Chapter 520: Sister Jing and Luo Mo
At the red carpet, Luo Mo and Xu Chujing had already walked past.
Leaving behind only the media on-site, who frantically recorded those eight words he had just spoken: "【Uphold the rights of the living, speak for the dead】."
In the Live Broadcast rooms of Penguin Video and Pineapple TV, the audience suddenly felt the charm of the forensic profession.
Some even left comments in the bullet screen: "Suddenly want to study forensics!"
However, as soon as this sentence came out, people immediately started making memes.
"Urging people to study medicine, may you be struck by lightning."
"Urging people to study law, may you be hacked to pieces."
"Good heavens, you're studying forensics!"
Of course, some netizens were also popularizing science for everyone: "In fact, forensic scientists are in short supply all over the world."
In this world, the demand for this profession is far greater than the total number of practitioners.
This is also why everyone feels this profession is incredibly distant from their own lives.
For many people, perhaps they have many acquaintances who study medicine or work in the medical industry, so it feels very close to their lives.
Forensics... that really isn't the case.
Doctors, in the eyes of many, are a decent profession.
Forensics, that involves dealing with corpses.
It always makes people feel a bit squeamish.
Yet Luo Mo's words seemed to add a sacred cloak to this profession.
Yes, the dead cannot speak.
But I can speak for them!
A multitude of emotions converged, turning into—anticipation for Luo Mo's new drama, "Forensic Qin Ming"!
………
………
Inside the auditorium, Xu Chujing, wearing a black evening gown, held the arm of Luo Mo, who was wearing a black suit, and said, "What you just said sounds pretty cool."
"Right? Actually, I think the profession of forensics itself is quite cool."
This is a sacred yet difficult profession.
Xu Chujing looked at him and said, "Just by guessing, I really don't know what aspects you're going to write about in this script."
"Want to see?" Luo Mo said.
"A little." Xu Chujing said with a soft laugh.
"Then beg me nicely tonight." Luo Mo reached out and gently patted the palm she had placed on his arm.
Xu Chujing raised her hand and pinched him.
The two whispered to each other while looking for their seats in the grand auditorium.
For such a grand ceremony, the order of walking the red carpet is arranged by the organizers, and the seating chart is also planned out.
Often, at such ceremonies, the most eye-catching news falls into three categories.
The first category, of course, is the attribution of the awards.
The second category is the competition of beauty and glamour on the red carpet.
The third category is people sitting in the wrong seats.
There are even some celebrities who will tear off other people's name tags to stick them in the back, and then tear off their own name tags to stick them on the front-row seats.
All sorts of messy, outrageous operations happen.
Reality, indeed, is more bizarre than fiction.
Xu Chujing didn't have such worries; she would never do things like relying on bizarre costumes or bold exposure to attract attention.
At the same time, as a proper Best Actress, her seat was certainly a good one.
The organizers of the White Rose were very thoughtful and arranged for Luo Mo and Xu Chujing's seats to be together.
Ding Xiaoyu and Shen Yinuo were in the row behind them.
Luo Chun, Zhou Tong, and the others also had good seats; after all, they were from the National Theatre of China, and among the three major organizers of the White Rose, there was also the Review Department.
Once Shen Yinuo sat down, she leaned forward and chattered, asking Xu Chujing: "Wow, Jing, how did you train for these right-angle shoulders, and this swan neck? Why can't I train for them no matter what!"
Luo Mo wanted to turn back and roast her, but when he turned, from his angle, all he saw were various curves and cleavages.
He could only smile sheepishly, look straight ahead, and let the women chat about topics he couldn't understand.
If it were about how to train abs, he would have some insights.
As for this swan neck, beautiful back, or peach buttocks, he only knew how to appreciate them and touch them, not how to train them.
——"Experience School".
After the red carpet ended and everyone was seated, the ceremony officially began.
Today's ceremony was actually called the Shanghai Television Festival.
The awards presented were called the White Rose Award.
A large number of viewers watching the Live Broadcast felt that Luo Mo would win several major awards for "Nirvana in Fire", but no one expected that the first nomination Luo Mo received would have nothing to do with "Nirvana in Fire".
It even... had nothing to do with television dramas!
This award was called Best Animated Film.
The Shanghai Television Festival not only evaluates serial dramas but also evaluates animation, variety shows, and documentaries.
In the past, this award would not be placed at the very beginning. But perhaps because the animation industry has been flourishing and developing explosively in recent years, in order to encourage it and show importance, it was moved up from the corner time slot.
Luo Mo and He Yuanguang received a nomination for "Fog Hill of the Five Elements".
This left many people dumbfounded.
"What kind of operation is this!"
"Coming right out of the gate with an Animation nomination!"
"This person has too many side jobs, he's too much of a grinder!"
"I'm truly impressed, don't you all forget, 'Classic of China' was also planned by him!"
"Having so many crossovers, he's just an Ox!"
In the end, "Fog Hill of Five Elements," which was named and praised by CCTV and major official media and received countless accolades for its ink-wash painting style, took home the White Rose for Best Animated Film.
