That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 590: It’s just to prevent me from being jealous!
"Special Jury Award for Excellence. "Kiss of the Spider Woman" and "Jacques' November"."

"Best Director Award: Peter Cosa's "Time Stands Still"."

As the awards were announced one after another, the crew members of "Homelander" became nervous.

Because up to now, only the final grand prize has not been announced, but "Homelander" has not won anything.

Although everyone is looking forward to winning the most important Best Picture award, the competition between "The Typhoon Club" and "Homeland" has been a hot topic in newspapers in recent days.

According to the analysis of relevant reviews, "Typhoon Club" seems to have the upper hand.

Because many people say that "Homeland" is a "big-budget" historical landscape film that only brings visual enjoyment to the audience but lacks spiritual exploration.

In contrast, "Typhoon Club" fully explores the relationship between family and society.

The young students in the movie all come from incomplete or problematic family backgrounds, which affects their growth and interpersonal relationships.

By showing their conflicts and struggles, the film reveals the importance of family to 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 and how to find balance and independence between family and society, and guides them to think about the individual's position in society and the struggle to find their true self.

In a word, "Homeland" is too commercial and not artistic enough. Just like the difference between Cannes and Oscars, it is not suitable for the style of Tokyo Film Festival.

And according to Li Ye's memory, in the following few sessions of the Tokyo Film Festival, the major awards were won by art films from the mainland.

"Old Well", "New Year", "Blue Kite" and "The Prodigal Son". Won the championship for eight consecutive years.

However, Li Ye remembered that when he watched "The Prodigal Son", he felt very depressed. It was completely different from the film "Homeland" which showed the former strength of the flower-growing family. He didn't know whether the feeling of depression was an artistic reaction.

Now, "Homeland" has swept the entire East Asian film market and is the undisputed box office champion. If it fails to win any prize here, wouldn't that just add a gimmick to this film festival and attract more news attention?
Li Ye turned his head and looked 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.

"The winner for Best Picture is."

The host dragged out the tone, and after earning enough anticipation from the audience, he loudly announced: "'Hometown Lonely Army', congratulations to all the friends who came from afar."

"Wow~"

Several people around Li Ye jumped up, including the already quite old director Lao Xie.

Although he had won numerous awards overseas before, this time he gained both fame and fortune, which can be considered as winning both face and substance.

When Li Ye looked at the young actors in "Typhoon Club" again, they were obviously very depressed, and one child even shed tears.

[Young people, you don’t know how to pretend! ]

Lao Xie and Pan Hong went on stage together to receive the award and gave their acceptance speeches.

“First of all, I would like to thank the organizers. The reason we made this film is to explore the splendid culture that has been buried in history.”

Lao Xie's speech was written by Yang Yumin, a writer. It completely conforms to the lofty and noble intentions, and elevates a historical film to the level of promoting historical culture.

However, at the end of his speech, Old Xie suddenly changed the subject and looked in Li Ye's direction and said, "Finally, I would like to thank the original authors of "Hometown Lonely Army".

It is their silent persistence that has unearthed more history, culture and stories, resulting in better and more exciting films.”

The photographers at the scene all looked towards the crew of "Homeward Bound", and finally, based on the gazes of several other crew members, they locked onto Li Ye.

"Whoa whoa whoa~"

Amid the warm applause, Li Ye naturally raised his hand slightly to signal, and his calm demeanor was no less than those experienced movie kings and queens.

Someone nearby joked, "Student Li Ye, you are really stylish!"

Li Ye smiled faintly and said, "Nothing special, I just saw it too many times."

. . . . . . . . The next day, on the plane returning to Beijing from Tokyo.

"Student Li Ye, take a look at these newspapers. All of our limelight has fallen on you alone! No, you have to treat everyone to a good meal when you return to the capital."

"What you said is true. Can you blame Li Ye for wanting to use Li Ye's photo? But I can still treat you to a good meal. I really miss the food in my hometown now."

"That's right, that dish looks good but tastes bad."

Because "Homeland" won the grand prize at the film festival, everyone was very happy. Even Team Leader Zhou, who was concentrating on how to write a self-criticism when he returned home, could not frown.

When I left this morning, several morning newspapers had published Li Ye's photo with an introduction to "Seven Inch Blade" attached, so everyone teased Li Ye for being "the most popular" and urged him to treat them all.

"Okay, after we get off the plane, you guys pick a place and I'll treat everyone to dinner."

"Hey, hey, hey, you guys are done! I'm a very honest brother, you guys should know your limits when joking around. Do you really need someone to pay for a meal? Come to me, Old Bear, and I promise to make sure everyone is comfortable."

"You old bear are just too generous. If you spend your own money to treat us all, we will respect you."

"Go, we men in Chang'an keep our words."

A group of people were chatting and laughing on the plane, somewhat forgetting about the environment, so it seemed a bit noisy.

Then a girl in front became unhappy.

"Can you please keep your voices down? Can't you be quiet in public?"

"."

Lao Xiong and others were stunned. Looking at the girl who stood up in front of them, they wanted to say something to her, but they felt they were in the wrong. They felt ashamed and uncomfortable for a moment.

The girl glanced at Li Ye before sitting 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 around and saw Wen Leyu's eyes clearly asking, "Who is that woman? What's her relationship with you?"

Li Ye whispered, "Li Dayong's ex-girlfriend broke up with him because of differences in 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.

On the flight that Li Ye took, there were passengers transferring from Dengta to the mainland, and Lin Qiuyan was obviously one of them.

Wen Leyu nodded to show that he understood.

She had heard about Li Dayong's story from Jiang Xiaoyan, and she also knew Lin Qiuyan.

However, Wen Leyu immediately poked Li Ye again: "What if she runs into Li Dayong and Pei Wenhui later?"

Li Ye and Wen Leyu both looked towards the business class in front.

Fu Yiru and Pei Wenhui are sitting in the front now!
And considering 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 each other.
Li Ye shook his head slowly: "It's okay. Although Pei Wenhui is not as smart as you, she is also reasonable and will not be jealous."

Wen Leyu stared at Li Ye's eyes for a long time before curling his lips in disdain.

She had met Lu Jingyao many times, and she understood the hidden meaning behind Li Ye's words.

[You said it so nicely, but you just want me to not be jealous! Tsk~]
