Chapter 111: The Most Powerful Ghost (1)
The hashtag #YeSuiBerlinFilmFestival was getting more and more popular on Weibo. When netizens searched Ye Sui’s name, they saw the photo posted by Deng Zhi’s team.
In it, Deng Zhi was on the ground and Ye Sui was reaching out to help. This photo had spread all over the Internet in a flashed.
“Hahahaha! what is going on with Deng Zhi’s fake fall? Does she intend to buy people’s pity again with that look on her face? The problem is that there are so many people on the red carpet, and everyone saw that Ye Sui definitely didn’t trip her!”
“Ye Sui is too pretentious. She always gives me a sense of arrogance. Does she think she is awesome after being nominated at the Berlin Film Festival?”
“Pretentious? What kind of environment did you grow up in? I think you have never seen a good person. Ye Sui was kind enough to help Deng Zhi, yet she was still misinterpreted. Open your eyes and recognize that the hypocrite here is obviously Deng Zhi, got it?”
“I’m sorry if my idol was shortlisted for the three major film festivals. If you can’t accept it, let your idol be shortlisted.”
“Why doesn’t Deng Zhi look in the mirror? How can she be called “Little Ye Sui”? She has lost our face on the red carpet abroad. Such an embarrassment.”
Local netizens were arguing whether Deng Zhi’s fall was a pretense. However, the foreign media was only focused on Ye Sui, taking pictures of her on the red carpet.
In the foreign news photos, only Ye Sui reaching out her hand was present. Deng Zhi, who was on the ground, was conveniently ignored, without any exception.
Ye Sui looked stunning as she bowed her head. Her solo photo was liked and shared on social media, and netizens were inquiring about the Asian actress.
Contrary to expectations, Ye Sui’s picture of a black swan bending down became famous on the Internet.
Despite the raging discussions on the Internet, Ye Sui quietly waited for the Berlin results to come out. She paid close attention to the rating of <Ning Ling> by foreign audiences and media.
After the premiere, the rating of <Ning Ling> exploded at the Berlin Film Festival.
Film critics commented on the Internet, stating that it was possibly the best movie and performance at the festival.
More and more foreign audiences shed tears when they left the cinema. They did not know who “Ye Sui” was, but they all remembered her heartbreaking portrayal of Ning Ling.
Was there anyone in the world who could portray Ning Ling? If someone had asked this question a month ago, the answer would be a definite no.
But now, everyone’s answer was remarkably consistent: only Ye Sui.
A few days later, <Ning Ling> had already been voted number one by the foreign press for the “most-recommended movie at the Berlin Film Festival”.
With a domestic movie having such a high evaluation on the Internet and Ye Sui being praised by the harsh foreign media, she was likely to be this year’s Berlin Film Queen.
The piece of news was indeed exciting. Netizens who couldn’t see it yet marked the movie as the most anticipated.
They wanted to know whether Ye Sui’s high reputation was due to her good acting skills or her unforgettable beauty.
The farce on the red carpet at the opening ceremony was already ignored. Everyone had long forgotten who Deng Zhi was.
On the day of the awards ceremony, Ye Sui changed into another dress.
This time, instead of being low-key as she was at the opening ceremony, she wore a sky blue elegant dress with pearl earrings. It was ethereal and noble.
Sitting in the hall, the crew of <Ning Ling> all looked happy. The film’s unanimous praise on the public network proved that their efforts had not been in vain.
In fact, they didn’t really care about the result. Xi Zhao was just bidding farewell to the film industry for his lover Ning Ling.
When the best actress was announced, the camera lens focused on Ye Sui’s face. Her expression was calm, unlike a first-time nominee.
When the honored guest read Ye Sui’s name, the audience burst into loud applause. For the first time ever, Berlin’s Film Queen was unexpectedly a newcomer, Ye Sui.
Surprising, but convincing.
The news was immediately posted on the forums by netizens. [Good news! Ye Sui won the best actress award at the Berlin Film Festival!]
“Ah, ah, ah, ah, I’m going to go crazy! As an avid fan, to think there would be such a day. It’s an honor! Ye Sui should continue to work hard.”
