Chapter 590: It’s Just to Prevent Me From Getting Jealous!
"Jury Special Outstanding Award. "Kiss of the Spider Woman" and "Jacques's November"."
"Best Director Award for Peter Gossart's "Time Stands Still."
As the awards were announced one after another, the crew of "Looking Home" became nervous.
Because up to now, only the final grand prize has not been announced, but "Looking Homeward" still has no results.
Although everyone is extremely looking forward to winning the most important Best Picture Award, in recent days, newspapers have been talking about the competition between "Typhoon Club" and "Hometown".
According to the analysis of relevant comments, "Typhoon Club" seems to have the upper hand.
Because many people say that "Looking Homeward" is a "big-budget" historical landscape film that only brings visual enjoyment to the audience but lacks exploration of the soul.
On the other hand, "Typhoon Club" fully explores the relationship between family and society.
The young students in the film all come from incomplete or problematic family backgrounds, which affects their growth and relationships.
By showing their various conflicts and struggles, the film reveals the importance of family in the formation and growth of individual identity, and expresses questioning and rebellion against traditional concepts and social expectations.
It also encourages the audience to think about the impact of family on individual development, how to find balance and independence between family and society, and guides the audience to think about the individual's position in society and the struggle to pursue the true self.
All in all, "Looking Home" is too commercial and not artistic enough. Just like the difference between Cannes and Oscars, it is not suitable for the creative style of the Tokyo Film Festival.
And according to Li Ye’s memory, in the following Tokyo Film Festival, literary and artistic films from the Mainland won the grand prize in the following years.
"Old Well", "New Year", "Blue Kite" and "Heavenly Son" have won the first prize for eight consecutive years.
However, Li Ye remembered that when he first watched the movie "Heaven's Unfaithful Son", he felt very depressing. It was completely different from a movie like "Looking Homeward", which showed the powerful flower growers in the past, and he didn't know the depressing feeling. Is it an artistic reaction?
Now, "Looking Homeward" has swept the entire East Asian film market and is the undisputed box office champion. If it fails to receive any revenue from you, is it just adding a gimmick to this film festival to gain more news attention?
Li Ye turned to look at a group of young people in the distance. They were actors from "Typhoon Club". Looking at their expressions, they were even more nervous than Li Ye.
"Winning best picture is..."
The host drew a long note, and after satisfying the audience's expectations, he announced loudly: ""Looking Homeward", congratulations to our friends who came from afar."
"Wow~"
Several people around Li Ye jumped up, including director Lao Xie, who was already quite old.
Although he has won numerous awards overseas before, this time he gained both fame and fortune, which can be regarded as a gain in face and respect.
When Li Ye watched the young actors in "Typhoon Club" again, he was obviously very frustrated, and one of the children even shed tears.
[Young man, you don’t know how to pretend! 】
Lao Xie and Pan Hong went on stage to receive the award together and delivered an acceptance speech.
"First of all, I would like to thank the organizers. The reason why we made this film is to dig out the splendid culture that is buried in history."
Lao Xie's speech was written by Yang Yumin, which is completely in line with the concept of high, big and superior, and elevates a historical movie to the height of promoting history and culture.
However, at the end of his speech, Lao Xie suddenly changed the topic, looked in the direction of Li Ye and said: "Finally, I would like to thank the original authors of "Looking Homeward",
It is their obscurity and persistence that has unearthed more history, culture and stories, and produced better and more exciting movies one after another. "
The photographers at the scene all glanced at the crew of "Looking Homeward", and finally locked on Li Ye based on the gazes of several other staff members.
"Hua Hua Hua~"
Amidst the warm applause, Li Ye naturally raised his hand slightly to signal, with a calm look, which was even better than those experienced movie kings and queens.
Someone next to me joked: "Classmate Li Ye, you are really cool!"
Li Ye smiled lightly and said, "Without him, I just saw too much."
. . . . . . . . .
The next day, on the plane returning to the mainland capital from Tokyo.
"Classmate Li Ye, look at these newspapers. The limelight of all of us falls on you alone! No, you have to treat everyone to a good meal after you return to the capital."
"As you said, a stupid newspaper is willing to use Li Ye's photo. Can you blame Li Ye? But it's okay to treat me to a delicious meal. Now I miss the food in our hometown."
"That's right, what kind of food is that? I don't like it, but I don't like it."
Because "Looking Homeward" won the grand prize at the film festival, everyone was very happy. Even Team Leader Zhou, who was thinking about how to write an inspection when he went back, couldn't frown.
When I left this morning, Li Ye's photos were published in several morning newspapers, with the introduction of "Seven Inch Blade" attached. That's why everyone teased Li Ye for being "unparalleled in the limelight" and rushed to treat him to a treat.
"Okay, after you get off the plane, you pick a place and I'll treat you all to dinner."
"Hey, hey, you guys can do it! I am an honest brother, and you guys know how to joke around. Do you still need to treat yourself to dinner? Come to me, Lao Xiong, and I will make sure that everyone is comfortable."
"You, Lao Xiong, are just too generous. If you spend your own money to treat everyone, we will be convinced by you."
"Go, we are men in Chang'an, and we keep our words."
A group of people were chatting and laughing on the plane, forgetting the environment, and it seemed a bit noisy.
Then a girl in front was unhappy.
"Can you keep your voice down? Can't you keep quiet in public?"
"."
Lao Xiong and others were stunned, looking at the girl who stood up in front, wanting to say a few words, but felt guilty, ashamed and uncomfortable for a while.
The girl glanced at Li Ye and sat down again.
But not long after, the girl got up to go to the bathroom, and when she passed by Li Ye, she glanced at him again.
The quick-witted Wen Leyu immediately realized something and poked Li Ye with his elbow.
Li Ye turned his head and saw Wen Leyu's eyes clearly asking: "Who is that woman? What is your relationship with her?"
Li Ye whispered: "Li Dayong's ex-girlfriend, broke up because of different values, and later went to Dengta to study abroad."
Lin Qiuyan is one grade higher than Li Dayong, and according to the time, she has just graduated.
There are passengers who transfer from Dengta to the mainland on the flight that Li Ye took, and Lin Qiuyan is obviously one of them.
Wen Leyu nodded to show that she understood.
She heard about Li Dayong's story from Jiang Xiaoyan, and she also knew this Lin Qiuyan.
But Wen Leyu immediately poked Li Ye again: "What if she meets Li Dayong and Pei Wenhui later?"
Li Ye and Wen Leyu both looked at the business class in front.
Fu Yiruo and Pei Wenhui are sitting in the front now!
And given how much Li Dayong loves Pei Wenhui, he will definitely come to pick her up at the airport, and then the ex and current will meet.
Li Ye shook his head slowly: "It's okay. Although Pei Wenhui is not as smart as you, she is also reasonable and won't be jealous."
Wen Leyu stared at Li Ye's eyes for a long time before curling her lips in disdain.
She and Lu Jingyao have met many times, and it's not like she doesn't understand the hidden meaning of Li Ye's words.
[You said it so nicely, isn't it just to stop me from being jealous! Tsk~]
