Chapter 676 Aren’t You the Same?

Tonight, Bae Suzy, who was the host, looked very radiant in front of the camera. She wore a slim and fitted black long dress that showed her waistline and hipline to the fullest. Her long black hair was lifted to the right side of her cheek and hung in front of her chest, making the skin next to it look even whiter. She wore a shiny chain earring on the left ear, which kept shaking with her movements.

However, these were all embellishments. The biggest highlight was the not-so-deep gap under the low-cut dress.

Although it was not very deep, even so, according to Chi Jingyuan's understanding of her size, even a gathered bra should not be able to do this. She must have used some makeup techniques, such as applying a little shadow on the side of the gap...

Looking at Chi Jingyuan, he shook his head in his heart.

Speaking of these people, female artists like Bae Suzy and Lin Yuner who often host important evening parties, are obviously very poor, but they don’t think about how to cover up their blemishes. Instead, they always have to wear low-necked clothes, and then squeeze around very deliberately to deceive the inexperienced beginners in front of the screen.

Is this what the more you lack, the more you have to show it...

"Get ready to go on stage..."

At this time, the stage manager came to remind him, and Chi Jingyuan immediately stood up, facing the mirror next to him to adjust his clothes, and at the same time, he also helped Gao Axing who was wearing high heels and it was not very convenient. The two walked to the entrance of the stage to wait for the performance.

"The 52nd Baeksang Arts Awards has officially begun."

"Inside, the first is the TV department's new acting award." Bae Su held the script in her hand but didn't look at it. She smiled beautifully at the camera and began to announce: "The award presenters are last year's winners, actors Chi Jingyuan and Gao Axing."

Amid applause, Chi Jingyuan and the other person walked onto the stage and stood in front of the standing microphone.

Even though Gao Axing was wearing super high heels, she was still pulled down by half her head when she stood next to him. When Ji Jingyuan showed up, many viewers who were watching the live broadcast of the evening party, especially the fans who came specifically for him, suddenly brightened their eyes. Even in Baeksang Arts Festival, a place where big-name actors and all kinds of handsome men gather, their idol still looks outstanding.

"Aniha Saiyo, Ji Jingyuan is a meter..."

Baeksang Arts Festival has been participated in many times. Although it is the first time to present awards, Ji Jingyuan is not nervous at all. After introducing himself very naturally, there is no extra words. He quickly began to speak the award speech: "Every time I stand here, whether it is winning or presenting an award, I will be very nervous. When I received the award last year, it was blank. Because I was too nervous, I have forgotten what I said at that time..."

"Ha..."

"It's almost the same now. I have forgotten what I said in the last second..."

"Haha..."

But I will try my best to do it well. Now let's take a look at the winner of this year's TV department male newcomer acting award..." Short Zan's speech caused several laughs from the audience. After a few rehearsed interactions with Gao Axing, Chi Jingyuan directly led the audience to the candidate VCR.

This year's Baeksang Newcomer Award was dominated by "Reply 1988". There were three candidates for the drama alone, and the other two were just runners-up.

After the VCR was played, the big screen showed the five candidates. The Newcomer Award, an award that can only be won once, is very important to everyone. It can be seen that several people are very nervous.

After a little suspense, the two award presenters began to announce: "The 52nd Baeksang Arts Awards, TV Department, Male Newcomer Acting Award... "Reply 1988", Yoo Jun-yeol, congratulations! ”

With a burst of cheers and applause, Yoo Jun-yeol stood up excitedly and hugged his crewmates to celebrate, then walked onto the stage with big strides, bowed 90 degrees to Chi Jingyuan and the other award presenters very respectfully, took the trophy from them after returning the greeting, then stood in front of the microphone and began to speak happily.

Chi Jingyuan gave up the leading role, stood by and listened to his speech, clapping gently, and thought it was quite interesting.

Yoo Jun-yeol's appearance is not a standard handsome guy in the eyes of the public, and it can even be said that he is not good-looking. When "Please Answer" was popular last year, he was often He was attacked by the audience and passers-by for his appearance.

However, as he became popular with the TV series, fewer and fewer people said this. I don’t know when the simple "ugly" in the past turned into "ugly and handsome". His appearance that has not changed at all has received completely different evaluations... It's a magical development, but this is how this circle works.

And he won the Baeksang Newcomer Award one year after his debut, which is really smooth.

After Yoo Jun-yeol received the award, it was the turn of the women's department:

"Next is the TV department's tender, the female newcomer acting award... "Cheese in the Trap", Kim Go-eun, rough card! ”

The fact that Lee Hye-ri, the heroine of the popular “Reply”, missed the Best Newcomer Award was beyond many people’s expectations. However, Kim Go-eun, who started out in the film industry, did have praise for her acting skills. She debuted in 2012 and has starred in many films and received high praise. She won the Best Newcomer Award for her first TV drama at the beginning of this year, proving her strength.

