European people were elated about the news, as Qin Guan was one of the few Asian stars they were interested in . Of course, they were all focused on the Venice Festival and wondering if the handsome man would win his final major European award .
People were even betting on it, with odds of about 1 . 08 . This meant that most people expected Qin Guan to succeed . They believed that he would definitely win an award at the Venice Film Festival .
The Daily Express would be glad to get any news from him . The short interview took place in a quiet hall on the ground floor .
"Hi, Mr . Qin Guan . I'm Tom from the Daily Express . Thank you for your cooperation . I know you are really busy these days . Don't worry, I won't take up too much of your time . I only have a short list of questions . "
"No worries, I still have some time left . "
"Okay, thank you . First, I would like to ask the question that your English fans are most concerned about . I understand that both of your films have been shortlisted by the Venice Film Festival . What do you think about that? Will you make a grand slam this time?"
Qin Guan shrugged with a smile .
"You are asking the wrong person . I think you should ask the judges and the audience instead . I hope the Venetian gods will give me their blessing . "
"Ha ha! You are really funny, Qin Guan . If you failed to win an award, would you question the organizing committee's criteria?"
"Never!" Qin Guan shook his head firmly . "There are all kinds of factors in play . Plus, failing once doesn't mean anything . I'm new at the festival after all . I wll get another chance in the future . "
"I will win the award one day . I expect that I will win the Lifetime Achievement Award in a couple of decades . . . "
The young man's confidence helped the interview flow smoothly . Tom, who was curious about the Asian star's last words, decided to test him with an acute question .
Thus, he skipped two questions and asked the very last one .
"The next question is . . . "
"Is that the third one?"
"Yes . . . "
Tom cast a confused look at Qin Guan . Is something wrong?
"Everyone knows that Madame Tussauds is a way to keep in touch with people, just like our newspaper is . Thanks to its history and professionalism, the museum has managed to have a collection of sculptures with big historical significance or entertainment value . Today, your sculpture will be in the same place as Stalin's, Churchill's and Thatcher's . Do you think you deserve this? Can your fame and contribution even be compared to theirs?"
Tom had pulled a trick on him . As an entertainment star, Qin Guan belonged in a completely different field than those political figures .
Qin Guan smiled at him .
"You are the funniest guy I have ever met, Tom . If I had passed the national examination for civil servants and worked for the Chinese government for 20 years, I would have been able to give you a better answer . "
"As it is, I just want to say that every field has talented people . Maybe 100 years from now, my work will be considered a milestone in the history of the entertainment circle . You'll have to live longer to find out the answer . "
Tom was shocked . Qin Guan patted his shoulder and whispered, "That was three questions . "
"Yes, thank you for your time . It was nice to meet you . "
Tom shook Qin Guan's hand . Was that my line?
Qin Guan and his team left the museum, leaving Tom and the principal behind .
