Tangning was the chairwoman of Tang Corps. Even if she didn't become an actress, it wouldn't have much of an impact. But, when faced with someone as shameless as her stepmother, if she was in her shoes, she would also fight for the Fei Tian Award to the very end.
That's right, her stepmother was the female lead of 'Survive'. She was half a year younger than her, yet she was currently acting as her stepmother. Her name was Ye Lan.
"Xu Qingyan, don't forget that I am your elder. Don't get the wrong enemy."
"The biggest enemy of my life is already right in front of me. Miss Ye Lan, what do you think?" After speaking, Xu Qingyan crossed her arms and turned to leave. Of course, she wasn't lying when she said she was on Tangning's side. She didn't know why, but she felt like she and Tangning had hit it off the moment they met. It was easy for her to feel a sense of empathy from Tangning.
So, she immediately gave Xu Corps a phone call and asked for Tangning's contact details.
For Xu Qingyan, there was no other mistress in this world that was as shameless as Ye Lan. In order to become Mrs. Xu, Ye Lan was willing to do anything. In fact, in order to please her father, she even went to Japan to learn some dirty and unpresentable things.
Perhaps, because she was good at it, Ye Lan actually went to act. In fact, her acting skills were quite good.
But, because of Ye Lan's ruthless methods, she didn't take anyone seriously. Of course, this included Tangning.
In fact, she even had something to do with the votes that were being manipulated.
Yet, a person like her that couldn't even be bothered to hide her evil side managed to charm her father.
...
Soon, it was time for the second round of voting for the Best Newcomer Actress category. This time, everyone had a serious expression on their faces, like they were thinking about something important.
"I know that most of you have already decided on yesterday's result. But, at least give me an answer."
"I will still maintain my original vote."
"Me too."
"Me too..."
Out of everyone present, around 10 people expressed that the results had not changed and they would still maintain their original vote...
But, did this mean that Tangning would never be able to win the Fei Tian Award for Best Newcomer? He didn't even get nominated?
"No matter what the result is, let's talk about it after the vote..." Elder Mo said in an unhappy tone. "However, I need to remind everyone that Hai Rui has quickly done their PR after the contents of our meeting were leaked. Of course, I am also curious as to how it was leaked."
"Elder Mo, we only agreed to hold a second vote because we respect you. However, this does not mean that you can unscrupulously suspect and insult us …"
"How would we know why the contents of the meeting were leaked?"
"Cut the crap. Let's start the second round."
In reality, although the majority of the voters did not change their original intentions, there were a few that were seriously considering their decision. Especially after seeing Hai Rui's fan letter.
Tangning's acting skills were actually on par with the award-winning actors in the past. In other words, Tangning's acting skills were undeniable.
As for prejudice, it was something that could be eliminated, even though there weren't many of them. However, for the second vote, it still played a role to a certain extent …
In the end, Tangning came in 5th place and Ye Lan came in 6th. It was only a difference of one vote, but Tangning won by a narrow margin.
The results were out. Although Elder Mo was still not satisfied with the results, at least Tangning was on the shortlist. As for the second round of voting, it would be conducted by another group.
At this time, someone began to question Elder Mo.
"Elder Mo, I have nothing to say about the results of the vote. But, I would like to know who you voted for in the end. Don't tell me you directly gave it to Tangning? "
"What do you mean by that?" Elder Mo asked.
"You've always reminded us to be fair and objective. But, we want to know if you've done your job as a judge," the man said after a short pause. The man paused for a moment before continuing, "If you want to convince us, it's easy. You simply need to cancel Tangning's vote. After all, although you've been fair your entire life, will you become muddle-headed as you get older?"
By canceling Tangning's vote, she would return to being the same as Ye Lan!
Although Elder Mo wanted to refute, he could tell from the looks of the crowd that they agreed with the man's suggestion.
So, Elder Mo smiled calmly, "So, all I have to do is cancel one of my votes?"
"Of course," the man replied confidently.
"OK then," Elder Mo said before he turned to the staff that was in charge of revealing the results. "Cancel my vote."
Everyone assumed that Elder Mo would vote for Tangning. But, in reality, Tangning's votes did not change. Instead, the ones that changed were the first and second place actresses.
Elder Mo had voted for someone else, not for Tangning!
"What else do you guys have to say?"
Everyone fell silent, including the person that asked Elder Mo to cancel his vote. Since the new results had already been announced, everyone should comply.
"Since you have nothing else to say, then the nominees will be confirmed."
A portion of the people did not think the result was a big deal. But, a portion of the people that opposed Tangning scoffed in their hearts. So what if she was nominated? The lowest number of votes meant that Tangning had the least chance of receiving an award. But, even if she had the least chance, it didn't mean she didn't have one …
The next group of judges would be even stricter and no one would be able to influence their decision. So, Elder Mo no longer needed to worry about Tangning's situation. In reality, after Hai Rui's PR handled the matter, the public accepted the fact that Tangning had a chance of receiving an award. After all, Tangning's ability was clear for all to see …
As long as Hai Rui emphasized Tangning's ability over and over again, they would be able to fend off most of the rumors.
This was the result of the Mo Family's grandfather and grandson's hard work. One did it for his wife, while the other did it for his granddaughter-in-law. As long as it was for their family and loved ones, they were willing to do anything.
Of course, they simply wanted to give Tangning a fair chance. After all, they had Tangning's back. Although she was protected, she would also be questioned.
Tangning was obviously such an outstanding actress …
For the sake of acting, she worked harder than anyone else!
But, because of Hai Rui and the fact that she was Mo Ting's wife, everyone had higher expectations for her …
