Novel Full Chapter 555: ENTERING THE VENUE
“I think the picture of us with the ‘heart pose’ would definitely get a good reaction,” Lauren said as they waited at the end of the red carpet for the rest of the cast attending the award show. “Maybe it would get its own expression pack, like that video of you doing the ‘fighting pose’.”
Astrid only gave a helpless smile. Lauren was talking about that time the two of them and Miria appeared on a variety show for the promotion of [The Sleeping God]. He did the ‘fighting!’ gesture there, and it somehow gone viral in a way.
Many people created expression packs, which were like memes and emojis combined, and used it while chatting with someone or even when commenting and replying under a post on [Cyberspace].
Astrid had seen that a couple of times, but didn’t really think much about it. Or more precisely, he didn’t really feel the extent of its effect. Mostly because he hardly sent messages and preferred video calls more. He’s not also chronically online, so he only saw his fans using those expression packs.
The way Lauren talked about it, it seemed like it had a bigger effect than he initially thought? Maybe it even added to his popularity. Well, anyway, it’s not like it’s bad if his photo got turned into another expression pack. It might even be advantageous to him in some way.
His thoughts were cut off when he saw the other cast members of [The Sleeping God] appearing on the red carpet.
The first one to appear was Miria. The song she sang as the OST of the movie was nominated for Best Original Song.
Although the ones who would get it if it ever won were the composer and the lyricist involved in producing the song – which in this case was Shir Atkins, Miria still attended because she would also be the latter’s representative for tonight and would go up to receive the award if it ever won. Since Shir Atkins couldn’t attend because of his busy schedule.
Not to mention, she also had to perform the song tonight, along with the other singers whose songs were nominated.
Then the next ones who came were Sienna Rose and Stephen Tomlinson, who were nominated for best actress and best actor, respectively. The last one to appear was Director Trevane, who was, of course, nominated for best director.
[The Sleeping God] was also nominated for other technical awards, so those nominees also worked on the red carpet. They had walked ahead of the cast and were just waiting ahead, together with Astrid and Lauren.
After everyone was assembled, the reporters started taking pictures of them as a group.
And with that, the cast and crew of [The Sleeping God] finally entered Celestial Plaza.

At the Silver Moon Awards, attendees were seated at round tables accommodating a varying number of people, typically between 8 to 12 individuals. Nominees, cast members, directors, and producers were distributed across these tables, with key figures placed at prominent positions, often closer to the stage.
Seating arrangements were designed to optimize both visual appeal and logistical considerations, allowing participants to enjoy the event while maintaining an organized and functional setting.
The stage set of the award show was a breathtaking display of extravagance and opulence. A grand central stage, resplendent with ornate podiums and lavish seating arrangements, commanded attention. The backdrop, adorned with cascading drapes and intricate silver accents, showcased the iconic Silver Moon logo in a display of radiant brilliance.
Elaborate lighting arrangements bathed the entire venue in a soft, ethereal glow, casting a spell of glamour. Expansive, virtual screens flanking the stage displayed captivating visuals. The meticulously designed space, exuding luxury and grandeur, created a mesmerizing backdrop for the star-studded proceedings.
[So this is Silver Moon Awards.] – Astrid thought as he looked around in his seat.
This was more like a VIP event instead of an award show. This was the difference between Silver Moon and the other two major film awards. It showed the glamorous side of the entertainment industry. Which was probably why it’s very attractive to the general public.
Even if it’s an award which was only based on popularity and the box-office, no one could deny its impact.
“Astrid, I really like your coat. You said it’s sponsored by EMMA, right? When will they release it? I would like a pink one,” Sienna Rose commented.
Miria nodded on the side. “I want something light blue.”
The nominated cast members, together with the director, cinematographer, and the scriptwriter, weer all seated on the same table. The rest of the crews were seated at a table nearby.
He smiled at Sienna and Miria. “It will be on their next collection, which will be released in April. I will contact you if I have more information.”
Ellis said that she had worked some deal with EMMA, or more precisely, with Casey. Since the deal was still unofficial, she hadn’t yet discuss the entirety of it with Astrid. She just assured him that it would be good for his career.
Even if he hadn’t yet learned about what it was, he could already feel another ambassadorship incoming. Ellis was probably still trying to negotiate for as much money as she could. That’s why she told him it would take a while before things become ‘official’.
Ellis would make sure to get a hefty deal. Especially after that whole fiasco with EMMA’s new perfume line. Well, he would be cheering her on then.
With that addition, his ‘wealth’ would probably now be enough to buy the apartment unit he’s living in right now. Maybe he could also buy the two units beside it and do some renovations. That way, the space would be much wider and Reas would also have his own room.
There would probably be no problems buying those units, as well as renovating them. Since he’s quite close to the building owner.
Astrid smiled inwardly, thinking of Wulfric, his self-proclaimed number one fan.
He wondered if the other was watching the live stream of the award show right now.
