After leaving the event, Xiao He asked Lao Qi to take Xiao's mother back to her hotel to rest.
He and Liu Rulan sat in the van, discussing the current situation.
Those smear articles seem to have been designed to annoy Xiao He before he won the award, and then quickly retreat. So the negative publicity surrounding Xiao He has subsided, and the overall public opinion is still dominated by his fans. The top trending topics are mostly about Xiao He winning the Best Actor award.
However, the incident of "Xiao He buying the award" still left a mark on the minds of some people, and in many hidden places, a new group of Xiao He haters emerged.
However, Xiao He and his group didn't care about these haters.
When it comes to winning awards, the process is not important; only the result matters.
"No matter what, winning the double Best Actor award is our ultimate goal. As long as we can achieve it, the negative public opinion is not a problem."
Liu Rulan took the initiative to comfort Xiao He, "You should have understood this when you decided to run this award. Don't worry, once this wave of hype subsides, everyone will only remember your achievements."
The internet has a short memory; as long as Xiao He continues to produce excellent works, in a year or two, who will remember the current controversy?
Once you win the Best Actor award, that's it.
“Of course, I’m not an honest person.” Xiao He shrugged. “If I can take it, I will definitely take it. Pretending to be virtuous won’t really shut everyone up.”
It will definitely be difficult for Yu Xiu to win the Golden Flower Award. Even if his acting skills are enough to prove himself, various external factors are enough to make his winning the award highly controversial.
But so what?
He has the ability to take it, and he is confident that he will prove himself capable of it later.
The insults and doubts online are not that important.
“But this public opinion crisis is really strange.” Liu Rulan looked at Xiao He with a serious expression. “The ones who know my movements in Beijing are most likely my team in Beijing.”
However, they rarely participate in activities in Beijing. Their main social circle is still with Director Ning, and they do not have any conflicts of interest with other companies or teams in Beijing.
They say there's no love without a reason, but there's no hate without a reason either, right?
Xiao He raised an eyebrow: "How about I investigate?"
"No need, their investigation should be progressing quickly."
Sure enough, Liu Rulan's phone rang the next moment.
She answered the phone immediately.
A few minutes later, Liu Rulan hung up the phone and looked at Xiao He again: "It turns out that the team that made the move this time was from Beijing. Several teams made moves at the same time. I guess they thought you wanted to use Director Ning's influence to enter their circle, so some people got anxious."
If there aren't enough things in one circle, then naturally, outsiders will be excluded.
Moreover, Xiao He's achievements are indeed remarkable, so it's normal °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° for some people to be envious.
"However, I feel that most of these people are being used as pawns. No matter how anxious they are, they haven't yet formed an open conflict of interest with you."
Liu Rulan's words sounded somewhat strange.
Xiao He didn't just take their things from them right away, so why are they all so anxious?
They can actually do something so disgusting...
Xiao He frowned as he scrolled through the comments online, rubbing his temples in exasperation: "Why am I having such bad luck lately? I always seem to run into trouble online."
He just encountered Viker, and now this group from the Beijing circle has come. Is he trying to boost his performance at the end of the year because all his bad luck is coming up?
However, it might also be because he's become famous now, so whether he's criticized or praised, countless eyes are always watching him closely.
"Could it be that something went wrong with Director Yang Li?"
Xiao He suddenly remembered Ning Jiaqi's reminder to him before he left.
"You mean 'The Red Path to the Snowy Mountains'?" Liu Rulan narrowed her eyes. "Is someone trying to steal your role?"
Xiao He nodded: "Possibly."
"No, that shouldn't be the case."
After pondering for a moment, Liu Rulan shook her head and said to Xiao He with great regret, "If people in their circle wanted to participate in the script of'Snow Ridge Red Road,' it would be much easier for them than for you."
Although the reality is somewhat tragic, it is indeed so.
If any artist from Beijing's entertainment circle wanted to participate in director Yang Li's "Snowy Ridge Red Road," Xiao He wouldn't have been able to snag the opportunity at the awards ceremony; it would have been snapped up by others long ago. After all, they were all in the same circle, and resources and information flowed very quickly and rapidly, making it impossible for Xiao He to get a chance.
Moreover, Xiao He's role in "Snow Ridge Red Road" is really very small, not a particularly important top-tier resource. If the other party were to make a move on Xiao He because of such a resource, it would be too beneath them.
"Then it seems there must be another reason."
Xiao He stroked his chin.
"Forget it, there's no need to rush to think about this problem."
Liu Rulan took out her phone and took a picture of Xiao He holding the trophy. Then she said, "Why don't you post a Weibo to appease your fans? We can't let those people affect our upcoming marketing plans. We went to great lengths to get you the double Best Actor award. If we don't help you get a lot of traffic, I'll feel terrible."
Xiao He's lips twitched, but he didn't refuse, cooperating with Liu Rulan by making various expressions and gestures.
A few minutes later, Xiao He posted on Weibo.
【Ling Hui (actor - Xiao He): Thank you everyone for your continued support. I will continue to work hard in the future. 【Images】 *9】
The fans who were fighting against the haters online suddenly seemed to have found their backbone and gathered in the comments section.
【Congratulations, Brother Xiao!】
【The youngest double Best Actor in history! Well deserved! Congratulations to my brother Xiao!】
【Winning two Best Actor awards in one year, no wonder he's my brother Xiao!】
【Haha, from now on we should call him Emperor Xiao.】
【Does anyone actually call Xiao Yingdi (the Actor) in real life? (A sincere question)】
【It's alright, the older folks all call Xiao He "Brother Xiao," so it seems normal to address him differently.】
【Pfft, I just couldn't hold it in anymore, hahaha.】
While Xiao He was celebrating on Weibo, Xiao He's fans also started their own celebrations. Those with money contributed money, and those with people contributed their time and effort. The internet was filled with laughter and joy, making it quite lively.
At the same time, Xiao Zhao Liu Bu Liu on Bilibili also posted a video he had prepared in advance on the Internet to celebrate Xiao He winning the double Best Actor award in his own way. As soon as the video was uploaded, it instantly received a lot of likes and directly topped the Bilibili hot list!
This video is a mashup of all of Xiao He's roles to date, edited by Xiao Zhao Liu Bu Liu.
From the stunning Mu Ze at first sight to the globally acclaimed Shu Yuxiu, Xiao He only took three years.
But what he left the audience with were more than a dozen memorable roles!
He is the terrifying Zhu Laosan, the bloodthirsty Shen Jue, the universally hated Meng Zetian, the mysterious Xu Ning, the ruthless Mo Tun, the handsome white-haired hacker, the seemingly innocent but actually cunning Yin Qi, the introspective detective with multiple personalities, the pitiful Lin Qingfeng, and the righteous yet wicked Song Chenye...
These characters are multifaceted and three-dimensional; they are Xiao He, yet they are no longer Xiao He.
They broke away from Xiao He, giving birth to independent souls, and are individuals beloved and unforgettable by countless viewers.
Similarly, Xiao He also successfully climbed the ladder to become a double Best Actor!
In the video, they can see that young man, whose acting skills were still somewhat immature, gradually grow into a seasoned actor with superb acting skills.
The final scene shows Xiao He repeatedly walking the red carpet and stepping onto the stage to accept awards.
The young man, with his upright posture and handsome face, looked up at the camera, his eyes filled with a deep starlight, calmly illuminating the crowd below the stage.
At that moment, it felt as if they had truly accompanied Xiao He all the way to this point—
The barrage of comments paused for a moment, then began to erupt again.
【Xiao He truly deserves this title!!!】
