Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 50 Awards
On the stage, along with the ninth song, oh no, the host Cao Kefan gave a brief introduction of several candidates for the Best Supporting Actress.

Then he began to introduce the Best Supporting Actress award presenter in a passionate voice:
"Next, let us invite the Best Supporting Actress award presenter, the famous writer, screenwriter, and director Mr. Lin Li, to come on stage!"

As melodious music sounded, Lin Li stood up and simply straightened his clothes, then smiled and nodded to the people around him and the camera in front of him, then walked towards the stage calmly and steadily.

There was thunderous applause from the audience, and led by several bigwigs in the front row, everyone clapped hard.

Some female stars sitting in the audience looked at Lin Li's tall and straight back with their eyes almost moistened to the point of tears coming out.

The camera also recorded these scenes, sparking a discussion among netizens who were watching the live broadcast.

"After all this time, it's no wonder that NTU is the award presenter."

"I felt like the way the female stars looked at Nan Da was playing me, as if they wanted to eat him up!"

"That Yang Zi, stop staring at me, your eyeballs are about to pop out!"

"I think it's Ju Jingyi, her face is red"

"Who isn't? Wang Likun, Jiang Xin, and Wang Ziwen all have shining eyes. They must have seen Tang Monk's flesh."

……

Regardless of the noise online, Lin Li took the list of winners handed over by the staff after he came on stage, and then greeted Cao Kefan.

Cao Kefan held his shoulders and faced the crowd: "Everyone, are you handsome?"

"handsome!"

There was a noisy response from the audience.

Cao Kefan laughed loudly, and then continued: "Young or not? Tender or not?"

“Tender!”

"young!"

Everyone on and off the stage was very cooperative. Lin Li had a smile on his face but was cursing in his heart.

He's not some fresh-faced young guy, so why should he just go for the talent route?

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost set, Cao Kefan turned to Lin Li and asked, "Director Lin, this is your first time attending the Magnolia Awards. As the award presenter, do you have anything to say?"

Lin Li pretended to ponder for a while, then raised the microphone and said, "I am very happy to meet many seniors in the entertainment industry and so many outstanding actors today. I was especially moved by Teacher Zhang Yi's speech. I hope I can have the opportunity to work with Teacher Zhang Yi in the future."

Zhang Yi in the audience quickly stood up and put his hands together to express his gratitude to Lin Li on the stage, and the audience also applauded.

Cao Kefan did not let him go and asked again: "Besides the male actors, are there any female actors here that Director Lin would like to work with?

As soon as these words were spoken, all the actresses present sat up straight, staring at Lin Li on the stage with shining eyes, waiting for his answer.

People like Yang Zi and Ju Jingyi had their hands clenched so tightly that they turned white.

Lin Li looked around the audience and then locked onto his target: "It would be great if I could have the opportunity to work with Teacher Hu Jing. I really like Teacher Hu Jing's interpretation of Gao Xiaoqin."

As the words fell, all the female stars relaxed their bodies with resentment, but still clapped reluctantly.

Only Hu Jing stood up with a flattered look on her face and bowed towards the stage to express her gratitude.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Cao Kefan stopped making trouble, signaled Lin Li that he could announce the award results, and then stepped aside.

Only then did Lin Li have time to open the card with the list of winners and see the names on it.

Wow, let’s do something!

Lin Li raised his eyebrows, thinking that this result might be beyond many people's expectations.

Seeing that many eyes on the stage and the audience were focused on him, he didn't want to keep it a secret and looked up at the audience:
"The winner of the 23rd Magnolia Awards for Best Supporting Actress is Miss Guan Xiaotong. Congratulations!"

As he finished speaking, there was a sudden commotion at the scene, and all the cameras were focused on Guan Xiaotong who was winning the award in the audience.

Guan Xiaotong probably didn't expect that she would win the award. She stood up with her hands covering her mouth in disbelief, laughing while opening her mouth wide to express shock.

The main actors of the Ode to Joy crew smiled and applauded with unnatural expressions. They probably didn't expect this result.

Lin Li felt that he couldn't let this atmosphere continue, so he raised the microphone and said, "Please invite Xiaotong to the stage."