When Chi Jingyuan was listening to the speech, he suddenly found it interesting... Kim Go-eun, who has short hair and looks like a boy, seems to be of the same type as Yoo Jun-yeol in terms of appearance.

After the award ceremony, Ji Jingyuan breathed a sigh of relief. After returning to the backstage and saying goodbye to Gao Woxing, he went directly back to the party hall through a special passage. He was led by the staff to the row where the actors of "Signal" sat. There was a seat reserved for him here.

He bowed gently while walking inside. When he passed by, directors Kim Won-seok and Kim Hye-soo took a photo of him very intimately.

Ji Jingyuan's seat was at the back of the guest seats. The same row was full of actors and creative staff of the "Signal" crew, and the row behind was the "Descendants of the Sun" crew. Sitting diagonally behind him were Song Zhongji and Song Hye-kyo.

After the two of them went public, they sat together when they attended the Baeksang Arts Festival. When Ji Jingyuan walked in just now, he seemed to see the two of them holding hands as if they had just separated.

Tsk tsk, a little envious...

After sitting in his seat, Chi Jingyuan first chatted quietly with a few acquaintances next to him, and then he quietly became an audience. As expected, he only had to applaud throughout the entire evening party tonight, and he didn't need to stand up much...

But it can't be said that within two minutes, the writer of "Signal" Jin Enxi won the Best Screenplay Award. Chi Jingyuan quickly stood up and said "Congratulations", and gently hugged the writer Nuna who took good care of him.

After presenting awards to several behind-the-scenes staff, it was soon time for one of the highlights of today, the Popularity Award. In order to expand the market and expand its influence, the program team invited well-known mainland actors Bo Shu and Lee Jong Suk to present the awards together.

It's just a pity that the interaction between the two people who don't speak the same language on the stage looks awkward, and the audience can't understand what he said, even if there is a translator standing behind him, it doesn't make any difference.

"…The winners of the Popularity Award in the TV Drama Department at the 52nd Baeksang Arts Awards…Song Joong-ki, Song Hye-kyo, congratulations!" Under Uncle Bo's plastic Korean, two names that had long been expected by most of the audience were announced.

In the voting, Song Joong-ki's biggest competitor Chi Jingyuan showed a standard smile and clapped sincerely, looking not disappointed at all… In addition to the fact that the camera was shooting him, it was also because he had expected it long ago and really didn't care much about this Popularity Award.

Then cheers broke out, and the two Songs stood up from their seats and looked at each other affectionately, and then walked out in high spirits. Song Joong-ki buttoned up his suit and looked very handsome, while Song Hye-kyo lifted the hem of her long skirt and was very elegant. They walked towards the stage one after the other with BGM.

When climbing the steps of the stage, Song Joong-ki turned back carefully and held Song Hye-kyo's hand, who was inconvenient to climb the steps because of her long skirt and high heels. He pulled her up with his boyfriend power, which immediately caused a crazy cheer from the fans on the scene.

Unlike the previous awards ceremony, which only gave a winning shot and then cut away, this time, from the moment Song Zhongji and his friends stood up, the director's perspective locked on them, tracking every step from the guest seats to the stage, as if they were broadcasting a red carpet walk...

Chi Jingyuan felt that it was a bit exaggerated.

It was obviously just a popularity award that even senior Yoona didn't want to win again, but the organizer made a fuss and style that looked more grand than the grand prize. The Song-Song couple is indeed the most popular among the popular ones, and he didn't lose unfairly at all.

If he had won Song Zhongji, this kind of grand show full of highlights would not be seen, and the couple would be separated, not to mention that the scene would be very awkward at this time. Should the director give the camera to him, or to Song Zhongji, who was watching his girlfriend and others receive the award in the audience, and whose expression was more interesting?

Maybe Song Hye Kyo couldn't even get up the steps of the stage, and the award couldn't be presented...

...

After the Popularity Award in the film department was presented to Do Kyung Soo and Bae Suzy, the following evening party was just as Chi Jingyuan expected, and he didn't need to stand up anymore. He just clapped and gave some reactions and it progressed slowly.

But it was easy.

Nearly two hours later, it was the second half of the Baeksang Art Festival tonight. In addition to the Popularity Award, one of the highlights of the day was the Best Male Acting Award. The two presenters, last year's winners Lee Sung Min and Song Yoon Ah, came to the stage and started to speak the award speech after some interaction:

"...Next, please look at the candidates for the Best Male Acting Award in the TV department..."

