Chapter 81 – Save some face for Mr. Song.

Song Yunran thought very simply, he is purely sending a blessing.

So that Qin Ke knows, even if the end has been predetermined, Dad will always be your strongest backing.

He had always said what he thought of, but he didn’t know that even before he put down the microphone, the live screen had already exploded.

[There’s no need to be so blatant about your favoritism, ha.]

[I’m watching the live stream alone and seeing the little couple show their love, this is what exactly is human suffering.]

[A few more compliments, we drugged chickens love to hear this.]

The gossip forum, also because of his words, began to discuss seriously, whether Qin Ke can suddenly become the biggest winner tonight.

This kind of self-imposed stomping topic soon became the best place for people from all walks of life to chase each other.

The first of these is the one that says that Song Yunran is mindlessly praising, another says that “Hong Bai Xi Xi” is not self-sufficient, and another says that Song Yunran has lost his mind because of love.

The last statement was quickly praised by CP fans as a hot comment, forcing the person who spoke in the comments to fume with rage: [Are you sick? I called Song Yunran a retard and you guys can still get high?]

When the scene was in chaos, a rational statement finally appeared on the front page.

[According to the critics’ combined opinion, everyone is very optimistic about Qin Ke and Zhou Qingyan among the five finalists.]

[They are indeed the two people who have the most accurate grasp of character accomplishment in the shortlist.]

[But “Hong Bai Xi Xi” is a comedy film, and the screenwriter is good at playing with cold humor, which is not appealing to the judges who like to pursue depth.]

[In conclusion, Zhou Qingyan has a better chance of winning the award for his realistic work.]

This reasonable argument was supported by most people.

The people who are able to be shortlisted for the film award are naturally very skilled in acting. But in the end, to get the trophy, you can’t just rely on the actors’ own efforts, the theme, editing, and even the jury’s preference, will all become elements that affect the result.

Qin Ke’s first debut film was able to make 3 billion at the box office, which is already a success at the level of Heavenly Purple Star, even if it doesn’t win the Best Actor this time, it will still be an honor to lose.

When the discussion looked towards the direction of reason, the owner suddenly turned his hand: [We ordinary audience understand this point, Song Yunran as a person in the circle will certainly understand it better. So don’t take his words so seriously, it’s just that people have a lover’s eye that makes a difference.]

Netizens: “……”

A lot of padding, but you’re getting high on candy!

The way you get high on dizzy powder is really unpredictable.

Inside the Great Theatre of Yan City, Song Yunran brought the two older children to their seats.

He breathed a sigh of relief, this difficult escort trip is finally over. Really hate to think back, when entering the theater just now, these two people almost tripped on the stairs a heel.

After exchanging pleasantries with the people around, Song Yunran went back to the audience and sent a message to Qin Ke: [Done!]

Qin Ke: [Well, I saw the live broadcast, thanks.]

Song Yunran: “?”

That’s it? Don’t you think you should praise your Dad who has saved the day many times?

When he was sulking, Qin Ke’s next message popped up on the screen: [As expected of President Xiao Song, no tricky situation is too difficult for you.]

Song Yunran stared at the screen, and after a moment, the corners of his mouth raised uncontrollably: [Sit in your car properly, don’t kiss my ass out there!]

He put away his phone with satisfaction, and when he turned his head, he met He Ziyou’s gaze that wanted to say something but couldn’t.

Song Yunran said warily: “…… what is it?”

He Ziyou took a deep breath before saying, “You look like the kind of puppy who completed his task successfully and then was praised by his master.”

“…… Roll!” Song Yunran said angrily, “Who are you calling a dog, I’m his Dad.”

“If you say so.”

He Ziyou shrugged his shoulders and expressed some disdain with his body language.

Song Yunran wanted to say something else, and the roof lights dimmed at that point.

With the magnificent orchestral music, the curtain of the splendid stage slowly opened.

Song Yunran attended this award ceremony in his last life, and had a vague impression of the song and dance program.

