That evening, Wang Xuan received a text message from Liu Shishi saying that she wouldn't be coming to ask him for advice the next day.

After filming the final scenes for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," it's time to head back to Shanghai.

It's better if they don't come, to avoid any accidental conflict.

Liu Shishi has good looks, personality, and temperament.

Wang Xuan quite admires him, and he wouldn't rule out the possibility of something actually happening between them.

At most, he'll give up his plan to woo a rich woman.

For the next few days, Wang Xuan continued his life as usual, and he was no longer allowed to receive guests.

the reason is simple.

Film crews and extras working in Hengdian all heard that the Wang family had produced a Berlin Film Festival Best Actor, so they all came to pay homage.

The restaurant was incredibly popular, keeping Mr. and Mrs. Wang extremely busy, but they were happy despite being tired.

Wang Xuan mentioned to them that his movies were making money, and after learning that he was going to invest in making more movies, they were all encouraging.

He thought he could stay at home for a few more days, but a phone call from his homeroom teacher made him return to school early.

He also specifically instructed me to bring the Silver Bear Trophy.

In keeping with the department's style, we have to take a picture and hang it on the honor wall; this is a testament to our teaching achievements.

"Remember to bring back the trophy you took with you after you're done taking photos."

Before leaving, Wang's father gave him special instructions.

This is an honor for the Wang family.

Wang Ma nodded in agreement; she deserved half the credit for this honor.

Amidst their reluctant gazes, Wang Xuan dragged his suitcase filled with local specialties and left Hengdian, a place loyal to him.

Yiwu Airport is small, but there are flights to the capital every day, which is great.

Two hours later, the plane landed at Beijing Airport.

Wang Xuan hailed a taxi and gave the driver the address of the school.

While waiting at a traffic light, he noticed a poster for "Buried" hanging on the exterior wall of the building.

China Film Group is trying to capitalize on the film's award-winning popularity to release it as soon as possible.

Noticing Wang Xuan's gaze, the taxi driver initiated the conversation: "I heard this movie belittles those who study abroad and immigrate. Haha, they really dare to make that!"

"Master, will you go see the movie when it's released?" Wang Xuan asked.

"No." He shook his head. "If I met the screenwriter of this movie, I'd have to ask him why he wrote such nonsense. Foreign countries are developed countries; what's wrong with them going there to receive higher education..."

Seeing that he was getting more and more excited, Wang Xuan tentatively asked, "Master, is your child studying abroad?"

"Yes, both daughters are still alive. We sold our ancestral courtyard house to support them. In a few years, they will bring me over to live with them and enjoy a comfortable life."

The driver looked completely absorbed in the moment, dreaming of his retirement life, and unconsciously slammed on the gas pedal twice.

Wang Xuan got off the bus at the school gate, took out his suitcase, and said to the driver, "I wish you a speedy departure abroad to reunite with your child."

"Thank you, young man. You're very polite, even though you're from out of town."

Ha ha!

I wonder if he'll still dare to flaunt his superiority after going abroad.

"Wow, the school really put up a banner for me!"

Wang Xuan looked up and noticed a conspicuous banner hanging at the school gate. Students and teachers coming and going looked at the words on the banner with deep envy in their eyes.

Someone noticed him; after all, he's so handsome and has such a distinctive look that he stands out the most in a place like the Beijing Film Academy, where handsome guys are everywhere.

To avoid attracting crowds who might ask for autographs or photos, Wang Xuan pulled his suitcase and quickly entered the school.

I sneaked all the way to the dormitory, where some classmates noticed me and started making good-natured jokes.

"Hey, the movie star is back."

"Isn't this the first Chinese actor to win a Best Actor award? Let me take a look!"

"Hey, keep it low-key." Wang Xuan waved with a smile.

"Haha, it'll be hard to keep a low profile from now on. He's a Berlin Film Festival Best Actor winner, the only one of its kind in China."

As soon as Wang Xuan put his luggage away, word spread throughout the school that the Berlin Film Festival Best Actor had returned.

Just as I was about to take the clothes out and hang them in the closet, my homeroom teacher called.

Wang Xuan found a plastic bag, put the Silver Bear Trophy on it, and went out.

Inside the office, several department leaders were smoking, and the air was thick with the smell of nicotine.

"Did you bring the trophy back to school? Don't leave it at home on purpose." A leader asked this question out of concern.

Just as the class teacher, Wang Chunzi, was about to reply, Wang Xuan knocked on the door and came in.

A group of people stared at the bag he was carrying.

Immediately, criticism arose from all sides.

"Oh my goodness~ This is the Best Actor award trophy, and you just brought it over like that?"

"You silly child, why didn't you find a better bag?"

Wang Xuan didn't expect it to cause such a big reaction: "There weren't any other bags in the dorm, so I just grabbed one."

For the next ten minutes, several leaders had Wang Xuan pose in various ways, holding up the Best Actor trophy.

"You saw the banner the school put up for you? Keep it up and get a few more, hahaha."

Wang Xuan was speechless. Did they really think that becoming a movie star was as easy as cabbage, and that he could win as many as he wanted?

The last picture shows a group photo of the leaders and teachers of the Performing Arts Department. They'll have plenty to write for this year's report.

"Wang Xuan, how about you try your movie at the Golden Horse Awards?" the head of the acting department asked.

"Let's not go. Going again would be a bit unfair. What if they give out some small prizes? Wouldn't that be helping others carry the torch?"

Wang Xuan thought about it and then declined.

He understood the school leaders' desire to achieve political success; if they tried to do something they didn't succeed, they would lose face.

Don't overestimate the true colors of those Taiwanese filmmakers.

Upon hearing this, the leader nodded in agreement: "By the way, you should prepare a speech. You will represent the outstanding students and speak on stage at the opening ceremony."

What the heck?

This is an excellent student!

It seems that apart from Wang Xuan, no one else is qualified.

I had no choice but to accept the task.

Back in his dormitory, Wang Xuan was thinking about what to say. When he left the office, his supervisor specifically instructed him that the content must be positive and uplifting.

If someone can write a script like "Buried Alive," I'm afraid he might say something earth-shattering if I don't specifically tell him, which would put his position as department head in jeopardy.

Just as Wang Xuan was getting into a train of thought, he was interrupted by a knock on the door. Zhu Yilong and his roommate walked in.

"Wang Xuan, here's the trophy! Let me admire it."

"It's in the bag, take it yourself."

Wang Xuan pointed to the trophy he had thrown on the bed, which was still in the trash bag.

Such a lack of attention naturally drew another round of criticism.

"Tsk, this is the Berlin Film Festival Best Actor Award trophy." Zhu Yilong gently stroked it, his eyes full of reverence.

Dr. Zhai and Peng Guanying didn't dare to touch him; they weren't very familiar with Wang Xuan and could only watch him with envy.

"Give it a try, it's just a trophy, don't make it so precious."

Wang Xuan spoke so casually that it made Zhu Yilong's hands itch with a strong urge to hit him.

The sudden change in their demeanor made them feel quite uncomfortable.

They each touched it, and Wang Xuan sent them away, needing to think carefully about how to write his speech.

After thinking for a while, Wang Xuan had an inspiration and typed out the title on the computer.

[I, the Best Actor]

After hesitating for a moment, I felt that setting it too high was too ambitious, so I changed it to "On the Best Actor" instead!
