Has Big Shot Fallen in Love Today?-Chapter 818: Goddess
At the Qinglan Awards dinner, Sheng Tang was not the focus.
She won an award, but it was only for Best Supporting Actress, not yet reaching the status of "Best Actress."
The Best Actress award was claimed by an actress approximately the same age as Sheng Tang.
"I didn’t expect Wang Chuiyang to win Best Actress at such a young age," Qian Zhe Lin spoke softly with Sheng Tang.
Wang Chuiyang was indeed tonight’s Best Actress.
Unlike Sheng Tang, she was born a child star. Her father was an excellent director, her mother an actress, and she grew up in the film industry, the offspring of a family with star power legacy.
At twenty-five, Wang Chuiyang had acted in seven or eight films, some of which were box office hits, though more were artistic films.
The Qinglan Awards have a particular fondness for actors in artistic films.
Last year, Wang Chuiyang’s father passed away.
Her father was an older husband to a younger wife. Even so, he was only 65 when he died, not particularly old.
This year, Wang Chuiyang’s PR strategy revolved around the fact that her father had died without seeing her win an award.
Her father had served two terms as the chairman of the Qinglan Award Jury, maintaining great relationships with the jurors.
Perhaps because of this, the jurors gave Wang Chuiyang sentimental scores, allowing her to defeat the more convincing actress Zheng Guangru and win Best Actress.
"Sheng Tang, if you work hard, maybe next year you’ll win Best Actress," Qian Zhe Lin said, full of confidence in Sheng Tang.
Sheng Tang laughed: "Sure, I’ll do my best."
The two whispered to each other, while Wang Sheng was still immersed in joy over there. He was extremely happy, having not held any hope for this award, yet he managed to win it.
As the dinner began, some people came over to chat with Sheng Tang and Wang Sheng.
Ding Ruifan and his wife personally came to Sheng Tang’s table to congratulate her.
"Little junior sister, quite impressive," Mrs. Ding’s eyes sparkled with joy, "When your senior brother was your age, he was still working as an extra."
"Indeed, I can’t compare in terms of talent with little junior sister," Ding Ruifan said.
Sheng Tang blushed at their remarks: "Senior brother, sister-in-law, please don’t tease me."
Mrs. Ding laughed.
Then, she led Sheng Tang to greet several well-known directors, producers, and executives of production companies.
Among them was Director Han Haoming.
As the most influential figure, he was also the chairman of this year’s jury.
Upon seeing Sheng Tang, he displayed a sincere smile: "I strongly advocated for you to receive this award, your portrayal of Li Lan was truly excellent."
Sheng Tang was deeply grateful.
She exchanged a few words with Director Han.
Director Han then said: "I have a young friend who frequently praises you. He’s here today as well, have you met?"
He gestured towards the distance.
In the crowd, socializing, Qi Lin walked quickly towards them.
Director Han pointed at Sheng Tang and said to Qi Lin: "Look, your goddess is here and yet you’re still running around."
Ding Ruifan teased: "Does Qi Lin know my young junior sister?"
"We were high school classmates," Qi Lin smiled.
Sheng Tang suddenly realized how she ended up winning the award.
Qi Lin had said good things about Sheng Tang to Director Han, and Sheng Tang’s acting was indeed excellent, leaving an impression on Director Han who then gave her his vote.
She gratefully looked at Qi Lin.
Qi Lin was somewhat embarrassed.
When she entered earlier, she didn’t notice Qi Lin accompanying Director Han.
Luck is such an uncertain thing.
Sheng Tang chatted with Qi Lin for a while longer.
They agreed to visit Huishi another day, then parted ways, and Sheng Tang returned to her seat.
She glanced at the time and wondered if Gu Shiting had arrived, wanting the banquet to end soon.
