Chapter 150 Magnolia Awards Ceremony
April 8th was the Magnolia Awards ceremony. Qian Muchue took care of her own styling and clothing. She knew best where her strengths lay. For Huang Qingqing, Qian Muchue was definitely the most cost-effective artist she had ever seen, but she had to admit that Qian Muchue's styling always made her feel amazing, and her skills were not inferior to those of big-name stylists.
If every artist could have the same high quality as Qian Muchue, who could both make money and save money, then the agency would definitely be very happy, Huang Qingqing thought wildly.
The entrance time for the Magnolia Awards ceremony starts at 7pm. Qian Muchue left home at around 5pm. There was a bit of traffic on the road, so she arrived at her destination at around 6:30pm. Qian Muchue first met up with the crew of "Nine-Tailed Fox".
The last time the cast of "Nine-Tailed Fox" got together was on "Good Drama is Coming" to promote the movie. Over the past month, there have been no major changes in the other actors, but Qian Muchue's popularity has skyrocketed. Although they haven't seen each other for more than a month, everyone can see news about Qian Muchue almost every day.
Even Feng Qing, a straight man, knew very well what had happened to Qian Muchue during this period. He was quite worried about Qian Muchue at the beginning. Apart from anything else, it would be a pity if Qian Muchue was forced to quit the circle because of the scandal created by her parents with her acting skills. Fortunately, things turned around in the end.
Qian Muchue greeted Feng Qing and Qi Ming with a smile as usual. This time Huang Xiaolei was not there, so Zhao Wan changed her usual behavior and did not say any gossip to Qian Muchue. She had been having a very bad time recently.
Ever since Qian Muchue's situation took a turn, Zhao Wan felt that she was getting more and more unlucky. The director was very unhappy about the role of the leading female in "Record of Immortals" that was previously scheduled, because Wen Jia resigned from the role of the second female lead. Although it has not been officially announced yet, the role is almost gone.
Wei Lai has been spending less and less time with her recently. Two days ago, he accepted two new employees into the company, and a lot of resources were allocated to the two newcomers. Zhao Wan felt a lot of pressure. She should have had a bright future, but now she felt like she had reached a dead end.
When people are unlucky, even drinking cold water will cause food to get stuck in their teeth. Last week, Zhao Wan got a new assistant, and Qiao Yan resigned because of family matters and went home to take care of her mother.
For Zhao Wan, this Magnolia Award for Best Actress is very important. Once she wins this award, her value will immediately increase, and Wei Lai will definitely invest all important resources in her again, instead of competing for resources with two other newcomers like now. Even the haute couture dress she wore today was bought by Zhao Wan herself, unlike before, when Wei Lai would help her borrow very good haute couture dresses.
Looking at Qian Muchue who was chatting and laughing with Feng Qing and others, Zhao Wan gritted her teeth. This time, for the Magnolia Award, not only did Wei Lai take the trouble to find connections, she also spent a lot of money herself. However, the other party has not given her a clear answer yet. But Zhao Wan knows that her biggest opponent now is Qian Muchue.
When it was time for the crew of "Nine-Tailed Fox" to enter, Qian Muchue's partner Feng Qing was arranged to walk in front. The staff made such arrangements, of course, because of Qian Muchue's current popularity. Many media were very interested in taking pictures of Qian Muchue.
Of course, Zhao Wan also knew the reason. She and Qi Ming walked behind the two of them, and one can imagine how unwilling she felt inside. As for Qi Ming, he didn't have too many thoughts. Being nominated for the Best Actor at the Magnolia Awards was already a pleasant surprise for him. As for winning the award in the end, he was not very sure. After all, the other three candidates were all powerful actors in the circle, and the movie "Nine-Tailed Fox" had more outstanding female characters.
The four of them walked onto the red carpet one after another. It was obvious that the media's flash lights were focused on Qian Muchue. Although the dress Zhao Wan wore this time was also very beautiful, compared with Qian Muchue who was wearing an Oriental Verve dress, the color was still a bit overshadowed by the other one, not to mention that her current popularity was not as high as Qian Muchue's.
This year's Magnolia Awards ceremony was star-studded, with well-known directors and actors everywhere. At the venue, Qian Muchue ran into a familiar person, Liu Xi, with whom she had worked before. At that time, Liu Xi played the heroine in "The Best Time".
By the way, Liu Xi was also nominated for the Best Actress Award at the Magnolia Awards for another movie. When she saw Qian Muchue again, Liu Xi was as displeased as ever. She didn't expect that the newcomer from a year and a half ago would now compete with her for the Best Actress Award at the Magnolia Awards.
In the past two years, Liu Xi has been transforming. She used to be a TV drama star, and finally she was nominated for the Magnolia Award with her new movie "Double Face". Once she wins this award, it will be a recognition of her efforts in the past two years, but at present, Qian Muchue is her biggest rival.
As the highest-grossing movie during this year's Spring Festival, Liu Xi has certainly seen it. Not only is the plot of the film interesting, but the actors and director are also very good, especially the role played by Qian Muchue. Many viewers believe that Qian Muchue should win the Magnolia Award this time.
When Qian Muchue saw her senior, theoretically she should have taken the initiative to say hello, but Liu Xi glanced at her and turned around to chat with other artists. Qian Muchue was not a tactless person, so of course she would not take the initiative to go up and cause trouble.
She followed Feng Qing and others and sat in the seats arranged by the staff. Because there would be cameras shooting at any time, in order to make her Oriental Verve dress look good in the camera, Qian Muchue always maintained a good sitting posture, so that no matter from which angle she was photographed, she would look perfect.
Thanks to her good physical condition, she sat for more than four hours at the Magnolia Awards ceremony. Most people really couldn't bear it and would inevitably hunch their backs. Watching the host on the stage making witty remarks, Qian Muchue kept a decent smile.
Zhao Wan, who was sitting next to her, was not so relaxed. Because she was too concerned about gains and losses, every second was tormenting. The two of them were photographed together in many scenes, and there was zero communication between them. Needless to say, it would be another news tomorrow.
When it came to the most anticipated Best Actress Award, Qian Muchue, who had been very calm, was affected by the emotions of other artists, but at this moment she was actually a little excited. However, except for Gong Chen, no one else could see it.
Qichen Film and Television was the largest sponsor of this award ceremony, and Gong Chen also received an invitation. Normally, he would not come, but this time, because of Qian Muchue, he arrived at the scene before the Magnolia Award for Best Actress was presented. Gong Chen's seat was arranged at the front of the stage, very conspicuous.
In order to transform herself, Liu Xi signed with Qichen Film and Television a year ago. Because Qichen Film and Television has more film and television resources, the movie "Double Face" for which she was nominated this time was produced by Qichen Film and Television. Her position is very close to Gong Chen, so when Gong Chen came over, she noticed him at first sight.
Seeing the company's boss, Liu Xi was more or less excited. She was not young among female artists, and many female artists chose to find a good home while they were still beautiful. A rich and handsome boss like Gong Chen was the ideal partner for many single women.
Unfortunately, although they were in the same company, Liu Xi had hardly ever met Gong Chen in the company. Unexpectedly, he would appear at the Magnolia Awards ceremony today. Liu Xi couldn't help but think more about it. Could it be that the boss came because the artists of Qichen Film and Television would win the award?
Among all the Qichen film and television artists present, she was the only one nominated for the Magnolia Awards, so...
