Chapter 99 Chu Ze: I am the newborn!

After a wonderful warm-up song and dance at the beginning, the camera swept across the exquisite stage and the male and female guests sitting in the audience.

First, the big stars in the front row, then the big authors in the back, and finally the whole row sweeps towards the audience seats.

Jiang Huiqin had sharp eyes, and although it only flashed for less than a second, she still saw Chu Ze's figure.

"Look, it's Aze, it's really Aze! Our Aze is really on TV!" Jiang Huiqin pointed at the TV excitedly and patted Chu Mingtao's thigh.

"Okay, okay, stop making such a fuss, okay? It's like you've never seen the world before." Chu Mingtao moved Jiang Huiqin's hand away.

"This is not the first time I've seen a family member on TV. I'm a little excited," Jiang Huiqin explained.

"You're so excited just because of a flash of a shot. This brat will go on stage to receive the award later. You're going to slap him, right?"

"Just calm down."

"Of course. I've seen the world and I'm never surprised by anything." Chu Mingtao laughed.

Soon, the male and female hosts came on stage together on TV.

"Welcome everyone to the 10th Qidian Original Literature Festival. I am the host Chen Yue." The beautiful host picked up the microphone and said.

"I am the host Wang Xiang." The male host also introduced himself.

After the two hosts briefly delivered an opening speech, they finally began the first award ceremony of the annual meeting.

At first, we started with the short story award, because short stories are not very popular in the online literary circle, but they are indispensable, so it is just right to use them to warm up the atmosphere...

I watched the short story authors go on stage to receive their awards. Each award was presented by a special star. After the authors received their awards, the star performers gave performances. This is the routine process of the Qidian Annual Meeting.

Watching the young trainees singing, dancing and rapping on the stage, Chu Ze couldn't help but think of an old friend.

The great author named Red Tea next to him couldn't help but sigh: "This crappy annual party is still as sloppy and tasteless as always. They invited all kinds of popular stars."

"By the way, it seems like the boss doesn't like Qidian's annual meeting very much? Why did you come if you don't like to attend it?" Chu Ze asked curiously when he saw his brother's disgusted expression.

"After all, food and lodging are provided, travel expenses are reimbursed, and there will be a dinner party later. It would be a waste not to come." Hongcha said very straightforwardly, "And as long as you attend the annual meeting, you will have a legitimate reason not to renew today."

Chu Ze: “Hiss…”

Strange knowledge increased!
Learned learned learned.

I'm asking for leave now.

I'm in Shanghai, just got off the plane, lost contact after having sex with a prostitute, no update today.

"And you may not have noticed since it's your first time here, but this year there are more authors than in previous years. The seats are all full, and many old platinum authors who didn't come before are here." Hongcha gestured to Chu Ze to look around.

"Why?" Chu Ze was stunned.

"Because this year everyone wants to see who a certain newborn is." Hongcha said this with gritted teeth.

"Newborn? Who?" Chu Ze was stunned.

"It's the sweet potato." Hongcha said as a matter of course.

?

"Who?" Chu Ze wondered if he had heard it wrong.

"Don't you know about sweet potato?" Hongcha said.

"I know Tiancan Digua, but I don't know when he was born."

"Not a newborn?" Hongcha asked back.

"What newborn?" Chu Ze was angry.

We have no grudge against each other, why are you scolding me?
"Not a newbie yet? He's a newcomer, but his first book broke the subscription record of Qidian within half a year, with an average subscription of over 100,000. I don't know how many it is now..." Hongcha said angrily. "It was just 200,000 two days ago..." Chu Ze interrupted and added.

"Right, this site has 200,000... Huh? How did you know?" Hongcha realized something was wrong halfway through his sentence and turned to look at Chuze.

"Nothing, just continue." Chu Ze waved his hand to signal him not to pay attention to these details.

Hongcha didn't care and continued, "Oh, this is Qidian's website. I can't even imagine how many subscribers there are on the entire network. Damn, the more I think about it, the more jealous I get. He's so naive. I've been around for so many years and I still don't make as much as he does in a few months."

Hongcha cursed and tears of envy flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Oh, is it such a newborn?
After all this time, I am just filled with impotence and rage.

"Well, keep on scolding..."

Curse more, he will feel better when listening to it.

Is this how a masochist awakens?

"We can't curse anymore. Let's just curse in private. It would be bad if someone accidentally hears it. He must be at the scene now, but I haven't found anyone who looks like him after searching for a long time. Have you found anyone who meets the characteristics of a newborn?" Hongcha said in a low voice, and looked around, but didn't find anyone who met the characteristics of a newborn.

You asked this question...how should I respond?
Could it be that: I discovered that I am the newborn?
Not suitable.

"...No." Chu Ze could only say.

"It's okay, we'll be able to see him at the award ceremony soon. He will definitely be the best newcomer of the year." Hongcha waved his hand, indicating that he was not in a hurry.

Sure enough, about half an hour later, the beautiful host Chen Yue said, "The next award is the Best Newcomer of the Year. I think most of you already know who this award will be given to, so I won't keep you in suspense..."

Everyone in the audience laughed and cheered, shouting Tiancan Digu's name.

"Now I announce that the winner of this year's Qidian Best Newcomer of the Year Award is——"

Chen Yue dragged out the words for a while, and then said crisply: "The winner of this year's Qidian Best Newcomer Award is the author of "Battle Through the Heavens" - Tian Can Di Gua. Please invite Tian Can Di Gua to the stage to receive the award."

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, everyone looked towards the author's seat curiously, wanting to know who the Heavenly Silkworm and Sweet Potato were...

Chu Ze stood up and pushed the old man next to him, "Well, let me go out for a while."

"What are you doing? Do you want to go to the bathroom? If you want to go, please wait a while. Didn't you hear that new student is about to go on stage?" Hongcha was puzzled for a moment, but did not mean to move aside. She just asked Chu Ze not to be anxious.

"I heard you, but you have to let me out first..." Chu Ze gestured to him to move aside and stop yelling at Chu Sheng. You're still getting excited even though I'm ignoring you. That's enough.

"Then hold on for a while. At least wait with me until you see what that newborn looks like before you go." Hongcha said again.

"No, what are you watching if you don't let me out?"

"What do you mean?"

"I am the fucking newborn!" Chu Ze was angry.

"?!"

Chu Ze's explosive speech made Hongcha look at Chu Ze as he walked out of his seat with an expression of "I heard something". Then, under the gaze of countless people, Chu Ze walked straight to the stage from the aisle.

Wang Defa?
Who is he?

Brother Hongcha looked at Lao Mu next to him with a confused look on his face, and saw that Lao Mu was also shocked, and it was obvious that he had heard the conversation just now.

Are you telling me that the newcomer I was talking about for so long just now is the newborn silkworm sweet potato he mentioned?

I spent a long time scolding the newborn Tiancan Digu?
Hongcha took a deep breath, and the temperature of the entire cultural center rose by several degrees.

Oh my god, this may very well affect my career!
