Chapter 276: She Won
The opening of the Golden Phoenix Award didn’t give her much time to rest. It took place on the third day that she was back.
This was the first time Yan Huan walked the red carpet. Of course, in this life at least.
She wore a white dress that reached her knees and she paired it with a silver high heel., making her seem taller than usual. She had a skinny frame and dressing like this made her seem skinnier, yet more photogenic.
Her hair was casually swept back and the stylist didn’t do too much to her or give her something outrageous. All of it came naturally; the make-up wasn’t too thick and was pretty refreshing.
On the red carpet, she casually nodded with her back incredibly straight. Her high heels stepped on the red carpet lightly and it almost seemed as if she had returned to her past life when she was at her peak.
She closed her eyes and quietly let out a sigh.
She then let out a smile and the worry in her eyes disappeared.
She, Yan Huan, was back.
The light landed on her body. She stopped, turned and smiled.
It almost seemed as if she had undergone proper training, it was almost perfect.
Sitting afar, Yi Ling was incredibly nervous as she broke out into a cold sweat.
“She is doing very well, it doesn’t seem like it’s her first time walking the red carpet,” Luo Lin rested her back against the chair as she observed Yan Huan walking carefully. Only someone who was familiar with the red carpet would be able to do this.
Because from certain angles, no matter how the pictures are taken, they wouldn’t be too bad.
“Are you sure Yan Huan has never walked any red carpet?”
Luo Lin wanted to confirm once more from Yi Ling.
“Yes yes,” Yi Ling nodded harder. “She used to be a stuntwoman and has never walked any red carpet before.” She didn’t dare say the rest but when it comes to whether Yan Huan has walked a red carpet before, she was very sure that she hadn’t.
She carried herself well and Luo Lin had no idea what to say about Yan Huan. She was worried at first that she wouldn’t be comfortable with many things, considering it would be her first time walking the red carpet. However, she was surprised that Yan Huan didn’t need them worrying at all. She was putting on a good show and had already surpassed many other actresses.
After the red carpet, they were announcing various awards.
The first was the best director award. Of course the winner of the best director award was Director Jin Hailiang. After all, Director Jin’s Love and Tribulations as well as Journey To Fairyland were the best shows of the year. Of course there was the director of Divorced, Director Huang Ming. After all, he managed to set a $600 million box office record with a phone. This wasn’t something many people could do.
As of this year, no one is able to break the$600 million record. All the films that were released during the new year period had performed mediocrely and Huang Ming deserved the title of best director.
Song Qi was a new director and had become the black horse of this year’s Golden Phoenix Awards. He would win the glory that he deserves and it is sufficient to say that his achievements will not be limited to this in the future.
The best scriptwriter and story award went to different winners. Yan Huan didn’t pay attention to who the best supporting actor award went to and she didn’t care also. In actual fact, none of these awards mattered to her.
“The winner for the best female actress award is…” The host paused for effect. All the lights were moving around and everyone’s hearts were in their throat. There were screams and fear and nervousness.
The light stopped on Yan Huan. She lifted her head and gave a casual smile. She wasn’t incredibly nervous or excited as she knew it wouldn’t be her.
As expected, it didn’t take long for the light to move away from her as it landed on Liang Chen.
Yi Ling had gripped the shirt she was wearing tightly at the front; she had almost screamed earlier.
Almost, just almost. She wanted to scream and go crazy and Yan Huan was about to win the best actress award. What was this? This was the movie queen. It was a pity that her Huanhuan didn’t win that in the end.
Liang Chen went up onstage to receive her award. This wasn’t her first time winning this award but she was still incredibly excited.
Her gaze shifted down a little and landed on to Yan Huan.
Yan Huan gave her a thumbs up before she squinted a little. She wasn’t the least upset or jealous. She knew that this prize didn’t belong to her; it belonged to Liang Chen at the end of the day. She was meant to win it.
Hence, she wasn’t upset or jealous at all. Of course there was a little admiration and she couldn’t deny that. After all, she didn’t know how much longer she needed to be able to stand up there.
“Let us present our best newcomer award now.” The host shouted on stage. “It is quite a coincidence this time since the best newcomer and best supporting actress is the same person.”
“Everybody make a guess who will it be. Who will be our lucky winner here?”
Everyone below looked at each other. Naturally, they had no idea who it will be.
Some of them straightened their bodies; they were obviously very confident of themselves and of their acting.
The lights started moving around crazily again.
Almost like a knight attaining sainthood, when the light landed on that person, she would become a fairy. The newcomer award was a huge stepping stone in one’s acting career. It was incredibly precious. As for the best supporting actress, this goes without saying. With this award, she wouldn’t need of fearing getting the best actress award and becoming the movie queen.
The light stopped on many people as it moved around. When it stopped, many actresses got flustered and what followed immense gratitude and excitement.
However, they didn’t have much time to be excited as the light seemed to be teasing them, disappearing after a while and returning. One needed to have a strong heart to attend such an awards ceremony. If not one’s skin might fall off from all this stress.
The light finally landed on Yan Huan as the host spoke again.
“Congratulations Yan Huan for winning both the best newcomer award and best supporting actress award.” The screen showed stills from Divorced as well as Hong Yao from Love and Tribulations.
Yan Huan knew that her best supporting actress award was referring to Hong Yao.
She wouldn’t mind it if she won it from Journey to Fairyland. She felt that she could win two best supporting actresses awards. However, she had acted in both and there was only one prize.
