Chapter 75 - Zhang Ye’s Miraculous Win! (2/2)

A Literature Channel youth sighed and said, ”Yes, Sis Zhang is really like a giant panda in the entertainment industry. Other Heavenly Queens and Kings can be replaced, for they look good and are good at acting, but Zhang Yuanqi is definitely someone who cannot be replaced. She represents a generation!”

Everyone's evaluation of her was very high.

Tian Bin and Zhāng Yě, who were in front, also looked towards Zhang Yuanqi.

Maybe some people did not craze over Zhang Yuanqi, and some people had controversies with Zhang Yuanqi's works, but no one could deny that wherever Zhang Yuanqi was, she would forever be the main lead!

Onstage.

A host went up. This person seemed to be from the News Channel from the Beijing Television Station. He was not very famous, but everyone found him familiar.

”h.e.l.lo, everyone. Welcome to this year's Beijing Television Station's live broadcast of the Golden Microphone Awards. He did not introduce the guests and judges, because it still wasn't a live broadcast. Those were lines only said during the live broadcast. ”There is still half an hour's time before the Golden Microphone Awards. According to established practices, now is the time for the awarding of the Silver Microphone Awards. First, let me announce this year's Silver Microphone Awards nominees.”

”Beijing Television Station - Chen Bin! Yan Qi!”

”Hebei Television Station - Lu Mei! Huo Dongyan!”

”Jins.h.i.+ Television Station - Chen Tao! Zhang Yang!”

”Beijing Radio Station - Zhāng Yě, Zhang Ye!”

”Shanghai Radio Station - Su Leilei! Li Bang!”

After each nominee's name was announced, the host began to announce the first winner, ”Next, I will announce the winner of this year's Silver Microphone Awards' television host award, Beijing Television Station's Yan Qi!”

Everyone applauded.

A female host seemed very surprised as she quickly rushed onto the stage while covering her mouth to accept the award.

The person handing the award to her was one of the five judges, Teacher Cheng. He was an old senior of the broadcasting world.

The awards host laughed, ”Congratulations to Yan Qi. She is almost my colleague. Little Qi, this occasion is quite magnificent. With so many seniors sitting below, do you have something to say?”

Yan Qi took over the microphone, ”Thank you. Only thank you. Thank you everyone for your help! Thank you everyone for your recognition!”

Next.

Then the next.

The announcement of the winners of the ten television hosts awards quickly came to an end. Other than a few people having longer acceptance speeches, there was no delay. Next was the Silver Microphone Awards for radio hosts. They were also for ten people. However, at this moment, it was cut back to the host, to hear him say, ”Next will be the radio station broadcasting Silver Microphone Awards. Let me invite my colleague Zhang Huo from the Beijing Radio Station to announce it.” After he walked down, Zhang Huo came up with a smile.

Zhang Huo was no stranger to Zhang Ye. Back at the Mid-Autumn Poetry Meet, he was also one of the hosts. He was a winner of their station's Golden Microphone Award many years ago. Since this award ceremony was organized by the Beijing Television Station, he had the qualification to do it, even if he wasn't very famous in the industry.

Zhang Huo came onto the stage, ”h.e.l.lo, everyone. I'm Zhang Huo.” At such a big occasion, with so many seniors and Leaders around, he also seemed slightly nervous. After all, he was just a radio station's news-related broadcaster, so his fame was definitely incomparable to other television stations' hosts. ”Thank you for the Leader's trust for me to host this Radio Station Silver Microphone Awards. Next, I will announce the first winner of the ten awards.”

He flipped open the certificate and announced, ”Central Radio Station, Gong Xu!”

Immersed in the applause, Gong Xu excitedly went up on stage. Zhang Yuanqi took over the trophy from a member of the staff. It was her turn to give out the award.

”Congratulations.” Zhang Yuanqi gave a warm smile.

Gong Xu received it with an expression of shock, ”Thank you, Teacher Zhang. Thank you to the jury. I will continue to work hard. I will not put this trophy to shame!”

Zhang Yuanqi smiled. ”You've already done very well.”

Zhang Huo smiled. ”Let's give a round of applause to Teacher Gong.”

Beijing Radio Station's Station Head and Deputy Station Head Jia were in the first row. They applauded the winner.

Next, Zhang Huo announced another person from the Central Radio Station. Zhang Yuanqi did not get offstage. She took the trophy and handed it to him, congratulating him.

Offstage.

Big Sis Zhou was not feeling an emotional high, ”It's almost already time for our radio station.”

w.a.n.g Xiaomei looked unsurely at Zhang Ye, ”Are you alright?”

”I'm fine.” Zhang Ye pretended to look indifferent. Actually, it would be weird if he was fine. This award was extremely important to him!

Auntie Sun patted Zhang Ye on the shoulder, ”Let's not bother ourselves arguing with the likes of them.”

Suddenly, Zhang Huo's voice came again, ”Next is the third Silver Microphone Award. The result of the jury is...” Upon saying this, Zhang Huo suddenly paused. His words were still stuck in his throat. He had opened the certificate and remained silent for a long while. He looked with an unsure gaze offstage, with a questioning gaze.

Deputy Station Head Jia frowned, ”Carry on reading.”

”What's the meaning of this?” The Beijing Radio Station's Station Head also pulled a long face. This was organized by them, and Zhang Huo was from their radio station. Even though it was not a live broadcast, he should not have made such a low-level error. Wasn't this embarra.s.sing their radio station for a host to lose his focus?

””Eh?”

”Why isn't he speaking?”

”Who's next? He’s not announcing it?”

Zhāng Yě was already waiting offstage to receive his award. He knew he was next.

The few people from the jury were also wondering what he was doing. Hence, they gave Zhang Huo a stern expression to tell him to carry on!

Zhang Huo breathed in deeply. Seeing the Leader and jury members having such expressions, he could only read, ”The next winner of the Silver Microphone Awards is Beijing Radio Station's...Zhang Ye!”

In the beginning, no one realized it.

Zhāng Yě, who was in the front row, smiled and got up.

Zhang Huo hurriedly waved at him not to go onstage. He said to his News Channel colleague, ”It's not you. It's.. Zhang Ye!”
