Chapter 151: Fair and Just Magnolia Award
The host's words on the stage interrupted Liu Xi's wandering thoughts. It happened that the Magnolia Award for Best Actress had just been presented, and the big screen was showing the four nominated films and TV shows.
Afterwards, the images of the five candidates on the scene appeared on the big screen. Looking at Qian Muchue's sparkling eyes on the screen, Gong Chen's mouth curled up slightly, and she could see her excitement at a glance.
Fortunately, today will not disappoint her. In fact, Gong Chen knew the result of the Magnolia Award two days ago. At that time, the staff of the jury had implicitly asked Cheng Xu about Gong Chen's thoughts. After all, artists from Qichen Film and Television were also shortlisted this time.
Of course, in terms of strength, Qian Muchue is well-deserved as the best actress. Although Qian Muchue's previous scandal has been reversed, some of her remarks are quite controversial. It is not impossible to pass her over for this reason.
The staff came to inquire about this issue because Wei Lai and Zhao Wan had put in the effort. If the biggest sponsor had no intention of interfering with the jury's intention to promote his own family, then he could have pushed Zhao Wan hard.
Cheng Xu saw through the trick at a glance and reported it to Gong Chen. Finally, Gong Chen called the person in charge of the Magnolia Awards very seriously, hoping that the jury would be fair and just this time, and hinted that if anyone abused their power for personal gain, there would be no need to hold the Magnolia Awards in the future.
The person in charge of the Magnolia Awards was stunned by this phone call. It is normal for such awards to occasionally have tricks, but this time the big boss called in person, which means someone must have been caught. The person in charge dare not take it lightly and must ensure that every award is fair and just.
After the results came out, the person in charge was afraid that the boss would be dissatisfied, so he handed the final list of winners to Gong Chen two days ago. Qian Muchue's name was on it. Gong Chen was very satisfied. Seeing that the boss did not raise any other objections, the person in charge of the Golden Magnolia Award was relieved.
Because of Gong Chen's intervention, this year's Magnolia Awards can be regarded as the fairest and most just one in history.
Based on Gong Chen's understanding of Qian Muchue, she probably wouldn't want to know the result in advance, so he didn't mention this matter in front of her.
Because "The Fox with Nine Tailed" has two female protagonists, plus the heroines nominated from three other films, the images of five female artists appeared on the big screen at the same time. Liu Xi's appearance can be said to be amazing in the circle, but on the screen, the most outstanding one is Qian Muchue.
"The list is in my hand now. We will announce who will win the award soon." Dou Ying, winner of the Best Actress Award at the last Magnolia Awards, said with a smile, holding the envelope in her hand.
"I'm very excited now. Who is it? Teacher Dou, please reveal it quickly." The host continued with a smile.
"Wow, the winner of this year's Magnolia Award for Best Actress is..." Dou Ying opened the envelope, took a look at the name, acted surprised, and paused deliberately at the crucial moment.
Qian Muchue's emotions were aroused. Zhao Wan next to her was so nervous that she held her breath. Liu Xi was also full of anticipation at this moment. The other two candidates were also very nervous.
"She is Qian Muchue, the actress who played Qingyan in 'Nine-Tailed Fox'. Congratulations." Dou Ying raised his voice when he mentioned Qian Muchue's name.
As soon as Dou Ying finished speaking, the images of the other four female artists on the big screen disappeared, leaving only Qian Muchue. The two most disappointed people at this moment must be Zhao Wan and Liu Xi.
Zhao Wan attached too much importance to this award. When she heard the name was Qian Muchue, the expression on her face instantly changed. As for Liu Xi, if Gong Chen had not come today, she might not have been so disappointed. The gap from heaven to earth was too big. Fortunately, she was experienced and could still maintain a beautiful smile even in such a situation.
The other two candidates knew that they were just runners-up, so they didn't feel disappointed when they saw the outcome.
Feng Qing, who was sitting on the other side of Qian Muchue, was very happy. He felt that the award was given fairly and congratulated Qian Muchue with a smile. Zhao Wan, who was unwilling to accept the award, reacted and put on an official smile, congratulating Qian Muchue in front of the camera.
Qian Muchue thanked everyone for their congratulations with a smile.
"Now please welcome our best actress Qian Muchue to the stage." said the host.
Qian Muchue walked towards the stage in high heels. The long dress by Oriental Verve set off her figure very well, and it sparkled under the lights.
Standing on the stage, the award presenter Dou Ying presented the Magnolia Award trophy to Qian Muchue, hugged her and congratulated her, then he and the host stepped down, leaving the stage temporarily to Qian Muchue.
The people in the audience saw this young girl standing on the stage with a smile on her face, not at all nervous or awkward, and acting very gracefully.
Qian Muchue held the trophy and looked at the people in the audience. The first person she saw was Gong Chen. Seeing him looking at her with burning eyes, Qian Muchue couldn't help but smile even more happily.
"I'm very happy to receive this award. Thank you all for your recognition of me. I'm also very grateful to my fans who have always supported me and my family who have been with me these days. I hope to have better works in the future and meet you all. Thank you." Qian Muchue said with a smile while holding the trophy.
Gong Chen looked at the confident and beautiful girl on the stage. Seeing her smiling happily, he felt very happy too.
After the Magnolia Awards ceremony, the crew of "Nine-Tailed Fox" won two awards in total, the Best Director Award and the Best Actress Award, and can be regarded as the biggest winner of the night.
There was a celebratory party afterwards. Qian Muchue and Feng Qing both won awards, so it was difficult for them not to attend. Although Zhao Wan was in a bad mood, she did not go back. There were many directors and well-known actors present, and they were all good resources for her.
At the party, many people approached Qian Muchue and Feng Qing. In the eyes of others, they were also good resources. Faced with the toasts from strangers, Qian Muchue awkwardly but politely refused.
While entertaining people who came over to say hello, Gong Chen was also paying attention to Qian Muchue's condition not far away. He saw that she was holding a glass of red wine but didn't drink a single sip. Good, she remembered his words.
"Hello, Mr. Gong, I'm Liu Xi, an artist under Qichen Film and Television. I didn't expect to meet my boss here. It's such an honor." Liu Xi said with a beautiful smile and humorous words.
She knew her beauty and she had finally met Gong Chen, so she didn't want to miss it. She had to give it a try if she had the chance. So, although she missed the award, Liu Xi did not leave, but attended the celebration party.
