The Beauty and the Brain

Chapter 174

If it weren’t for the certainty that Dennis wouldn’t stoop to bribing the judges for her, Marie would have

doubted the value of this trophy!

Originally, she was already quite satisfied with Sasha winning an award alone. When Darwin also won

an

award, it was like hitting the lottery. It was such a pleasant surprise!

Darwin smirked, “Who are you looking down on? Don’t I deserve the award?”

Marie was in a good mood, so even when she saw Darwin’s proud expression, she didn’t bother

arguing with him. Instead, she laughed and said, “Yes, yes, you’re right! Best actor Indeed!”

Sasha said, ‘Marie, you’ve changed.”

Marie shook her head wisely, “Material things can drive people crazy…”

Darwin was rendered speechless.

The live stream channel had gone completely crazy, with the dense comments covering the video.

One commented: [Darwin! My husband won the best actor award!]

Another wrote: [Darwin, marry me!]

One wrote: [The young soldier in The Pianist was really handsome, wasn’t he?]

Another commented: [I originally thought Darwin was just an idol star, but why does he look so cool

with a

gun too!]

One wrote: [Darwin, don’t come back pale, you’ll look even more handsome with a tan!]

Another wrote: [What kind of amazing boss is Marie? She won two big awards at once!]

Another commented: [Why am I still lying in bed picking my feet when Marie and I are the same age,

yet she’s already the boss of the best actor and best actress?]

One wrote: [I’ve wanted to support Marie for a lifetime! She’s a strong woman!]

Another wrote: [The strong woman didn’t dare to say it, but her judgment of people was really accurate!

Back then, Darwin was a tyrant in the entertainment industry that nobody wanted to deal with!]

One commented: [What a big concession!]

Suddenly, Marie’s small and unremarkable studio, which used to be called a small studio, produced a

best actor and a best actress. After that night, the direction of the entertainment industry changed.

Olive sat behind Marie, tightly clutching her skirt. She had put in a lot of effort to persuade her father to

open a studio for her, brought in Shirley, and teamed up with William.

However, she tried every possible way to outwit Marie, but in the end, it was still Marie who had the last

laugh.

Get Boos

Sitting on both sides of her, Sasha and Darwin each held a trophy in their hands and fiercely slapped

Shirley’s

face.

At first, she thought the small studio was insignificant, that Marie couldn’t accomplish anything, and

she

looked down on Sasha. But now, all of them had become things she couldn’t shake!

After that night, not only the entertainment industry, but even the direction of the Spence family might

change!

How could Marie possibly pass up such a great opportunity?

She held a Best Actor and Best Actress award in her hands, and although young, her acting skills were

in no way inferior to others.

At that moment, it was the best time for her to outshine Olive!

Mason had always looked down on Marie’s so-called studio. In his heart, Olive was the daughter who

brought

him glory, while Marie was just playing around and amounted to nothing.

Moreover, the day Marie announced that she was the owner of Maris Entertainment, she completely

drove

Carly out of the entertainment industry and even out of the Spence family. Mason always believed that

Marie

stepped on Carly to rise to power, and he was utterly disgusted with her.

Marie didn’t care at all whether Mason liked her or not. What she wanted was never Mason’s stingy

paternal

love, but rather the entire Spence family and Spence Group.

She wanted to show her achievements to Asher and Spence Group shareholders, so that Asher could

be

more determined about who should receive the shares and control of Spence Group.

Marie’s studio may have appeared to be just a small one, but it had everything one could need.

Besides the

artists, there were assistants, public relations staff, and not a single person was missing.

The awards ceremony had just ended when, at Marie’s suggestion, her team posted a small article

titled [The

Development of Maris Entertainment Media.] The article detailed how Marie had built up the company

from

an empty shell of a small studio, step by step signing Zane, Sasha, and Darwin, and how she had

gradually

elevated their status from being unknown contestants, obscure, and notorious to their current

positions.

Indeed, Zane had a strong foundation in singing, and both Sasha and Darwin were not lacking in

acting

skills. However, without Marie’s all-in decision and full support, the three of them would not have Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

reached

their current position in the complex and chaotic entertainment industry.

With extremely high popularity, outstanding appearance, strong capabilities, and the added boost from

today’s award, Maris Entertainment’s artists will soon be as famous as Olive in the entertainment

Industry,

dominating half of the sky!

Although this article openly discussed how Maris Entertainment and several artists were doing well, it

subtly

revealed Marie’s role in the growth and development of the studio, as well as her shrewd and intelligent

business mind. This forced people to reevaluate the unappreciated Marie from the Spence family.

After the awards ceremony, there was a banquet. Following every awards ceremony, the organizers

would

definitely hold a banquet, and most of the actors and artists would attend.

Get Bonts

This banquet was not for eating and drinking, but rather an occasion and opportunity for actors, artists,

investors, directors, and producers to get to know each other. Moreover, the media was not allowed at

the

banquet to protect the privacy of the artists and business people.

Especially for award-winning actors like Sasha and Darwin, their value would definitely increase after

tonight, and many resources would be directly offered to them. Marie wouldn’t need to run around

discussing collaborations and scripts anymore; instead, people would bring scripts and advertisements

to her office.

So, even though they were exhausted from attending an awards ceremony, Darwin and Sasha still

obediently. followed Marie to the banquet.

Marie was no longer invisible, as Sasha’s heartfelt award acceptance speech on stage let everyone

know that Marie was her talent scout.

Moreover, Darwin was a well-known tyrant. Andres couldn’t control him, but he was tamed by Marie

alone. Little did others know, Darwin was simply terrified of being abused by Marie.

So, in order to collaborate with Sasha and Darwin, it was necessary to please Marie.

At this banquet, Marie never had a moment of rest. She dealt with various producers, directors, and

investors. Many people directly arranged advertisements with Marie, asking for Sasha to be the

photographer.

Given Sasha’s popularity nowadays, the promotional effect of shooting an advertisement was truly not

to be underestimated.

Darwin held a drink and stood to the side, watching Christopher talk to Sasha. He clenched his teeth,

walked over, and pulled Sasha away, saying, “Marie is looking for you!”

As Darwin was pulling Sasha away, Christopher was a bit stunned. Just as he was about to speak,

Darwin turned his head and glared at him, saying. “Everyone wants to hit on our family’s best actress!”

Sasha kicked Darwin and said, “What nonsense are you talking about? Christopher, don’t listen to his

nonsense.”

Darwin pulled Sasha forward, muttering, “What nonsense did I say? I am the best actor now! That’s

why I can talk to you!”

Sasha was rendered speechless.
