Chapter 82 - Red Carpet Star Shine

The secret Kenny Ortega told Megan was simple, on the red carpet she just had to hold on to the inside of Lin Ming Yang's arm and pinch each other as hard as she could when she was nervous, so she could effectively divert her attention and in turn relieve her tension.

Megan was sitting in the welcome car heading to the awards ceremony site before she secretly told Lin Mingyang the unfortunate news, and at the end, she didn't forget to comfort him a couple of times.

"Can we do it another way?" Lin Ming Yang's face was bitterly mournful, the finger marks on his back scratched out by Megan were still a bit painful.

Megan shook her head savagely, then became incomparably gentle, "I'll try not to be nervous, and I'll exert myself very gently!"

"Then let's go faster?" The corner of Lin Ming Yang's mouth twitched unnaturally, from the fact that Megan was now squeezing his arm tightly, one could imagine what kind of agonizing ordeal the next red carpet show was going to be for himself.

The welcome car came to a steady stop in front of the red carpet, the staff on the side pulled open the door on Lin Ming Yang's side of the car, as a customary practice on the red carpet, the male guest had to get off the car first, and then personally pull open the door for the female guest to welcome the other party out of the car, in order to show his gentlemanly demeanor.

When Lin Ming Yang got out of the car, someone in the crowd of spectators separated by the security line on that side of the road excitedly shouted out his name, and then everyone around her followed along and screamed.

He waved at the excited fans on the opposite side of the road, easily pulling on his tuxedo before jogging to the other side of the car door, pulling it open for Megan, holding her left hand, performing a standard gentleman's salute, and welcoming her out of the car.

Megan today wore a fire-red low-cut evening dress, the front neckline open to the chest, while the back is directly exposed the entire back, with her upper half of the perfect body, showing sexy and charming, the lower half of the fishtail long skirt is her graceful figure drenched in the display. The tulle skirt between the occasional high-heeled shoes with pink goatskin rose handbag, all show romantic.

Lin Mingyang is a slim black suit, the temperament of their own masculinity and elegance mixed together, the two this debut, in addition to the fans behind the screams, in front of the red carpet on both sides of the flash is linked together. Despite his inner reluctance, Lin Mingyang still elegantly raised his right arm and let Megan hold it. I didn't expect that as soon as he came up, the other party pinched him fiercely.

Walking on the red carpet, Lin Mingyang smiled brightly as he cooperated with Megan to take pictures, but in his heart, he was silently shedding tears. This was his first time walking down the red carpet, and besides being a little dazzled by the flashing lights on both sides, he was actually a little nervous in his heart. However, the cheering sounds around him made him quickly find his senses, and in order to greet everyone, he only had his free left hand to keep waving to the excited crowd in the distance.

Halfway down the red carpet, Megan finally stabilized her emotions, and at this time she began to feel a little bit sorry for Lin Mingyang, and began to calculate how to "make up" for each other at night. Feeling that Megan's left hand was no longer so stiffly tugging at herself, Lin Ming Yang knew that she had already found the state, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

In the second half of the red carpet, the two of them regained their tacit understanding in front of the camera. The perfect match combination of handsome men and beautiful women made them the most dazzling pair on the red carpet of this year's Emmy Awards, and the organizers, of course, would not miss this excellent selling point, specially arranging for the hosts on the red carpet to conduct a live interview with the two.

"Felix, you and Fox standing together are a match made in heaven!" The hostess used her exaggerated and stunning voice to passionately ask Lin Ming Yang and Megan in front of the microphone, "I heard that not only did you two act together, but you used to go to the same high school?"

"We did go to the same high school!" Lin Ming Yang didn't deny it, "We were nominated for an Emmy because of that!"

The host was asking about his and Megan's relationship in reality, but Lin Ming Yang intentionally interpreted it as the relationship between their characters in the show.

