Chapter 1290: Sucking Up
Cris and Shi Xiaoya chatted for a while before people started streaming in after walking the red carpet.
Lu Man came in a little later than both Wang Juhuai and Xia Qingwei.
Han Zhuoli and Han Zhuoling were the last to walk in.
Usually, those whose status was higher were placed at the last.
When Lu Man was walking on the red carpet, she even saw Qiao Luna and Jiang Yuhan pitting themselves against each other.
Neither of them wanted to walk the red carpet before the other did. Both of their cars stopped outside the red carpet and both refused to get off first, making the organizers extremely anxious.
In the end, no matter how one talked about it, both of them could be considered to have walked the red carpet together.
However, even when they were walking, both of them were still competing with each other.
Neither of them wanted to walk off first and just kept standing on the red carpet and posing for photos with the reporters and waving to their fans.
Both of them had really stayed on for too long to the point that the reporters had had enough of taking photos of them.
In the end, the security had to escort them off the red carpet.
Tang Zi also brought people over. After he was done taking photos, he entered the venue.
Before the awards ceremony started, everyone gathered together to chat and Tang Zi hurriedly came over to find Lu Man.
“Man Man.” Tang Zi walked over and said, “Let me tell you, Jiang Yuhan and Qiao Luna were being such a joke just now.”
Tang Zi told Lu Man all about how Jiang Yuhan and Qiao Luna were fighting over the red carpet.
“Then why are you still chatting with me? Quick, go and publish an article on this!” Lu Man ushered him as she laughed.
“Ah?” Tang Zi had not reacted to what she just said.
“What’s the point of just taking photos of them on the red carpet?” Lu Man explained, “There have always been all kinds of eye-catching fights on the red carpet. These two finally came about, you should quickly write an article about them fighting over the red carpet. If not, do you want other people to do it before you do?”
Tang Zi finally reacted and quickly said, “Oh my. I better go and do it now. Bye.”
After saying that, Tang Zi hurried off.
Lu Man saw Shi Xiaoya and Cris and was about to go and chat with them when she saw Liang Chengbing walk over.
Liang Chengbing sat one row in front of Lu Man. When he saw that Lu Man was here as well, he coldly averted his gaze.
He acted as if he had not seen her and turned to start small talk with other people.
“Director Liang, you must have been nominated for quite a few awards, right?” Zhang Lun’s disciple, Wang Shuyi, had walked over and praised Liang Chengbing, saying, “Best Director, Best Film, Best Actor and Best Actress, Best Supporting Male and Female Leads. I feel like you have nominations in all of them! This will break the record for the number of nominations! This is considered six nominations, right?”
Liang Chengbing purposely threw a look at Lu Man and Lu Man raised her eyebrow.
He was still thinking about her on this.
Liang Chengbing purposely pretended to be humble and waved him off. He laughed and said, “It’s hard to say, hard to say. They didn’t publish the nominee list, so everything is not confirmed. Anyway, there are so many outstanding films this time. Like your teacher, Director Zhang, his films can very possibly snag many of the big awards!”
Who could say whether Liang Chengbing saw Zhang Lun walking over first? His words came right on time to suck up to Zhang Lun.
Zhang Lun was very flattered and said, “Aye, you know how terrible this film of mine is. Don’t say it out loud and make a joke of me to others.”
Zhang Lun also saw Lu Man who was sitting a row behind Liang Chengbing and coldly glanced over her.
Was she not the mastermind responsible for his film becoming a huge flop?
Liang Chengbing smiled faintly. “The judgment for the awards for this film festival is not based on box office sales alone. It is based on the quality of the film itself. Or else, wouldn’t those smaller-scale films be unable to see the day at all?
“Anyway, in my opinion, Director Zhang, your film is especially good. The meaning behind it runs deep, and the depth of the film is not something that the average person can understand,” Liang Chengbing said.
