Long Dahai happened to come from next door. He was carrying two ironed suits, one black and one white. They were the gowns he had prepared for them to attend the awards ceremony.
As soon as he walked out of the entrance, he looked up and bumped into Jin Fengze, who was on the phone.
He looked at Long Dahai, but his words were directed at the other end of the phone. His face was obviously more delighted than surprised, but his tone was completely different from his expression as he pretended to be regretful. “I see. The award ceremony is about to start, but this happened. It’s really regrettable…but don’t worry, we always paid taxes legally. There are no such problems. It definitely won’t affect the upcoming award ceremony!”
Long Dahai was confused. He stood where he was with his suit in his hand and stared at Jin Fengze with a curious expression.
When Jin Fengze hung up the phone, Long Dahai quickly went forward and asked, “is it a call from the organizer?”
“Aiya…” Jin Fengze sighed happily. He poked the screen with his finger and hung up.
Long Dahai: “???”
“Our strongest competitor this time, the director of Fatal Escape Island was found to have evaded taxes! The nomination was canceled!”
Long Dahai could hear him clearly.
Then, she gasped. “Why is it so sudden?!”
“Hmph!” Jin Fengze snorted and said, “I told you long ago that if you want to go far, don’t take advantage of the loopholes in the law!”
Long Dahai nodded repeatedly, his expression half-smiling.
Who said it that day?
Unless a UFO could descend from the sky and take away Fatal Escape Island, Qingqiu Tactics would definitely accompany them this time.
Although there were no UFO, the tax bureau was here!
How could they be so lucky!
Now that the only competitor left was “The President of the Black Gang Fell in Love with Me”, their production team’s success rate had greatly increased!
Long Dahai’s eyes were sparkling. “Should I…have you booked the location of the celebration party that night in advance?”
“There’s no rush. Let’s calm down first!” Jin Fengze said as he suppressed his emotions.
At the same time, the tenth floor downstairs was a mess.
Nan Miaomiao opened the door and wanted to go out to watch the show, but Lu Shang held her head and pulled her back.
In the corridor, the people who were arguing were the crew members of “Escape Island” who were originally living on the tenth floor. The assistant had already packed their luggage. The girl with the studded eyebrow asked her manager.
“Aren’t we sure we’ll win this award? Why are we suddenly disqualified?”
It was not just about the award. She had not seen that girl for the past few days and was thinking of setting up a trap to take Su Ji down on the day of the award ceremony.
But now that the award ceremony was right before their eyes, they were removed from the list?
“Aiyo…” The manager’s face was livid as he tried to persuade her. “Don’t ask anymore. I’ll tell you in the car later.”
“No way.” She flung his hand away. She was in high heels, and her aura was surging. “You better make yourself clear now! We’re not leaving until we make things clear!”
Seeing her insistence, the manager sighed and whispered the truth into her ear.
The female celebrity frowned and leaned back. “What??”
She clenched her fists tightly, and the hardcore metal knuckles from a certain fashion brand made a creaking sound.
The other female celebrities in the same group also came over to ask for the reason. After getting the answer from their manager, they all had surprised and angry expressions.
The assistant had already dragged their luggage to the elevator. They had just arrived in Golden Town but had to return home in disgrace. When this matter spread to M Nation, it would not just affect the award.
What a failure of a director!
All he did was ruin things!
He had tricked them all!
Everyone cursed their director a hundred times in their hearts, but they didn’t know that the director was actually the real disaster!
He still could not figure out who he had offended by keeping a low profile ever since he came to Golden Town.
However, the truth was no longer important. The outcome was already set. They were eliminated.
The enthusiasm for the award ceremony for the Qingqiu Tactics was doubled, and the staff behind the scenes were full of energy.
The day before the award ceremony, they had to finish all the vlogs and post them on the official Weibo.
Finally, they created another wave of momentum.
Liang Ruifeng received the news from the scriptwriter and quickly logged into his alternate account to like the vlog. He even posted a narcissistic recommendation that he had edited in advance.
He could also foresee that his part might not be as good as Nan Miaomiao and Su Ji’s, so he asked his agency to help him buy engagement. Otherwise, he would lose face as the male lead.
His manager originally had the same intention, but when the official website released their vlog, Liang Ruifeng received a WeChat message from his manager…
[ “Don’t buy fake reviewers for now. Focus on the award ceremony.” ]
Liang Ruifeng didn’t know why his manager suddenly changed his mind. He reacted for a few seconds and glared at him.
No way!
Could it be that his video was naturally more popular than Su Ji’s?
That would really save money!
After thinking about it, he quickly switched back to the official website and found the data comparison of the two videos an hour after they were released.
Nan Miaomiao vs Su Ji: 9033 reposts, 22,000 comments, 108,000 likes, a total of 1,294,000 views.
And his…
Nan Miaomiao vs Liang Ruifeng: 511 reposts, 3403 comments, 3752 likes, a total of 56,000 views.
Liang Ruifeng: “…”
He refreshed it again. All the data had changed a little, but the ratio remained the same.
Liang Ruifeng: “…”
Although he didn’t want to admit it, he seemed to understand.
His manager wanted to save money. It was just that it also implied something else…
Generally speaking, a normal video’s views should be about five to ten times the number of comments. Liang Ruifeng noticed that the number of comments for his video was much higher than this ratio.
He insisted that this might be evidence of the fans’ affirmation of his hard work.
Not many people watched it, but there were many comments, which meant that everyone liked his video very much.
The bad data might be because the platform didn’t promote the video.
The next second, Liang Ruifeng opened the comments section.
[ “Hahahahaha! I’m powerless to complain!” ]
[ “This is the male lead who has the worst sense of presence!” ]
[ “I can feel Ms. Nan’s awkwardness even through the camera!” ]
[ “I couldn’t help but come back to diss it after I left! If it doesn’t work next time, let’s use two female leads, hahahahaha!” ]
Liang Ruifeng: “…”

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the award ceremony.
Pei Huai drove Su Ji to Henry Hotel to meet up with the production team.
Her custom-made gown, shoes, accessories, and so on were placed in the trunk.
In the passenger seat, Su Ji was texting Long Dahai.
Pei Huai could feel that his wife was in a good mood today. He had never seen her that excited for an award ceremony.
He couldn’t guess the reason.
Just as he retracted his gaze and looked straight ahead as he drove, Su Ji typed a question on her phone.
[ “Director Long, can you confirm that we can see the two male leads of “The President of the Black Gang Fell in Love with Me” in person today?” ]
