Chapter 562: The Biggest Winner

The movie “Primitive” showed the most primitive expressions of humans, animals, and even nature, including all aspects.

Yun Xiangxiang would also discuss it with Lu Jin in a low voice when she watched it. In fact, she didn’t really understand what it was about, but Lu Jin was able to point it out.

By the time this segment ended, two-thirds of the award ceremony had already passed, and the most exciting main segment was next.

It was also at this time that Yun Xiangxiang realized that there were no awards for Best Supporting Actress at the Xibai Film Festival. She had not paid much attention to these things in the past.

The best films were also divided into gold and silver awards. There were two types of films, Best Feature Film and Best Short Film. The best actress and movie superstar were both Silver Awards.

The gold awards were only given to the best film and Lifetime Achievement Awards. There were no awards for Best Cinematography or Best Costume Design.

The first award was for Outstanding Artistic Achievement, which was won by a local director.

The second award was for Best Film Music. Yun Xiangxiang was nominated for “First Love.”

Although the background was mainly music, the scene was very romantic.

When the short film was over, Yun Xiangxiang held her breath and listened attentively to the announcement.

“Congratulations to “First Love,” which gained approval of romance lovers all over the world!”

Yun Xiangxiang was very happy. Although this award had nothing to do with her and was the credit of the background music producer, she was naturally honored to be involved in this film.

‘First Love’ was known as ‘the most romantic movie,’ but these words were always in quotation marks.

If not for the latter part, the romance of ‘first love’ could really stir up the hearts of all women. They would want to throw themselves into the arms of a relationship and have a romantic scene to their heart’s content.

Next was the best actor. “The King’s Plan” was undoubtedly shortlisted. Yun Xiangxiang was a little surprised that “First Love” was not shortlisted. She felt that the acting skills of the male actors could really be said to be at the pinnacle of perfection.

Yun Xiangxiang really hoped that Lu Jin would be able to win the best actor award. However, her first prayer failed, and the winner of the award was an American actor, who was a Hollywood movie superstar.

To be honest, when the clip was played, the actor’s acting skills were impeccable.

Then, there was the Best Actress award. Yun Xiangxiang felt that this award had nothing to do with her, even though she had debuted for almost four years and desperately needed a prestigious Best Actress award to prove herself.

However, there was not much room for her to perform in “The King’s Plan”and “First Love.”

As expected, “The King’s Plan” was not nominated, and “First Love” was not nominated, either. Even if “First Love” was nominated, she would not be the female lead.

Next was the best director award. Yun Xiangxiang looked at Wu Zhao tidying up his clothes and could not help but smile. “Uncle Wu, Brother Jin and I did not put in any effort. You have to put in some effort.”

“The Internet says that you have a gold tongue. I’ll lend you some good words.” Wu Zhao actually valued this award very much.

He had won the best director award at several major international film festivals. Other than the two highest-ranked directors, he had yet to squeeze in. He was only short of the Best Director award at the Xibai Film Festival.

This time, the nominees were not only Wu Zhao, but also Milles.

“The best director award goes to Mr. Wu from China!”

When the results were publicized, Yun Xiangxiang and Lu Jin both applauded vigorously.

Wu Zhao was also extremely happy. He stood up with a smile on his face and walked onto the podium to receive the award. He did not forget to praise Yun Xiangxiang, saying that he originally did not have confidence, but his female lead said that he would definitely be able to get it. As expected, he got it.

This was the second time that the awards ceremony had been focused on by Yun Xiangxiang. She could only smile modestly.

Next, the Grand Jury Prize was taken away by a film from Italy, followed by the Silver Award for the Best Film.

The finalists unexpectedly included “The King’s Plan,” which won the Silver Award for the Best Film at last year’s film festival in Shuicheng.

If it won another Best Film this time, then its meaning would be extraordinary.

“The King’s Plan” did not disappoint Yun Xiangxiang. It won the Best Film award once again.

However, the award of the Xibai Film Festival was only given to the director. Yun Xiangxiang and Lu Jin did not follow.

“The King’s Plan” was considered a big winner. There were not many awards to begin with. Three out of two, Yun Xiangxiang and Lu Jin were also proud.

Lu Jin and Yun Xiangxiang had no part in the Best Short Film award. Their films were all feature films.

After the silver award was given out, there were three final gold awards. The first was the Lifetime Achievement Award, which was given to a big director in the United States.

The second was the Best Short Film Gold Award, which was given out to a short film in the country.

The last was the most exciting time. The highest award was the Best Film Gold Award. What surprised Yun Xiangxiang was the mention of “First Love”!

“If ‘First Love’ wins the award, you will become the biggest winner today,” Lu Jin said in a low voice.

It was unprecedented for two Best Films to participate at the same time and play the most important role. Even if Yun Xiangxiang didn’t win a single one today, she would still be the one who gained the most.

“I now announce that the film that won the Best Film is…” The awarding guest deliberately dragged out his voice. The spotlight swept over the nominees of the film’s main creative team, making everyone nervous. After the suspense, the announcer finally said, “First Love!”

For a moment, the entire venue was in an uproar. Everyone stood up and applauded. Milles walked up to the award stage proudly.

“I’m really happy to be able to stand here and receive the highest honor. I have to thank…” Milles was a little excited. He thanked everyone who should be thanked and finally said, “Finally, I want to thank someone special.”

After saying that, he paused and looked at Yun Xiangxiang below the stage. The spotlight followed his gaze and fell on Yun Xiangxiang.

“When I got this script, I could choose several excellent actors to interpret all the roles. But only Amy, the soul role, can be perfectly portrayed in my heart. She is—Yun Xiangxiang.”

The spotlight paused on Yun Xiangxiang for more than ten seconds before returning to Milles. “She has given this film the soul. I look forward to working with her next time.”

After the film festival ended, Lu Jin and Yun Xiangxiang left together. They had been together throughout the entire journey. However, Yun Xiangxiang was different. Sitting in the car, Lu Jin could not help but exclaim, “You are really the killer of the Best Actress.”

At the last film festival in Shuicheng, because of Joseph’s words, the best actress, who had won the female lead, had her limelight stolen by Yun Xiangxiang.

This time, at the film festival, Yun Xiangxiang had returned empty-handed, but so what?

The participants of the two best films and the directors of the two best films were highly recognized. Even the child who had won a big award had to specifically mention her when they received the awards.

It was clear how popular she was. This year, she was going to take away the space and attention of the best actress.

Wasn’t she the killer of the best actress?
