her, and fulfill her little wishes.
Although she and Bai Qiujing had only known each other for a few years, blood ties were a very strange thing, and she didn't feel that he was a stranger at all.
"I can't accompany him until the last moment of the surgery today. I have to leave to get the honor that belongs to me and him."
Bai Wanwan looked at Shen Zhichu in front of her, and didn't understand how she could remain so calm, so calm that it seemed as if she no longer cared about Bai Qiujing's life or death.
"Sister Zhichu, aren't you afraid that my brother won't make it? This may be the last time you..." She couldn't say the rest of the words.
Shen Zhichu shook his head with a firm tone: "No, he promised me that nothing would happen. I believe him. I will come to see him when I get the award."
The first two times Bai Qiujing had been there, whether it was when he fell on his head as a child and became a fool, or when he was shot in the chest by Lu Tingchuan, he had survived and found her and walked to her side.
What's the saying? You'll always meet the right person. She and Bai Qiujing have experienced life and death in their lives. It's a pity, they haven't experienced anything, so how could they be afraid of this operation?
But what if... what if he can't make it?
…
"Boss Shen, we're here."
Shen Zhichu's closed eyes suddenly opened. She was wearing a black evening dress that was designed like a wedding dress. She held up the hem of her skirt and stepped onto the ground in high heels.
As soon as he got out of the car, he was greeted by dazzling flashes of light. Shen Zhichu squinted his eyes, and after getting used to the glare, he straightened his back and went in.
There are a lot of reporters here today, more than in previous film festivals.
First, last year's most popular movie "Who is the Ghost" was nominated, and the two main actors in this movie are the most popular domestic actors Shen Zhichu and Bai Qiujing.
Second, the outside world has learned that Bai Qiujing is in the hospital, and the specific situation is still unknown, but it is rumored that he is dying.
However, Bai Qiujing has not appeared for a long time, which makes people want to dig out some real information. Shen Zhichu's arrival makes all reporters' eyes light up.
As soon as she appeared, reporters surrounded her or followed her. Shen Zhichu had anticipated this situation and hired many bodyguards. Apart from the noise in her ears, she did not feel any other discomfort.
This international film festival was quite grand, with live broadcasts even on the big screens in shopping malls, and radio and television recordings also being played.
Before leaving, Qin Mo told her that if Bai Qiujing could wake up within 48 hours after the operation, he would be out of danger. Otherwise, he would become a vegetable or his internal organs would become necrotic.
Shen Zhichu had been catching a flight all day and doing her styling and makeup. She had been out for 40 hours. She looked up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly today. She really hoped that Bai Qiujing could see such good weather too.
Shen Zhichu's eyes were sore from staring at the sun. To her, Bai Qiujing was her sun, warming her throughout her life.
Her previous life was like a flower kept at home, with no worries about food and clothing, but lacking light and freedom, and eventually withered and died.
Shen Zhichu followed the people at the venue into the room and was lost in thought the entire time. Many people at the venue wanted to get to know her, but were repelled by the cold aura surrounding her.
Soon the host came on stage and began to announce the top award.
Best Film of the Year - "Who is the Ghost"
Best Director - Lin Wang, He Chao's masterpiece "Who is the Ghost"
Best Screenwriter - Shen Qing
Best Actor - Bai Qiujing
Best Actress - Shen Zhichu
…
A movie won a grand slam. Although many people guessed this result, they were still shocked when it was announced.
There were five awards, but only three people came. Shen Zhichu walked up with her skirt lifted and looked at the camera.
"Who is the Ghost" is the first domestic film to win the Grand Slam in international film awards. This honor is no longer just an individual honor, but has been upgraded to China.
With these awards, how formidable would Shen Zhichu's status and future in the international film industry be?
Because it was a live broadcast, when the awards were announced, Weibo was paralyzed and the popular posts were swept away at the fastest speed.
The trolls who once criticized Shen Zhichu and mocked the movie "Who is the Ghost" finally shut up at this moment and watched the screen quietly to witness this historic scene.
Such a grand occasion has never been seen before. Shen Zhichu usually does not appear, but every time he appears, he makes a big splash.
Looking at Shen Zhichu like this now, who can still think of the Shen Zhichu who was blackened by the whole network in the past? Now she is shining brightly, facing the scenery, with bright eyes.
This is the most dazzling place in the film industry, the pinnacle of actor supremacy. If Shen Zhichu wins these awards and returns to the country, he will be able to sweep the entertainment industry.
Shen Zhichu's face was calm. When other people received the trophy, they were either so happy that they cried, or their hands were shaking with excitement. Only Shen Zhichu took the trophy and began to give his acceptance speech.
A thank-you speech? Shen Zhichu hadn't thought about it. She'd heard that most people would memorize the speech in advance, but she didn't, because receiving an award like this once was enough for her.
On the first day she came back, she looked at "herself" in the mirror and swore that she would live well, both for herself and for "Shen Qing", and she would help Shen Qing realize her wish.
Looking back on the journey I have taken and looking at the familiar faces in the audience, now they all seem like a thing of the past.
Can Bai Qiujing hear what she says while she is standing here?
Shen Zhichu opened his mouth and said, "I want to thank Shen Qing here, because it is because of her that this movie and the person I am today are possible. I also want to thank the two directors for giving life to this movie. I also want to thank Bai Qiujing, because he made me understand the meaning of life. I also want to thank everyone for their support. Thank you all... Then I would like to take this opportunity to announce something..."
"From today on, I will quit the entertainment industry and the film industry. The road ahead is long and we will never meet again." After saying this, Shen Zhichu tightly grasped the microphone in his hand, faced the audience, and bowed deeply in front of countless cameras.
