Chapter 164 My Sister Has Made It Great
Gradually, the venue filled up with people.
When the time came, the host appeared on time and gave a lively opening speech.
The awards presented so far are all basic ones.
First, they watched some videos of the shortlisted works, and then two artists who were familiar with each other but also strangers to each other awkwardly laughed and announced the final winner in a slightly stiff manner.
"Ha~"
Song Shiwei yawned out of boredom.
It's boring, but we should respect it.
Song Shiwei forced herself to look at the stage, pretending to be happy, and even clapping along.
There was nothing he could do; that photographer seemed to adore her, and his camera kept panning to her!
However, people tend to get sleepy when they are bored.
Song Shiwei didn't want to embarrass herself in front of the camera, so she helplessly played with Chi Yanzhou's fingers.
This scene was captured on camera; Chi Yanzhou looked at Song Shiwei with doting eyes, his tenderness almost overwhelming.
The viewers in the live stream immediately went wild.
[Ahhhhh, it's so sweet it's killing me! It's so sweet it's killing me!]
At that moment, I saw the embodiment of love.
[Brother Zhou, your eyes are so incredibly gentle!]
[This young couple is so sweet! I declare them the sweetest couple ever!]
With the gala halfway through, the awards ceremony in the second half is the most important part and the segment that everyone is most looking forward to.
Finally, it was time for the awards ceremony for this year's Best Picture.
As usual, the shortlisted works were announced first.
As expected, "Novoland: The Moon" was successfully nominated, and the camera panned across the main cast and crew, especially lingering on Director Dong's face.
Director Dong crossed his arms, looking very relaxed.
With the suspense deliberately maintained by the guest host, the winner of the Best Picture was finally announced—
"The Moon Over the Nine Provinces!"
A cheer erupted from the audience. Song Shiwei felt as if she had been electrocuted, clapping as she looked at Director Dong, who was standing up to accept the award.
She never doubted that "Novoland: The Moon" would win an award.
Although the other shortlisted works were also very good, none of them could compare to "Novoland: The Moon".
Director Dong and his creative team have truly presented everyone with a perfect work.
Even though I was convinced it would win an award, I was still very excited when I actually heard it.
They were genuinely happy for Director Dong.
Director Dong is not tall, but he stood on the stage holding the trophy and had a rather cute smile.
"This award doesn't belong to me alone; it belongs to everyone on the 'Novoland: The Moon' team. It is through everyone's joint efforts that we have achieved what we have today."
I'm very happy that the film is well-received. This work was an idea I had when I first entered the industry, and it took me so many years to finally have the opportunity to polish it into a finished product.
I am very grateful to everyone on the team; you have given my dreams beautiful colors.
Director Dong bowed deeply, sincerely thanking everyone for realizing his dream from over twenty years ago.
"Director Dong is amazing!" Song Shiwei couldn't help but exclaim.
There are always people who persist in their original dreams even on a path strewn with thorns.
Next came the grand finale of the awards ceremony—
The winners of the Best Actress and Best Actor awards were announced.
First, the Best Actress award.
Five female artists were nominated, and Song Shiwei was among them, thanks to her outstanding performance in "Novoland: The Moon".
When the video featuring Song Shiwei as the Empress Dowager appeared, the camera also panned to her in the audience.
Song Shiwei was playing a finger game of pinky tug-of-war with Chi Yanzhou when she suddenly heard her own name called and her eyes widened in surprise.
"I'm in it?!"
Chi Yanzhou hooked her hand in his palm and said, "You acted very well. The audience has discerning eyes."
The guests on stage held their scripts, deliberately maintaining an air of mystery and drawing out their words, refusing to announce the final result.
Song Shiwei suddenly felt a little nervous. She felt that as a newcomer, she didn't have much of a chance, but she still couldn't help but have expectations.
She sensed that Chi Yanzhou was also somewhat excited.
Because the hand holding hers was slightly firm, and the palm was sweaty.
"The winner of this year's Golden Horse Award for Best Actress is—"
The scene was quiet as everyone awaited the revelation of the final mystery.
