"Of course it's good. I've given my best performance since my debut." Fu Shiyi said confidently.
He's been a top-tier celebrity for years, but after a while, he started to feel it wasn't very interesting.
There are many fans, and many of them are die-hard fans.
As a result, he was gradually criticized for his mediocre acting skills and mediocre music, despite being adored by die-hard fans.
So he wanted to seriously prove his abilities and let those critics know that he wasn't lacking in acting skills, he was just too lazy to show them off.
Gu Weiwei chuckled, "The highest level?"
He didn't know much about Fu Shiyi's previous skill level, but judging from his tone, he wasn't very skilled before.
"Anyway, even if I don't win this award, it can't be Corliss who wins it," Fu Shiyi said angrily.
Gu Weiwei frowned. "Corliss? Who's that?"
Fu Shiyi sighed and explained to her the person with whom he had had some conflicts in the past.
"An American actress of Chinese descent returned to China to develop her career after you retired from acting. She signed with Xingyao Culture, a company under the Qin family, and frequently uses your name in press releases to claim that you outshine her."
"The reason is the Qin family's influence. Xingyao Culture was about to collapse, but Bruce's investment saved it."
"She took on a big production this year, directed by the renowned Steven Wood, and backed by American media mogul Bruce. She's likely to sweep up a lot of awards at the Tokyo International Film Festival."
...
"But she's aiming for Best Actress, and you're aiming for Best Actor. Is that considered competition?" Gu Weiwei asked.
“But the male actor who co-starred with him won Best Actor at a Class A film festival last year. Do you think it has nothing to do with me? Besides, regarding the news about you and our brother, that woman’s team hired a lot of online trolls to smear you. We absolutely cannot tolerate this kind of person.” Fu Shiyi was furious.
Gu Weiwei glanced at him. "Film festivals judge by the work itself. If her film is truly outstanding, I can't go against my conscience."
Fu Shiyi was so angry he had a headache. "Sister-in-law, why are you boosting other people's morale?"
He knew that she had always been very respectful of movies, but now that Curse had Bruce as her powerful backer, if he hadn't known about his sister-in-law's relationship with his brother, he probably wouldn't know how he would have badmouthed her.
In particular, with the presence of a director who has won numerous awards in the United States and has directed countless high-grossing films, as well as a three-time Golden Horse Award winner, the box office after its release may well reach the record set by his sister-in-law.
At that time, Corliss's fans will definitely seize the opportunity to mock her, the actress who has been out of the spotlight for several years and has won billions in awards.
"Okay, we haven't seen the movie yet, so who knows?" Gu Weiwei said.
The dozen or so films nominated are not necessarily without other outstanding works.
That's how film festivals are; sometimes being the most popular doesn't guarantee an award, and there are often unexpected dark horses.
Before dinner, Fu Shiyi slunk away under the intimidation and threats of his own brother.
He had only been gone a short while when Yuan Shuo and Yuan Meng returned together, saying they had already had dinner outside and wouldn't be joining them.
So, dinner consisted of Fu Hanzheng and Gu Weiwei, plus two little buns sitting in high chairs.
After dinner, she busied herself bathing and changing the two children's clothes, and coaxing them to sleep in the room. She then saw Fu Hanzheng still waiting in the room for her to help him undress.
She said, thinking about the awkwardness of last night.
"I'll ask my master to help you."
She really couldn't keep doing this, helping him take off and put on his clothes every day.
“I don’t have a hobby of being naked in front of outsiders,” Fu Hanzheng said.
Gu Weiwei pouted, "You're both men, it's more convenient for him to help you."
"I'm not available," Fu Hanzheng said in a deep voice.
He went to such lengths to break his right hand because he wanted her to take care of him, not because he wanted to be taken care of by a man.
