Chapter 477 Someone Bribed the Judges
The passionate background music suddenly sounded in the venue.
Along with the sound of music, the hearts of countless Chinese people are lifted up.
The Most Popular Singer Award is Ruan Qi’s second nomination.
Can she win this award?
Amidst the anticipation and nervousness of many people, two award presenters dressed in their best clothes walked onto the stage.
At the same time, Shen Wenqian, who was backstage, received a call.
"Bribe the jury? The Hawke family?"
"That's right." Wan Teng's voice, steady but with a hint of coldness, came over the phone. "Old Hawke's third son personally met with the head of the Grammy Awards jury yesterday and gave him 50 million."
Old Hawke's third son?
Isn't that Aisha Hawke's biological father? !
Shen Wenqian's heart instantly rose, and he quickly asked, "What does he want to do? Is he trying to secretly deal with Xiao Qi?"
Wan Teng on the other end of the line hummed, "He wants the judges to reveal the final winners of the Most Popular Song and Most Popular Singer awards. He also implicitly told the judges that European and American awards are best won by their own people; Easterners are just outsiders."
Shen Wenqian almost blurted out a classic Chinese curse.
As expected of Elsa Hawke’s biological father, he is as disgusting as his daughter!
Shen Wenqian was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Did the head of the judging panel agree?"
"I didn't agree." Wan Teng paused, his tone a little strange. "Before, you were worried that Aisha Hawke might do something tricky, so you asked me to keep an eye on the judging panel. Coincidentally, I have a good friend on the judging panel."
Shen Wenqian's heart moved, "Mr. Wan, your friend couldn't be..."
"That's the head of the judging panel." Wan Teng seemed to be trying to hold back a laugh. "His wife and I are good business friends, so I have a good relationship with him as well. After you told me that day, I called him. My original intention was to have him keep an eye on the other judges, but who knew that the Hawke family would actually bribe him directly."
At this point, Wan Teng couldn't help but laugh twice before continuing, "You don't know, the wife of this judge's panel leader is very powerful in the business world. He's not short of money at all. The 50 million bribe from the Hawke family wasn't even enough for him to buy a violin. This guy slapped the check in Aisha Hawke's father's face and pointed at his nose and told him to get lost."
Shen Wenqian imagined the scene and felt refreshed.
Let you bribe the judging panel.
Serves you right!
Shen Wenqian made no effort to conceal his gloating, his mouth corners curled up wildly with laughter, but he said politely: "This matter is all thanks to Mr. Wan, I thank you on behalf of Xiaoqi."
"No need to thank me. I'm Xiao Qi's uncle. This is what I should do. Besides," Wan Teng paused, his voice cold, "Xiao Qi has worked hard to get to this point. Even if he doesn't win the award, it can't be because of such a disgusting person."
…
Ruan Qi had no idea what was happening backstage.
At this time, she was sitting in her chair, looking at the award presenter walking onto the stage with a smile on her face.
The two guests responsible for presenting the Most Popular Singer Award are both very famous, one is a popular queen and the other is a well-known composer in the circle.
The two men picked up the envelope sealed with fire clay, stood in front of the microphone and spoke slowly.
"The nominees for this year's most popular singer are—"
The music in the venue changed, and the MVs of the five nominees appeared on the big screen one after another.
At the same time, the two award presenters opened the envelope containing the final answer.
