Chapter 125: Win-Win?
Backstage at the awards ceremony.
In a lounge, Xu Qingling looked forward to the mirror and touched up her makeup.
Qi Qingxi next to him, holding his chin, stared intently.
"Why are you looking at me like this?" Xu Qingling put away the makeup box and said casually: "The dinner party is about to start, why don't you leave?"
Qi Qingxi's tone was resentful, "Ningning, you don't love me anymore." ”
“...... Speak well. ”
Xu Qinglime's beautiful eyes were light and white, and she was a little helpless.
Qi Qingxi immediately asked, "Then tell me, what's going on with singing and dancing?"
"Singing and dancing is singing and dancing, what else can it do?" Xu Qingling got up and stood up, "Can you go?"
"Let's go. ”
Qi Qingxi hurriedly followed, holding Xu Qinglime's arm, and pouted: "I know you must have something to hide from me......"
Xu Qinglime didn't respond to her, her steps were not fast, and she was leisurely and idle.
Qi Qingxi saw it, wrinkled his nose and said, "Are you waiting for that person?"
"Which one?"
Xu Qinglime's expression was calm.
"The guy who snatched my award for Best Animated Short Film. As soon as he mentioned it, Qi Qingxi couldn't help but get angry, and his teeth were about to be crushed.
"What to rob, this is strength. ”
Xu Qinglime naturally retorted, "The judges unanimously decided that his works have high intentions and stronger ideological artistry, so they will award him with awards." ”
"That's when the judges are blind. ”
Qi Qingxi complained directly, "A work with such a rough painting style can even win an award, there must be a shady scene." ”
"Have you seen it?" Xu Qinglime's eyes flickered.
“...... Didn't look at it. ”
Qi Qingxi will definitely not admit it.
Xu Qinglime smiled, and Slender Foot suddenly stopped.
I saw that at this time, at the door, Zhou Mu's figure appeared.
"What is he doing here?" Qi Qingxi was stunned, his face changed suddenly, "Ling Ning, do you want to take him to the banquet?"
"Isn't it okay?" Xu Qingling smiled lightly, "The people of my company have won awards again, don't they have the qualifications to go to the banquet?"
"......" Qi Qingxi was speechless.
"Sister Qing, Teacher Qi. ”
Zhou Mu walked over, with a calm expression, which made Qi Qingxi's teeth itch even more.
But she couldn't turn her face, after all, she was also weak-hearted, and she didn't dare to let Xu Qinglime know that she had talked to Zhou Mu and then was slapped in the face.
"Congratulations on your award. Xu Qinglime smiled.
"Tongxi, you're a Grand Slam. ”
Zhou Mu said sincerely: "It should be history." ”
"It's not the same. ”
Xu Qinglime restrained her smile, and then shook her head again, "Forget it, don't mention this." The banquet is almost over, let's go. ”
"Wait......"
Zhou Mu took out the invitation letter and gave it back to Xu Qinglime, "I'm not going." ”
"Why?"
Xu Qinglime was stunned and frowned.
Qi Qingxi was surprised and took the opportunity to provoke, "Why, people didn't invite you, Ning Ning took you there, your self-esteem can't stand it, so you simply refuse, to show your pride?"
"It's not. ”
Zhou Mu smiled, looked at Xu Qinglime and explained, "I, Yu Nian, and Cui Ji completed the short film together, and we will celebrate together after making an appointment to win the award......."
"Where are you going?"
Xu Qinglime immediately said, "Count me in." ”
Huh?
Qi Qingxi was stunned, "Ling Ning, that banquet ......"
"The banquet is boring. ”
Xu Qingling interrupted: "Going is nothing more than all kinds of chats, unnutritious entertainment, it doesn't matter if you go for a year." ”
"Yes, then I won't go either. ”
Qi Qingxi thought so, and then hugged Xu Qingling's arm affectionately, glared at Zhou Mu vaguely, and then said with a smile: "Do you mind if there is one more person in your party?"
"Don't mind, of course don't. ”
Caught off guard, Cui Ji flashed out and said in ecstasy: "The two goddesses appreciate their faces, this is our honor." ”
After that, he turned around and shouted, "Lao Yu, Lao Yu, call, change to a large box, and replace the drinks with drinks......"
Being entangled by Qi Qingxi, Xu Qingling couldn't break free, she smiled helplessly, and reminded: "Zhou Mu, call Sister Hong and them too." ”
"Understood. ”
Zhou Mu nodded and went out to arrange the vehicle.
