Chapter 467: Best Single Award
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The production team of “Zhaoyuan” was surrounded by Jian Tan, the Ding Corporation, and Shen Fei. They had great ambitions and appetites. No one wanted to give up or offend anyone, but how could there be such a simple and easy thing in the world?
It was already on account of Bai Ye that Jian Tan could take a step back!
After all, Bai Ye and Xia Wei used to be teachers and students. Moreover, Jian Tan vaguely felt that Bai Ye was a very important person to Xia Wei.
As for the others, they were just polite interactions in the vanity fair.
Ma Lei was wrong about something just now. He and Chen Jing were not old friends, so they did not have a strong relationship.
In Ma Lei’s opinion, today’s negotiation was already a very rare victory. As the most difficult party to shake on the surface, Jian Tan had already compromised at this moment. Wouldn’t the others be at her mercy?!
She had nipped whatever Ding Jing wanted to do in the bud. Although this was understandable, it could at least make up for some of her guilt towards Jian Tan and Emperor.
Just as Jian Tan and Ma Lei were engaged in this tit-for-tat negotiation, the live-stream of the Billboard Music Chart continued. The award ceremony today officially began after the performance guests ended the warm-up segment!
“Let’s go to the center of the venue and wait to pick her up. She’ll probably be angry if she doesn’t see me when she comes out later.” As Jian Tan spoke, he leaned against the car seat and said to the MPV’s chauffeur in front without looking up.
Wu Fan sat beside him with a serious expression, as if he had something to say to him. However, he did not say anything in the end when he saw Jian Tan’s nonchalant state.
Just as Ma Lei had concluded, Jian Tan seemed to have won a few games in the preparation of this movie!
Although he did not completely win, it was indeed the best outcome. If it were anyone else, they would probably be laughed at by the others before they could say this request, let alone change Ding Jing to help Shen Fei get the role at the last minute.
Chen Jing and the Ding Corporation had no choice but to make changes with Jian Tan’s tough methods. This outcome was actually foreseeable, but it was a little more complicated than Jian Tan had imagined.
However, Jian Tan still neglected one thing. That was, the mysterious investor who had 80 million yuan and had similar opinions as him. The other party’s initial request was to replace Ding Jing and help Xia Wei take the first female lead position. Although it did not succeed, this request was worth Jian Tan’s consideration. It was just that he accidentally ignored it!
When Jian Tan finished his last work for the day and rushed to the backstage of the award ceremony to pick up Xia Wei, the award ceremony had already reached the climax. The live-stream and the event location formed a harmony that complemented each other!
“I announce the winner of the 17th Billboard Music Festival’s ‘Best Single Award’—”‘Breaking Dawn’! Let’s welcome producer He Shi and the original singer, Xia Wei, on stage to receive the award!”
As soon as the emcee’s passionate voice landed, the venue immediately erupted in applause. The caster’s camera landed on He Shi and Xia Wei, and the fans and netizens in the live-stream instantly exploded!
[You deserve it! Teacher He Shi, you’re the best! He Shi is the most awesome producer of Chinese music! I’ll drink this toast to everyone first!]
[Although I already knew the outcome, I’m still so touched. Boohoo, our Weiwei has become successful!]
[I didn’t expect Xia Wei’s first award to be like this. Oh my god! Why does this matter feel a little ridiculous? Haha!]
[Don’t be anxious, sisters. It’s just the Best Single Award. The main award is still to come! Calm down!]
[Yes, yes, yes. Calm down!]
Xia Wei reached out and placed her hand on He Shi’s wrist. She stood up slowly. Although she had already greeted Teacher He Shi and said that her actions tonight might be slower, Xia Wei did not want to appear too pretentious when the spotlight shone on her and everyone’s eyes were on her. Hence, she threw away the cane in her hand and relied on He Shi’s help to walk up.
“Take it slow. There’s no hurry.” He Shi saw through Xia Wei’s thoughts and comforted her with a smile..
