Chapter 264 Movie Chapter Award
Jiang Mubai knew that he was a little drunk from joy, so he asked someone to take the director back to his room to rest.
Three days later, everyone left reluctantly and returned to work, except Jiang Mubai who stayed in Sanya with Wu You.
Before leaving, she even went out to see Director Zhang off, "Relax here for a while. We will go back and prepare for the film festival. You just wait here for our good news."
"Okay, Director, please be safe on the road."
After seeing them off, Jiang Mubai took Manman to Sanya to let her relax. After all, she was the one who helped him deal with work matters.
When Cheng Yunchuan heard that their celebration party was over, he immediately brought his studio staff here for vacation, staying in the same hotel as Jiang Mubai. From then on, all the staff on both sides knew about their relationship.
The two of them were lying on beach chairs enjoying the sea breeze. Fortunately, the weather was not so hot.
"Why do you suddenly want to bring your employees here for vacation? Aren't you afraid that our relationship will be exposed?"
"You've been busy with the movie these past few months, so I haven't had the chance to spend some time with you. The last time we had dinner together was at the preview, but it was with the director and other people, not just the two of us."
"They are from my studio and I trust them very much. Before they came, I specifically told them to promise not to tell anyone about our relationship."
After staying in Sanya for another week, the two groups left in batches. Jiang Mubai was afraid that if they left together, they would be noticed by the paparazzi.
After Jiang Mubai came back, her resources did improve a lot, and many big brands invited her to be their spokesperson, including but not limited to resources in the fields of cosmetics, jewelry, and clothing.
So after she came back, she immediately started shooting commercials. Of course, many scripts were also sent to her, but she hasn't had time to read them yet.
Her advertisements and posters are all over the screens in squares and subways. There has been no star more popular than her in the first half of this year, and her popularity is growing.
One day at the end of October, Jiang Mubai received a text message from Director Zhang, saying that their film had been shortlisted for the Golden Rabbit Awards and had now entered the final evaluation stage. At that time, their entire crew would go to participate in the film festival.
Three days before the film festival started, their film had been nominated for many awards. The director was nominated for Best Director, as well as Best Screenwriter for Mr. Guangxuan and Best Actor for Mr. Wu Zhen. Among them, the most popular was Jiang Mubai, who was nominated for Best Newcomer and Best Actress, which is the legendary nomination for Best Actress.
When the announcement was made, the WeChat group became lively again. The last time it was so lively was when they went to Sanya to hold a celebration party.
The film festival was in full swing, and Jiang Mubai walked the red carpet with the crew. Her white gauze dress made her look otherworldly, and all major media outlets rushed to report her photos at the film festival.
The most watched and anticipated event of the night was who would win the Best Actor and Best Actress awards. When the Best Newcomer Award was presented, Jiang Mubai won. She was very happy, but also a little sad because she was aiming for the Best Actress award.
After winning one award, it would be difficult for the film judges to give her another award. When she came down from the stage to receive the award, Director Zhang came over to comfort her personally.
Jiang Mubai didn't want to show it too obviously. After all, there were so many people watching at the scene and many people were watching on TV, so she suppressed her emotions.
The order of awarding the awards is usually to announce the Best Actress Award first and then the Best Actor Award. However, this year's film festival was different in that the Best Actor Award was presented first. This small change attracted the attention of the people on the scene and the audience on the screen, and they gradually had some guesses in their hearts.
Teacher Guangxuan also noticed this change, so he whispered to Jiang Mubai in his seat, "Don't lose heart! As long as it hasn't been revealed, everything is possible. I think you have great hope."
The Best Actor award went to Mr. Wu Zhen, who took the stage to give his acceptance speech, "I actually didn't want to take this film at first, but Director Zhang insisted on letting me read the script and said it wouldn't be too late to refuse after seeing how I felt. I'm very glad that he didn't reject me outright. Our crew received a lot of applause and blessings at this year's film festival, and I hope to hear everyone's applause and blessings again in the future."
There was warm applause and cheers.
After saying this, the camera turned to Jiang Mubai very sensibly, and everyone knew that Wu Zhen was talking about the Best Actress award.
The camera was already facing several Best Actress candidates. Jiang Mubai glanced at the camera and then lowered her head again. With her eyes lowered, it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Jiang Mubai was very excited at the moment. She didn't know why she suddenly didn't dare to look at herself on the big screen.
After her rebirth and re-entry into the industry, she seemed not as comfortable as before. She always compared her present self with her past self and always felt that she had slacked off in her job as an actor. At this awards ceremony, she was afraid that she would not win the Best Actress award and would not be recognized by others.
After all, she had so many honors before her rebirth. It’s impossible that she only has one rookie award in this life, right?
Jiang Mubai was still thinking about all sorts of things and didn't hear the presenter finish reading out her name. When Wu Zhen congratulated her, Jiang Mubai finally realized what had happened.
She quickly looked up at the big screen, which was playing a clip of her in the movie, and realized that she had won the award. Her expression of disbelief was recorded by the camera and broadcast on the big screen. Everyone was amused by her shocked expression.
She came to the stage and received the trophy with a blank mind. Those movements seemed to be guided by muscle memory, as if her previous life self was helping her now.
"I have been filming TV series before, and I thought that I would continue to be an actor like this. I didn't expect to be so lucky to have the opportunity to be involved in movies. I am very grateful to everyone in the crew for their help. Without them, I would not be who I am today. Thank you! I am also very grateful to the fans who have always supported me and accompanied me. Finally, I actually want to thank myself. After receiving this award, I suddenly feel that I am not confused at all. Now my heart is full of determination and it seems that I have found my direction."
Jiang Mubai's acceptance speech came from the bottom of her heart. She said this to motivate herself not to be influenced by her past life. Fortunately, today she gave herself a satisfactory explanation.
The biggest winner of this film festival has to be their crew, and the biggest winner in this crew is none other than Jiang Mubai.
Cheng Yunchuan did not come to the scene this time. When the name of the Best Actress was announced, he immediately sent a congratulatory text message to Jiang Mubai. Knowing that she didn't have time to read these things, he didn't keep waiting for her reply on the phone.
After the award ceremony there was a dinner, and Jiang Mubai couldn't leave directly.
