The performances on the big stage are still going on. There are several first-line singers invited today. The atmosphere of the party is lively, and the major video platforms are also broadcasting tonight's awards banquet simultaneously. The number of online views easily exceeded one billion.

After Chen Yijun finished singing this year's popular new song "Memento", the host stepped into the middle of the stage and said with a smile: "Next. Let's present the first award of the annual feast of online dramas - the Best Newcomer Award!"

Profiles of several nominated newcomers flashed on the big screen on the stage, and the cameras also showed the actors sitting below the stage.

Cheng Xia's face was captured by the camera and enlarged on the screen.

He was wearing a suit today and looked more mature than usual. When he saw the camera coming, Cheng Xia immediately smiled at the camera. The handsome smile caused the audience to burst into a deafening scream—

The barrages of major live broadcast platforms instantly filled the screen: "Xia Xia is so handsome today!" "Cheng Xia is the newcomer who has debuted in the past few years, right? Two dramas have exploded in a year! "This year's newcomer award is undoubtedly Cheng Xia!"

The audience found the handsome man sitting next to Cheng Xia, and many people asked: "Who is that next to Cheng Xia? Is he too good-looking?" "Which star is it? I haven't seen it much!"

Soon someone did popular science: "You don't even know him? He's President Pei!" "Pei has always been the most profitable boss in TV dramas this year!" "The one sitting with Xia Xia is God. Xuan's boss!"

The moment the camera came over, Pei Shaoze had no expression on his face.

Until the host finished reading the names of several nominated actors, then opened the envelope and announced excitedly: "The best newcomer of the year in 20XX is "Folding Paper", Cheng Xia!"

There was thunderous applause from the audience, and the chase light was fixed at Cheng Xia's position. Cheng Xia stood up excitedly and waved to everyone.

Pei Shaoze, who had always been expressionless, raised the corners of his lips and took the initiative to stand up and stretch out his arms.

Cheng Xia immediately jumped into his arms and hugged him tightly.

It's common for an artist to receive an award and the boss to congratulate him politely.

The viewers who watched the live broadcast felt that this picture was very harmonious, and the two of them were a perfect match when they stood together, especially Mr. Pei, who has always been serious and indifferent, rarely had a gentle gaze, and gently patted Cheng Xia on the shoulder and said a few words in his ear. sentence.

Cheng Xia nodded, and after parting, he turned around and bowed to the audience, and ran quickly to the big stage.

The host said: "I'll invite President Jiang of Bear TV to present the award!"

President Jiang stepped onto the stage and handed the golden trophy to Cheng Xia. Cheng Xia took the trophy and shook hands with him.

The host asked: "Cheng Xia, won the Best Newcomer Award, what do you want to tell everyone?"

The shining lights on the big stage made Cheng Xia almost unable to open his eyes, and the audience was covered in darkness. Cheng Xia was inevitably a little nervous in such a grand scene, but remembering what Brother Pei said, Cheng Xia cracked and took a deep breath. After adjusting his mood, he took the microphone with a smile, and said seriously: "I am very happy to win the Best Newcomer of the Year Award! My dream since I was a child was to be an excellent actor. In this industry, when filming the first work, I was fortunate to have the help of Director Liu, screenwriter Xu, author Lemongrass, as well as many teachers in the crew and the agent’s sister.”

"As a newcomer, my performance in "Folding Paper" is not perfect. I am very grateful to be recognized by the judges and teachers. I am also very grateful to my fans for their support and encouragement. Thank you!"

Immediately, the fans screamed excitedly from the audience.

As a newcomer, it was the first time I participated in the award ceremony, and it was the first time I took the stage to receive the award. Cheng Xia's performance was really impressive. He didn't have a voice that was so choked that he couldn't speak completely, and he wasn't so excited that he burst into tears. Instead, he was very calm and humble. .

Many people in the live broadcast room were talking: "This newcomer is amazing, he is not stage fright at all!" "Many newcomers will be too excited to speak when they receive the award for the first time, and Cheng Xia is too stable..." "It feels like Influenced by President Pei?"

Cheng Xia stood on the big stage with a bright smile.

It was indeed influenced by Pei Shaoze. Brother Pei is so calm no matter what he does, so he can't be too flirtatious to embarrass Brother Pei. Just like what Brother Pei said in his ear just now: "The Newcomer Award is just the beginning for you."

So there is no need to get too excited, he must keep his mind steady.

There are many stars in the entertainment industry who have won the Newcomer Award, but quickly fell in the later period. He has to work hard for his future star career.

Cheng Xia looked in the direction of Pei Shaoze under the stage and said slowly, "Here, I would like to thank one person in particular."

The applause at the scene stopped, Cheng Xia's clear voice echoed in the audience through the amplification of the microphone, the boy's eyes were clear and bright, and his tone was extraordinarily serious: "That is President Pei of our Tianxuan Group."

