“Darling, you look extremely handsome today.”
Huang Kaiwen nodded, without any modesty.
After all, he, Huang, relied on his face for a living, and he was quite confident about that.
The Milan International Youth Literature Award had rented the venue of the Milan International Exhibition Center.
It looked quite impressive.
After showing the invitation, they were allowed in by the security.
Looking at the bustling venue.
Huang Kaiwen could only silently say the young lady was awesome.
Even for a nobody award, they had invited so many people.
The only thing that puzzled him was that.
Other award ceremonies were usually in the evening.
After the awards, everyone would party together.
Putting this Milan International Youth Literature Award in the morning was kind of odd.
Inviting people over to run around without even arranging a party.
Weren’t they afraid people wouldn’t come next time?
Huang Kaiwen had just entered the venue when an old man with a Mediterranean hairstyle hurried over to shake hands, saying, “It’s a pleasure to see you here, Kevin.”
“Hello, hello.” Huang Kaiwen looked at the man’s artistic beard with full of doubt in his mind.
“We can get in touch privately sometime; you are a great young man,” the man said before turning away and leaving.
Huang Kaiwen looked at the young lady and asked, “Is he a Milan fan?”
“Umberto Eco, a famous Italian writer, philosopher, and literary critic, world-renowned, he’s the guest of honor at today’s award.” said the young lady.
As for what his work was like, Huang Kaiwen had an idea in his heart.
The man was a literary critic.
His, Huang’s, work could at most be criticized.
It must have been the young lady’s doing.
How else could he possibly catch the eye of such a literary mogul?
Seeing Huang Kaiwen’s expression, Barbara took the initiative to explain: “It has nothing to do with me, although I invited Mr.
Eco, the goodwill he showed today has nothing to do with me, it’s all because of you, dear.”
How did he not believe it at all?
The young lady took the initiative to explain: “Well, Mr.
Eco is currently studying medieval theology and he prefers to call the city Constantinople.
Also, he now resides in Milan and might be a fan of Milan; every Italian man is a fan.”
So that’s how it was.
Huang Kaiwen nodded, as if he understood.
He, Huang, bearing the title of Conqueror of Constantinople, seemed to have caught the big shot’s favorable eye.
So saying that scholarship is unrelated to politics and faith is just nonsense.
Scholarly matters are the most abundant in these respects.
After greeting a few more people, Barbara led Huang Kaiwen to take their seats.
There were quite a few guests and candidates, and the small venue was packed.
After waiting for almost five more minutes, the award ceremony officially began.
The process looked very formal.
Huang Kaiwen asked, “Did planning this award cost a lot of money?”
“Don’t worry, there’s government subsidy.”
The young lady whispered.
The young lady was getting better and better at living.
With Italy’s economy not booming, even though the family was wealthy, it was necessary to save a bit.
Here the young lady applied.
Maybe they could even get some tax exemptions for the family business.
Rich people’s play is spending money.
It all started with some insignificant awards.
The Milan International Youth Literature Award clearly imitated the Oscars.
There were awards like Best Storytelling, Best Scenic Description, Most Adaptable Work…
Even though he knew the big prizes were fixed,
Feeling the atmosphere, Huang Kaiwen began to get nervous.
His writing skills were not even as good as his football skills.
Also, when he first wrote it, he wasn’t serious; it was just something he wrote for fun, and he didn’t even correct the sentences that weren’t coherent.
Now, not only was he winning an award, but his work was also being published – what was the difference between this and a public execution?
Huang Kaiwen asked quietly, “Barbara, my book is just a draft, it has some issues.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve had it edited and made some modifications.” The young lady said.
Probably quite a few modifications at that.
Seeing Huang Kaiwen nervous, the young lady took Huang Kaiwen’s hand and placed it on her leg.
Feeling the smooth touch, Huang Kaiwen felt at ease.
“Let me tell you a secret, I’m not wearing anything underneath.” The young lady said softly.
Huang Kaiwen’s eyes widened instantly.
If the occasion were different, he really would have liked to investigate the truth immediately.
After two more awards were given,
Barbara whispered a reminder, “The big prize is coming up.”
Huang Kaiwen collected himself, wiped the sweat from his hands on the chair without drawing attention, and sat upright.
Umberto Eco, whom he had just seen, was the one going up to present the award.
The young lady had arranged for him to present the final award; it would be strange if they hadn’t agreed on this beforehand.
He, Huang, was too naive to believe what the young lady had said.
Umberto Eco started reading from his script, “Among many works, there was a novel that left a profound impression on me and the jury.
It has the beauty of a sonnet, yet it is as flexible as prose, vigorous while being rigorous.
The book contains deep reflections like those in ‘The Count of Monte Cristo’ and the succinct style Shakespeare used in ‘Hamlet’.
The plot is suspenseful, and each chapter and section is filled with the author’s thoughts, well-paced, seemingly about urban life, yet upon closer examination, it is a contemplation of human nature, skillfully engaging readers to continue while expressing his own thoughts, keeping characters lively on paper, I thought the author would be a gray-haired sage, but it turns out to be a 22-year-old genius writer.
And now, I pronounce ‘The Ultimate Great Young Master Filippo’ as the winner of the Milan International Youth Literature Award, congratulations, Kevin!”
