Young actor Lü Yulai
On August 5th, the 12th Film Performance Art Society Award (Golden Phoenix Award) award series events kicked off in the Qingdao Development Zone. Young actor Lü Yulai, who had just finished shooting the public welfare film *February*, rushed to Qingdao to attend the awards ceremony. This time, he won the "Golden Phoenix" Award, gaining professional recognition for his outstanding performance in *The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl*.
Lü Yulai once walked the red carpet at the Cannes and Hong Kong International Film Festivals again thanks to *The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl*. His delicate portrayal of inner emotions and his breakthrough performance in this film earned widespread praise from many domestic and international film professionals. From *Peacock* to *Red Combine*, and from *Gentleman's Fashion* to *The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl*, Lü Yulai has evolved from a naive youth into a mature actor through his sincerity and hard work. It is reported that Lü Yulai was shooting until the early hours of the morning on August 5th, but in order to support the various activities of the Film Performance Art Society Award, he traveled directly to Qingdao without resting. In the afternoon, he also participated in the tree-planting activity of the "Film and Television Star Forest" alongside many senior performing artists.
The Film Performance Art Society Award is one of the authoritative and influential professional film awards in China's film industry. The award ceremony of this session not only featured a star-studded award gala but also specially arranged many "cultural and artistic" activities, promoting exchanges among three generations of actors: seniors, middle-aged, and young performers.
