The applause roared like a tide.
Huang Kaiwen was still in a daze.
He could understand what Umberto Eco was saying, but those praises had nothing to do with his work.
Such talk couldn't have happened without hundreds of thousands of Euros in PR money.
The young miss was really squandering her wealth.
If he, Huang Kaiwen, were to win tens of thousands more awards, his family would end up eating dirt.
For a moment, Huang Kaiwen was filled with worry about his future life.
"Dear, it's time to go up and accept the award!" the young miss whispered as a reminder.
Snapping back to reality, Huang Kaiwen quickly got up, hugged the young miss, and then walked toward the stage.
Once on stage,
Huang Kaiwen shook hands with Umberto Eco and received the trophy from him.
The trophy was beautifully crafted.
It was designed as a feather pen, quite beautiful and golden, though he had no idea what material it was made of.
The Italians are really impressive when it comes to art.
