Chapter 110 Winning the Prize
She felt very uncomfortable wearing the dress. After hearing Yang Hao's reminder, Zhao Liying realized that she should change her clothes. So she turned around and smiled sweetly at Yang Hao, then followed the assistant who was waiting on the side to walk towards the nanny car.

The official award ceremony of the National Drama Festival will begin soon.

Yang Hao was arranged to sit at the edge of the second row. Considering Yang Hao's new qualifications, it was reasonable for him to sit here.

But are you serious, organizer?
Nazha on the left, Zhao Liying on the right, you are causing trouble.

One monk has water to drink, two monks carry water to drink, and three monks have no water to drink. Organizer, have you heard of this story?
Yang Hao sat between the two beauties and had to behave himself, not daring to move at all.

The National Drama Festival was on a large scale and many celebrities attended. The more famous ones included Lin Zhiying, Wu Qilong, Wen Zhang, Liu Xiaoqing, Zhong Hanliang, Tangtang, Liu Tao, etc.

Liu Xiaoqing should be 61 now, she is old enough to be his grandmother. I don’t know if it’s because she is too far away and I can’t see her clearly, or because her makeup is too heavy, but Yang Hao actually finds her quite pretty.

Yang Hao was a little surprised that he saw Wu Qilong but not Liu Shishi.

I have always been craving for Liu Shishi. I thought I could meet her at the National Drama Festival, but I didn't expect that only Wu Qilong came.

The show started with a group of stars singing to warm up the National Opera Festival, and then the hosts, Yang Lan, Dou Wentao, Zhou Qun and others came on stage.

On the stage, several hosts teased the actors based on this year's TV series, and the director also gave close-up shots of the actors one by one.

Only then came the important part of the National Drama Festival - the awards ceremony.

The award ceremony began with Fan Ming, the actor who played Constable Xing in "Wulin Waijiao", appearing on stage, accompanied by the beautiful actress Yu Mingjia.

You may not know Yu Mingjia, but I believe everyone should have some impression of her role as Liu Bang's widow Cao in "Legend of Chu and Han". She was a very charming woman.

Probably to warm up the audience, the first award of the National Drama Festival is the Audience’s Favorite New Actress of 2013, which is a very important award.

As the TV drama images scrolled on the big screen of the National Drama Festival, the selected actresses included Mao Lingling's "Lanling King", Zeng Mihuizi's "Hot Mom", Zhao Liying's "Legend of Lu Zhen", and Wan Qian's "I Am a Special Forces Soldier: Fire Phoenix".

As the big screen scrolled and TV drama scenes flashed one by one, Zhao Liying, who was sitting next to Yang Hao, became more and more nervous.

When the wonderful clips of "Legend of Lu Zhen" appeared on the big screen, Zhao Liying clenched her hands tightly on her knees.

"Don't be nervous, you will definitely win the prize," Yang Hao turned his head and whispered into Zhao Liying's earrings.

Yang Hao knew that in her previous life, Zhao Liying won the Best New Actress Award at the National Drama Festival for her role in "Legend of Lu Zhen", which made her come to prominence in the entertainment industry.

For ordinary people, they will watch and follow TV series, but few people pay attention to award ceremonies, and many of them don’t even care who wins the awards.

If it weren’t for the celebrity artists’ companies buying announcements and hyping the event, most people wouldn’t even know who won the award.

The popularity of award ceremonies is actually not that high, but why do celebrities still flock to various awards?

That’s because the greatest significance of this kind of award ceremony is not for ordinary people to see, but for people in the circle to see.

There are so many TV series and movies in China every year, how many directors and producers will actually watch them?
Through what channels do they learn about the new rising stars in the entertainment industry?
That is the award ceremony, especially the more authoritative award ceremony in the circle. This award ceremony is the focus of directors and producers.

For an artist to win an award, it is either because he is very popular, has excellent acting skills, or has strong capital and financial support. No matter which one, such an artist is a good partner.

The award ceremony is a good screening mechanism, which saves directors and producers a lot of effort.

The winner of the 2013 Audience Favorite New Actress Award was announced by Yu Mingjia.

Yu Mingjia, who was wearing a bright red dress, was seen on the stage saying: "Let me tell you a little secret. This actress played the same role as me in "Golden Wedding" six or seven years ago. She played my childhood, but we have never met. I feel very honored to be able to see the elegance of the little sister on the stage of the National Opera Festival this time."

When Zhao Liying heard Yu Mingjia say this on the stage, her expression became visibly relaxed, probably because she knew she had won the award.

"Liying, did you play the same role with Yu Mingjia in "Golden Wedding"? " Yang Hao asked curiously.

"Well, I played the young Tong Duoduo, a minor role with not many scenes." Zhao Liying already knew that she had won the award. Her tone was a little excited and her voice trembled.

Hearing Zhao Liying's affirmative reply, Yang Hao felt his teeth aching. That was six or seven years ago, and Zhao Liying is only 23 years old now.

By this calculation, wouldn't Zhao Liying be only sixteen years old when she played a supporting role in "Golden Wedding"?
Suddenly Yang Hao felt a little pity for this little girl with a round face and a thin figure. What kind of power allowed her to play supporting roles in major film crews at the age of 16, not yet an adult?

"It will be better in the future!" Yang Hao whispered in Zhao Liying's ear.

Zhao Liying glanced at Yang Hao. As she was experienced, she already understood what Yang Hao wanted to express. She nodded with some emotion and whispered with a nasal tone, "Yeah!"

Then Yang Hao and Zhao Liying smiled at each other.

"The winner of Audience's Favorite New Actress of 2013 is Zhao Liying."

As Yu Mingjia spoke, encouraging applause broke out from the audience, and some fans even held up Zhao Liying's fluorescent cheering signs to celebrate.

When Zhao Liying heard Yu Mingjia announce the result, she quickly walked to the stage, took the trophy, hugged him, and then shook hands with Teacher Fan Ming.

"First of all, I would like to thank Anhui Satellite TV and the organizing committee of the 2013 National Drama Festival for their recognition of me. Then I would like to thank my boss Yang Hao. It was he who gave me the opportunity to play Lu Zhen, which made more people notice me. Finally, I wish you all a happy new year. Thank you all."

Yang Hao was under the stage, looking at Zhao Liying, who was wearing a white mid-length skirt and high heels, and was giving a speech on the stage with ease.

Yang Hao knew that from now on, Zhao Liying would take one step forward every year and start her own era.

Zhao Liying is the last one among the 85 flowers to become famous, and also the one with the greatest achievements.

The trophy for the National Opera Festival is a little golden man.

Seeing Zhao Liying walking back to her seat, Nazha glanced at the little golden man in her arms and an envious look appeared on her face.

"Boss, the 2013 Best Popular Actor Award will be announced soon. Are you nervous?" Zhao Liying was in a very happy mood and said with a smile in Yang Hao's ear.
