Chapter 470



Half of her shoulders were exposed, and her long legs were faintly visible. She paused for a moment on the red carpet. People on the internet had already begun to praise the gown that Jiang se was wearing.

At this moment, whether it was Jiang SE’s fans or the fans who had their opinions on her due to the dispute between “demon” and “unexpected incident” and Tao cen, it was difficult for them to find fault with Jiang SE’s dressing.

Jiang se entered the hall with her name card. The people outside the red carpet were streaming in one after another. The bracelet on her wrist had already indicated her seat. Tao cen’s seat was right beside hers.

Tonight, Tao cen was dressed in a dark blue, high-end, custom-made Valentino dress. She looked dazzling. When Jiang se entered, she even smiled and nodded at her. There was not a hint of displeasure on her face.

She even picked up her handbag and stood up. When she saw Xia Chaoqun, she opened her arms and gave him a hug, greeting him, ”

“Chaoqun, long time no see.”

Her manager stood at the side of the corridor, biting her lips as she watched this scene, unable to say a word.

“I don’t think it’s been long.” Xia Chaoqun did not give her an extra warm smile just because he had worked with Tao cen for a long time. His reply was still as cold as ever.

After the two of them greeted each other, Tao cen and Jiang se sat down. Tao cen then turned to Jiang se and said with a smile, ”

Chaoqun’s personality is very impressive. He’s only been managing miss Jiang for a few years and he’s already made you so outstanding. I haven’t congratulated you for entering the finals of ‘demon’. She lowered her head and tidied her dress gracefully. It was as if she had forgotten that Jiang se had interrupted her lunch appointment with censare when she entered the room earlier in the day. It also seemed as if the rumors online about the two competing for ” the lost city ” had no effect on her.

I’ve seen Chesare’s interview. He praised your ‘demon’ for being wonderful and is very optimistic about miss Jiang’s winning this year.

Jiang se smiled and made an intimate gesture with her. “Thank you for your praise. Chessaray was just encouraging me. How can he be compared to miss Tao?”

She did not put up any defenses because of Tao cen’s closeness, nor did she feel smug because of Tao cen’s praise. It was her first time being shortlisted for such an important International Film Festival, but her attitude was neither arrogant nor rash. This made Tao cen feel a little surprised.

The two of them tacitly stopped talking about movies and work. Instead, they started talking about the food, flowers, and air in France. Tao cen had thought that Jiang se had only been popular for a few years.

As her opponent’s influence grew and her position was threatened, she had a better understanding of Jiang se. She was well aware of Jiang SE’s working condition in recent years. Initially, she thought that Jiang se had only been in France for a short period of time and would not understand the local customs as well as she did since she had been abroad for work.

However, after their conversation, she realized that Jiang se was not empty when she talked and laughed. She even had a good understanding of France. Clearly, she had read a lot of information before coming to France.

Her original plan to suppress her aura had failed. Tao cen naturally smiled and changed the topic.

A large number of cameras in the venue recorded the two of them laughing with their heads lowered, but there was no sign of discord.

It was not until Zhao rang and Liu Ye came in one after another that the conversation between the two was interrupted.

The film festival officially started, and the France Film Festival’s appeared on the big screen in front of them. The female host was invited up.

The female host invited for this year’s France Film Festival was Saussure, who had been named the sexiest beauty in the world by the European and American media for several years in a row. As soon as this cold beauty went on stage, she received warm applause from the audience.

She spoke to state the significance of the film festival, and about ten minutes later, the award ceremony officially began.

The judges were invited to the stage one by one, and the screen showed scenes from nearly half a month ago since the film festival began. Excellent film clips were also mixed in, and the first award to be awarded was the photography Award. Every time a film was shortlisted, some people would be disappointed, while others would be ecstatic.

In the meantime,’the demon’ had already made it into the shortlist for Best Screenplay. Zhao rang’s face was filled with obvious joy.

During the film festival,”demon” performed quite well, and many industry insiders had high hopes for it. Zhao rang was beaming with joy. This time,”demon” might win an award, which meant a lot to him. The people around him turned their heads and stared at the film crew.

Jiang se was not in the mood to pay attention to how the others were sizing her up. Instead, she, Zhao rang, Liu Ye, and the others were silently reciting the speech of gratitude.