The chasing light hit Pei Shaoze again. The man was sitting there imposingly in a black straight suit. After hearing Cheng Xia's public thanks, his originally handsome and serious face showed a shallow smile. He looked at Cheng Xia on the stage with very gentle eyes.

Cheng Xia continued: "Thank you, Mr. Pei for your respect and love for the company's artists, and thank you for giving me a chance to be an upright actor! Since I entered the entertainment industry, the greatest luck is to sign with Tianxuan and meet a boss like you. !"

The audience laughed and applauded.

Pei Shaoze also chuckled and applauded Cheng Xia.

The passers-by in the live broadcast room began to frantically swipe the screen: "Cheng Xia's rainbow fart is so slippery!" "Xia Xia's rainbow fart hit President Pei's heart, didn't you all laugh when you didn't see President Pei?" "Pei It’s always hard to laugh, go back and give us a salary increase for Xia Xia.” “Speaking of the rainbow fart of the boss, Cheng Xia’s rainbow fart is unparalleled, from the serious demeanor to the smooth lines, it is simply a template.”

Many of the stars present also felt that Cheng Xia's emotional intelligence was indeed high. When he gave his acceptance speech, he thanked everyone. In the end, he especially thanked the boss. No one would flatter the boss on this occasion. He did enough. Pei Shaoze's face.

Only Cheng Xia and Pei Shaoze knew that this thank you was not a flattery - it was a sincere thank you from the heart.

The moment Cheng Xia received the trophy, he couldn't help thinking, if Pei Shaoze didn't rationally control his instincts on the day when his pheromone got out of control, but instead marked him and made him his lover, everything would have changed after that. Different.

No matter how successful he is, he is a lowly entertainer who seduces his boss and sells his body. He could not stand on the stage to accept the award with a clear conscience, nor could he face the abuse and accusations of netizens calmly.

It was Pei Shaoze's respect and love for him that gave him the opportunity to straighten his back and be an actor. It is also Pei Shaoze's unique vision and precise investment that allowed him to win the Best Newcomer of the Year award with his first drama!

Could he not thank Pei Shaoze

This Alpha has a gift for him.

It is his boss and the lover he wants to cherish on the top of his heart.

After Cheng Xia finished his acceptance speech, he bowed deeply to the audience, and then walked off the stage with the trophy.

When Cheng Xia was seated, Pei Shaoze leaned into his ear and said softly, "No thanks - it's also my luck to meet you."

Cheng Xia's heart was suddenly wrapped in the familiar warmth, he gently held Pei Shaoze's hand under the seat, and the other hand picked up the trophy to observe carefully, and asked curiously, "This trophy is very beautiful, it is gilded Is it?"

Pei Shaoze said: "The surface is plated with gold, and it will not rust after many years."

Cheng Xia whispered, "Then I'll take a few more trophies and put them at home in the future. It's so beautiful."

Pei Shaoze's voice was very gentle: "Okay, you will continue to work hard in the future, and win all the awards for TV series, movies, and more."

Cheng Xia has a goal, and his heart is suddenly full of fighting spirit. It is already the end of November, and this year's Chinese New Year is January. He thought that after the Spring Festival, he would prepare for the next film, and he couldn't be idle for too long.

The award ceremony continued, and the best actor and best actress were taken away by the actors of the "Gene Project". The actors in this show are all first-line in the circle, with high reputation, and their acting skills are indeed reasonable. Pei Shaoze has no problem with this, he can't win all the awards.

Next came the main event: "The nominees for the 20XX 'Best Online Drama of the Year' are - Through the Looking Glass, Gene Project, Folding Paper, Investment Elite, and Traces of Disappearance!"

These dramas are quite famous in the field of online dramas this year. Everyone found that two dramas invested by President Pei were nominated, and compared with the other three dramas with an investment of more than 100 million yuan, Pei Shaoze invested in these two dramas. Only 10 million.

It feels like two bicycles mixed in a lot of luxury cars, but they can keep pace with the luxury cars!

In the anticipation of the audience, the host opened the envelope and announced excitedly: "I will announce that the winner of the 'Best Online Drama' award is - "The Traces of Disappearance"!"

The investors of other dramas are not very good-looking. A short 12-episode suspense film actually surpassed the 60-episode Xianxia production IP, 50-episode wonderful sci-fi movies and 40-episode workplace inspirational dramas, becoming a The strongest dark horse of the year? !

Director Zhu excitedly went to the stage to accept the award, and Cheng Xia, who was sitting in the audience, applauded especially vigorously.

"The next award, the best screenwriter award for a web drama, is "The Traces of Disappearance"!"

The audience burst into applause.

"Best Editing, "Gone Trace"!"

"Best Music, "Gone Trace"!"

Audiences:"… … … "

It's just a swipe.

What is "getting the prize and getting soft"? What is "Life Winner of the Year"? !

