Upon hearing this, Fu Shiyi, with a gossipy air, leaned over and asked.
"You mean, Corliss has no chance?"
"Not necessarily. You have a 50% chance of winning the award, while she has a 50% chance of not winning," Gu Weiwei said with a smile.
Two nominees were nominated for both Best Actress and Best Actor, and the final selection was made by the chairman.
Kolis is one of the nominees for Best Actress, while the other is a Japanese actress, so the award may not necessarily go to her.
While Fu Shiyi and she were gossiping, the awards ceremony for the main competition had already begun. The audience award and the best artistic contribution award were presented first, followed by the jury special award and the lifetime achievement award.
Finally, the awards for Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Actress were presented.
Fu Shiyi was nervous about whether he would win the award, while Ke Lisi, sitting diagonally behind them, was even more nervous than him.
Previously, she and her fans mocked Mu Weiwei for rising to fame through unspoken rules and for having inflated awards.
Now that Fu Hanzheng has clarified that the two are married, if she can't win the Best Actress award in the main competition, she will really lose face.
If Mu Weiwei hadn't come to the film festival and become one of the judges for the main competition, she wouldn't have been worried at all about missing out on the award.
However, Mu Weiwei got involved, and Fu Hanzheng even came.
Even if Bruce has made the arrangements, if Fu Hanzheng intervenes, the award will be beyond their control.
Of the final three awards, the Best Director award was presented first.
The award winner was the director of the film starring Corliss. The director went on stage to accept the award and gave an acceptance speech.
Following the Best Director award, the Best Actor award was announced, and Gu Weiwei, as the presenter, was once again invited onto the stage by the host.
After receiving the card with the name of the Best Actor written on it, she glanced at the name, smiled, and gave a mysterious introduction.
"This Best Actor has made a remarkable improvement in his new movie, and... he looked great tonight."
Fu Shiyi sat in the audience, his hands trembling with nervousness.
"Sister-in-law, stop keeping me in suspense."
However, Gu Weiwei did not reveal the answer immediately, but continued to keep it a secret.
"This award is well-deserved, and I believe his new film will allow everyone to see a completely new... Fu Shiyi!"
"Congratulations to our Best Actor of the Night, Mr. Fu Shiyi!"
...
Upon hearing this, Fu Shiyi excitedly hugged Ding Dongdong, who was standing next to him.
Then, in a moment of excitement, he even hugged his own brother.
However, Fu Hanzheng pushed her away with a look of disgust.
Under the spotlight, Fu Shiyi straightened his suit and walked onto the stage, accepting the trophy from Gu Weiwei.
Then, he opened his arms as if to hug Gu Weiwei, but then suddenly remembered something and changed his outstretched arms to a handshake.
This move amused Chinese netizens who were watching the film festival live, and the live chat was flooded with enthusiastic comments.
[The third young master wanted to hug him, but probably remembered his brother was sitting in the audience, so he opted for an official handshake instead.]
[No wonder the Third Young Master tried so hard to distance himself from the rumors with Weiwei; it turns out he was afraid of his brother.]
[Thinking back to the rumors about Third Young Master and Weiwei, it's no wonder President Fu was so disgusted by his hug just now.]
[In President Fu's eyes, only his wife is his true love; his younger brother is someone he picked up off the street.]
[Poor Third Young Master, he came with his older brother and sister-in-law, but he was isolated like an orphan.]
