Wang Jialiang looked at the crowd that was still arriving and squinted, saying, "Looks like there are still quite a few people behind us. Several more groups will be coming down soon."
Fang Yang laughed and said, "There are so many awards, and each award has several nominees. It must be a lot if you add them all up. Okay, our car is here. Let's go."
The young woman in charge of Fang Yang's group guided the car to stop in front of them. "Mr. Fang, we should be going now. Is there anything else you need us to do?"
Fang Yang saw that Zhou Yi and the other two had already consciously moved to the back row, leaving two seats in the middle row, and couldn't help but want to give them a thumbs up!
"It's alright, let's go quickly."
He pulled Zhou Xin into the car. Didn't they see the two cars behind them were already waiting? If they didn't leave soon, people would start yelling at them.
As soon as the car door closed, the girl urged the driver to hurry up and leave. The car behind was already in position, and if they didn't leave soon, they would be blocking the other cars' spots. Hunan TV station was extremely strict about the time; the interval between the two cars had to be within three minutes. If they exceeded the time limit, they would be in for a scolding!
The driver was a seasoned veteran. Once Fang Yang and the others were seated, the van sped off in a flash, only slowing down at the exit. Then, amidst cheers from the crowd, he brought the van to a steady stop in front of the red carpet.
The young woman jumped out of the passenger seat and quickly opened the car door for Fang Yang. "Mr. Fang, have a pleasant evening. You can get out of the car now and walk the red carpet. Please take good care of your female companion!"
Fang Yang nodded and gentlemanly reached out to help Zhou Xin out of the car. "Thank you for your hard work and for guiding me."
Zhou Xin, arm in arm with Fang Yang, waited a few seconds until she saw that Zhou Yi and the other two had gotten out of the car. Then, she strode down the red carpet toward the entrance.
Fang Yang is very famous now. Although he doesn't appear in public often, every time he does, it's a big event. This makes most entertainment reporters both love and hate Fang Yang. Just like now, although they know there won't be many interview opportunities, all the cameras have turned to Fang Yang, making the group walking the red carpet suddenly realize that no one is paying attention to them, which is extremely embarrassing.
Security guards blocked both sides of the red carpet, so Fang Yang ignored all the cameras and microphones that were being pointed at him. However, in order to allow Zhou Xin and the other three to take more photos, he didn't move very fast and would occasionally strike a pose to make it easier for people to take pictures. As for interviews, well, that was out of the question.
After filming "Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty," Zhou Yi and his two friends gained some popularity. In the past six months, they have all taken on several roles and are currently in the rising phase of their careers. Naturally, they cherish this opportunity and frequently pose for photos at the request of reporters.
Even the longest road eventually comes to an end. A few minutes later, Fang Yang signed his name on the signature wall, marking the end of his journey on the red carpet.
It was the first time for Zhou Xin and the other three to walk the red carpet, and they were all very excited. Their faces were flushed as they chattered on the sidelines, sharing their recent experiences. Fang Yang, on the other hand, craned his neck to see where his seat was.
Zhu Laosan, who had arrived earlier, had been keeping an eye on the entrance. When he saw Fang Yang and his group of five enter, he stood up and greeted them, "Over here, over here."
Fang Yang, who had been searching, naturally spotted Zhu Laosan immediately and greeted the four who were still excitedly sharing their stories, saying, "Alright, let's go to our seats first, we can talk about it later."
The long-standing blood ties that had been suppressed within the film crew came into play at this moment. The four of them immediately stopped talking and obediently followed Fang Yang to their seats.
Along the way, people kept asking about Fang Yang and his group. The key issue was that Fang Yang and his group were too young. Although Fang Yang was well-known in the directing industry, there were actually very few people who knew him. Fang Yang's rise to fame was too fast, and he was initially resisted by the entire industry, so he definitely had a reputation, especially since his later works were all blockbusters!
Upon seeing Fang Yang arrive, Zhu Laosan and the others stood up to greet him, "President Fang, we heard you arrived rather late, so we didn't want to bother you. How about we grab a late-night snack after the awards ceremony tonight?"
Fang Yang remembered that He Jiu was going to treat everyone to a late-night snack, and he felt embarrassed to go to all of them. "It won't work tonight. Teacher He is going to treat everyone to a late-night snack later. You guys go and eat by yourselves. Give the tickets to President Yang later, and the company will treat everyone tonight."
Hu Yue laughed heartily, "Then we must eat our fill! It's a rare opportunity to come to southern Hunan, and there are plenty of delicious foods here."
Wang Zhong joked, "It's stinky tofu, I guarantee you'll eat your fill."
Fang Yang was also amused by Wang Zhong. Seeing Fu Ming walking over, he smiled and said, "It's rare for our company to be all together like this today, and four groups have come. The weather here in Xingcheng is just right, so I'll give you all a day off. You can stay here for a few days and then go back. The company will cover all the expenses, is that okay?"
Upon hearing that it included a travel option, Liu Cailu became interested. "Mr. Fang, is there no limit to the location or the amount of money?"
Zhong Hongbao, who was standing to the side, tapped Liu Cailu on the head and said, "Dream on. Do you want me to send you a full-service massage?"
Fu Ming chuckled. "Zhu Laosan, you old guys are quite interesting. Anyway, it's a deal. I'll just follow you guys around. As for where we go, you guys can decide."
Fang Yang and his group's lively conversation attracted the attention of those around them, and soon half the hall was filled with eyes on them. Just then, Wang Jialiang walked over with his group and, seeing Fang Yang and his friends talking so excitedly, asked curiously, "What are you talking about? Why are you so excited?"
Fu Ming turned around and saw that it was Wang Jialiang and his group. He laughed and said, "Zhu Laosan said he wanted to treat President Fang to a late-night snack, but President Fang already had someone else invited. So he said we should have a get-together by ourselves and get a few days off. The company can reimburse us for the rest of the time."