The two online dramas cast by President Pei, "Folding Paper", as the first work to test the waters, won Cheng Xia the Best Newcomer Award and won ten times the profit return. "The Traces of Disappearance" is the second work, not to mention the best online drama, best editing, best screenwriting, best music and other awards, it also became the first place in the rating list of suspense drama genres, and won the That's a horrible 20:1 ROI!

If there is the best investor of the year, this award is none other than Pei Shaoze!

***

After the awards ceremony, Pei Shaoze's Weibo already had tens of thousands of comments, all of them praising his investment vision, and many fans said: "Which drama will Mr. Pei cast in next, I will vote in a few forums in advance. Coins?" "President Pei said that I have pre-booked next year's awards." "I want to use all my net worth to buy Tianxuan's stocks. I think that with a boss like President Pei, Tianxuan's market value will definitely double!"

At the same time, many big bosses in the circle took the initiative to invite Pei Shaoze for dinner, and the topic of discussion was: "Does Mr. Pei have any investment plans for the next step? Is there a lack of funds? We can make additional investments!" "President Pei, are you interested in following us? Company cooperation?"

There were also many advertisers who contacted him and expressed their willingness to spend tens of millions of dollars in publicity expenses to implant advertisements in Pei Shaoze's next drama.

Pei Shaoze has become a partner in the investment circle, which is very similar to his experience in reality.

He has always believed that capable people never lack partners. In the future, he doesn't have to worry about funds when he shoots dramas. It is only his preliminary plan to double the market value of Tianxuan. He also wants to open up a wider world for his beloved teenager.

On November 21, Pei Shaoze returned home because his father Pei Sheng's examination results came out.

Due to the timely operation of early gastric cancer, the cancer cells did not spread, and he recovered very well. In addition, his mental state was good, and his recent complexion was much better than before. Pei Sheng was watching the awards ceremony on the TV at home. Seeing the success of his son's investment drama, he was about to laugh from ear to ear.

Therefore, Pei Shaoze proposed: "Dad, after the Spring Festival, I would like to formally establish two branches of Tianxuan Pictures and Tianxuan Records to further reform Tianxuan collectively."

Pei Sheng said without hesitation: "Dad believes in your ability, let go and do it!"

Pei Shaoze continued: "In addition, there are some cancers in the company, and I want to clear them as soon as possible."

Pei Sheng was stunned, frowned and asked, "Tumor, what do you mean?"

"Cui Jue." Pei Shaoze said simply, "Dad, Vice President Cui has embezzled 200 million of the company's funds. I have all the evidence in my hands. The Deputy Chief Financial Officer, who has been in trouble with him, has been helping him for the past few years. Yin-Yang Ledger, he invested in several 'loss-making' dramas, and the funds were all transferred to his private account. I have already found a lawyer, and his practice is enough to sentence him for more than ten years. "

Pei Sheng's lips trembled with anger: "This bastard! I've always regarded him as a good brother, but he actually embezzled the company's money... "

Pei Shaoze said calmly: "The people in front of money temptation will always change. He did small tricks behind his back during the time when you were diagnosed with early gastric cancer and underwent surgery. Since he has embarked on this road, we don't need to give He is merciful, what do you think?"

Pei Sheng clenched his fists and nodded with a sullen face: "I'm old... You can figure it out."

Pei Shaoze will not show any mercy to Cui Jue. After all, in the original novel, Vice President Cui not only took away the Tianxuan Group, but also killed his younger brother Pei Shaoyan from drug overdose! This time, since he had the upper hand, he had to let Cui Jue go to prison for more than ten years before he could feel at ease.

The father and son were chatting, and mother Lu Manjing went upstairs with a plate of fruit and said softly, "Shaoze, it will be your birthday in two days. This year's birthday, your father wants to hold a birthday party for you, after all, this is your birthday. You can't be too shabby on your first birthday when you officially take office in Tianxuan."

Pei Shaoze frowned and said, "Holding a birthday party? I'm not a star, so I don't need it, right?"

But Pei Sheng said solemnly: "Of course it is necessary! You are now the president of Tianxuan, and you have made a lot of money in the two dramas you invested in this year, and you will hold a birthday banquet in public to get everyone in the company to come. Participation is also a kind of recognition from the whole company, and my mother and I will also attend when the time comes."

Pei Shaoze thought about it carefully, his father's consideration was reasonable. Before, he was just a nominal boss, and no one in the company accepted him. Today, he has invested in two dramas with his own unique vision. In just one year, 20 million investment has been exchanged for more than 1 billion profits. There should be no one inside the company to express any doubts about his ability.

This birthday banquet is equivalent to Chairman Pei Sheng announcing to the entire Tianxuan Group that his eldest son, Pei Shaoze, will officially become the ruler of this entertainment empire.

Pei Shaoze nodded: "Okay, let's listen to parents' arrangements."