With “the demon” coming this far, her chances of going on stage to receive the award were undoubtedly much higher. The staff had prepared an acceptance speech for her, and regardless of whether she won the award tonight, she had to memorize it.

After she confirmed the declaration in her heart, the award ceremony was already in the midst of the nomination for Best Director.

When the emcee mentioned this award, Zhao rang could not help but bite his lips. His eyes were filled with anxiety.

The list of shortlisted nominees appeared on the screen. Zhao rang’s name was also on the screen, until the guest presenter said,

we have a talented director as our winner for this year’s best Director award. when the guest who was presenting the award said this, Jiang se noticed that not only Zhao rang, but even director ning zhanping, who was sitting beside Tao cen, was tense. His gaze landed on the guest who had spoken on the stage. Fortunately, this well-known director from Austrians did not drag the time on and gave his answer without hesitation.

“Congratulations to the director of ‘demon’ and the winner, Zhao rang!”

As soon as he finished speaking, thunderous applause rang out from the audience.

When Zhao rang stood up, his face was still filled with disbelief.

He had been looking forward to this moment for a long time. However, when he heard that he had won an award, he was still in a daze. He almost lost his composure as he hugged Liu Ye and Jiang se and strode up the stage.

Following Zhao rang’s win, ning zhanping, who was at the side, looked a little disappointed.

It wasn’t easy for a director to meet an excellent script and actor. Ning zhanping had actually been preparing for “unexpected events” for a long time. It wasn’t easy to talk about a good cooperation with an actress like Tao cen either. The film took several years from shooting to the completion of post-production.

It was a pity that the award had fallen into Zhao rang’s hands. Even if ning zhanping had already mentally prepared himself for this because of the reviews from the film Critics and the media’s predictions, it was still difficult for him to let go.

Beside him, Tao cen comforted him in a low voice. When this famous director saw Zhao rang, who was giving his thanks on stage, he forced out a smile.

“Don’t worry, I still have a chance to start over.”

There was a hint of disappointment in his tone. Even Jiang se, who was sitting next to Tao cen, could tell that something was wrong. She turned to look, and Tao cen turned to look at her as well. When their eyes met, Tao cen smiled, and his eyes glowed.

Ning zhanping wasn’t young anymore, so it wouldn’t be easy for him to get a good opportunity, not to mention that he had to fight his way into the circle of the France Film Festival to win an award. This year was probably the closest year he would get to the award of Best Director at the film festival, so his chances of doing it all over again were very slim. Ning zhanping understood this, and Tao cen should also understand this.

Therefore, ning zhanping’s tone carried a hint of lamentation, but how could Tao cen smile because of his sigh?

Jiang se frowned. At that moment, Zhao rang had finished his speech on stage. He took the award from the guest who was presenting the award, which represented the best Director of the France Film Festival.

“Congratulations.” Tao cen turned around and congratulated Jiang se softly.

There was a hint of joy in her voice, which made Jiang se suspicious.

Tao cen’s behavior was a little off. She seemed to be overjoyed that Zhao rang had won the award. Such a scene was too abnormal. As the lead actress of ” unexpected incident, ” it was impossible for her to be truly happy that Zhao rang had won the award.

In a situation where ning zhanping’s disappointment was so obvious, she should have felt regretful that ning zhanping had missed the ‘Best Director’ award by a hair’s breadth, but she was unusually happy.

“Director Zhao is an excellent director.”

When Tao cen said this, she was smiling. She glanced at Liu Ye, who was standing beside Jiang se, and said softly, ”

Liu Ye is also a rather Outstanding Actor.

Her words attracted Liu Ye’s attention. He turned his head and saw Tao cen smiling at him. The two of them nodded politely at each other and then turned their faces away.

...

At this moment, for some reason, Jiang se had a bad feeling. She turned to look at Tao cen. Tao cen had already started reciting the award speech. She squinted her eyes. Amidst the thunderous applause, she spoke in fluent English. She did not seem to notice Jiang SE’s gaze. Her face shone with a determined glow.

Almost instantly, Jiang se understood the meaning behind Tao cen’s words. She, who had been silently reciting the declaration, stopped. Tao cen opened her eyes. There was a faint smile in her eyes.

“What’s wrong?” She asked in a small voice, ”

“Have you memorized miss Jiang’s declaration?”

