Entertainment: I just want to be the boss behind the scenes

Chapter 109 A quick look to show respect
Similar to most award ceremonies, important awards such as "Best Newcomer" and "Best Actor/Actress" are usually given at the beginning and the end, with smaller awards interspersed between various stage performances.

It can be seen that the organizers put some thought into attracting the audience's attention. In addition to arranging several popular actors to warm up the audience, they also arranged a lot of "fancy" segments.

For example, they urged Liu Shishi to get married on the spot, asked several leading actors of "Gu Jian Qi Tan" to perform together, and the three members of "Xian Jian" performed on the same stage after many years.

However, fans are still very realistic. When their favorite stars come on stage, they cheer and shout. When it is someone else's turn, they just clap politely, making the atmosphere on the scene intermittent.

"When will our awards be given?" Looking at the people coming and going on the stage and below, Li Qin moved closer to Meng Bai and asked in a low voice.

At first, the girl was very "cold" and said that she would sit alone, but unfortunately she couldn't withstand Meng Bai's moral blackmail that "Teacher Li looks down on our small web drama now that he has become a big star", and she had no choice but to sit with him.

"I don't know. The flowchart is too long and I'm too lazy to read it." Meng Bai said confidently, "It's you who's presenting the award anyway. Someone from the organizer will definitely come to remind you."

Li Qin also reacted, yes, she was the one who presented the award. When the staff came to find her, it meant that it was their turn next.

"By the way, I have always been curious about a question." Meng Bai glanced at Li Qin: "You actresses are wearing so little, don't you feel cold?"

Unlike the male guests who were dressed in full suits, the female artists were mostly wearing off-shoulder tube-top dresses. Some of them wore custom-made dresses, with large blank areas on their backs and waists, which made me feel cold.

In comparison, Li Qin's outfit today was quite conservative. She was wearing a black and white striped halter dress, and her straight light brown hair hung down from both sides of her body, covering the skin on her shoulders.

Although the chest is also a tube top design, considering the girl's mediocre talent, it can be said that it is fully covered.

"It's cold, but there's nothing we can do. Everyone else is wearing long evening gowns, and I can't go on stage in a down jacket." Li Qin said firmly, "It's actually not that bad today. There's no outdoor red carpet signing session, and the ceremony is all indoors, so it's not that cold. Besides, we have props..."

As she spoke, Li Qin pulled the hem of her skirt in front of her chest and said, "Yes, you can stick a warm baby inside your clothes."

Meng Bai looked down and saw that there was indeed a white heating sticker on the girl's chest below the straps of her skirt.

However, Meng Bai's eyes flickered. Because of the height difference, from his angle, he could just see Li Qin's chest.

It would be fine if the skirt was sticking to her skin like before, but the girl was pulling the edge outwards, and all that could be seen was a large area of fair and delicate skin and the faintly visible shallow cleavage.

“Generally, stick one piece on the front and back, and then two pieces on the waist, and the temperature can be basically guaranteed…” Li Qin obviously did not realize that she had been exposed to the sight of some “perverted people”, and was still explaining her own “little tricks for keeping warm”.

However, Meng Bai was not a novice who had never been with a woman, so after taking a quick look as a sign of respect, he looked away.

Having said that, compared with Qin Lan's "broad depth", this little girl's "slight ups and downs" are really nothing to see.

Thinking of Qin Lan, Meng Bai sighed inwardly. Originally, he had a rare free time during this period, and wanted to have a "friendly match" with this young lady. But she said that she was busy rehearsing the program for the Spring Festival Gala and had no energy to "join the fight".

They chatted casually like this until more than an hour after the show started, when a staff member finally ran up to Li Qin and informed her to go backstage to prepare for the award ceremony.

"See you on stage later." Li Qin stood up, said hello to Meng Bai and the others, and hurriedly left with the staff. Meng Bai took a deep breath, took out the two pages of "acceptance speech" he had prepared from his pocket, and planned to familiarize himself with them. He turned around and saw Zhang Ruoyun sitting on the other side, "By the way, Lao Zhang, I remember you seem to have another personal award today?"

"Yes, one called the 'Excellence Award'." Zhang Ruoyun nodded.

"Are you ready to go on stage and give your speech?"

"Alas, there's nothing much to prepare for this kind of speech. Just thank the crew, thank the audience, thank the organizer, and finally say that you'll continue to work hard, and that's about it." Zhang Ruoyun said in a relaxed manner: "It's not a particularly important award, and no one will listen if I talk too much."

After saying that, he looked at Meng Bai: "Why, did you prepare it specially?"

"What's there to prepare? Just go up and perform on the spot." Meng Bai calmly put the "speech" in his hand back into his pocket and said casually, "When you win Feitian or Baiyulan, it will be worth preparing."

"You can't say that." Wu Bai continued, "This is the first time that a formal film and television ceremony has set up awards for online dramas. This is also the first time in history, and it is worth commemorating."

As they were talking, the music suddenly stopped. On the stage, Dou Wentao, the host of this year's National Opera Festival, said in a loud voice: "The next two awards to be presented are very special. They are also the first awards added in the history of our National Opera Festival. Let us welcome the presenters Shang Wenjie and Li Qin."

As the music started, Li Qin and her partner walked from behind the scenes to the center of the stage.

"Hello everyone, I'm Li Qin. This is actually my first time standing on the stage of the National Ceremony as an award presenter. I'm still a little nervous..."

On the stage, Li Qin spoke her introduction in a graceful and elegant manner with a faint smile on her face. She looked like a cool goddess, which was quite different from her lively personality in private.

Because there was no nomination process, the awards ceremony was held very quickly. After a few brief introductions, the list of winners was announced directly.

"Congratulations to the online drama Soul Ferry for winning the 'Most Popular Online Drama of the Year' award!"

"Congratulations to the web series "Never Expected" for winning the 'Best Web Series of the Year' award!"

"Let's go, it's our turn."

After greeting the 500 or so people nearby, Meng Bai led everyone towards the stage.

Compared with the previous TV drama award ceremonies, the reaction in the first-floor guest area was significantly colder, and it was obvious that they did not take the works of new platforms such as web dramas seriously.

But what they didn't expect was that the students and fans on the second floor unexpectedly burst into great enthusiasm. Many people shouted the names of "Wang Dachui" and "Zhao Li", and the enthusiasm was no less than that of the previous "Ancient Sword Group" and "Immortal Sword Group".

Many people then vaguely felt a different atmosphere - it turns out that these "low-cost" web dramas are so popular?
　Sorry everyone, I have something to do today, so I may only update twice. But I won't owe you anything, I will definitely make up for it after the May Day holiday in two days.