Soon after, the group left the Starlight Theater and went to a mountain villa in the suburbs, just in the opposite direction of the celebrity banquet.
That is, before, Zhou Mu and Yu Nian drank tea together.
Two cars, front and back.
They were still on the way, and in a high-end club in the city, a grand and gorgeous banquet had already begun to be held.
Champagne, red wine, flowers, and ribbons are intertwined in the air.
Well-dressed directors, stars, producers, entertainment company owners, big-name agents, including the elite of the entire industry, gathered in the splendid hall.
Tall and handsome waiters, hot bunny girls, holding cups of colorful and fragrant drinks, shuttled through the crowd.
In the corner of the golden hall, a group of bands dressed in tuxedos, meticulously combed hair, and shiny leather shoes played passionately at the scene.
Beautiful music, jumping and rippling in the air.
It's a pity that at this moment, not many people are intoxicated with music. Most of the people held red wine and champagne, and they were in groups of three or five, talking and laughing. There were also some men and women who walked to the dance floor, hugged each other, and shook and rubbed against each other to the beat of the melody.
If there is a spark.
The first floor, the second floor, countless well-soundproofed rooms that solve everything.
It's a party with no strings or strings.
It's all up to you.
The premise is that you are willing to do it.
Of course, if you don't like a noisy environment, there are also lounges next to the hall, and all kinds of leisure and entertainment gadgets are available.
For example, now, several bigwigs in the industry are gathered in an elegant room.
Completely retro furniture, full of antique touches.
A light of incense, smoke curling, but no fire.
A few middle-aged men, fat or thin, dressed in low-key and sophisticated clothes, sat scattered on the sofa, cutting special cigars that were handmade and said to be worth tens of thousands of dollars each.
Light the fire and burn.
Take a puff and squirt.
Fine white smoke mixes with incense to create a mellow scent.
After enjoying a moment, they began to chat, the topic was marginal and meaningful.
"Xu Qinglime didn't seem to come. ”
"Grand Slam winners, the highest moments, didn't come. ”
"Got the calculation?"
"There is no calculation, it is nothing more than to take advantage of the situation and push the boat along the river. ”
"The results of the competition. ”
"For her, it's pie in the world. ”
"Haha......"
A group of people chuckled.
Pie?
Maybe.
Sometimes, though, pies can also be poison.
How to look at it specifically, idealism.
Next door.
The same lounge.
Zhuang Yan was naked, lying on Mo Huaixuan's chest, drawing circles with her fingertips.
"I'm not reconciled. ”
Suddenly, she raised her head suddenly, her eyes were fierce, like a she-wolf, "Why do you want to divide the honor that belongs to me in half?"
Mo Huaixuan calmly analyzed: "The director of redemption, that is the academic school of Gen Hongmiaozheng, his films are of high quality, and the depth of thought is not bad. As is customary, best director or best picture, choose one of the two, and he will definitely take one. ”
"I want to be on top and win the best director. Retrograde Life is the best film that sells international rights, so we are natural allies and can cooperate ......"
"What's the matter with me?" Zhuang Yan interrupted, "Why are you touching my things?"
Woman......
Mo Huaixuan sat up and lit a cigarette, "Share the cake, we eat other people's, we must compensate, this is the rule of the game." ”
Zhuang Yan sneered, "The result of compensation is to let Xu Qinglime take the actress?"
"Yes. ”
Mo Huaixuan nodded and said: "Without the best picture, you can't get the best director, but after letting Xu Qingling win the grand slam film, the director of redemption is Bole who sent her to the altar." ”
"As long as public opinion is properly guided, this director is the uncrowned king, the real best director. He got vanity, I got benefits, and everyone won together. ”
"What about me?"
Zhuang Yan was angry, "What did I get?"
"You have to admit that Xu Qinglime's popularity is better than yours, and in the final internal voting session, she has two more votes than you. The double yolk egg is still the result of my hard work. ”
Mo Huaixuan smiled, snuffed out the cigarette butt, turned around and hugged Zhuang Yan, and blew in her ear, "Besides, you got me, the wife of the best director, isn't this honor enough?"
"Humph!"
Zhuang Yan's eyes were like silk, and her anger disappeared.
Maybe she's not angry at all.
It's just acting.
Does Mo Huaixuan know?
Hard.
As a director, how can you not understand drama.
He is also acting, and it is rare to be confused.
It doesn't matter if what is said is true or not.
The point is that the benefits are in hand......
