Chapter 469 Venice Film Festival [Part ]
Beijing.
VIP room of a club.
More than a dozen women gathered together, and the noisy noise almost blew the roof off, but a closer look revealed that there was order in the chaos and clear distinctions.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Xiaolu turned on the wall-mounted TV, and the channel that had been tuned long ago immediately broadcast the live broadcast of the award ceremony.
The private room also became quiet.
However, when they found that there was no information related to Xu Kun on the screen, everyone quickly shifted their attention and discussed each other's recent situation in groups of three or five.
Tang Yan, who was upset by Zhao Liying's "three words", originally wanted to seek warmth from Yang Mi. However, although Yang Mi and Zhao Liying did not get along well, he was in a good time.
She was able to successfully win over Jia Tanchun in "Dream of Red Mansions" and was promoted from the second female lead to the first female lead in "Chinese Paladin III". So even though the two of them shared the same hatred and the same enemy, they still had a conversation that was completely irrelevant.
To put it bluntly, Yang Mi was temporarily unable to empathize with Tang Yan's jealousy, and her condescending attitude towards Zhao Liying also made Tang Yan, who could only play the third female role, feel uncomfortable.
So the two of them chatted and then separated for some unknown reason.
Yang Mi turned around and saw Liu Shishi and Zhao Liying chatting enthusiastically, and began to wonder if he should do the opposite.
In order to get more resources from Brother Kun, she once wanted to push Liu Shishi to Xu Kun in order to win Brother Kun's favor.
But times have changed. Now she has achieved success in both Red Mansions and Fairy Sword. By the time the two dramas are aired, her status will probably be similar to that of the unambitious Liu Shishi.
By that time, she and Liu Shishi would no longer be in a mutually beneficial relationship, but a competitive relationship for resources.
In this case, instead of pushing Liu Shishi to Brother Kun, she should be advised to take care of herself. It would be best if she learned from the previous Tangren No. 1 sisters to find a man to marry, semi-retire from the entertainment industry and take care of her husband and children.
Thinking of this, she took advantage of the fact that Zhao Liying was called by Jiang Yiyan to show off, and quietly approached Liu Shishi, sighing, "There are really more and more people in this circle."
She wanted to sow discord between Xu Kun and Liu Shishi by saying that Xu Kun was too fickle.
Unexpectedly, Liu Shishi did not play by the rules. She looked around and said, "There are more people than before, but it seems I haven't seen Sister Xiong for a long time."
"Uh~"
Yang Mi, who was interrupted, could only explain first: "I heard that Xiong Naijin was going to switch to Chengtian Entertainment after the contract with Huayi reached the later stage - Chengtian Entertainment is Huayi's mortal enemy, and it also spread rumors about Brother Kun.
If it weren't for Sister Gan Wei's sake, she should have been taught a lesson. Now everyone just treats her as if she doesn't exist, so naturally it's impossible to invite her to a party."
"So that's what happened."
Liu Shishi couldn't help but sigh. Although she didn't have much contact with Xiong Naijin, she instinctively didn't want the sisters to separate while walking.
"Just go."
Yang Yi sighed and brought the topic back to the topic: "There are so many people now, how many of them can really be taken care of by Brother Kun? Maybe she will have a better development if she leaves this circle."
Hearing this, Liu Shishi secretly glanced at Yang Mi. Although she didn't know why, Yang Mi was obviously a little strange today. Anyway, the feeling was very different from before.
Liu Shishi thought about it and asked tentatively: "Do you want to go to Chengtian Entertainment too?"
What does this have to do with anything!
"How is that possible? Don't talk nonsense!"
Yang Mi hurriedly denied it, fearing that others would hear it. She was not Xiong Naijin, and she still had Gan Wei to rely on. If she was really regarded as a traitor, her fate would definitely not be good.
"Look!"
At this time, Jiang Xin pointed at the TV and shouted, "It's Brother Kun, Brother Kun is on stage!"
Everyone's eyes were immediately focused on the screen, and they witnessed the scene of the surging crowd lining the streets to greet them.
Although the girls had heard that Xu Kun had become a popular figure in Venice before they came, that was news that had been passed around several times. How could it be as shocking as seeing it with their own eyes?
The live TV broadcast then changed its previous habit of focusing on the red carpet and switched the camera to the award ceremony hall from time to time, with seven out of ten shots focused on Xu Kun.
What is focus and what is protagonist? Foreigners’ lenses never lie!
"Does this mean that Brother Kun is safe today?" Jiang Yiyan clenched her fists, feeling even more nervous than Xu Kun on the screen.
"Hard to say."
Hao Lei shook her head and said, "It is also possible that this is a deliberate attempt to confuse the opponent. After all, the opponent is an Italian actor, and his acting skills are also remarkable..."
"That's no match for Brother Kun!"
Jiang Yiyan said firmly: "If Brother Kun can't win the Best Actor award, there must be something fishy going on!"
At this time, Li Xiaolu emptied all the fruit plates on the coffee table, and then placed two empty plates across a bottle of red wine, patting the table and saying, "Come on, let's open a bet on whether he can win the Best Actor award."
As she said this, she placed an apple on her left side and said, "I'll bet 100 million that he can't get it."
"What the hell are you doing?"
Hao Lei was speechless and said, "We are here to cheer him on. How can we bet on him to lose?"
"I know."
Li Xiaolu argued confidently: "You must have all bet on him to win. If I don't bet on him to lose, then there will be no opponent, right?"
"Pooh, pooh, pooh, children's words are blown away by the wind!"
Jiang Yiyan reached out, grabbed the apple and threw it directly into the trash can.
Seeing that there was no more money to bet on, Li Xiaolu could only sit back on the sofa muttering to herself.
After that, most people became a little absent-minded and spoke less. After all, most of the women present had a close relationship with Xu Kun, and whether he could win the award was related to the interests of everyone.
As the awards were presented one after another, the tense atmosphere in the box grew more and more intense.
As the Best Actor award was about to begin, I don't know who started it, but gradually everyone started making prayer gestures, as if they wanted to convey their blessings to the screen through this action.
"cough~"
At this time, Li Xiaolu cleared her throat, looked around at everyone and said, "Do you want me to..."
Hao Lei, Jiang Yiyan, Qin Lan: "Shut up!"
Seeing that she had angered everyone, Li Xiaolu shrank her neck and acted as a well-behaved person.
Just at this moment, Jiang Yiyan's cell phone suddenly rang.
Everyone subconsciously looked at her again. Jiang Yiyan hurriedly picked up the phone and was about to hang up, but when she looked at the caller ID, it turned out to be Xu Kun calling.
Jiang Yiyan quickly pressed the hands-free button and asked excitedly, "Brother Kun, we are all together here, why are you still free to call me at this time?"
"If not now, when?"
Xu Kun's powerful voice came from the other side: "Haha, Best Actor, I have successfully won it!"
"what?!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then Huo Siyan suddenly realized: "I guess this is not a real live broadcast, there is a time difference."
"Oh, are you watching the live broadcast?"
Hearing this, Xu Kun smiled and said, "I won the trophy twenty minutes ago, and at that time..."
Just when I was talking about this, a loud "Chinese Xu" suddenly came from the TV screen!
Xu Kun also heard it on the phone and immediately laughed, "Since you all saw it, I won't say much. I'll hang up first. I still have to notify other people."
After hanging up the phone, everyone felt like their story had been spoiled.
But seeing Xu Kun suddenly stand up under the spotlight, excitedly hugging Feng Xiaogang and shaking hands with Wang Zhonglei, and then strode up to the stage to receive the award, a feeling of witnessing history still arose spontaneously.
