Chapter 228
Everyone's shock was written all over their faces.
"What's going on? Who is this?"
"Where's Old Han? Isn't this Old Han's seat?"
"The first row is occupied by the big shots. Who is this young woman? Does she know where she's sitting?"
"Elder Han has always been a kind person and doesn't care about reputation, but that doesn't mean that some young people can rely on this to directly take his position, right?"
"Are you crazy about fame?"
Discussions broke out all around and Wen Yongwei heard everything.
Everyone was curious as to why such a thing would happen. Why had Old Han not come when his seat was taken by others?
Wen Yongwei had indeed been very popular during the talent show, but in the entire industry, it was not an exaggeration to say that she was unknown. After all, in the circle of big shots, one had to rely on one's own performance to speak for itself. The fans in the circle did not deserve their names.
Wen Yongwei's face immediately flushed red. Before she knew it, Zhui Guang had slapped her face.
She saw her own face on the big screen.
A moment later, all the discussions, accusations, and obvious disdain broke out, and that wasn't the only thing that had humiliated her.
Instead, everyone was criticizing her, but no one actually said her name. Everyone was asking who this woman was!
The director had already cut off the camera and found the real Old Han in the crowd. This scene only lasted for a few seconds, so it couldn't even be considered an accident. However, Wen Yongwei's injuries were no less severe than if she'd been in an explosion.
She used all her strength to control her emotions and maintain her etiquette. However, her palm had already been scratched by her long fingernails, leaving a streak of torn flesh and blood.
"Thank you, Old Han, for coming today. And thank you to all the old artists and seniors for contributing to the film industry. On behalf of everyone in the film industry, I would like to thank all of you again." The emcee continued hosting calmly.
Wen Yongwei was the only one present, and her heart sank. After that, she did not know how but she changed her clothes and went on stage.
Halfway through, Kang Cheng gave her a chance to sing. She walked up to the stage and sang with all her might before leaving.
She didn't even remember what she sang. She was like a wandering soul.
The effect was naturally not very good. Of course... It was not bad. After all, for the sake of the show's effect, she had not turned on the microphone. However, it was completely different from what she had expected.
Shi Jin and Han Houhai sat in the back row and did not take this incident to heart. She did not even care what Wen Yongwei sang on stage.
She and Han Houhai spoke about the current state of the industry, the script structure, and so on to the international film industry. They chatted happily and were inspired by many things.
Han Houhai was getting on in years. Soon, his secretary came to remind him that he needed to go back to take his medicine and rest. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
He could only say goodbye to Shi Jin regretfully. Shi Jin accompanied him all the way and saw him to his car. Only then did she return to the back seat to continue with the film festival.
Wen Yongwei was in the midst of presenting an award when she heard the Best Screenwriter nomination for Sing My Life. Her spirits were finally lifted.
No matter what, this was Big Brother's movie. If the movie won an award, Big Brother's path to stardom would be extremely smooth and he would also increase in popularity.
Her face finally regained its warmth as she looked at the host on stage.
"So, this year's Best Screenwriter Award goes to—"
Following the voice of the guest presenter on stage, everyone's attention was attracted.
Wen Yongwei clenched her fists, hoping to hear that name. Finally, it appeared—
"'Sing My Life'! Congratulations’ Congratulations to the screenwriter, Jinxin! The concept of this movie is exquisite. There were tears and laughter in the young man's footsteps as he chased after his dreams. It has touched on the deepest memories in many people's hearts. Congratulations to the screenwriter, Jinxin!"
Everyone clapped thunderously.
Wen Yongwei smiled and clapped sincerely.
Everyone could not help but look for the mysterious screenwriter.
'Sing My Life' had been very popular recently. Its box office earnings were constantly rising and its reputation was not bad. The screenwriter was also known as the soul of this movie. However, up until now, this Jinxin had not shown their face. They had not even opened a Weibo account. It seemed like they were completely indifferent to fame and fortune.
Everyone naturally wanted to see the true face of this person. However, only Liu Ning stood up and walked towards the stage.
"Producer Liu is receiving the award on Jinxin's behalf?"
"The screenwriter won't show his face?"
"Although there's nothing wrong with Producer Liu accepting the award on his behalf, it's a pity that we don't get to see Jinxin."
The discussions below the stage did not stop.
Liu Ning went on stage, took the trophy, and said to everyone, "Our Jinxin is still working hard for the next film, so she didn't come to receive the award personally. Young people need time and space, and it's the same for me. Thank you everyone, and please continue to support our next work."
Everyone below the stage also understood that the creation required time. They could not help but let out kind laughter and applause.
Shi Jin sat in the back row. Her heart was calm and her gaze was steady.
After Liu Ning got off the stage, he sent Shi Jin a WeChat message: "I'll send you the trophy."
"Sure," Shi Jin replied.
It was almost time and the ceremony was over, so Shi Jin stood up to leave.
Wen Yongwei and Wen Yaoming met up. Wen Yaoming was proud of the award for the script.
The two of them waited for the reporters to come and interview them, but when they got up, they realized that many reporters were swarming towards Shi Jin.
Because Shi Jin and Han Houhai were sitting together, and Elder Han hadn't appeared in public for a long time, the reporters naturally hoped to get some news about him from Shi Jin.
Wen Yongwei and Wen Yaoming were left to one side, forgotten.
That night, Wen Yongwei, who was dressed wantonly and wanted to show off, not only did not stand out, but she also became infamous because she had taken Han Houhai's position.
Her shocked face was captured by the camera, and the people below the stage were also clearly amazed. Soon, Wen Yongwei's reputation as someone who acted like a diva and stole others' positions was plastered all over
the net.
"What kind of status does Wen Yongwei have? She even dared to snatch Old Han's position?"
"The celebrities in your circle are really getting more and more shameless. They'll do anything just to show off."
On the other hand, the fans tried their best to save her pride. "Wasn't Shi Jin sitting in the front row too? Why can't Little Rose sit if Shi Jin does? Are you all anti-fans that Shi Jin has paid off?"
The netizens naturally rebutted. "We're not blind. When Shi Jin went over, it was Liu Ning who asked her to sit there. Furthermore, she left after sitting for a moment and went to the back row
herself. Only one person was completely shameless and sat in Elder Han's seat. That's all, right?"
