Seeing that Gu Jingze had left without a word, Lin Che thought that he had finally left after his joke. She could only helplessly drag her dress to attend the TV Festival.
Outside the venue of the Panda TV Festival, it was already crowded.
Lin Che lifted her dress and walked inside with Yu Minmin accompanying her.
Yu Minmin said to her, "You should have a good chance this time. Even if you don't win in the end, we'll still be here."
"I don't think I have a good chance. There are many popular dramas this year and many characters are better than mine, especially those who are both good and evil. Everyone thinks that bad women have good acting skills."
"Not necessarily. Your character is also very good." Yu Minmin smiled and patted Lin Che's arm.
Lin Che looked outside. A new female star from a popular TV series was walking down the red carpet. The host was enthusiastically introducing her, saying, "Wang Qingchu's performance in the TV series' Women's World 'is remarkable. Her image as a bad woman is deeply rooted in people's hearts. She is only 20 years old this year and also the youngest of the nominees."
Lin Che watched as everyone welcomed Wang Qingchu in. Flashes lit up one after another. He couldn't help but shrug and look at Yu Minmin.
This was her competitor that Lin Che had been talking about.
She was only 20 years old but she was indeed shining.
Yu Minmin heard the people beside her commenting without any scruples, "Looks like she's very likely to win this time. She looks so proud as if victory is already in her hands."
"Yeah, and she just got into a relationship with Liu Kai recently. She's always in the top of the trending topics list. I also think she'll be the big winner this time."
Everyone looked at Lin Che and then looked at her disdainfully.
Lin Che turned around and Yu Minmin said in a low voice, "Don't care what they think. In this industry, there are many people who just like to talk nonsense."
Lin Che nodded. "It's okay, Sister Yu. I know."
However, at this moment, someone suddenly patted the back of her head from behind.
"Aiyo, who is it?"
She turned around and saw Gu Jingyu, who she hadn't seen for a long time. She didn't know when he had appeared behind her.
"What are you looking at?" he asked.
Lin Che said, "Gu Jingyu, why are you here?"
"Did I see you standing here like a fool? That's why I came to take a look."
"How am I stupid …" Lin Che rubbed his head.
Gu Jingyu said, "Silly girl, let's go. Don't wait anymore. Come with me."
"Ah? You're not the finale? I don't have anyone to walk the red carpet with. "
"Isn't it a good match now?"
"But …" Lin Che was dragged by him as he stumbled forward.
"But what? Let's go. I'll go with you."
How could that be?
Although she knew that Gu Jingyu loved to break the rules for no reason and that the rules meant nothing to him, Lin Che was a person who abided by the rules in the industry.
Gu Jingyu was originally supposed to be the finale, so after Lin Che was dragged along, everyone looked at him with jealousy. But, when it was Gu Jingyu's turn, he forcefully pulled Lin Che over to his side, held her hand in the crook of his arm and dragged her onto the red carpet.
The emcee was shocked, but he knew that Gu Jingyu often didn't play by the rules, so he reacted quickly.
Everyone looked at the two of them walking on the red carpet enviously. Suddenly, the cameras flashed violently, saying that Gu Jingyu had abandoned the female lead and walked the red carpet with the supporting actress.
They were indeed the couple that everyone had been hyping up for a while.
Yu Minmin watched from behind and shook his head speechlessly.
Finally, they walked past the red carpet and sat in their seats inside.
In the front, Wang Qingchu suddenly turned around and smiled at Lin Che, who was sitting in the back seat. "We were nominated together this time," she said.
Lin Che also smiled. "Yeah."
"I think your Jian Qing has a good chance of winning. After all, there's Gu Jingyu and Mu Feiran, and even the supporting actress is top-notch like Lin Li. Our team can't do it. We're all newbies, and none of us are experienced. We're lucky to be popular, but I don't know how we became the dark horse."
Although she sounded humble, it sounded like she was proud.
Did she mean that Lin Che's team was popular because they had celebrities, but they didn't have any celebrities and relied on their abilities?
Lin Che smiled and said, "Is that so? I really don't know why none of the big-name celebrities are interested in your script. It seems like it's a good script."
What he meant was that this kind of rubbish script had no technical content. Of course, the big-name celebrities wouldn't be interested in it.
Wang Qingchu's expression changed slightly. She glared at Lin Che and muttered in her heart, "Isn't it just because you have Gu Jingyu's support?"
At this moment, many people passed by and saw Lin Che. They hurried over to greet him.
Some of them knew him, some of them didn't, some of them had seen him before, and some of them hadn't.
Although Lin Che had always been filming, he had never attended any gatherings within the industry. This Television Festival was like a big gathering. Almost everyone that he could name was present and they were all people that had works this year. So, this was the first time Lin Che realized that so many people actually knew of him and that there were actually people that wanted to get to know him.
After being surrounded for a long time, when it was about to start, everyone returned to their seats.
Lin Che heaved a sigh of relief and said to Yu Minmin, "We exchanged many WeChat IDs just now."
Yu Minmin said, "Of course. You're on the rise now. There are many people who want to get to know you."
"Why do they want to know me?" Lin Che asked curiously.
Yu Minmin said, "Networking in this industry is very important. Who knows who will need who in the future? You're a celebrity now, and your future is limitless. Of course, they want to get to know you as soon as possible."
"Alright." Lin Che didn't expect that he was already valuable in other people's hearts. "I thought I was still a newcomer."
"You're just a newcomer this year. You'll get more and more popular in the future!" Yu Minmin smiled at him.
"Who knows? There are so many newcomers nowadays. I don't even know if I'll be left on the beach."
Because of his past experience, Lin Che wasn't that optimistic.
In front, Wang Qingchu looked at them. She snorted and turned her head away. In comparison, there were indeed fewer people on her side. She muttered in her heart, "Isn't it just Gu Jingyu? Who does he think he is?" She didn't believe that Lin Che could rely on him for the rest of his life.
The award ceremony soon started.
However, Wang Qingchu quietly left the place.
In the private room outside, the sound of panting could be heard.
Wang Qingchu panted tenderly, "President Chen, you said that the newcomer award this time would definitely be mine."
"Yeah, it's yours. It's yours."
"Didn't you see how arrogant Lin Che was just now? Relying on Gu Jingyu's love, he stole tomorrow's headlines. Then the newcomer award must not be given to him!"
"Alright, alright, I won't give it to him. Baby, let's continue …"
Wang Qingchu put on makeup and looked at Lin Che behind her. She smiled proudly. When she heard Yu Minmin show her Wan Yi's acceptance speech, she smiled even more and said, "Let's not waste time, Lin Che. Although I know that your acting is not bad and you work hard, I'm definitely going to get the award this time." She turned around and said, "Even if you know Gu Jingyu, I can tell you clearly … You have no idea what kind of backing I have!"
