Meaning, Lu Man’s seat was added between Xia Qingwei’s and Han Zhuoli’s.

“Alright, let’s sit at the front,” w.a.n.g Juhuai said to Lu Man.

When Lu Man got up, w.a.n.g Juhuai chuckled at Ke Kebo. “Sorry for the trouble!”

“It’s nothing, nothing. It’s our mistake anyway,” Ke Kebo replied with a smile.

And w.a.n.g Juhuai hence brought Lu Man and Xia Qingwei towards the front, utterly satisfied.

Liang Chengbing could do nothing but stare as Lu Man walked past him and sat at the center of the first row.

The center of the center! The VIP among the VIPs!

Li Zhengqin and Ke Kebo both heaved a sigh of relief, having finally sent the big boss on his way.

The two of them were probably the only ones there still having a good mood.

Liang Chengbing saw Lu Man striding past him; he himself was seated at the fourth row, but Lu Man went to sit at the first!

Only some famous directors and local actors beyond the A-listers were seated at the sides of the first row.

From afar, all one could see were award-winning actors and actresses.

Next to the center of the first row were extremely influential big bosses within the movie industry like Han Zhuoli, or world-renowned masters like w.a.n.g Juhuai.

And in the midst of all these people, Lu Man appeared out of nowhere.

Wasn’t that infuriating?!

What’s more, Lu Man stopped just as she pa.s.sed Liang Chengbing.

Though she wasn’t using her hands, he could still see that she was counting the rows.

One row, two rows, three rows…

Lu Man stopped when she got to Liang Chengbing’s row.

“Well, do excuse me, Director Liang.” Lu Man smiled lightly.

Liang Chengbing’s face turned purple in his anger.

Excuse what?

It’s not like she was with him at first!

In the end, the Lu Man that he looked down upon actually went to sit at the center of the first row.

Making him look like some unknown amateur director.

The others who were previously greeting and conversing with Liang Chengbing and Zhang Lun were now re-evaluating Lu Man in their minds.

Who would have thought that w.a.n.g Juhuai actually cared about her that much?

Lu Man walked to Han Zhuoli and couldn’t stop her laughter.

Han Zhuoli pointed at the chair beside him. “Sit.”

Lu Man sat down without qualms, totally unpressured.

Others were wondering, why wasn’t she afraid when sitting next to Han Zhuoli?!

Not long after that, the award ceremony started.

A male and female emcee walked out.

When it was time to present the award for the Best Director, the male emcee said, “Please look at the screen.”

The screen showed the nominees’ names for the Best Director Award.

And Liang Chengbing’s name did not appear in any of the five up there.

Liang Chengbing’s expression was ugly. Not winning was within his expectations, but to not even have a nomination? It was too much!

Every time a nominee was announced, a spotlight would s.h.i.+ne on the person so that the camera could capture him or her easily.

But Liang Chengbing had had none.

He waited with a dark expression until the Best Movie award came on and the screen started playing the nomination list.

In the end, his

was not up there either!

Liang Chengbing was so angry that he nearly left the venue.

And any actors who were involved in his movie were similarly not nominated for the rest of the major awards, like the Best Male/Female Leads and Best Supporting Male/Female Leads!

Liang Chengbing thought that this was a personal attack!

No wonder he was arranged to sit in the fourth row!

Probably because they didn’t need any of his shots.

“Now, let us announce a new award that our festival has created just this year—the Best Newcomer Award!” the male emcee said.

“This is the first time the film festival has set up such an award, and it’s the first time we’re presenting it,” the female emcee continued. “It’s meant to encourage the new actors in the film industry to create better films, and for more audience to recognize these newcomers.”
