A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 1244: Chapter 1244: Doesn’t Remember Who She Is

On the following day, the film festival opened, and everyone in the crew was dressed to the nines. Mu Yan was wearing a custom gown from Brand X, holding a clutch, and followed behind Li Yushen and the others to enter the venue.

This time, there was no need for a male companion on the red carpet, so she walked alone. The media outside were clicking their cameras incessantly, and she rarely felt unsettled. Of course, she wasn’t there to make a splash either, so she didn’t linger much on the red carpet before moving on.

When she finished signing at the signature wall and turned around, she saw a domestic actress who was supposed to walk ahead of her arriving fashionably late, seemingly still savoring the moment.

Of course, such a large film festival has always been a prime spot for certain actresses to ride the coattails of fame.

That actress saw Mu Yan and smiled to greet her, "Mu Yan, what a coincidence, long time no see."

"Long time no see." Mu Yan nodded slightly. She felt the actress looked familiar, but she couldn’t recall her name at the moment.

She was embarrassed to ask, so she just said, "I’ll head off first then, see you around."

Ren Yao watched Mu Yan leave with a slightly stiff expression. So what if she acted in Chen Zhou’s movie or got nominated at this film festival? Look at her being so arrogant, not even a bit of courtesy when seeing a senior.

After all, she’s been in the industry for many more years, she surely deserves to be called "sister."

Ren Yao glanced at the heavily made-up stars walking by, then looked at her own casual outfit, gaining a bit more confidence.

She had lingered on the red carpet for quite a while. She’s confident she could earn the title of the most beautiful star on the red carpet and is sure to make a splash once she returns home.

The film festival lasts twelve days, and with the nomination, Mu Yan and the others weren’t just there for the red carpet.

Of course, what she didn’t know was that the red carpet segment was broadcasted live back home, and her fans nearly teased her to madness.

"If I didn’t know this was a film festival, I would have thought Yan Bao was being chased by a tiger [laughing with tears]."

"I always thought I was good at wearing high heels, but watching Yan Bao striding effortlessly on the red carpet in ten-centimeter stilettos, I admit defeat and salute."

"Yan Bao, can you take this seriously? This is the red carpet; you’re supposed to pose. Can’t you learn from those red carpet staples?"

"I always felt Mu Yan was genuine and unpretentious. This video really puts those carpet-crashing actresses without works to shame."

"The one above talking as if Mu Yan is bound to win an award; I reckon she’s probably afraid she won’t get it."

"What do you mean by that? You’re making it sound like Mu Yan got into the Best Actress nomination through connections. Can you stop bashing without a brain?"

...

Mu Yan wasn’t paying much attention to the buzz back home. These days, she followed the activities of the film festival. During this time, she also appreciated many excellent works. Of course, after "The Best Time" screening, an international director directly contacted her, hoping she would be the lead actress in his next film.

Song Cheng’an accompanied her on this trip, knowing that Mu Yan had no plans to film for the time being. However, he didn’t immediately decline the offer.

An actor who wants to go further cannot remain stagnant; they need to embrace more cultures and ensure more people know them, which means they must go global.

Countless actors are fighting to get into Hollywood, but how many succeed? Among those who do make it, how many can land lead roles?

However, those people all know to seize opportunities.

The day before the award ceremony, Jiang Jingheng arrived.
