Hello Mr. King
The first award nominated for âFlying Skyâwas the Best Cinematography Award, and it won the award.
Immediately after, âFlying Skyânominated for Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Director, but none of them won.
Yun Xiangxiang actually knew very well that âFlying Skyâwas unlikely to win a particularly high award at the film festival of Xibai because it was a purely commercial film. However, the nature of the film festival of xibai was different from that of the film festival of Shuicheng and Kancheng.
The film festival paid more attention to the political aspect, which was why âThe kingâs planâwas selected.
Although the male and female leads had nothing to do with the subject matter, and Xue Yu and Yun Xiangxiangâs acting skills were indeed superb, they did not have much of an advantage compared to the top actors from all over the world. Even Xue Yu had two roles to play, if he could switch freely, he would have missed out on the Grand Award, let alone Yun Xiangxiang?
There was no hope for the previous awards, and naturally, there was no hope for the grand prize of Best Picture either.
However, Yun Xiangxiang and Xue Yu were not too disappointed. Their failure this time proved that they were not outstanding enough, so they would work harder next time.
Yun Xiangxiang looked at the nominated works seriously. She was completely convinced that she had lost. The clips that were taken were all filled with explosive acting skills.
Yun Xiangxiang did not win any big awards, so she did not return to China immediately like before. Instead, she took advantage of He Wei and Xue Yuâs presence to set up a banquet in the land of wine and flowers. She invited Xie Manliang over for a meal to thank him, a foreign director, she had taught them a lot of valuable experience during filming.
When they returned to China, it happened to be the last screening of âSoar to the sky,âand the result was both gratifying and a pity.
The gratifying part was that âSoar to the skyââs total box office earnings exceeded 2.8 billion yuan, breaking the previous record set by âCraftsmanship.â.
It was a pity that it did not break 3 billion yuan in one go.
Yun Xiangxiang was especially happy because she could split the profits. She had a considerable amount of income, which just happened to be invested in the new company.
When Yun Xiangxiang returned to the country, six people from Xu Moâs team were willing to apply for jobs at Yun Xiangxiangâs company.
The interview given by Song Mian was a plane ticket out of the country.
âWhere are you sending them?âYun Xiangxiang was a little surprised.
âIâm going to lower their spirits and let them meet some outsiders to train their abilities.âSong Mian smiled.
Yun Xiangxiang blinked her eyes and understood. âI wonât give you any trouble, Will I?â
âItâs something convenient. If they can meet the standard in three months, they will be qualified to enter your company.âThis was really convenient for song Mian and did not require any favors.
Since Yun Xiangxiang wanted to do it, as her fiancé and her husband who would become a full-time employee in five months, he naturally had to personally check on her.
âYouâve already told them?âThe plane tickets were all bought.
âI only hinted to Yang Qi.âThis was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Song Mian did not want some people to want to join because of these opportunities. It would depend on their choices first.
âThank you, Hubby.âYun Xiangxiang Kissed Song Mian.
In the past, she was embarrassed to call him that. After the last time, Yun Xiangxiang felt that as long as she took the first step, the rest would not be difficult.
Song Mian had put in so much effort, so Yun Xiangxiang could not refuse. After that, she searched for management talent, so she did not bother song Mian.
After she had hired herself, she looked for song Mian to check on her. While filming this scene, she was busy with the companyâs matters.
After joining the crew for half a month, Fei Ming, the male lead, was well-behaved. Other than the necessary interactions during filming, he did not go near Yun Xiangxiang. Yun Xiangxiang was happy and relaxed.
After sending Xu Mo and the rest away, the companyâs staff was almost settled. Yun Xiangxiang had nothing else to do besides filming.
She revised her graduation thesis again and again. She did not expect it to be outstanding and she did not want to disappoint her teacher.
Yun Xiangxiang decided to write her graduation thesis on her own and did not even intend to show it to Song Mian.
Yun Xiangxiang was in a good mood and spent every day happily. When she woke up one day, she received a text message.
It was from her little aunt. The gist of it was that her uncleâs sentence had been passed and he had been sentenced to two years and six months.
Her little auntâs tone was very unkind and told her that she had to settle it for her. Otherwise, she would make Yun Xiangxiang suffer.
Yun Xiangxiang did not care about her auntâs threat at all, and her mood was unaffected as she went to the production team.
âLetâs have dinner together tonight,âZhou Wei said as soon as he arrived at the production team.
âGot it. Iâve already prepared a birthday present for you.âToday was Zhou Weiâs birthday.
A production team, the producer, and some of the people in charge had already discussed about having dinner together, especially after the opening ceremony. Yun Xiangxiang had gone overseas and did not have the time to get together, so she took this opportunity to make up for it.
She had already reduced the scenes for today and ended at five in the afternoon. She directly took the crewâs car to the hotel that she had booked.
There were not many people. Only the production crewâs manager and the main creator sat in a private room. There was a total of one person.
Yun Xiangxiang paid special attention to Fei Ming. Although it was spring and it was almost march, the weather was still not hot.
Everyone had long sleeves and jackets. Fei Ming wore a shirt and a suit vest. The sleeves of his shirt were rolled up.
Even though the air conditioner was turned on in the private room, it should not be so hot.
However, some people were afraid of the heat. Yun Xiangxiang only took a few glances.
Just as she retracted her gaze, Fei Ming asked, âXiangxiang, do you want red wine or fruit juice?â
They didnât book a hotel like that. The private rooms had private service, and even the kitchen was a private room.
Fei Ming poured the wine himself, but in order to show his gentlemanly demeanor, he did all the work. The others were poured by him, so Yun Xiangxiang didnât seem to have any opinion about him. âFruit juice.â
It just so happened that Fei Ming poured fruit juice for the previous senior, who played Yun Xiangxiangâs mother-in-law in the film. He was holding a bottle of freshly squeezed fruit juice. Yun Xiangxiang didnât like red wine either.
Fei Ming picked up a glass and poured more than half a glass for Yun Xiangxiang. He placed it on the table and turned it in front of Yun Xiangxiang.
After that, he first asked the lady to finish pouring the juice before helping the man to pour the wine.
During the banquet, everyone raised their glasses a few times together. Yun Xiangxiang then raised her glass and gave Zhou Wei a toast.
After eating more than half of the meal, Yun Xiangxiang went to the bathroom. Everything was originally fine. Yun Xiangxiang had just finished going to the bathroom when her vision suddenly darkened and she almost lost her balance.
Her hands and feet started to feel weak. She immediately took out her phone from her bag and wanted to call song Qian, but she felt that the phone was very heavy. Her hand trembled so much that the phone fell out.
She did not dare to squat down to pick up the phone, afraid that she would not be able to stand up. She barely rushed out of the bathroom. When she reached the sink, she felt dizzy and could not hold on any longer. Soon, her consciousness was swallowed up.
Before she lost consciousness, Yun Xiangxiang could not understand how she had fallen into the trap!
