On the red carpet, legendary actress Ling Yan outshone all the other actresses in both her style and presence, becoming the focus of the film festival tonight.
This led many reporters and fans present to believe that she was the only choice for Best Actress at this year's Locarno Film Festival.
After all, she won more than a dozen awards with her first film, "The Immortal Dream," so it was no surprise that her comeback film, "The Immortal Dream 2," won her the Best Actress award at Locarno.
Ling Yan's agent also posted the news of her participation in the Locarno Film Festival on several of Ling Yan's social media accounts.
On Weibo in China, the hashtag [Ling Yan Nuojia Nuo TV Festival] has been pushed to fifth place on the trending topics list, with Ling Yan's fans showing their support for their idol.
With Goddess Ling there, this film festival awards ceremony feels like there's absolutely no suspense left.

Compared to Ling Yan's dazzling appearance on the Locarno Film Festival red carpet, which generated a lot of online discussion.
Mu Weiwei went to the film festival, keeping such a low profile that it didn't even cause a ripple on the internet.
Of course, this is also why Gu Weiwei asked Qiao Lin not to release the news before the award results were announced.
While busy promoting the film in China, Fu Shiyi and his entourage also kept up with the film festival coverage during their breaks.
Upon looking at the live broadcast page, he found it filled with photos and reports about the legendary actress Ling Yan, which infuriated him so much that he complained about Gu Weiwei on WeChat.
"Sister-in-law, you went, yet Ling Yan still managed to steal the spotlight?"
With her looks and aura, how could she make Ling Yan feel completely invisible?
Gu Weiwei glanced at the two WeChat messages that had both been used to criticize her. After replying to Qiao Lin, she then replied to Fu Shiyi.
"They've been out of the spotlight for years before making a comeback, why should I try to steal their thunder?"
Her focus was on today's awards, not on stealing the spotlight on the red carpet.
She doesn't lack this bit of popularity right now, so why bother with all that effort?
"Of course we should fight for her! She's Gu Siting's fiancée, and you're my brother's fiancée. If you let her steal the spotlight, wouldn't that make my brother lose face?" Fu Shiyi was very indignant, and she couldn't stand seeing Gu Siting's side being so smug.
“Your brother isn’t as shallow as you,” Gu Weiwei replied via voice message.
“My brother is better than Gu Siting, so of course my brother’s woman must be better than Gu Siting’s woman. How can you say that’s superficial?” Fu Shiyi replied instantly, his tone somewhat disappointed.
Gu Weiwei thought for a moment and then asked a question.
"So, you're saying I'm not as good as Gu Siting's woman?"
Fu Shiyi immediately realized what was happening and replied with a forced smile.
"No, I absolutely didn't mean that. Sister-in-law, how could you be inferior to that woman surnamed Ling? You are much younger, prettier, and more talented than her."
He just thought that his sister-in-law should outshine everyone and make the actress Ling completely invisible. He didn't mean to doubt that his sister-in-law was inferior to actress Ling.
How could the woman his brother had his eye on be inferior to Gu Siting's taste?
"Then what are you still not satisfied with?" Gu Weiwei asked.
Fu Shiyi knew that he wouldn't get any advantage if he continued discussing this topic, so he simply spoke up.
"Sister-in-law, it's time to go on stage, I can't chat anymore."
Gu Weiwei put away her phone and looked up to see Ling Yan entering the venue surrounded by a group of people, greeting those around her with elegance and confidence.
It's clear that she has already claimed the Best Actress award for tonight.
