Hidden Marriage: A Heaven-sent Billionaire Husband

Chapter 2345  Twins

The staff member hurriedly said, "No, our awards have already been processed. Moreover, all the award winners were selected fairly and impartially. It has nothing to do with whether we accept sponsorship or not."

Huang Shitao stood at the side and asked, "What movie is it?"

"It's… a movie about demons fighting. It's a little vulgar. It was almost banned," the assistant explained softly.

"Then why did you accept their sponsorship before?"

The assistant said in a low voice, "Before we accepted their sponsorship, we didn't expect them to be like this. Now, some people don't care about the spirit of the contract. I don't know where they heard it from, but they think that as long as they offer us money, they can get an award in exchange…"

Before the assistant could finish speaking, the slightly chubby man spoke again, "It's not that I want to say this, but your awards aren't even a big deal! You might as well give an award to whoever gives you money. Otherwise, who are you giving these awards to? What are you doing with so much sponsorship? I've seen this kind of thing many times. How much do you want? Name a price!"

All the staff members were trembling with anger. "Please speak with respect. Our awards have been around for 50 years and have always been based on the principle of fairness. The directors, actors, and works that are chosen are also widely recognized by the public. What you're saying is slander!"

That person didn't think much of it. "Alright, since you're unwilling to negotiate, I'll call a few more sponsors over and we'll discuss it together."

All the things used in the Golden Crown Film Awards needed sponsorship. The event itself did not have any profitable output. The expenses were all dependent on sponsorship.

Many people were just looking for an advertisement effect. They did not expect that a group of people would actually want to turn the tables.

Huang Shitao said to his assistant, "Refund the sponsorship of these people. Then, get everyone to come over for a meeting."

During the meeting, everyone who attended probably knew why the meeting was held.

Huang Shitao's expression was also a little heavy.

The old judge said slowly, "The trend of exchanging sponsorships for awards is not good. Once it starts, there'll be endless trouble in the future. The people below are already like this. I think we… have to adhere to our original principle."

"That's right. If we're already like this, how can we have the face to talk to those people about fairness in the future?"

"Once the trend is formed, not to mention them but even our internal department won't be able to change these habits."

Everyone was dedicated to the real film industry. Although they each had their own selfish motives, that did not stop them from having a conscience.

Although today's matter did not blow up in the end, it was a warning to everyone.

"That's true. Even if we want to develop the film industry and help the entire industry, there are other ways to do so. We shouldn't be completely dependent on JR and Qiao Jierou now. I think we should reconsider the winner of this award."

After Huang Shitao heard this, he said, "Then, let's vote again for this award."

…

The red carpet of the Golden Crown Film Awards…

Tonight, most of the people in S Country's film industry were gathered here.

On the red carpet, all kinds of famous celebrities, past award-winning actors and actresses, heavyweight producers in the industry, famous directors, and so on appeared.

Qiao Jierou was not late. She held Lin Heng's arm and was sitting in the car.

The car stopped in front of the red carpet. She adjusted her jewelry necklace and took a deep breath nervously.

There were still people on the red carpet in front of her. She still had a few minutes to adjust.

"Brother Heng, do you think Mr. Huang…" Qiao Jierou was a little worried that Huang Shitao would not give this award to her.

Huang Shitao had never promised her directly that he would definitely give her the award. It was just that during the previous discussion, the meaning of JR sponsoring the film awards was obvious.

"Believe in yourself. You can definitely do it," Lin Heng said, his gaze fixed on her jewelry necklace.

When Qiao Jierou received the jewelry, she also realized that her jewelry was of a slightly higher grade than the other nominees. Were the organizers hinting to her that the award was hers?

She had thought about it herself previously and was not too sure. Seeing Lin Heng's gaze, she said in surprise, "So, Brother Heng, do you also think that the grade of jewelry also shows a difference in the wearer's status tonight?"

"Well, yes. They don't do aimless things. I believe it's a positive hint from Mr. Huang."

It was Qiao Jierou's turn to get out of the car and walk the red carpet.

She held Lin Heng's arm and stepped on the red carpet. Flashes went off around her, illuminating her face.

She raised her head confidently and followed Lin Heng's footsteps.

Qiao Weiyang's car slowly drove to the red carpet. Tao Huan checked her jewelry and clothes for the last time.

"This set of jewelry was given by the organizers. We'll change to CL's jewelry later." Tao Huan confirmed that there was no problem and said, "Okay, very good."

Qiao Weiyang stepped out of the car and stood still on the red carpet with her long legs before walking forward.

Tonight, she was wearing a cloud-white fishtail dress. It was very fitting and outlined every part of her body perfectly.

There were already many flashes, but when she appeared, it was as if there were suddenly several times more. The fans who came to welcome her also let out endless screams.

Qiao Weiyang waved to everyone and walked forward.

Seeing the friends she was familiar with, she nodded in greeting, and her expression relaxed.

After walking to the front of the stage and taking some photos, she walked in with the usher. The inner venue was the event location of the cocktail party. The waiter carried all kinds of wine and shuttled among the guests for them to take from at any time.

Qiao Weiyang casually took a glass with a calm expression.

"Hello, Sister." Qiao Jierou greeted her.

Her goal was only to observe the CL Jewelry on Qiao Weiyang's chest.

Apart from the celebrities endorsed by other jewelry brands tonight, the rest of them were basically wearing CL's jewelry. The jewelry everyone was wearing was roughly compatible with their status.

Qiao Jierou had already asked around about the other Best Actress nominees and knew that everyone's jewelry was one grade lower than hers.

She just did not know what Qiao Weiyang was wearing.

After she finished speaking, her gaze landed on Qiao Weiyang's necklace. Upon closer inspection, she realized that it was the same as the other nominees. Its grade was slightly lower than hers, and a smile bloomed on Qiao Jierou's face.

She was finally certain that she had convinced Huang Shitao.

Her gown was indeed not as high-end as Qiao Weiyang's, but her jewelry was much better than Qiao Weiyang's.
