Longcheng stayed in Beijing for five days. When he left, Shuhui was reluctant to part with him, feeling that he ate out more often than at home, so she made a lot of delicious food for him to take back with him. Longcheng carried a huge amount of stuff, finally experiencing what a sweet burden felt like.
With Longcheng's protection, Chu Yu no longer needs to worry about Chu Chu's safety in Gangcheng. If Longcheng can't even do this, he doesn't deserve to be Chu Chu's boyfriend.
The new millennium arrived quietly amidst people's discussions. Last year, Chu Chu and Zuo Ran's kung fu film had completed post-production and was ready for simultaneous release at home and abroad. The film was submitted for the Oscars. At the beginning of the year, before the film was even released, Hua Lai had been paying close attention to the Oscar results.
The film has been nominated for multiple categories and has a good chance of winning a major award.
Chu Chu and Zuo Ran were both invited to the awards ceremony. Chu Yu watched Zhong Buyi and Chu Chu through the live television broadcast and felt proud of her sister from the bottom of her heart.
Chu Chu wore a red low-cut short dress, her black wavy hair cascading down her back, exuding a bright and dazzling beauty. With her fair skin, red lips, and black hair, she resembled a mysterious oriental black pearl, radiating a unique beauty.
Chu Yu stared blankly at Chu Chu on the TV. When she first transmigrated, Chu Chu was still an undeveloped little girl. She felt that something was wrong with this girl, as she didn't have any female characteristics. Fearing that there was something wrong with her body, she asked Deng Fangping to give her some supplements.
Later, Chu Chu's eyes were cured, but her academic performance remained poor, at least compared to her two older sisters, she was not outstanding.
Chu Yu thought it didn't matter if her grades weren't good, but she needed to have a skill to support herself. After she started her entertainment company, she trained Chu Chu to make movies. Later, Chu Chu applied to the film academy, but she didn't pay much attention to her studies. She spent a lot of time on film sets, and her acting skills were honed to perfection.
Not everyone can make a living in the entertainment industry, but Chu Chu seems to be born for it. She is never saddened by negative reports, and she never fails to understand a character. She becomes stronger when faced with strong opponents, and she performs even better when she encounters a good director. Even in Hong Kong, a place surrounded by superstars, she can still shine.
Chu Yu was genuinely proud of her younger sister.
The Oscars ceremony had reached its climax, and the host went on stage to announce the most important nominee, Best Actress. Chu Chu was nominated in this category, and the camera panned across her and several other actresses. Just as everyone was wondering who would win, the host, after a moment of suspense, announced:
"This year's Oscar winner for Best Actress, 'The Grandmaster'!"
Chu Chu stood up, covering her mouth and looking at the stage in disbelief. Zhong Buyi stood up to congratulate her. She hugged Zhong Buyi, then hugged Zuo Ran, and then, guided by the host, walked onto the stage to receive the award.
With tears in her eyes, Chu Chu calmed herself down before speaking:
“I was very surprised. Although I had dreamed of this award for a long time, I still found it hard to believe when the day finally came. I used to be just an ordinary little girl. Later, I became an actress, and this path was not easy. People always told me that my dream was impossible to achieve and that it was difficult for Chinese actors to win an Oscar. I was frustrated and sad, but I told myself that what others said did not matter. What mattered was my attitude towards my dream. Now, I can finally say to those who like me and support me, I did it! I really did it!”
The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause. After Hua Lai entered Hollywood, she filmed several international blockbusters, and Chu Chu appeared in each of them, gaining a certain degree of fame abroad.
She calmed herself down and said with a smile:
"I want to thank my family, especially my sister Chu Yu, who has given me so much help. Without her, I wouldn't be where I am today. I also want to thank my loved one for standing here with me to share this award. I also want to thank the director and all the behind-the-scenes staff. This award belongs to everyone who has worked hard for it, and I am proud of you all!"
Chu Chu's English thank-you speech was passionate and inspiring, moving many audience members. After all, the thank-you speeches of successful people are always inspiring.
The applause was continuous, and both Zuo Ran and Zhong Buyi had proud expressions on their faces.
Chu Yu watched the live stream video, silently wiping away her tears. Dai Donglin smiled and said:
"When we first started dating, Chu Chu was just a little girl. She looked like a tomboy back then. Who would have thought she'd be where she is today?"
Chu Yu also sighed, "Time flies so fast."
Zhou Yun laughed and said, "Isn't it fast? When you two first started dating, I thought this guy was too picky and would end up alone. Do you think anyone in the world could meet his criteria for a partner? Who knew he would actually find one!"
Chu Yu looked at Dai Donglin.
Time hasn't left this man with wrinkles and blemishes; instead, it has given him more composure and confidence than before. He already holds a high position, and the aura of a superior is fully displayed in him. Sometimes, even an unintentional glance exudes an air of authority.
People are always afraid of Dai Donglin, feeling that he is unapproachable, cold and expressionless, and that a single sentence from him can scare people to death.
But he was always gentle with her, and even after many years of marriage, his eyes still shone with light when he looked at her.
Dai Donglin and Chu Yu intertwined their fingers, and the warmth emanating from his palm gradually warmed Chu Yu's heart. Chu Yu had never imagined that she would meet someone to walk alongside her in this world and spend her life with him.
Chu Yu organized a live TV broadcast because Chu Chu and Zuo Ran were both shortlisted. Aunt Dai and Zuo Guangming came to their house to watch the video with them.
Zuo Guangming has been transferred to Beijing and now holds a very high position, so high that Chu Yu often sees him on television. With one, two, or three family members frequently appearing on television, Chu Yu's pressure is considerable. Fortunately, she always knows how to lighten the mood, and even though her family consists of important figures, everyone gets along easily.