He didn’t pay much attention to what was being performed on stage, and from time to time, he turned his gaze to the guest seats of the cast, and after ten minutes, he finally saw Qin Ke’s figure, appearing in the vacant seat of “Hong Bai Xi Xi”.

Finally caught up.

Song Yunran breathed a sigh of relief and stared at the slim and upright back in the distance for a while before slowly withdrawing his gaze and focusing on the award ceremony.

A few more moments later, the two guests of honor walked on stage and announced, “It’s time to present this year’s Best Newcomer Award.”

The big screen played the performance clips of the finalists one by one.

When it was the turn of “Hong Bai Xi Xi”, the clip given by the organizer was the episode of Qin Ke in the movie where his mind crashed due to a series of unexpected mistakes.

Even though they had seen it once before, the audience still let out a loud laugh when they saw it.

After the VCR finished, several cameras immediately pointed at the five candidates.

Qin Ke lifted his eyes indifferently, his face was not at all tired from the journey, but his lips were slightly curved as he looked towards the camera, and his eyes were calm with certainty.

Clearly it is the same handsome face, but the temperament is completely opposite to that in the movie.

The very short interval before and after the comparison, let He Ziyou freeze for a moment, and sighed quietly: “Such a comparison, he is really good at acting. If I hadn’t witnessed it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed Qin Ke could perform such a money-hungry and funny role.”

“That’s how good he is.”

Song Yunran replied with pride, thinking to himself that this was not even the best.

Only he and Qin Ke knew that Qin Ke had already performed this role twice, and he was even able to give a richer understanding than before, when it was obviously the exact same plot and lines.

It is not difficult to play a role well.

What is difficult is to perform it a second time and still achieve a more exquisite breakthrough with an extremely good premise.

After leaving enough time for suspense, the two guests opened the envelope containing the results of the evaluation together.

Although he already knew the answer, Song Yunran couldn’t help but feel nervous.

He opened his eyes wide and leaned forward slightly, not wanting to miss any of the details of what was to come.

The female guest of honor was looking down the stage and announced with a smile, “Let’s congratulate …… Qin Ke.”

Thunderous applause instantly resounded throughout the room.

Under the gaze of countless eyes, Qin Ke stood up and buttoned his suit, standing in the center of the spotlight and receiving his second best newcomer award.

Song Yun Ran clapped his palms red, but He Zi You couldn’t stand it and reminded him that he could probably stop before he put his hands down and listened to Qin Ke’s acceptance speech together with everyone else.

The big screen projected Qin Ke’s handsome face clearly, he smiled, raised the microphone stand a little higher, and delivered his acceptance speech in a soft voice. Just as in his previous life, he thanked the jury, the cast and crew, and every audience who had supported the film.

Then, he paused for two seconds, and his eyes slowly wandered in between the guest seats……

As if guessing the target Qin Ke was looking for, the live broadcast guide also directed the camera at the guest seats at this time, but only found the seat with Song Yunran’s name on it empty.

The pop-ups were collectively in a state of confusion.

[…… Where is the person ?????]

[Laughing to death, how big should be the psychological shadow to Qin Ke, I won the award, but the boss does not care and even left the stage early.

In the field, Song Yunran slapped his head: “Oh no, I forgot to remind him that I switched to the audience!”

How could he make such a mistake!

He regretted so much that he wanted to stand up and wave his hand at the stage.

In the nick of time, a loud and clear voice rang out in the theater: “Look here! Your President Xiao Song is here!”

The audience member, who had recognized Song Yunran at some point, danced and pointed to the row in front of him.

It must be said that this enthusiastic audience member had quite a loud voice.

In a flash, not only Qin Ke on stage, but also the artists and industry professionals in the guest seats, all turned their heads in unison.

Song Yunran was caught off guard and saw his own horrified expression on the big screen.

He had no idea when he had revealed his identity and wanted to turn his head to look at the enthusiastic viewer who had exposed him, but was afraid that doing so would make his faintheartedness too obvious.

“Thank you to this audience.”

