Wang Qingchu sat seductively in her seat. Lin Che bit his lip and looked at her back view, his hands clenched tightly together.
Yu Minmin hadn't expected Wang Qingchu to be so arrogant.
She was too young after all and couldn't keep her cool.
Lin Che sneered, "The Panda Awards is a competition of acting skills and you're talking about backing? Seriously … "
Yu Minmin pressed Lin Che's hand, "Calm down, I'll go and ask around."
Watching Yu Minmin get up and leave, Lin Che leaned against the wall alone. He could hear the discussions of the people behind him, which were neither too loud nor too soft, entering his ears.
"Looks like Wang Qingchu is going to win the newcomer award this time."
"But Lin Che is about the same."
"Actually, I already knew that Wang Qingchu had hooked up with the higher-ups of the Panda Television Festival. I've seen them a few times already."
"Oh my god, looks like it's really going to be hers. No wonder she was so confident and walked the red carpet alone with such an imposing manner. It was already decided beforehand. Isn't Lin Che pitiful?"
"That can't be helped."
Although Lin Che didn't have much hope of winning the award, he was still unhappy. After all, if he wasn't good enough, he could accept it wholeheartedly. But being provoked like this, he couldn't be happy.
Unfairness existed everywhere in the world and it was common in this industry. Lin Che just didn't like it when it happened to him.
If you're capable, why don't we compete for popularity and acting skills together?
Wang Qingchu turned around and looked at Lin Che from time to time. She raised her eyebrows and looked extremely pleased with herself.
Lin Che could only look forward and silently take a deep breath.
On the stage, the awards were being handed out one after another, from the Music Award to the Picture Award. Lin Che looked ahead and thought about the newcomer award that was about to be handed out. He quietly sat up straight.
At this moment, Wang Qingchu turned around and smiled at Lin Che. "Don't look forward to it so much. The award is definitely mine. How unlucky, but who asked you to meet me this time? Try harder next time." Wang Qingchu pretended to cover her mouth again, "Oh, I remember now. The newcomer award only comes once in a lifetime. You won't be a newcomer next year."
Lin Che looked at Wang Qingchu. "At least I've relied on my own strength. I've never thought of relying on a backer."
"Ha, having a background is also a kind of strength, especially in this industry. But it seems like you're not as strong as me in this aspect."
As soon as he finished speaking, the host in front said, "This year's TV industry is really full of newcomers. Especially in the first half of the year, there were a lot of good dramas. In the second half of the year, there were also a lot of surprises. There were a lot of good works with good reputation and ratings."
"So, we are going to present this year's Newcomer Award."
After the nominees were shown, the guest presenter smiled and said, "Who will be the winner of this year's Newcomer Award? Wang Qingchu? Is it Gu Ningning? Was it Situ Xing or Lin Che? "
At this time, the other presenter swept his gaze across the audience. All the cameras were focused on the four of them. The other two did not have any expression on their faces. Lin Che was indeed a little stiff. She was not used to being stared at like this. Wang Qingchu, on the other hand, had a confident look on her face as she looked ahead proudly.
At this time, the guest presenter smiled and continued, "The winner of this year's Newcomer Award is Lin Che."
Below, when Lin Che heard his own name, he was shocked beyond belief.
She sat there for a long while without moving. Someone next to her touched her, and she didn't stand up in a hurry.
She was a little absent-minded, and couldn't see anything else under the bright lights. She went to the stage and took the trophy from the presenter.
Wang Qingchu had already raised her butt, and her face turned green when she heard her name.
Looking at the front, Lin Che stood behind the microphone with the trophy in her hand. She was a little excited and said with a smile, "Thank you to all the producers of Sword Passion. Thank you to the director for giving me the opportunity to play such an important role. Thank you so much to all the other actors and actresses. I have learned a lot from them. Thank you so much …"
Wang Qingchu couldn't stand it anymore. She stood up and strode out, ignoring the strange looks from the others.
When he got outside, he looked around and finally found Chief Chen, who was at the back.
She shouted angrily, "What's wrong with you? You said that you would give this role to me. Why did you … How dare you lie to me? Are you messing with me?!"
She felt so embarrassed. She had already said such big words, but in the end, she had to return empty-handed.
"I … I didn't want to. I really wrote your name. Even if everyone said that Lin Che was better, I would still side with you. But today …" President Chen was speechless. "I can only say that Lin Che's background is indeed stronger than yours. I can't do anything about it."
"What?"
"Really, this is the only way. I didn't want her to be such an important person, but that's really something I can't touch. I can't help you even if I wanted to."
Wang Qingchu was listless when she heard this. Because of her anger, her face became twisted.
Soon, Lin Che came down from the stage. She saw Yu Minmin and said in surprise, "I really didn't expect that this award would be given to me. Oh my god, what's going on?"
Yu Minmin smiled and said, "Seems like there's still fairness in this."
Lin Che nodded heavily.
She couldn't hide the joy on her face.
Yu Minmin said, "Remember to treat us to a meal."
"Of course, I'll treat you to a feast, hehe."
The award ceremony ended quickly. As Lin Che was walking out, she heard the sound of her phone ringing.
She opened it and saw that it was Gu Jingze.
She quickly picked up the phone. "Gu Jingze."
Hearing her happy voice, Gu Jingze smiled calmly. "Is it over?"
"Yes, it's just over."
"I'll wait for you outside. Come out."
"Ah, really?"
"Of course. You won the award. Shouldn't you treat me to a meal?" Gu Jingze said.
"Sure, sure. Of course."
Lin Che put down the phone and ran out. Sure enough, she saw Gu Jingze's car outside.
Lin Che jumped into the car and couldn't help but show Gu Jingze the award in her hand.
Gu Jingze smiled and said, "Congratulations."
Lin Che said in surprise, "I was wondering at the time. Everyone said that Wang Qingchu's friend was very powerful and the award was probably going to go to her. But in the end, it was still given to me."
Gu Jingze smiled and said, "It means that you know someone even more powerful."
"What?"
Gu Jingze didn't say anything. He had already started the car. "Let's go. Treat me to a meal."
