Although it was hard to say whether they would win the Golden Orchid Awards, Ye Wanwan was fairly confident about getting a nomination.
She watched over the entire production of this film, so she had absolute confidence in its quality.
What the committee of judges would evaluate was the quality of the script and film, not box office performance. The outcome at the box office didn’t impact the committee’s judgment at all.
Luo Chen also rejoiced in this news. This was the best news they had heard in a while.
It was only a nomination, but it was an explicit acknowledgment of their acting skills.
Gong Xu gloatingly struck a pose with his hands on his hips. “Hahaha! So what if it’s a nomination? A little rounding off, and it’s the same as me winning Best Actor! So, Brother Ye… look… how about you do some rounding off and crossdress?”
Ye Wanwan rolled her eyes at him.
They might’ve been nominated, but this was drastically different from actually getting Best Actor, alright?
If they didn’t get it, they would merely take a stroll on the red carpet and accompany the actual winner. They would also help the Golden Orchid Awards get a “Double Best Actor” nomination tagline.
This nomination was especially problematic for Gong Xu. If he didn’t end up winning, he would be ridiculed by the entire internet.
After their joy passed, Luo Chen said, “I dug through the records. There are a total of five times when both male leads from the same film were nominated at the same time in the history of the Golden Orchid Awards. However, there wasn’t a single time when both male leads got Best Actor. There were four times when they just participated and one time when one of the male leads won. The Best Actress Award also has a similar history…”
In other words, Double Best Actor or Double Best Actress hadn’t occurred in the history of the Golden Orchid Awards.
After all, the Golden Orchid Awards’ prestigiousness was so high; how could they easily award two Best Actors or two Best Actresses at once?
Although there were a lot of nominations, most of them were only there for the race. Moreover, the other films entering the final round with them couldn’t be underestimated. The lineup of companies, directors, producers, and artists was incredibly strong.
Only Gong Xu and Luo Chen went against the grain in the mix…