Under his guidance, the big screen began to play the film and television clips of several candidates. Chi Jingyuan, who had been slacking off all night, also focused his attention and began to concentrate on the big screen.

The first one happened to be himself:

"Signal, Ji Jingyuan."

As his face appeared on the screen and several handsome and classic shots of Park Hae-young began to play, there was a burst of cheers from below. It can be heard that there are still many loyal fans of Ji Jingyuan at the scene.

"Descendants of the Sun, Song Zhongji."

"Six Flying Dragons, Yoo Ah-in."

"Signal, Jo Jin-woong."

"Dragon Eight, Zhou Yuan."

Amid the screams, the VCRs of the five candidates finished playing, and Song Yoon-ah opened the small card in her hand: "Okay, TV department, the Best Male Acting Award is now announced..."

At the same time, close-ups of the five candidates appeared on the big screen at this time. Under the gaze of everyone, several people put on faces that were either nervous or relaxed.

Song Joong Ki seemed a little nervous. Although "Descendants of the Sun" was a huge hit, his acting skills have not received much recognition and he needs a heavyweight award to prove himself.

Zhao Zhenxiong also has a point. His performance and interpretation of Li Chaihan in "Signal" received too much praise. He himself is actually quite satisfied with it. The outside world's voice is also very high. It seems a bit unreasonable not to win this award.

Chi Jingyuan, on the other hand, pursed his lips and kept smiling, leaning forward slightly and staring at the big screen.

Because he knew that there was little hope, he did not show too much urgency and anxiety, but even though he knew that he should not win the prize, he did not show that indifferent look.

Just be a little nervous now and a little disappointed later, just right.

Song Yuner looked at the script and smiled:

"In the 52nd session, in the TV department, who won the Best Acting Award for Men..."

…………

"How's it going? You're not disappointed, are you?"

After Baeksang ended, in the backstage corridor, he saw Chi Kyung-won coming over after saying goodbye to others. Park Jae-hyun hurriedly greeted him, handed over a bottle of water, and asked with a smile.

Although I knew in advance that Chi Jingyuan didn't pay much attention to awards, I was still a little worried that his mood would be affected.

"As expected, there were no disappointments."

Chi Jingyuan responded indifferently, threw the 'InStyle Best Fashion Award' trophy to Park Jae-hyun, and at the same time took the water bottle, opened it and took a sip.

"Haha..." Looking at Chi Jingyuan's expression, Park Jae-hyun, who knew him very well, laughed and looked at the trophy in his hand: "Having a trophy is also a comfort. It's not for nothing. I will help you collect it when you get back. inside the showroom

"Forget it." He swallowed the water and said a little stiffly: "What's the value of this award?"

Chi Jingyuan was not in a good mood, but it was not because he didn't get the award.

It was because just now when the party was about to end, he suddenly realized something.

That is, he has participated in Baeksang a few times. In addition to the Newcomer Award, there is also the Popularity Award. Although Shidi was selected twice, he did not win once. This year, even the Popularity Award was moved to Song Joong Ki. In the end, he had to win A consolation prize for comfort.

Isn’t this just like Yoona sunbaenim? And if YoonA sunbaenim comes, she will definitely get a popularity award.

Although the performance of the two people's TV series and their personal evaluations are very different, their performance in awards is very similar.

This made him a little unhappy.

Thinking of this, he felt inexplicably irritable, feeling that he would no longer be able to feel confident and confident in praising his idol with others.

If Lin Yoon-ah hears his praise next time, Yoon-ah-senpai will directly reply, ‘Aren’t you the same? ’, how should he deal with it...

Park Jae-hyun didn't know that Chi Kyung-won had thought so much. After taking the trophy with a smile, he comforted him: "Although it doesn't have much gold content, it is a good souvenir to receive the award with Suzy Xi."

With that said, Park Jae-hyun handed over the mobile phone that Chi Jingyuan had placed with him when he attended the party: "Look, it's been ringing just now... Do you want to attend Baeksang's dinner party later?"

After the Baeksang Awards Ceremony, the organizers held a dinner at a nearby hotel and invited all tonight's guests to attend.

"Well, it wouldn't be a good idea not to go."

Chi Jingyuan returned the water to him, responded, took the phone and looked down at it.

The first one was actually sent by Zhou Ziyu:

"The awards are actually not important. "The Signal" is very good to watch, and Park Hae Young is also very handsome. We all like it."

This girl got awkward and angry after recording "RM" last time, and it wasn't just a little awkward. She didn't even reply to Tianchi Jingyuan's text message the day before yesterday. Apparently, the first time she tore off her name tag left a very bad impression on her, okay. I ignored him for several days.