Guan Xiaotong finally reacted and quickly walked onto the stage with her signature long legs. Today, she was wearing a fluffy floral dress, unlike Lin Li's later impressions of her always wearing very short skirts to highlight her long legs.

She is only twenty years old now, and her face is full of collagen. With today's pink makeup, she is still quite cute.

After coming on stage, Guan Xiaotong came up to him excitedly and shook his outstretched hand, expressing her gratitude continuously.

Lin Li took the trophy from the staff with a kind smile and handed it to her, saying soothingly: "Congratulations, calm down and speak."

Guan Xiaotong finally reacted. She said a few words of thanks again, took the trophy and placed it in front of her. She turned to face the audience and took several deep breaths.

It can be seen that she really didn't expect to win the award.

After all, before this, everyone's most guessed that one of the three beauties out of the five beauties from Ode to Joy would win the award, but unexpectedly, it was Guan Xiaotong from Mr. Good who snatched the award in the end.

After calming down, Guan Xiaotong picked up the microphone and said, "Thank you everyone, thank you Magnolia judges, thank you Director Lin for presenting me the award, and thank you to our Mr. Good crew, thank you mom and dad, in short, I am very happy to receive this award. I will definitely be more strict with myself in the future and bring out better works for everyone."

After excitedly speaking a long list of words of thanks, Guan Xiaotong bent down and bowed several times to the audience before standing up.

You can see that the child is really excited, his eyes are red and he is about to cry.

Lin Li stood aside, clapping his hands and waiting for the work to be finished.

Unexpectedly, Guan Xiaotong suddenly ran up to him and asked with an embarrassed look: "Director Lin, I like you very much, can I hug you?"

There was a sudden burst of cheers from the stage and the audience, and several cameras quickly turned to this side.

Lin Li didn't act pretentiously and smiled as he opened his arms.

Guan Xiaotong quickly squeezed into his arms, hugged him tightly, put her head on his shoulder, and could even feel the softness in front of her.

But he didn't dare to do anything. He just hugged her and then quickly left.

Although it's okay for people to hug each other in this kind of situation, you are too careless. Girls nowadays are really amazing!
The online audiences were also excited, after all, Lin Li was different from other male actors.

Many fans can still see their idols have a lot of intimate scenes through film and television dramas, and they can even relate to the scenes themselves.

But Lin Li works behind the scenes, and everyone has always only had fantasies about him. But today, when he saw Guan Xiaotong hugging him so hard in the live broadcast, he immediately didn't want to!
"Hey, let us go!"

"Do you understand the sense of distance? Is there a way to hug someone like this? Didn't you see that Nan University always hugs politely?"

"Ahhh, I'm so envious, I really want to take your place!"

"I don't know what it feels like to be hugged by Nanda, I just want to be Guan Xiaotong!"

……

At the same time, Beijing.

Liu Yifei, who was sitting on the sofa, petting her cat and watching the live broadcast of the Magnolia Awards on TV, let out a silvery laugh.

She has been watching it since the red carpet today. After all, it is one of the three major domestic TV series.

I also accidentally discovered that Lin Li also participated in this event, and I instantly became interested.

When she saw Lin Li chatting and laughing with a group of bigwigs in the backstage, she was surprised at his status in the circle, and at the same time she was attracted by his outstanding look and calm temperament today.

And when Guan Xiaotong went up to hug him at the end, she saw an unnatural look on his face and immediately found it very funny.

She felt that Lin Li was quite contrasting the last time they met. He seemed very mature in his way of dealing with things, but he would show the awkwardness of a little boy in front of her, which was very interesting.

It was the same today. One second he was chatting calmly with many big guys, and the next second he was embarrassed by a hug from a little girl.

The contrast was so great that it aroused a long-lost interest in her, who had not been in a relationship for a long time.

Although there is a big age gap between the two people, others might care about it or even feel a little inferior.

But would she care? No.

She is Liu Yifei!

What she didn't know was that Lin Li was so resistant not because he was so self-disciplined, but because Xiaotian was watching the live broadcast in the hotel and waiting for him!
He didn't want to face the wrath of this hot girl from Sichuan and Chongqing as soon as they met after not seeing each other for a long time!
