Ning Xi looked at the words "Best Supporting Actress" and was as excited as when she saw "Dream Chaser" was nominated for Best Actress.
After all, "The World" is her first film and has special meaning to her. Being nominated for the Palme d'Or, the most prestigious award in the country, was an exciting affirmation for her as she was still a newcomer at the time.
Then, she scanned the next line and saw...
“Oh my god! Ning Xueluo’s acting skills are so poor that she was actually nominated for Best Actress?” Lu Jingli exclaimed, humming and mumbling, “There must be something fishy going on, or she’s just here to run for a runner-up!”
Ning Xi finally finished reading all the lists. She found that Ning Xueluo had two films nominated for Best Actress at the same time, one was "The World" and the other was "The Mountain".
It seems that Ning Xueluo is preparing for a comeback this time...
"Two of them were actually selected! Are the judges blind?" Lu Jingli continued to complain.
Ning Xi stroked her chin and analyzed, "Ning Xueluo's performance in The World is indeed good. It is not surprising that she was nominated for Best Actress."
Even now, many people still say that Ning Xueluo's performance in "The World" is the pinnacle of her acting career...
Little did they know that Ning Xueluo's acting skills were largely forced out by Ning Xi at that time.
The subsequent plays lost the sense of crisis, so naturally they could no longer reach this state...
Ning Xi paused, and continued, "As for the film 'The Mountain', it was released together with 'Dream Seekers' and the box office was dismal, with only a few million. But this film was not aimed at the box office, but at winning awards. The genre and subject matter are very suitable, and the character setting can also please those academic judges. It is not surprising that it was shortlisted for nominations..."
Regardless of whether Ning Xueluo has connections behind the scenes or not, there shouldn't be any controversy about her two films being nominated.
Ning Xi's "Dream Seekers" was once defined as a commercial drama, so it was a surprise to be nominated. Although her performance in "The World" was very good, the competition for the Best Supporting Actress was very fierce. She saw several strong opponents, so it was unknown whether she could win...
Lu Jingli patted Ning Xi's shoulder, "Xiao Xixi, based on my guess... you still have a great chance of winning the award! After all, your ability is there!"
Lu Tingxiao at the side: "Does this require speculation?"
Lu Jingli was speechless for a moment, "Yes, yes... There is no need to speculate, your wife is the best!"
Lu Tingxiao looked at Ning Xi and comforted her, "Don't be nervous. The reason why the Golden Palm Award is so highly regarded is not only because of its professionalism, but also to a large extent because of its fairness. In the end, only those who can win the award can rely on their strength."
Even if someone did something to interfere, they would not be able to influence the final result.
Ning Xi was a little nervous. After all, it was the first time she was nominated. However, she felt better after hearing Lu Tingxiao's words of comfort.
"Congratulations, Mommy, for being nominated~" The little kid at the side congratulated Ning Xi in a childish voice, and even brought over a bouquet of flowers without her noticing.
The bouquet was so huge compared to the little bun that it covered his entire body.
Lu Tingxiao took the bouquet from the little bun, handed it to Ning Xi, and kissed her on the forehead, "Congratulations."
Look at this father and son... They were well prepared!
Lu Jingli, a lonely man, was so angry that his face turned red. However, he still forced himself to pull out a bunch of car keys from his pocket, "It's a reward from the company! I'll give it to you in advance!"
"Thank you..." Ning Xi gently held the bouquet. At this moment, her heart was no longer worried about whether she could win the prize, but was filled with warmth...
