Tokyo Literature and Art Times

   Chapter 83 Jury Prize!

   The closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival, held at the Palais des Cinemas.

   To be exact, it is the Lumiere Hall of the Film Palace.

  The house number of the Movie Palace is No. 1 Binhai Avenue, so the red carpet ceremony is naturally full of the atmosphere of the ocean.

   At three o'clock in the afternoon, Binhai Avenue was already crowded with people.

The Cannes Film Festival itself is the most representative of the three major European film festivals. Although it is not as long as the Venice Film Festival, and it is not as rich as the Berlin Film Festival, the founder of this film festival is the father of film, Lumière. you.

   Moreover, its artistry, commerciality, and popularity are all top-notch in the world.

  Today's closing ceremony, bringing together world-renowned filmmakers and media reporters from all over the world, is not surprising.

   It’s just that there are many more Asian faces among the reporters.

   "Iwata-san, can I win the prize?"

   "Who knows that."

   "Also, will Miho Nakayama come?"

   "Huh? This movie has nothing to do with her, right?"

   "But she is the heroine's sister after all!"

"Right."

   "Have you photographed Akina Nakamori before?"

   "Hey, I took a picture of her shopping with coffee."

   "You bastard! Good luck!"

   They are all reporters from RB and are affiliated with major newspapers.

   In fact, RB's newspapers are very rich. Originally, the paper media used to be very popular, but now, the five people in Tokyo can actually be regarded as the product of the cooperation between the newspaper and the film company.

   Now is the stage of rapid economic expansion, and the newspaper office is even richer, and sending a professional team to it is just a general behavior of throwing money.

   There is still a certain distance from the big coin.

  In any case, it is not easy to come out. It is comfortable to take public funds to appreciate the exotic scenery, but it is also necessary to work hard. These reporters are very hardworking.

   Now, at the most critical moment, waiting for the protagonist to appear.

   The protagonist in their hearts is naturally Takeshi Iwata.

coming!

   On the red carpet, he has passed many movie celebrities and the main creative team, such as "Paradise Cinema" and "Xing, Lies and Videotapes".

   Finally, Iwata Takeshi, this vicious man appeared on the other side of the red carpet.

  …

  RB is still a bit rigid.

  The newspaper office sent a lot of people over, but the TV station still did not buy the broadcast rights.

  So, Mitani, a young scriptwriter, came to Iwata Studio again.

   "Sangu-san, it seems that it will be difficult to win this time."

   "That's right! Not only are the opponents very strong, but the jury is also very talented."

   "You never come home empty-handed, right?"

   "This, it's hard to say."

  Matsu Shigetoyo, Endo Kenichi, Kagawa Teruyuki, the three of them were naturally present.

  There is a 7-hour time difference between Cannes and RB. The film festival starts at 10 o'clock in the evening, and they don't have much work. It's just right to watch the broadcast.

  Cat, Yu, Qing, how could they be missing?

   Now hearing Mitani Koki say this, his eyes have changed.

As soon as   Mitani saw it, he immediately continued: "But it's not that there is no chance. The comments from various parties that can be seen so far, Iwata-san's "That Summer, the Sea of ​​Tranquility" can be said to be one of the most popular works."

   "Siguoyi!"

   "So, it's very likely that you won an award?"

"awesome!"

   You said that earlier, and a group of people smiled again.

  Mitani let out a sigh of relief in his heart, but he still chose to tell the truth.

"So far, "xing, lies and videotape" has also been well received, and the Italian film "Paradise Cinema", the French film "You Don't Deserve Her" is also quite good, the British film "Song of the Wanderer", "Cry in the Dark Night" "This is Meryl Streep, and those films are very competitive."

   A group of guys who can only say 'Si Guoyi', after hearing the names of these movies reported by Sangu, they immediately entered a state of confusion.

  Fortunately, they will say 'Siguoyi'.

  Iwata Studio, a large-scale unintelligible incident occurred.

  Sangu is a little proud, a literate person like himself has a great sense of superiority compared to them.

   However, Sangu also knew that he had to say something nice, and this nice thing was also the truth.

   "Not without a chance!"

"Really?"

   One sentence grabbed everyone's heart again.

  Mitani said very solemnly: "The chairman of the jury this time is Wim Wenders, who made a documentary about "Finding Ozu" four years ago, which is the documentary of the famous supervisor Yasujiro Ozu, so..."

   After saying this, everyone was excited.

   "Aha! He's our man!"

"Great!"

   "Boss, you will definitely win an award, right? Haha..."

   Seeing their excited appearance, Sangu complained inwardly:

   How can it be so simple!

   However, Wim Wenders likes RB movies, which is a sure thing.

   Thinking of this, Mitani became even more envious of his lifelong enemy.

   Takeshi Iwata, you guys are so lucky!

   At this moment, Matsushige Feng shouted, "Come!"