She curled her lips. Jiang se took a deep breath and glanced at her. Before she could say anything, Zhao rang had already received his award and left the stage after giving his speech.

next, we should have announced the Best Actress award based on the principle of Ladies First. The emcee’s voice rang out in the venue. but with the equality of men and women today, women from all over the world have become more popular.

The host on the stage mentioned that this year’s French Film Festival was the first to announce the Best Male Lead. When the list of winners was displayed on the screen, the judges read out the shortlisted actors one by one, and everyone who was shortlisted for the competition was on edge.

“” Insurance “Torres. Blanc,”the devil” Liu Ye Wanwan ”

When they heard that ‘the demon’ was nominated for an important award like best Actor again, almost everyone in the studio was in an uproar.

the demon “, which was originally an unknown movie, went from being ignored at the beginning to rising rapidly in popularity in the later stages, all the way to the finals of the theme competition.

Everyone who attended the closing ceremony today had seen “the demon” before. The roles of the male and female lead in the film were also quite wonderful. The male lead, Liu Ye, even played the villain for the first time in order to gain weight for the film.

...

He acted Luo Shen in the play so vividly that it was not surprising that he was shortlisted.

It was just that in recent years, China’s box office performance had been good, but there were not many films that were truly classic. In the past, in important international film festivals such as the French Film Festival, there were not many Chinese films that were nominated for the theme competition, let alone being nominated several times and qualified to compete for the trophy.

In Huaxia, many of the audience members who were watching the live broadcast of the French Film Festival tonight were staring at their screens intently. When they heard that Liu Ye was nominated for “demon “, many of them could not help but cheer.

Liu Ye’s reputation in the country had already reached the top, but he had been unable to go out of the country. Once Liu Ye won the Best Male Lead at the French Film Festival tonight, it would be like he had obtained the key to opening up the European and American markets. He would be able to go further on his acting career!

At this moment, the domestic audience was not only praying for “demon” and “unexpected events “, but also for Liu Ye.

Jiang SE’s heart sank.

Tao cen’s smile made her realize that things were not as simple as they seemed, especially when Liu Ye was also shortlisted for the Best Male Lead Award at the film festival.

the demon “was already very outstanding. With several nominations and Zhao rang’s win, once Liu Ye also received an award, it was very likely that he would miss the Best Female Lead Award in order to balance things out.

It was an International Film event. It was impossible for all the major awards to be won by the same Chinese film, no matter how outstanding or exciting it was!

That was why Tao cen had such a smile on her face earlier. That was why she had sincerely congratulated Zhao rang. The more nominations “demon” received, the lower the chances of the remaining male and female leads winning the award once Zhao rang was awarded.

There were quite a few outstanding films at the film festival this year, but not many were particularly outstanding. Liu Ye’s performance was remarkable. Jiang se had also seen the nominated films during the film festival. Liu Ye had a high chance of winning the award.

Sure enough, the judges announced the winner’s list:

“” The devil “Liu Ye.”

The applause in the venue followed the judges ‘words. Liu Ye stood up, and the cameras in the venue turned in his direction. Even though Jiang se, who was sitting next to him, had already guessed the outcome, she also clapped along with the audience.

In the corridor, mo Anqi was so nervous that she kept biting her fingers. After the Best Male Lead Award was announced, she went to look for Xia Chaoqun. Xia Chaoqun’s brows were already furrowed, which was a rare sight. In order to dispel the uneasiness in his heart, mo Anqi couldn’t help but whisper, ”

“Sister Xia, does Sese have a chance to win an award this year?”

She had been in this industry for many years and could vaguely feel that something was wrong. The France Film Festival was held this year, and it was impossible for all three major awards to be for the same film. This would cause the outside world to question the preferences and favoritism of the film Critics.

Mo Anqi had hoped that Xia Chaoqun would console her, but Xia Chaoqun did not say anything. Her gaze passed through the crowd and landed on Jiang se, who was sitting beside Tao cen.

Zhao rang was still holding the trophy. Liu Ye had already gone on stage, leaving the seat to Jiang SE’s left empty.

Under the light, she had a smile on her face, and her true emotions couldn’t be seen. But she was so smart, could she have already guessed the result?

Such a thought flashed through Xia Chaoqun’s mind. He was considering whether he needed to comfort her after the closing ceremony.