Congratulations to Song Shiwei for winning the Best Actress award for her role in "Novoland: The Moon"!
The fans at the scene immediately stood up excitedly, screaming and chanting Song Shiwei's name.
Song Shiwei's first reaction was to go see Chi Yanzhou.
She realized it was all real only after looking into the other person's eyes!
Chi Yanzhou happily hugged Song Shiwei and whispered words of encouragement in her ear.
"You deserve this award. Believe in yourself and go accept it, my Best Actress."
Song Shiwei drew strength from Chi Yanzhou's words and stood up to go on stage to accept the award.
The lights and camera followed this beautiful figure.
Holding the trophy, Song Shiwei quietly looked at the audience, her eyes seeming to hold a galaxy within them.
"I was surprised and excited."
I didn't have high expectations, but I'm still very happy to receive this award.
I am grateful for Director Dong's recognition and the support of the "Novoland: The Moon" team, which has given me this opportunity today.
Of course, I also want to thank my husband, Chi Yanzhou.
He has always silently supported me, telling me that I deserve it!
It's rare to see Song Shiwei so serious in front of the camera.
Chi Yanzhou, sitting below the stage, gazed intently at his precious child, his serious expression unable to contain anyone else.
Song Shiwei finally smiled and transformed back into her crazy self, confidently looking at the audience below the stage.
"Everyone knows that I became famous by acting crazy, but receiving this award today lets me tell you that this crazy old woman has plenty of talent!"
Don't try to manipulate me online anymore, saying I'm incompetent and only know how to act crazy. I'll say it again—
"I refuse to suffer internal strife; I deserve to be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple!"
"Waaaaaaaahhhhhh!"
Laughter and screams erupted from the audience; Song Shiwei was the coolest queen of the night!
The host did not ask Song Shiwei to leave the stage, but instead allowed her to announce the Best Actor award.
Among the nominated actors, Chi Yen-chou was unsurprisingly nominated.
Song Shiwei opened her script, raised an eyebrow, smiled at the audience, and announced into the microphone.
First of all, congratulations to the nominated actors; your talent is beyond doubt.
However, I'm sorry to say that we swept the Best Actor award at this year's Golden Horse Awards.
Congratulations to Chi Yanzhou on winning this year's Best Actor award!
"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!"
The atmosphere at the scene reached another climax.
Chi Yanzhou looked at the mischievous Song Shiwei with doting eyes, then stood up and went on stage to accept the award.
A perfect couple stood on the stage, and everything around them paled in comparison.
After accepting the trophy, Chi Yanzhou held Song Shiwei's hand with his other hand.
"I won't mince words. My wife is the head of the household, and she has already expressed her gratitude on behalf of the family."
My abilities speak for themselves, and there's no need for anyone to doubt them; after all, this isn't the first time I've won this award.
The audience burst into laughter; they were used to Chi Yanzhou's narcissism.
There's nothing we can do; they really do have the resources.
Chi Yanzhou turned around, not looking at the audience or the camera, but looking intently at Song Shiwei.
"My greatest achievement is marrying my wife; this is the most prestigious award I've ever received."
Because of her, my life has meaning.
I am very grateful for her appearance, which made my life complete. I will carry this honor with me and continue to move forward.
This is my wife, and also a talented actress—Song Shiwei!
Song Shiwei is not his appendage; she is an independent and talented actress!
The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause, and many fans couldn't help but shed tears for this beautiful love story.
Chi Yanzhou was excited, his eyes sparkling like stars, and his chest burning.
Song Shiwei was equally excited; in Chi Yanzhou's eyes, she could always see a heart full of love.
Only in Chi Yanzhou's eyes could she feel her own heart beating.
She stepped forward, and the two of them, under the spotlight, on a glittering stage, amidst a cacophony of voices, held the trophy and kissed each other's deity.
My heart will always beat for you.
My love for you will always burn brightly.
As the stars flow and shine brightly, we journey towards eternity with love in the long river of time.
-The End-