   Everyone hurriedly looked at the TV, and through the signal from the satellite, Takeshi Iwata appeared.

   is still so fierce, still so imposing.

   "Old Big Game!"

   "Go! The boss will win!"

   "Dry!"

   Everyone is working hard, regardless of whether Takeshi Iwata can hear you or not.

The atmosphere of    moved Sangu inexplicably. Sometimes these guys are pretty good.

  …

   Takeshi Iwata is still wearing the shirt he wore at RB Oscar. After all, the clothes are quite expensive, and he doesn't want to spend a lot of money on this.

   Anyway, it's no longer a matter of appearance.

   And at the closing ceremony today, the lineup of "That Summer, Tranquil Sea" was expanded.

   Shinobi and Masato Sakai, of course, are going to appear, and so is Shinji Terajima.

   But… sure enough!

   "Miho, look this way!"

   "Miho is so beautiful!"

   Nakayama Miho, appeared again in the middle of Iwata Takeshi and Shinobi.

  I am the elder sister, guarding the side of the immature younger sister, right and proper!

  Iwata Takeshi could only helplessly laugh, and Shinobu even snickered.

   But it must be said that Miho is still beautiful.

   There is another person, the top of his head is slightly transparent.

   Hisaishi Jo!

  His appearance is really surprising, and the accident happened unexpectedly…

  Who is he?

  It doesn't matter, just shoot someone else.

  Iwata Takeshi, such a ferocious man, looks a lot better against the backdrop of the Zhongshan sisters.

  …

   Akina came to the Lumiere Hall early in the morning.

   She sits on the second floor, where the view is better.

As soon as   Iwata Takeshi and the others came in, Akina saw it.

This guy

   For some reason, Akina was a little nervous.

   Must be because of that bet.

   This guy won't win!

   Bet, be competitive, not shabby.

   But in fact, there is another voice in her heart.

   Iwata-san's movie deserves an award!

The sound of    became stronger and stronger.

   Akina's eyes looking at Takeshi Iwata also slowly changed.

  …

   "You must win an award, right?"

   "Miho, let me remind you, this movie has nothing to do with you at all."

   "I'm for Shinobi!"

   "Okay, I see."

   It's a little surprising, it seems that among the group of Takeshi Iwata, Miho is most looking forward to the award.

   Regarding this matter, Xiao Ren did a good job. Her little sister patted her hand and reassured her.

   Miho was inexplicably moved, and she didn't hurt her sister in vain.

   Then, what about Takeshi Iwata?

   Honestly, he really has no idea.

   Like Mitani, Takeshi Iwata knows that Wim Wenders actually likes RB movies.

   But so what?

   People are fans of Yasujiro Ozu, not Takeshi Iwata.

   Therefore, the vicious man is also very anxious.

   "Supervisor! It must be possible!"

   "Yes! There is definitely no problem!"

   Masato Sakai and Shinji Terajima sent encouragement.

   Even Hisaishi Joo, who has become stronger, has a firm look in his eyes.

  Iwata Takeshi saw this, and a surge of momentum emerged spontaneously.

   "You will definitely win!"

   This sentence is a bit more powerful than the previous sentence.

   The main creative team of "That Summer, Tranquil Sea" plus a non-staff member Miho Nakayama is full of morale!

  …

  In the hall of Lumiere, a string of names were read out.

   Akina didn't even notice, she had already clenched her fist.

  Why not yet?

   Wouldn't it really be impossible to get an award?

   That oneself...

   Actually, Akina has already agreed in her heart.

   What she thought before was that whenever there was an award, she would agree to appear in that movie.

now what?

   Even if there is no award, do you agree?

   This is not good.

  …

   On the podium, it is like a revolving lantern.

  Nakayama Miho was already very anxious, and she turned her attention to Iwata Takeshi.

  Why haven't our names been called yet?

   Takeshi Iwata has been expressionless since the very beginning.

   This is his best state, but in his heart.

   Best Actress, Best Actor.

   has already reached this point, what other awards are there?

  Best Director? !

  Emile Kusturica won the award for "Song of the Wanderers".

   How many are left?

  Iwata Takeshi was also a little flustered in his heart. He could feel the gazes of Shinobu, Masato Sakai, Shin Terashima, Joe Hisaishi, and Miho.

   They were also a little flustered.

   But you have to be steady!

until

   "The 42nd Cannes Film Festival, Grand Prix of the Jury..."Paradise Cinema"..."

   When this name was called, Iwata Takeshi said the truth, and his mentality was a little broken.

   After this grand prize, only the Palme d'Or remains.

   Could it be that he won the Palme d'Or when he was nominated for Cannes for the first time?

   What about peaches?

   But at this moment, the award presenter read out the name of another movie!

   "..."That Summer, Tranquil Sea"!"

   this, this is

   even got me a double yolk egg!

  …

  Iwata Takeshi didn't know, but at this moment, the clenched fist of the beauty on the second floor also loosened.
