Although Su Lingxi's nomination for Best Actress this time received mixed reviews due to the subject matter, for Lingsi at the moment, nothing is a more powerful shot in the arm than this news - you know, that's the Magnolia Award that other young actresses dare not even think about, and even if it's just a nomination for Supporting Actress, it's enough for them to brag about for half a year.

What's more, netizens only questioned the subject matter of the TV series. Most people still recognized Su Lingxi's performance in "Player Self-Help Guide".

Therefore, after a crushing exchange, Lingsi's mentality became much more stable, and she began to calmly wait for the team to officially announce that Su Lingxi would be the leading actress in her first drama.

However, before the controversy over the Magnolia nomination had lasted long, the news that "Paris at Night" had been shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival once again ignited the enthusiasm of the entire network.

As one of the three major film festivals in Europe, although the Venice Film Festival is not as prestigious as Cannes, its correlation with the Oscars has become increasingly close in recent years. Three consecutive Venice Film Festival winners have successfully won the Best Actor award at the Oscars ceremony, which has also led to the Venice Film Festival being nicknamed the "Oscar Forerunner Award" in the industry.

Obviously, this so-called nickname contains a strong sense of sarcasm, but as the Venice Film Festival has brought out more and more seed players, many people have changed their faces. Their initial mocking attitude towards the Venice Film Festival quickly turned into flattery, and they are almost scrambling for the titles of Best Actor and Best Actress.

This phenomenon has intensified in recent years, resulting in a polarized reputation of the Venice Film Festival in the international film industry.

Those European filmmakers who yearn for the Oscars and aim to enter Hollywood are eager to make the Venice Film Festival the second Golden Globe Awards, and they confidently call it "one of the five major indicators of the Oscars." However, those who are accustomed to praising art films and rejecting commercial films mostly sneer at this, and even feel quite ashamed of it.

But regardless of its reputation, the Venice Film Festival has indeed attracted many Hollywood stars to support it over the years thanks to its connection with the Oscars. Every year, the red carpet lineup has big names, making it the most star-studded of the three.

Netizens don't know as much as industry insiders and movie fans who specialize in studying these issues. They only know that the Venice Film Festival seems to be more well-known than the Berlin Film Festival, and the films and stars nominated each year are also more famous.

Su Lingxi’s selection for the Venice Film Festival this time can be considered as...an improvement to some extent?

Even internationally renowned film festivals recognized her acting skills, which means she is not as bad as those people on the Internet say, right?

Those people always swarm out to step on her, maybe they are just following the trend to criticize her.

Once the seed of doubt is planted in a person's mind, all kinds of speculations will get out of control.

Finally, after marketing accounts persistently published popular articles to hype the topic of "Su Lingxi was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival", netizens were no longer interested in the domestic box office of "Dream in Paris". Instead, they were more concerned about the value of Su Lingxi's nomination this time and the international status of the Venice Film Festival.

Of course, Yu Wan’s hand was naturally involved in this - the herd mentality can be used in both negative and positive ways. As long as netizens lose interest in a piece of news, the media will naturally choose to give up hyping this worthless news and instead shift their attention to other more eye-catching topics.

For Lingsi, the sudden reversal in her public opinion in the past few days was no different from the face-slapping plot in a novel.

As soon as the news of their nomination came out, the tricky situation against them instantly turned into a favorable one, without them having to put in any effort. The attitudes of passers-by immediately changed 180 degrees, as if they were not the ones who questioned the fairness of the Magnolia Awards in the hot searches a few days ago.

Seeing that Su Lingxi's popularity has improved again, fans are proud and happy, but some people are so angry that they smash cups at home.

"How do the people you found do things? Why are they useless?" Meng Rui shouted into the receiver of the phone in a rage, "Your people are such losers. They completely messed up my plan. Now you want me to be responsible for the end?"

In fact, since she became more popular in the past two years as her resources improved, Meng Rui rarely showed such an emotional side in front of outsiders - even if there was no camera filming, she always habitually created the image of a steady and quiet lady. Whether as a boss, a subordinate or someone's female companion, this is what those people expect of her.

But at this moment, the anger and panic in her heart were intertwined, making her unable to control her temper.

No one knew that this was her best opportunity to pull Su Lingxi off the altar, and also her last chance to step on her to get to the top.

The connections at the Hundred Flowers Awards were the breakup gift that person left for her. These internet trolls and marketing accounts that controlled public opinion were all people she hired with real money. There was also the script of "Spring Trees and Evening Clouds"... If she hadn't found a way to convince Jin Yichen, she would never have been qualified to be the female lead in a project of this level.

This time, everything was ready except for the east wind. Jin Yichen also secretly gave her a lot of help on behalf of the company. If she still couldn't snatch the pie from Su Lingxi under this circumstance, it would clearly prove how useless she was.

If we say that Meng Rui was once immersed in the flattery of fans in previous years, now that she has starred in big-budget movies and played supporting roles in serious dramas, she is no longer the same as before - not only has her popularity increased, her whole mentality has also settled a lot, and she has a clearer understanding of herself.

In terms of acting skills, she is a former idol and cannot compare with those serious 95 drama beauties; in terms of looks, she is indeed good-looking, but not yet beautiful enough to be irreplaceable in the entertainment industry; talking about her background, she has been with that boss for several years, and now they have parted ways amicably. It is easy to guess what will happen in the future, it will definitely not be as smooth as before.

She does not have the acting skills, looks and resources to stand out among her peers. If she messes up again this time, Tianyi Entertainment will probably not give her good resources anymore.

After all, the reason why Jin Yichen signed her was because of the boss's face.

Now that she has lost her backing, if she doesn't improve her ability to handle things on her own, she will sooner or later become an outcast of the company.

Thinking of this, Meng Rui took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "You are paid to do things. If you don't do things well, you will also damage your reputation in the industry."

"Listen to me, get those people to stop leading the trend now, and we can use this method..."
