Chapter 265: This Is Really Tan Mo

Of course, the reporters have seen “Legend of Wei and Jin”, but it is difficult to recognize the actors from the characters they play because of their costumes and makeup.

It is even harder to recognize actors who have played in director Liu's historical dramas as they try to recreate appearances that were prevalent in the past.

However, despite not being able to recognize who Tan Mo and Tan Jinqi played in the drama, they still decided to take pictures of the brothers.

🍀

Back at the Yuan Mansion, Yuan Keqing was sitting on the sofa watching the awards live broadcast as he chewed on a plate of fruit as one of his favorite male actors would be present there.

Yuan Keqing once begged Yuan Zhengwen to find a way for him to work on the same project with the actor so that he could meet him.

However, his goal had not changed: he still wanted to marry Wei Keli in the future.

But that didn't stop him from admiring the handsome actor.

Being able to meet actors and post photos of them together would be more than enough to spark his arrogance.

As the show progressed, Yuan Keqing suddenly jumped off the sofa and ran towards the TV to take a closer look at the face he had just noticed.

“What's wrong?” Xu Mingjing asked, not paying attention to the show as he played games on his phone.

“I... It looks like I saw Tan Mo,” Yuan Keqing replied.

Xu Mingjing was stunned by his reply for a moment before laughing, “Are you sure? Isn't this the Tulip Award? Why would he be there? He has nothing to do with the entertainment business.”

The mother was convinced because Tan Mo was still a student at Beijing University and as far as she knew had never been in contact with industry.

She was sure her daughter must have mistaken others for Tan Mo.

Yuan Keqing frowned, wondering if he was really wrong.

He had been taught by his parents that they should always prioritize Tan Mo since he was a child, that getting Tan Mo's good side was more important than anything else.

Unfortunately, this had affected Yuan Keqing in the opposite way.

The more his parents urged him to do that, the more he wanted to be better than Tan Mo.

He was unhappy that he had to let Tan Mo win all the time and had to side with his cousin, wondering why couldn't it be otherwise.

It had become one of the goals of his life, that one day, he would stand on Tan Mo and the latter would have to lick his boots.

Yuan Keqing had viewed Tan Mo as his rival ever since they were kids. He could never forget his cousin's face, even if it only appeared before him for a moment.

Did I really see wrong? Yuan Keqing asked himself as he sat back on the sofa.

Since there are many people on the show, it is unlikely that the camera can focus on a particular person for a long time, especially when there are many world-renowned actors and directors present at the event. The less famous the person is, the less screen time they get.

That was why brother sister Tan only appeared on the screen for a moment and the cameraman quickly switched to someone else.

Yuan Keqing was still convinced that he had seen Tan Mo. His eyes were fixed on the screen while putting a piece of fruit into his mouth.

Fortunately, the TV in his house was huge and he could see every detail in it. It was as if he was sitting in a private theater.

At the event, the teams of “Legenda Wei and Jin” stood in front of the wall and everyone took turns signing it.

The host then waits for the cameraman to take some photos before beginning a brief interview. “If we have to choose the best drama of last year, I will say that the title must belong to ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’. The drama became a hit once the first episode fell over the summer and remained at the top of every charts even after the series ended until now. Mr Liu, do you have something to say to all the fans out there?”

“Yes, I have to give credit for the success of this drama on our script. As I read the script, I knew that as long as I was ready for my play, this drama would definitely work. Of course, the incredible success of this drama is not something I thought would happen. Even I was shocked to see the result.”

“You are too humble.” the host smiled.

“No, I'm serious. I have to thank everyone in the team for their success, and I'm serious about that as well. If not for all the amazing actors, there was no way I could have finished this drama so well. As for how hardworking these people are, I've talked about it in previous interviews so I won't discuss it anymore. But here, I still have to say a huge thank you to the scriptwriter of this drama, Tan Mo.”

“Mother! This is really Tan Mo, ”seru Yuan Keqing while jumping off the sofa once again. “See! Jinqi was there too! Did he just say scriptwriter? How did Tan Mo become a scriptwriter for ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’?”

Xu Mingjing was still skeptical, but seeing his daughter's reaction, he became curious as well and shifted his gaze from the phone to the TV.

As soon as he saw it, he immediately recognized his nephew.

“You're right! Mo Mo and Jinqi are there,” Xu Mingjing exclaimed. “Wow! They are part of the team behind ‘Legenda Wei and Jin’? They are truly the pride of family!”

Amidst his excitement, Xu Mingjing was also somewhat disappointed.

He turned to look at his daughter, who was the same age as Tan Mo. One was already walking on the red carpet of the biggest drama award in the Hua Empire, while the other was still lazing around at home.

“Oh? I didn't expect the scriptwriter for ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’ to join us today either,” the host said excitedly. “Since this drama topped the charts, everyone was curious who the scriptwriter was so that it could produce an outstanding script. So, I can assume that Qimo is the pseudonym of the scriptwriter? And that his real name is Tan Mo? May I know which one he is?”

The host thought that the scriptwriter was Tan Jinqi because he and Tan Mo were the only two unknown hosts on the team.

And since Tan Mo was clearly still a teenager, the host naturally came to the conclusion that Tan Jinqi was the scriptwriter.

“Tan Mo, come here.” Director Liu waved at Tan Mo.

Tan Mo quickly walked towards the Director while Zhang Kangwang, who had been standing next to Director Liu, quickly moved away so that Tan Mo could stand there.

The host was stunned for a moment to see such a young girl was the scriptwriter for such a successful drama.

“I hope it's not too rude to ask this, but, Miss Tan, may I know your age?” The host asked with a smile.

Director Liu turned to Tan Mo and gestured for him to answer it himself.

“I'll be 17 this year,” replied Tan Mo.

Everyone was stunned, not only those present at the event but also those who were watching the awards at home.

People started leaving comments under the video.

^^^“He will be 17 years old? Are you kidding me? She's still SMA?”^^^

^^^“She said she would be 17 this year. Since ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’ came out last year, doesn't that mean he was 16 when he wrote the script?”^^^

^^^“Could he be from a prestigious family and they pay the original scriptwriter so he can be famous?”^^^

^^^“It may. I mean, that dress looks expensive.”^^^

^^^“You are right! The dress was from a luxury brand, and I just checked the price online. It cost more than $8,000!”^^^

The comment section became silent for a few seconds as everyone could not help but look at the price tag.
