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

Chapter 512 It's not easy to be a scumbag

June 10th, Shanghai Culture Square.

Due to the flu, the overall scale of this year's Magnolia Awards was relatively small. Apart from the artists and invited media attending the ceremony, there was no one else, and the entire event looked very plain.

"Song Yun, here."

Li Qin, who was wearing a light golden dress, stood up and waved her hand, saying to a figure walking over not far away: "Your seat is next to me."

Tan Songyun walked over with her skirt lifted, glanced at the seat with her name on it, and smiled sweetly: "I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."

After helping her straighten her skirt and sit down, Li Qin asked curiously, "Why, are you the only one here in your crew?"

"Yes, I am the only one who is nominated and has time." Tan Songyun sighed, "Actually, I don't want to come either, because I won't get the award anyway, but I have no choice. My agent said that we have little influence and it would be bad if we don't come."

"Everyone is the same. I was asked to come here by the team. I have to give face to the organizer." Li Qin said with deep sympathy.

Before the award ceremony started, the two girls, who identified with each other, were chatting quietly.

Speaking of which, the two of them are not strangers to each other. They had worked together many years ago when filming the movie version of "Love O2O".

Tan Songyun played the role of Zhao Erxi in the movie version, while Li Qin played the role of the school beauty Meng Yiran. The two did not have many direct scenes together, but they knew each other. In addition, they often met in activities and programs in the following years, so they were quite familiar with each other.

After chatting for a while, another group of people walked in from the main entrance. It was obviously a new crew walking the red carpet. The two didn't pay much attention at first, but they didn't expect that the new group of guests, led by the staff, came straight to their row.

Tan Songyun looked over curiously and found that a figure in the crew looked familiar.

"Senior! Here, here!"

She stood up and waved happily, and then she saw Li Yitong, who was wearing a black off-shoulder dress, walking towards her with her eyes curved and a smile on her face.

"It's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect that we could sit together by chance."

"Maybe it was deliberately arranged by the organizer... But it's been a long time since we last met."

Compared with the meeting with Li Qin just now, Tan Songyun's attitude towards Li Yitong was obviously more friendly. But this was no wonder, just like her address, this was the "senior sister Luo Zhi" whom she admired the most when she was in Zhenhua Middle School.

The two knew each other when they were filming "The Best of Us" and later they made cameo appearances in "Unrequited Love". Although they haven't worked together much since then, they have always kept in touch.

Hugging Tan Songyun intimately, Li Yitong looked past her and saw Li Qin sitting on the other side. The latter also saw her, and the two women were stunned at the same time.

Although they had expected to meet at the ceremony, no one expected the organizer to do such a thing and arrange them together.

Of course, it is also possible that the organizers did not care about this and simply put the three candidates nominated for "Best Actress" together. After all, there is Tan Songyun in between.

Fortunately, there was Tan Songyun in between - they both silently said this in their hearts at the same time.

There were cameras all around at the ceremony. It wouldn't have mattered if they were far away, but now that we were so close, it really wouldn't be appropriate to keep a completely cold face.

"Hello, Mr. Li."

"Haha, hello."

The two girls forced a smile at the same time, nodded at each other, and then returned to their respective seats tacitly.

Tan Songyun, who was sitting in the middle, didn't react at first and was still chatting with the two of them with a smile, but gradually she found that the atmosphere around her seemed a little gloomy.

She blinked and looked around, then suddenly she thought of the gossip about the two people on the Internet, and the smile that had not yet completely faded froze on her face.

Oh, it seems like I have entered some unspeakable strange realm.

At the same time, the two people sitting on either side began to frequently interact with her, as if they had discussed it beforehand. "Song Yun, let's take a photo together. We can post it on Weibo later when you pick one."

"Song Yun, I haven't seen you for a long time. Let's take a photo together as a sequel to the 'Zhenhua Trilogy' for the audience."

"Oh, some people are really like that. They want to do whatever others do. Even the imitation shows are not as good as hers."

"Tsk, there are always people who don't understand what 'first come, first served' means, and they always think they are so righteous."

"It's first come first served. It doesn't mean that I see something first so it belongs to me."

"Indeed, the most disgusting thing is the people who don't choose for themselves and just take things from other people's shopping carts. It's really hard to describe."

"Ah!"

"Humph!"

Listening to the sarcastic remarks exchanged between the left and right, Tan Songyun couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart. She never knew that she was so popular, with two girls vying to be close to her.

Of course, she also knows that she is just a "stand-in". The one the two people are really fighting for is probably watching the live broadcast.

In fact, Tan Songyun's guess was correct, Meng Bai was indeed watching the live broadcast of the award ceremony. It was just that it was still the red carpet session, so he couldn't see the scene inside.

In fact, he was not that worried. Although the two girls disliked each other, they were all respectable adults after all. At most, they would just look a little unhappy, but it was impossible for them to fight on the spot.

Of course, he still feels uneasy, so he is watching the live broadcast here.

After waiting for more than an hour, as the red carpet segment ended, the live camera finally cut to the interior.

Meng Bai's spirits lifted. He looked at the overhead view that was sliding from back to front on the screen, and soon saw two familiar figures.

Wait, two?
He took another look and realized that the two girls were so close to each other.

Fuck, I must file a complaint with the Magnolia Awards officials tomorrow.

Fortunately, judging from their expressions, there seemed to be nothing unusual, and they were even in the mood to wave and say hello to the camera passing overhead.

Seeing this, Meng Bai felt relieved.

In fact, it’s not that bad. Although there seems to be only one person between the two people, due to the regulations on large-scale gatherings in venues due to the pandemic, the distance between the two people on the scene is quite wide, and there are green tapes to indicate separation.

The distance between the two girls was more than one meter, and it was difficult for them to communicate unless they moved towards the middle at the same time.

Of course, the live camera cannot always shoot the audience seats, it must focus on the stage, so he can only observe through intermittent switching.

Of course, he didn't just stand there and watch, but was communicating with the two girls via WeChat, and trying to find out the situation from their respective words.

Teacher Li's tone was a little angry, and he was obviously a little upset. However, with the previous "project investment" vaccination and Meng Bai's comfort in WeChat, it was not a big problem.

In comparison, Boss Li seemed to be much better, and his replies were still mainly teasing. However, Meng Bai knew this girl very well, and was able to keenly sense the sourness hidden in her words.

There's no way around it. You have to bear the consequences of your own actions.

Meng Bai used two mobile phones to work at the same time. He had to reply to the two girls with different contents in the same tone, and control the rhythm so that they would not find out that the other party was also replying to the message.

Alas, it is easy to be a scumbag, but it is not so easy to be a scumbag with a peaceful harem.