Qin Ke smiled a little, his eyes crossed the heavy crowd and looked at the blurred figure among the dimly lit audience, “Well, to win the award this time, I have to thank Mr. Song even more solemnly, thank you for the blessing in disguise that allowed me to stand here today.”

The guest of honor was a 5G surfer, and he chortled, “Hey, but I think the other artists in your company are calling him President Xiao Song.”

Qin Ke raised his eyebrows, “Don’t say that, leave some face for our Mr. Song.”

Song Yunran was numb.

He Ziyou was laughing like a maniac next to him.

Fortunately, Qin Ke still has his wits about him and bowed down at this point.

Otherwise, tens of thousands of netizens would probably find that Song Yunran, who had previously been using harsh language on the red carpet, had already clenched his fists and was furious at the air.

Because of this accident, Song Yunran did not come back to his senses for a long time.

He felt that he was teased by Qin Ke, and that too in front of a large crowd.

Song Yunran was shocked at the thought of this.

This is too bold, not afraid that someone will find out something!

The best newcomer award alone made Qin Ke so reckless, if it had been replaced by the best actor ……

Song Yunran’s nerves trembled and suddenly began to panic.

He stared at the stage apprehensively, in the midst of the anxiety of the day, he finally ushered into one of the most significant awards of the night.

He could barely breathe as he watched two more guests of honor slowly come on stage.

He Ziyou looked at him: “…… there’s something I don’t know whether to say or not to say.”

Song Yunran: “Ah?”

“He won’t be able to become a film emperor tonight.” He Ziyou said, “Don’t be nervous like this, face reality and just relax, okay?”

Considering that there were already people around who recognized him, Song Yunran had to come over and whisper, “I hope he doesn’t win the award now.”

He Ziyou: “What??”

Song Yunran got nervous and anxious: “Don’t you know that there is a good tradition in the acting world of coming out on the spot when you receive an award? I’m not ready yet!”

“……”

He Ziyou was silent for a moment and spoke with difficulty, “I’m the one who’s shallow.”

Song Yunran nodded approvingly, thinking that he should have understood long ago that Qin Ke was a silly love brain.

Maybe on his way to the theater, he was moved by his blessing on the red carpet to leave his IQ at home, and vowed directly with tears that if he got the award tonight, he would have to come out of the closet.

As soon as he thought of this, Song Yunran could not breathe.

He completely lost the expression management that a boss should have, and stared anxiously at the movements of the guest’s hand, his mind already thinking about what position would be more decent for him to be in in the hot seat tonight in case the plot changed.

However, when the guest read out the three words “Zhou Qingyan” and in the next second……

A unprecedented loss swept through all his thoughts.

Song Yunran’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and his eyes subconsciously searched the crowd for Qin Ke’s figure.

He saw Qin Ke smiling and applauding for the biggest winner of the night, and a burst of aggravation spread up deep inside his heart, making the ends of his eyes droop down.

Yes, other people don’t know how well Qin Ke performed when he challenged the same role twice.

So fate didn’t favor him because of this.

After realizing this, Song Yun Ran slowly lowered his head, avoiding He Zi You’s sizing eyes, and rubbed the tip of his sore nose with the back of his hand.

The phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

Song Yunran clicked on WeChat and saw a message from Qin Ke a few seconds ago in the dialog box: [Don’t be sad.]

“……”

Please tell me which of your eyes saw me sad, Song Yunran said to himself, do you have eyes on the back of your head?

He pursed the corners of his mouth and replied: [So depressed, it turned out that my blessing did not work.]

The phone vibrated again.

The next message then followed.

Qin Ke: [Who said that. Maybe it’s just going to brew for one more year and then wait until next year’s day to take effect?

Next year?

Song Yunran thought for a moment, thinking that it wasn’t too far away.

He resumed and typed: [Then make an appointment, for next year!]

Then he added another instruction, [But if you want to come out of the closet, you still have to tell me in advance, ha.]

Qin Ke: […………?]

The author has something to say:
President Xiao Song: At that time I was very worried, and so afraid that he was talking nonsense!