"You're more humorous than I thought!" The hostess laughed chirpily while not forgetting to throw a wink to Lin Ming Yang, "But I'm asking about Moss Middle School, where Song and Dance Youth was set, and it seems like the two of you are still at the same level, haven't you been there before?"

"We were indeed classmates!" Megan was very unhappy with the hostess' "intimate" interview with Lin Ming Yang, so she took the initiative to take over the microphone, "Felix has been studying at Moss Middle School, I transferred there later, at that time he was the captain of the school's basketball team, and I joined the cheerleading team later, so we got to know each other. "

"Just acquaintances?" The hostess finally let Lin Ming Yang go, following the direction her microphone shifted, the photographer across the room moved the camera towards Megan.

"You didn't develop a further relationship like in the movie?"

"Felix is indeed the basketball star in school, but I'm not the talented girl in the drama, in actuality, I wasn't very good at my studies, and then I even took a break from school for acting!" Megan was totally pretending to be an unsophisticated girl at this point.

"What about Felix?"

"He's awesome, he doesn't seem to have gotten better grades for his age, and the principal and teachers have high hopes for him!" Megan Fox grinned mischievously, "In the script for Follies, he merely split himself in half, molded the hero and heroine, and then fell in love with himself!"

"Really?" The hostess was easily fooled by the innocent-looking Megan.

Lin Mingyang looked at the hostess who had been tricked by Megan with pity, wondering how the relationship between hair length and breast size and IQ could be reflected so differently in two women.

After all, the hostess wasn't completely stupefied, she thought of asking Lin Ming Yang for confirmation, "Felix, is that so?"

"I got the inspiration from the biblical story that God created Adam, then used his rib to create Eve, and finally brought them together to give birth to mankind." Lin Mingyang could only help Megan round up her lies at this time, he admired his own quick wits, he was actually able to pull together what Megan's mouth was sublime with the Bible, and it still sounded decent.

"This is the source of the creation of the male and female protagonists of Song and Dance Youth, it's marvelous!"

Megan muttered in a low voice after that hostess left with the photographer in a contented manner:

"Silly woman!"

"I think she still has a nice body!"

Lin Mingyang had just added a sentence when his arm was viciously pinched by Megan.

"Big pervert!"

Lin Ming Yang explained with an aggrieved face, "Men will only be interested in beautiful women with a good figure, this is nature, it has nothing to do with nature!"

All award ceremonies are actually a very boring process, everyone pays attention to it, just want to know whether their favorite stars have won, in this regard, the Emmy Awards adhere to the tradition of not "follow the trend" so that its influence is difficult to compete with the Grammy, Oscars and such awards. Few winners are able to send out any shocking words on stage, like James Cameron yelled out "I am the king of the world" crazy, rummage through the entire Hollywood probably can not find a few.

On stage to receive the award is either excited incoherent, or speak some words of thanks, the most annoying is the kind of speech time must be used up, and speak a pile of useless nonsense. Without the various programs interspersed among them, it was estimated that Lin Mingyang had already begun to doze off at this point.

Of course even though the entire ceremony was boring as hell, Lin Ming Yang still had to at least make sure that his eyes were always open. Because the choreographer and director would cut the scene to the audience from time to time, and the famous guys in the crowd like Lin Ming Yang were the favorite objects for the cameraman's lens to patronize.

On Lin Ming Yang's left hand side sat Kenny Ortega, and on his right was Megan Fox, but right now these two people couldn't be as calm and comfortable as he was in any case. Although Kenny Ortega's face was as calm as water, from the details of his fingers constantly tapping on the armrest, Lin Ming Yang still felt his nervousness. Megan, on the other hand, acted more directly, she kept her lips pursed, her two hands tightly pinched together, and her gaze wandered.

At this time, the award presenter on the stage opened the envelope, and it seemed that the result made him feel a little surprised, so he paused for a moment.

"The award we're about to present below is going to be very interesting, because the winner has a very special status, to be precise he's a movie actor."

The stage "buzzed" with a murmur, and although the results were not directly announced, all eyes were focused on Lin Mingyang.