But unexpectedly, this time Zhou Ziyu did not continue to lose his temper. Instead, he took the initiative to send a text message. It was a comforting text message, and his tone was like coaxing a baby.

Chi Jingyuan took a look at the sending time. It was sent right after the Best Actor award.

It seemed that Chi Jingyuan had deceived her just now with her pursed lips and a somewhat disappointed expression on her face when the Emperor Shi was presenting the award.

Seeing this text message, he suddenly felt better.

Zhou Ziyu seemed to be worried that her comfort was not convincing enough, so she followed up with another one:

"...Jaylen often doesn't win awards."

Seeing this, and imagining Zhou Ziyu's tentative tone and efforts to prove his persuasiveness, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Smiling very happily.

He bent his eyes and tapped the screen quickly: "What about Yilin?"

After sending it with a smile, Chi Jingyuan continued to look down, followed by a text message from Pei Zhuxuan, which was also to comfort him for not getting Shidi. It was also about the same time, and he knew at a glance that she had been paying attention to today. Thoughts at night.

In addition, there are several close friends, and the contents are all very similar. However, Chi Jingyuan was quite moved when he saw it, so he stood here and replied quickly.

"That's right, brother." While saying this, he suddenly remembered something and looked up at Park Jae-hyun next to him.

After shouting, he thought for a few seconds and then said: "Bring me the script of "Goblin" later. I will look at it carefully and then contact the crew..."

"OK."

…………

In a high-end residential complex in Gangnam District, which is also the first underground parking lot near the apartment where Pei Suzy lives, Pei Suzy, who is sitting in the passenger seat of Chi Jingyuan's Mercedes, is taking advantage of the lights of the parking lot. , stroking her face and arranging her hair in front of the mirror on the sun visor.

After Baixiang's party just ended, she and Chi Jingyuan had made an appointment in advance to have a late-night snack together. After going around for a while, she was sent back here by Chi Jingyuan.

"shock……"

She pushed the long hair on both sides of her face behind her ears, and was tilting her head to admire her face in the mirror. At this time, there was a movement next to her, and a mobile phone placed next to the driver's seat suddenly vibrated. It seemed that there was something there. The call came in.

This is Chi Jingyuan's mobile phone.

Pei Xiuzhi glanced at the vibrating mobile phone, with an inexplicable meaning flashing in her eyes, then turned back through the car window and glanced at Chi Jingyuan, who was putting things in the trunk at the rear of the car, with a smile on her lips. meaning.

"boom……"

The car door was closed with a muffled sound. Two minutes later, Chi Jingyuan returned to the car and sat in the driver's seat. When he took a breath and was about to say something, he heard Pei Xiuzhi's voice from beside him:

"My cell phone rang just now."

"Huh?" Chi Jingyuan glanced sideways at her, nodded, and reached out to pick up the phone beside him.

"If you call me at this time, it should be your little mother-in-law."

Pei Xiuzhi looked at the mobile phone in his hand, smoothed her hair, and said with a strange smile, "I really wanted to pick up the phone and chat with her for a while."

"She is older than you, so you have to call her Unnie." Chi Jingyuan shrugged, without raising his head, looking not worried at all: "And this is not what a smart woman like you would do. Things you won’t do.”

Hearing what Chi Jingyuan said, Pei Xiuzhi burst into laughter and seemed quite proud of being acknowledged by him.

She leaned back on the chair and looked at Chi Jingyuan with charming eyes, and her tone was a bit lazy: "Smart women sometimes feel unhappy...like just now."

"What about now?" Chi Jingyuan did not look up.

"I feel better now that I see you." Pei Xiuzhi pursed her lips with a smile, glanced at him delicately, and then played with her fingers, pointing out something: "But your eldest daughter often does this Is it too late to check on you?"

"She never does things like checking posts. In fact..." Chi Jingyuan turned to look at her again, and then continued to look down at the phone, but his tone had an inexplicable meaning: "In terms of intelligence alone, she is actually No worse than you..."

He knew that Pei Zhuxuan was actually very smart and very careful. She could see many things that others didn't care much about.

It's just that he doesn't show it when he gets along with Chi Jingyuan. It may be because relatively speaking, he pays more affection and is somewhat stuck.

But it may be that he doesn't need to show it here.

However, this call was not from Bae Zhuhyun as Suzy thought, but from his agent Park Jaehyun. It was because Ji Kyungwon told him just now about the drama "Goblin" and her relationship with Kim Eunsook. The meeting between the screenwriters.

This brother was very considerate. Seeing that Chi Jingyuan didn't answer the phone, he figured something was wrong with him. He then sent a text message explaining his purpose.
