Chapter 74: Chapter 74 Screaming Night
Ye Xian had just returned to the hotel when she received a call from her agent, Jiang Wen.
She raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised, “Wow, a rare guest indeed. It’s rare that you, the gold medal agent Jiang Wen, still remember this little shrimp under you?”
Even through the internet, Jiang Wen could feel her sarcasm and laughed awkwardly, “Lin Yan has been holding a concert recently, I’ve been really busy, and I did explain that last issue to you clearly. You sure hold grudges, huh? By the way, I heard you’ve already joined the crew, and your ban in the circle has been lifted. It was Yan Dong himself who posted an apology on Weibo. Ye Xian, not bad, how did you manage that?”
As an agent, having to hear through rumors about his artists’ schedules, Ye Xian snorted coldly, “I just have a powerful backer behind me~”
It was obvious she was speaking out of spite.
Jiang Wen chuckled, “Unless your backer is President Bo, no one else has the right to make Yan Dong personally apologize.”
Jiang Wen was just making a joke offhand, but Ye Xian choked on his words.
“Something wrong? If not, I’m hanging up.”
“There is something, not just something, but a great piece of good news!”
“A great piece of good news?”
At that tone, Ye Xian became interested, wondering if it was her resource coming to her?
“You know about the Screaming Night Awards Ceremony the day after tomorrow night? The guests and audience were all set, but just now an extra invitation was sent out; it’s for you!”
“Screaming Night? Wait a second…”
Ye Xian found the name familiar but couldn’t quite place it, so she looked it up on Baidu.
The ‘Screaming Night’ Awards Ceremony, jointly created by Apple Platform and Xiangfei Video, is held every June 5 at Hexi Exhibition Hall. Unlike traditional TV media awards like the Magnolia and Hundred Flowers Awards, the Screaming Night Awards mainly involve online voting, allowing netizens to select the ‘Screaming Male God’, ‘Screaming Female God’, ‘TV Series of the Year’, ‘Best Singer of the Year’, and ‘Most Commercially Valuable Artist’…
In essence, it’s more for entertainment, but since the awards are chosen through massive online data, they carry significant weight within the industry.
After all, in this era of popularity, the only thing that really counts is the data.
But with awards being handed out like free candy, what does that have to do with her?
She couldn’t believe that with her current reputation and position in the circle, she would still be able to receive an award?
“Are you sure you read the right name on the invitation? Is it really me?”
“I’m not going blind yet, it’s indeed you.”
“…” Ye Xian was silent for a few seconds, and Jiang Wen understood his thoughts, “I don’t know why they would suddenly invite you either, it’s quite strange.”
Ye Xian asked, “Are Jiang Wanze, Lin Yan, Cary going?”
“Yes, all three of them are getting awards.”
Jiang Wen blurted out, then paused, wondering if that was a bit damaging to her self-esteem?
Being in the same team, the other three got awards, but she didn’t.
Ye Xian got it; that explained it. Perhaps the Screaming Night was going to give a group award to FOR, so they sent her an invitation as well, letting her bask in the shared glory.
Seeing her silent, Jiang Wen cautiously asked, “If you don’t want to go, I can decline for you.”
“Why decline? An award ceremony with a red carpet and live broadcast is such a great opportunity for exposure, why would I waste it?”
Moreover, by coincidence, the Screaming Night was on a Friday, and her part in ‘Business World’ was broadcast on Saturday, making it a free promotion and warm-up.
“…are you sure you’re not going just because of Jiang Wanze?”
