Chapter 341 Oscars Ceremony: Lin Zhou Sweeps 8 Awards
The Dolby Theatre's dome lights shift and change, as if the entire Milky Way has been shattered.
The awards ceremony was in its final countdown, and the air was so thick you could hear a pin drop.
That night, Hollywood's arrogance was utterly crushed under the leather insole of that Eastern man's shoe.
Best visual effects, best sound effects, best original screenplay...
Even the most prestigious Best Director award was firmly in Lin Zhou's hands.
This sweeping momentum sent a chill down the spines of all the Western filmmakers present.
"Now, let's present the last award of the evening."
The award presenter's fingers rubbed the edge of the envelope, his voice trembling slightly.
"Best Film – The Wandering Earth!"
The entire stadium roared.
That was applause big enough to lift the roof off; it was the submission of filmmakers all over the world.
Lin Zhou stood up, showing no sign of elation.
His deep, abyss-like eyes remained calm and undisturbed.
He elegantly buttoned up his suit jacket.
Then, the man turned to the side and reached out his hand to Su Qingge beside him.
Lin Zhou held the elegant and graceful Su Qingge in his left hand, and steadily held Nuonuo, dressed as a little princess, in his right arm.
Su Qingge held little An'an, who was curiously looking around, in her arms.
The family of four walked steadily toward the podium, under the spotlight of thousands of cameras.
This is no longer a simple award ceremony.
This is the Lin family, the world's number one powerful clan, officially inscribing their name at the pinnacle of human civilization.
Standing in the center of the podium, Lin Zhou casually piled the eight little golden statuettes on the podium.
Those trophies that symbolize the highest honor seem to him to be nothing more than his son's toys.
He adjusted the height of the microphone.
Nuonuo hugged Lin Zhou's leg and made a bright face at the camera.
Little An'an, restless, stretched out her chubby little hand, trying to grab the glowing trophy.
A burst of good-natured laughter filled the room, instantly transforming the solemn atmosphere into a warm and friendly one.
Lin Zhou surveyed the entire room.
His gaze swept past the wealthy families who had once mocked him, and past the distant relatives of the Lin family who had once regarded him as an abandoned child.
Finally, his gaze settled on Su Qingge's peach blossom eyes, which were brimming with tears.
From that once down-on-his-luck, ostracized "good-for-nothing" outcast.
Today, it has become a myth that can control everything and dominate global aesthetics and money.
He took a long time to complete this closed loop.
But he discovered that what made him feel most at ease was the warmth of his family in his palm.
"Many people ask me what the secret to success is."
Lin Zhou spoke into the microphone, his deep, magnetic voice carrying across every live streaming terminal around the world.
There's actually no secret to it.
"Everything I did initially was simply so that my wife could sing with her back straight."
"So that my daughter can grow up in a small world without malice."
"So that my son won't have to fight to the death with this world like I did."
He chuckled softly, his eyes softening with a gentle clarity.
"I have seen the darkest abyss and I have personally torn away the ugliest disguises."
"We've faced many challenges along the way."
"But thankfully, they were always there under my umbrella."
Lin Zhou turned his head and gave Su Qingge a deep look.
Su Qingge pursed her lips, her eyes filled with an overwhelming happiness.
At this moment, she was no longer the aloof diva, but simply a happy woman protected by the world's strongest man.
"In this world full of prejudice and arrogance."
"We carried our homes, our culture, and our indomitable spirit as we completed this journey of wandering."
"From now on, no matter how the stars change."
"The Lin family's ship will never go astray."
As soon as Lin Zhou finished speaking, the entire audience stood up again and burst into thunderous applause.
Many veteran film critics took out handkerchiefs to wipe the corners of their eyes.
They discovered that what conquered the world for this man was not just his cutting-edge special effects that were ahead of their time.
It's more about that deep-seated, bone-deep romance about "home".
After the awards ceremony.
Lin Zhou declined all invitations to so-called top-tier parties.
He took off his slightly restrictive suit jacket and draped it over Su Qingge's shoulders.
Old Chen had already parked that understated yet incredibly well-equipped custom car at the back door.
"Young Master, a celebration banquet has been prepared at home."
Old Chen smiled as he accepted Nuonuo, his wrinkled face beaming with joy.
"Return to Xishan."
Lin Zhou opened the car door and helped Su Qingge into the car as well.
He glanced at the dazzling starry sky above the Dolby Theatre, a satisfied smile curving his lips.
The car smoothly navigated through the neon lights of Los Angeles.
Inside the carriage, An'an was already fast asleep in Su Qingge's arms.
Nuonuo leaned on Lin Zhou's arm, clutching a heavy little golden statue in her hand.
"Dad, can we really exchange this little golden statue for candy later?"
The little girl asked, still a bit confused.
"Of course, if Nuonuo wants, Daddy can buy all the candy factories on Earth and give them to you."
Lin Zhou answered softly, his tone full of doting affection.
"But eating too much candy will cause toothache..."
Nuonuo mumbled something and finally fell into a deep sleep.
Su Qingge leaned on Lin Zhou's shoulder, enjoying this moment of tranquility.
"Lin Zhou, sometimes I feel like all of this is a dream."
"When the dream ends, I am still Mrs. Lin in your arms."
Lin Zhou reached out and hugged her tightly, feeling her even breathing.
In this world, power changes hands and money flows.
Only the warmth that slips through our fingers at this moment is the truly eternal trophy.
The camera seems to slowly pull back at this moment.
We passed the black sedan speeding through a foreign land.
We passed the tower that was still going crazy for this Eastern family.
The final image is captured inside the car window, a radiant and peaceful silhouette of the family of four reflected on the glass.
A brand new chapter in life is just beginning under this tranquil moonlight.
"Old Chen, drive carefully."
"Don't worry, young master, the road ahead is long."
