Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 729: Deeply Rooted Love (174)

At the same time, the largest comprehensive art award ceremony in Country S was held in City A.

It is the most influential and authoritative award ceremony in the nation.

The main actors and crew members of the Chun Jiao TV series were all invited; naturally, Long Tianjiao’s name was on the list, and Gu Lili attended the ceremony in formal attire to receive the award on her behalf.

She was seated next to Liang He, both in the first row, which was also the prime position with the most camera focus.

This award ceremony was broadcast live on the national network and television stations.

Usually, the smaller awards are presented first at the ceremony.

The Newcomer Acting Award was the first to be given out; following a piece of music, last year’s male and female award winners came onstage together to present this year’s awards.

The two actors chatted for a bit before introducing the four nominees.

Long Tianjiao was among them in the big screen, and Gu Lili saw that Liang He’s eyes next to her turned red.

Ever since Long Tianjiao’s accident, everyone had moved on from the shadow of the disaster, except for him.

He became much more withdrawn as if he had lost all his joy.

Gu Lili could see that he needed more time to ease his grief.

When the ultimate award was announced, the Female Newcomer Acting Award indeed went to Long Tianjiao. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"Since Miss Long Tianjiao passed away due to an accident, Miss Gu Lili, the boss of her management company, is here to accept the award on her behalf," announced the host with a smile.

Gu Lili went up to the stage with her dress in hand, said a few words briefly, and then came down.

This was the first award, and although Gu Lili had a premonition that there would be more awards for Long Tianjiao, she did not expect that she and Liang He would also receive the Great Drama Award at this ceremony.

For a newcomer to win the major award in the drama department with just one TV series was indeed extraordinary.

Gu Lili, arm in arm with Liang He, went up the stage together; they each received their awards and when the time came to speak, Gu Lili stood in front of the microphone and opened her mouth confidently, "Tian Jiao was a diligent and hardworking girl. She was decisive and passionate about acting. She studied and honed her skills earnestly, which resulted in her outstanding performance in Chun Jiao. If Tian Jiao knows about this from the beyond, she would surely be moved to tears at this moment. Thank you to her fans for their love, and thank you to the audience for loving our TV series. Thank you, everyone."

She stepped back, and Liang went forward, looked at the trophy in his hand for a moment, then lifted his head and said, "First, I want to thank Director Lang Fabin, screenwriter Bai Zhi’an, and all the actors and staff of this drama. Thanks to the producers for investing in this show. Without everyone working together, we wouldn’t have such an excellent TV series. To be honest, I wasn’t planning to take this role initially because I knew Long Tianjiao since we were kids. I also knew she was a newcomer, and I had my doubts about her acting skills. But she showed me how capable she was through her dedication. I am grateful to have such an excellent co-star and for the joy she brought me..."

At this point, Liang choked up a bit, "This award is a great affirmation and honor of her acting skills. I am proud of her. And to the fans who liked her, I want to say you didn’t choose the wrong person. She was the best."

Screams from the fans were non-stop below the stage, and Liang stepped down with the award.

Chun Jiao made a grand slam at this award ceremony.

Not only did the lead and supporting actors win awards, but the director, screenwriter, and the series itself also received honors.