He Yuanguang did not come today; Guang Shu is sick.
Amidst a round of applause, Luo Mo stood up alone and went on stage to accept the award.
His acceptance speech was very simple, mainly mentioning the contributions of He Yuanguang and others.
The other animation professionals in the audience who had received nominations looked at him, and they had no objections; on the contrary, their applause was incredibly enthusiastic.
In the animation industry, Luo Mo is truly the God Luo, a god-like existence.
Whether it is animated films or major animated movies like "Monkey King: Hero is Back," they have all accelerated the development of the entire industry.
This person has truly turned the tide and injected new vitality into the entire domestic animation industry!
We are all just reaping the benefits of his work.
As for the second award, it is for Best Animated Screenplay.
This time, "Fog Hill of Five Elements" was also nominated, but it did not win.
No other reason, it's just too short!
It's as short as a trailer; if you know how to write, then write more for me!
Writing it so short, are you looking down on us, thinking we can't afford to watch it?
In reality, it is also because there are only two animation awards, and the organizers have their own considerations, so they are unlikely to give both to a single animation.
Who could have imagined that this was just the beginning, and Luo Mo already had two nominations and one trophy.
He put down the trophy and whispered into Xu Chujing's ear: "It's a good thing the seating is arranged close to the stage; if it were far away, walking back and forth later would be a bit tiring."
Xu Chujing couldn't help but nudge him with her elbow and said: "Why are you so smug?"
Luo Mo smiled and teased: "No, I'm not smug, I'm arrogant."
The subsequent documentary awards have nothing to do with Luo Mo.
Honestly, if he wanted to put some effort into this area, it really wouldn't be difficult.
On Earth, there are simply too many excellent domestic documentaries!
In this field, there are many highly acclaimed works, and there are also quite a few hits with high popularity.
After all, our country is vast and rich in resources, and the historical foundation is right there.
Luo Mo has also watched some documentaries on Blue Star.
Honestly, they are quite good too.
He personally quite likes watching documentaries, feeling that he can learn something from them.
Once the documentary awards were finished, it was time for Best TV Variety Show.
Web Variety Shows do not count here.
Therefore, shows like "Creating Idols" and "Director Show" don't even have the qualifications to be selected.
Ning Dan has long been known as the Godmother of Talent Shows; in the variety show field, she is among the top tier of people.
But she has never won a major award, even though she has made quite a few variety shows broadcast on television stations.
Being popular is useless.
Having high buzz is useless.
However, after Luo Mo intervened, everything became different.
The award presenter stood on stage, reading out the nominations.
"The nominees for the White Rose Best TV Variety Show are..."
"Zhou Haoran, 'Poetry and Painting'."
"Luo Mo, Ning Dan, 'Classic of China'!"
"..."
The camera gave a close-up of the nominees' faces; Luo Mo sat there looking calm, while Run Jie was visibly nervous.
Her seat was quite far from Luo Mo's side; one could see on the big screen that her red lips were tightly pursed, and her smile was not very natural.
Luo Mo could tell that Ning Dan had dressed up meticulously today.
In the past, when meeting Ning Dan, it was either at her home or while recording a variety show.
Recording variety shows is tiring and has many tasks, so she certainly wouldn't dress up carefully, opting for whatever was comfortable.
When drinking at home, she would occasionally dress up carefully, looking exceptionally moving, and occasionally she would be exceptionally casual; Luo Mo didn't understand why this was.
For Ning Dan, this was the time with the highest probability of winning. The more this was the case, the more nervous she became.
Because she knew very well that if she couldn't win an award with a variety show like "Classic of China" this time, she might really not have the fate for it.
On stage, another male award presenter opened the list of winners and then handed it to his companion to take a look.
The two looked at each other and smiled, then said loudly: "Congratulations to Luo Mo, congratulations to Ning Dan! The winner is—'Classic of China'!"
The whole venue immediately erupted in enthusiastic applause, and Xu Chujing also stood up to applaud.
Before going on stage, she and Luo Mo shared an Embrace as usual, but during this process, her lips moved, and she said in a slightly muffled voice: "You are not allowed to hug on stage."
"Saying it so unclearly, are you afraid of being lip-read by others?" Luo Mo smiled and whispered: "Command."
But what Luo Mo didn't expect was that Run Jie, who had always been a strong-woman type in his eyes, had slightly reddened eyes after accepting the award.
When giving her acceptance speech, there was also a slight sob in her voice.
After stepping off the stage, since the directions to their seats were different, they had to part ways in the aisle.
Before parting, Ning Dan looked up at Luo Mo and said softly, "Thank you."
Winning an award, it seems, had long been a major obsession of hers.
After returning to her seat and sitting down, Ning Dan lowered her head to look at the trophy resting on her round, full thighs.
Although the award presenter had called both her and Luo Mo's names, there was only one trophy.
On the trophy, both of their names were written.
"Ning Dan, Luo Mo." She looked at it and smiled sweetly.
All of her mature charm vanished for a moment, as if she were a young girl.
