257 The nomination

After “the prisoner” was published, it did not sell well, not only in China, but also in foreign countries. Only true novel lovers collected it.

“I have the original version of ‘the prisoner’,” Chessaray blinked his eyes, and a smug look appeared on his face, as if he was a child showing off his most precious gift.

I spent a lot of effort to get it. It even has Matthew’s autograph. I really like this novel.

He laughed and said, ”

“I can lend it to you if you need it.”

Jiang se could not help but feel a little surprised. She also felt a little excited as a look of pleasant surprise appeared on her face.

“Really?”

This book was published more than 40 years ago. When the author, Matthew, was published, he was already in his 60S. He had been very low-key all his life and there was not much information about him on the internet. He had passed away a long time ago.

Even though censarre was quite famous and capable, it was not easy for him to get his hands on the original ” the prisoner ” novel published in Italy, which had matthiew’s autograph.

To chessaray, this must be an extremely precious item. Jiang se did not expect him to be willing to lend it to her.

“Yes, I am.” Chessaray nodded, his eyes brimming with joy. I can understand how you feel, but I believe that Matthew will be happy that his novel is being circulated by real readers, instead of being kept in my library as a cold collection. That would lose the original meaning of the novel.

He licked his lips, lowered his head and chuckled. Then, he raised his head again.

after the meeting is over, I’ll leave my contact information. When I return to Italy, I’ll ask someone to send it to China.

To Jiang se, the joy of receiving such an unexpected reward was no less than the possibility of winning an award tonight.

After making an appointment with chessaray to exchange contact information later, the two of them started talking about the novel “the prisoner “. Not far away, Feng Nan felt bitter in his mouth.

She felt a little anxious about the situation, but she was troubled that she could not join in the conversation. After Zhao junhan stopped translating for her, she did not even know what chessaray and Jiang se had talked about.

If this continued, he wouldn’t be able to find a chance to talk to Chesare at the film festival tonight.

For the first time, she regretted that after her rebirth, she did not know much about English and did not learn much, which led to her current ending.

She even began to doubt her own judgment. Previously, she had thought that Jiang se had been reincarnated. That was how she had managed to avoid some of the traps in her previous life. After she entered the entertainment industry, everything had been smooth sailing for her. She had chosen “rescue mission” as her first film. The rest of her films had good reviews and box office sales. This was probably because she had predicted the future in advance after being reincarnated.

However, when she saw Jiang se chatting happily with the chessaray and answering the foreign judges ‘questions fluently in English, she wondered if she had been mistaken. She knew best if the original Jiang se could speak English.

She was a person who had not even gone to college. She was a woman who had not learned anything after entering the entertainment industry. She might not even know how to memorize a few English words. Feng Nan could not relate her to the Jiang se in his memory and the Jiang se now.

When Xia Chaoqun entered the room, he was also surprised.

She initially thought that it would not be easy for Jiang se to build a good relationship with the people in the venue since she did not enter the venue. Without Xia Chaoqun’s introduction, however, when she entered the venue, Jiang se not only became familiar with many people, but she even struck up a conversation with chessaray and even borrowed a book from him. The situation was much better than Xia Chaoqun had expected!

At around 8:10 pm, the scene on the screen slowly changed. Jiang se returned to her seat while mo Anqi suppressed the joy in her heart and said softly, ”

“Sese, sister Xia complimented you.”

Jiang se did not see Xia Chaoqun in the venue. Tonight, she was with Tao cen. She heard that Tao cen would be one of the important guests at the award ceremony.

Jiang se took a deep breath. Before the film festival officially started, the makeup artist went forward to touch up her makeup. As the film clips that had won awards at the film festival over the years flashed across the screen, the host appeared on stage. This meant that the film festival had officially started.

The cameras at the venue were clearly broadcasting this scene in real time. Xia Chaoqun had previously reminded them that the film festival this time would be streamed live on the internet. Whether it was the reporters ‘cameras or the cameras in the venue, they were everywhere.

Jiang se sat up straight. Occasionally, she would lower her head and whisper to Lin xiwen and fan Zhiyun with a smile on her face. This was to prevent any cameras from capturing them in silence. If that happened, the reporters would write that they did not get along well with the crew.

This time, Lin xiwen wanted to win the best Director, best scriptwriter, and Best Supporting Actress awards for “events of Beiping” at the beginning of the month. She also hoped to add color to her career milestone.

As for the Best Actor and Best Actress, fan Zhiyun and Song Qian, who played the male lead, knew that the competition was fierce. They also knew that their chances of winning the award were slim. After all, the competition was fierce this time, especially with Liu Ye’s participation. Therefore, the two of them were calm and did not look nervous or worried.

Lin xiwen, on the other hand, was quite worried. She clenched her hands in front of her abdomen, her cheeks twitching.

This time, he had met Zhang Jingan from “rescue mission “. The chances of him winning the Best Director award were not high. When he turned to speak to Jiang se, he felt a little heavy-hearted.

After the host had warmed up the stage, a man in a suit holding an envelope strode onto the stage. The screen was accompanied by an introduction, and the movie footage began to play one by one.

As time passed, the major awards were given to different films, and the remaining awards were fewer and fewer. This made some people in the venue inevitably nervous.

Mo Anqi licked her lips and clenched her fists when the host announced the next nomination for Best Supporting Female lead.

next up, we’re presenting the Best Supporting Female lead Award. The nominated films, please look at the big screen!

In the midst of the applause, the first film to be nominated slowly appeared on the big screen.

‘rescue mission’, Feng Nan.

On the screen, the scene of miss Eguchi, played by Feng Nan in ” rescue mission “, before she died appeared. Although it was a short frame, it still left a deep impression on the audience.

Jiang se had already guessed that she would run into Feng Nan when she won the Best Supporting Female lead Award this time. When she was first nominated, Jiang se was not surprised at all. Instead, she sat there calmly.

As the films continued to play, there were already seven or eight films nominated for Best Supporting Female lead. However, ” events of Beiping ” had not been announced yet. Fan Zhiyun turned to glance at Jiang se, but she did not look anxious. Xia Chaoqun had mentioned that she would definitely be nominated for the award at this Film Festival!

As expected, the next moment, the voice on the screen said, ”

‘Beiping’s Grand occasion’, Jiang se.
