Chapter 709: The New Villa
Paris shrank her head back like a tortoise . You have the award . It's your responsibility now .
Qin Guan put the large award in front of him and showed it to the audience . He received a rapturous applause . A few sensitive girls even took some tissues out of their pockets .
This is so exciting, we just want to cry . We were with you when you won an award!
Despite the childlike award in his arms, Qin Guan managed to look serious . He cleared his throat and began his speech .
"Thank you for your support . This is my first Teen Choice Award, so the credit is yours, not mine . I would like to express my gratitude to all the people under the stage, as well as the audience at home . Thank you for your votes!"
His bow aroused an even warmer applause . Everyone loved him and had high expectations for his future . Admiring you is a blessing!
"I will work really hard to make you proud!"
His sincere words were the best response .
The autocue reminded Qin Guan that he had to surrender the stage to the next winners, so he waved at the audience once again and put a full stop to his speech .
"I hope to present you with good films every year and see you at this ceremony again . This is a promise . We all have to work hard for it to happen . Okay?"
"Okay!"
"Okay!"
"Okay!"
Qin Guan received loud responses . His fans watched their idol return to the backstage area with his heavy award, waving at them as he disappeared .
Their excitement and sorrow lasted till the end of the ceremony . Fans of other stars dared not cerebrate over the next awards . If they so much as laughed amid that sad atmosphere, they would have regretted it .
When Paris Hilton announced the end of the ceremony, she let out a long sigh of relief . As the curtain fell down, the director rushed to the Technology Department with his headset .
"The audience ratings of the whole ceremony reached 7% . When Qin Guan got on the stage, they boomed up to 8%! According to the statistics, we outdid the MTV Awards! The feedback from the advertisers is really good!"
The director collapsed on a chair . The FOX board of directors wanted the awards to do better . Despite that huge pressure, the TV station had tried its best to promote the event . If it wasn't for the sake of the stars and some sponsors, the awards would have been cancelled . Their rival, the MTV Awards, had a more solid fan base after all .
One person had turned things around completely though .
The director slept well that night . The next morning, his head was buzzing with good news . According to the statistics, the ceremony had reached the top of the entertainment ratings .
Plus, 8% of the audience had been adults!
This meant that the Advertising Department could get back to the sponsors with some good news . See? We can earn money in the adult market . It's not much, but it's still a good start .
While the TV station boomed with loud cheers, Qin Guan and Cong Nianwei were sighing in their messy apartment .
They were packing up to leave . They had lived there for two years, so the apartment was full of warm memories .
They had finally graduated from Columbia . All the procedures had been taken care of . Qin Guan had decided to move all his work headquarters, including his accounting firm and studio, to China . He and Cong Nianwei would move into a new house .
They would spend some time in New York for their PhDs, but that small apartment did not meet their needs anymore . It was Lan Jin who had helped Qin Guan make that decision .
Qin Guan had acted right away . He had used his advanced payment from the accounting firm to buy a villa in Long Island . The villa was in an upscale residential area just a 20-minute drive away from New York . The house was close to the mountains and the sea, but far from the bustling city center .