"Felix, I think you can come up straight away!" The award presenter ended with a cheeky shout towards the stage.

After a brief moment of shock, a round of applause still rang out from the stage, and Lin Ming Yang smiled as he stood up, hugging Megan and Kenny Ortega respectively, and waving his hand at the applauding audience behind him before walking briskly onto the stage.

"Surprised are we?" The award presenter solemnly handed the trophy for Best Actor in the TV Movie category to Lin Mingyang, "I think at this moment, you must have a lot to say to everyone!"

He made way for the microphone on the awards stage, and Lin Ming Yang put the trophy aside before putting his head in front of the microphone:

"I know what everyone really cares about is just this result, so I just want to say, thank you!"

After he finished speaking, there was no further comment, no one on stage applauded, and the award presenters froze to the side, all of them having a common question in their hearts:

"Is this the end?"

This was probably the shortest speech in the entire awards ceremony, and when they saw that Lin Mingyang, who had just won the award, was walking towards the stage with the trophy in his hand, the crowd only reacted to the fact that the guy had really finished! The belated applause continued until Lin Ming Yang walked back to his seat, during which time there were still audience members backstage whistling and trumpeting, Lin Ming Yang's acceptance speech made them feel cool.

The host tried to open his mouth several times, but he couldn't stop the clamor of the audience on stage, the award that was to be given out next made Megan hold her breath, her eyes were closed, and she was silently praying in her heart.

Waiting for the award presenter to shout out "Megan Fox", she suddenly covered her face and cried, helpless Lin Mingyang can only take her into his arms, gently patted her back and comforted a few words, which coaxed the emotionally uncontrollable Megan to stop crying, went on stage to receive the award.

Received the trophy Megan face delicate makeup has been crying, sexy wildcat now turned into a kitten, but beautiful still, she choked a little to deliver their own acceptance speech, and Lin Mingyang compared to Megan so reaction is considered more normal.

After returning to the stage, Megan cried again in Lin Mingyang's arms, Kenny Ortega had to stand out to cover for the two, holding both in his arms, which did not cause excessive attention from the media on the scene.

When Kenny Ortega himself on stage to receive the award, his performance is no better than Megan, some incoherent after delivering his own speech, excited, he even forgot to take on his own trophy, ready to go off stage.

To the good-natured laughter of the audience, he ran back for another trip. No one could deny that Kenny Ortega's overflowing talent was one of the major keys to the success of Follies, so his award was well deserved, and everyone gave a big round of applause to the guy who had just picked up the first directing trophy of his life.

In the TV Movie category, the final award was given out for Best Screenplay. Lin Mingyang, who was already holding an Emmy in his hands, was also on the list of nominated winners. The expression on the face of that award presenter on stage became wonderful as he opened the envelope.

"I hope that after announcing the names of the winners, everyone's cheers don't topple the roof of the venue!" His humorous opening remarks amused the audience on stage, "Congratulations Felix Lin, you are definitely the luckiest winner tonight!"

Just as he had predicted the outcome earlier, the applause from the stage and the cheers from the fans in the back rows swept through the venue with a mountainous momentum, and Lin Ming Yang bowed in each of the three directions where the audience was seated under the stage before the venue gradually quieted down.

"In order to live up to everyone's applause, I think you can say a few more words this time!" Before he gave his acceptance speech, that awarding guest kindly reminded him.

Lin Mingyang nodded his head in acknowledgement, "Aside from 'thank you', I do want to say a few more words. This award does make me feel excited, it at least proves that Felix Lin doesn't just have a charmingly handsome face, he also has a wise brain!"

There was another burst of laughter from the stage, and Lin Ming Yang waited for everyone to be almost done laughing before he pressed his hand, "This certainly won't be the last time I stand on the podium, but for the Emmy Awards, maybe this is my last time. Anything is only precious if it's unique, maybe in the future my epitaph will say, he only acted in one TV series, but won two Emmys!"
