I Transmigrated As A Villain’s Mother

Chapter 667 - 667 Anticipation

667 Anticipation

Shi Mingyu grinned and kept clapping for him.

Song Ci looked at him, a smile slowly appearing in her eyes. Perhaps in the original book, Shi Mingyu had also been like this, overjoyed and excited at Qian Wu’s award. His hands were red from clapping, but still, he continued. However, he then turned around and left when Qian Wu needed the support the most. From then on, he could no longer untie the knot in his heart. He did not even feel worthy of cheering for him.

Now, Qian Wu was publicly thanking him on stage, while Shi Mingyu was sitting in the audience with tears in his eyes. They would always be best friends, confidants most sincere in their efforts. Shi Mingyu would no longer be so guilty that he did not dare to raise his head.

The news of Qian Wu winning the award quickly spread throughout the country. As an unknown young director who had won Best Director at the International Film Festival, the netizens were filled with curiosity about him. Immediately after, the trending topic was, “Qian Wu thanks Song Ci.”

The netizens looked at this familiar entry and sighed with emotion.

[Again? Someone thanked Song Ci again?]

[Good Lord, as expected of Song Ci. She’s beautiful and kind.]

[My blind guess is that Director Qian found many people unwilling to play his female lead and was about to give up when Song Ci agreed. As Song Ci is popular, investors invested in the movie on her account. That’s why this movie exists and why Director Gian is very grateful to her.]

[To be able to film the work of an unknown director while she’s still popular, Song Ci must have believed in him quite a bit.]

[Indeed. I just checked. Qian Wu only has two movies, and I’ve never heard of either of them. One has never been released, and the other never made any box office sales. Even C-list actors wouldn’t be interested in such directors, much less a popular one like Song Ci. At that time, she had just finished working with Director Chen and the Best Actor winner too.]

[She has a good eye. Whether it’s Fu Qinqin, Chu Yi, or Director Qian, they all won in their own honor. Also, Song Ci didn’t forget to bring Chu Yi along when she was filming this movie. It’s really touching.]

[There’s also Fu Qinqin. I searched, and Fu Qinqin will be the one singing the theme song for this movie. Although she wasn’t nominated, Song Ci is a good person. She always helps Fu Qinqin get the theme song in all her TV and movies.]

[This is so warm. No wonder Chu Yi said that she had ended his winter. I wonder how many people’s winters she ended?]

Song Ci, who had high hopes, was sitting nervously at the award ceremony of the International Film Festival.

A few awards passed since Qian Wu’s Best Director award. Although ‘Rebirth’ had been nominated for five awards, Neither Qian Wu nor Shi Mingyu was awarded Best Screenwriter or Best Cinematographer. Now, only Chu Yi’s Best Supporting Actor and Song Ci’s Best Female Lead were left.

Chu Yi was in a good state for this nomination. He had been unknown for too long and had just signed with Sunshine Media. After a year and a half of filming, he had successfully been nominated for Best Supporting Actor twice and won Best Newcomer. The speed of his rise was already a sign that his future in the film industry could not be underestimated. Moreover, he had attended an award ceremony before, so he was more at ease than the last time.

He did not have many scenes this time. Although he acted very well, there were many times when he could not show more of his skills. So, he was prepared not to win the award. Compared to himself, he was actually more concerned about whether or not Song Ci could win.

Song Ci’s performance was very good. There had been several scenes where he stood not far away and watched. He felt that the person standing in front of him was not the familiar Song Ci but Chen Guihua, who had lost her thoughts and soul. He hoped Song Ci would win her nominated award. She had ended his winter and given him much hope and warmth. Without Song Ci, he would not have had the chance to sit here at the awards ceremony today and enjoy the glory of being nominated. Therefore, it was fine if he did not win the award, but Song Ci deserved it.

Fu Qinqin, who was desperately scrolling through the information about the International Film Festival award ceremony in front of her computer, thought so too. As she refreshed the page, she secretly prayed that Song Ci would win the award. If she could win in her own field, then should Song Ci not as well?

When Fu Momo came in to bring her some fruits, she saw Fu Qinqin frowning and looking worried. She blinked her eyes and asked her with her head tilted, “Sister, what’s wrong?”
