This foreshadowing is buried everywhere in the movie.
The grandma of the printing shop said that grandpa was always confused when he was young. Grandpa was never a person who made decisions immediately and did what he wanted. He was at the mercy of others all his life. When he was young, his parents did not allow him to enter his parents' house In the bedroom, my grandfather married my grandmother because of the son, my grandfather fell in love with another girl, and chose to protect the family under the persuasion of "friends". The compressor that my grandfather lent others never tried to get it back, and my grandfather's car repair shop was a few hundred dollars. The money was sold to "friends". Grandpa may have really wanted to own a farm when he was young, but as he said, this dispensable childhood wish has long since been forgotten. He even wanted to eat fried chicken. Forcibly changed to boiled beef. He didn't know how many simple ideas or crazy wishes he had in his life, all of which died due to the obstruction of parents, friends, and family members again and again. Grandpa doesn't like to talk, doesn't like to argue with others, he has been compromising all his life, and until the end of the candle, he just uses the madness of the "old child" to achieve the only persistence in his life.
Did Grandpa really think he won the lottery? Not exactly, I'm afraid there is a one in ten thousand possibility in his heart, but what about the choices in life? Whether a marriage is a lifetime of happiness or a tomb of love, who has full confidence? Accepting a job, who can determine whether it will be a leap forward or never? Grandpa doesn't know how many times in his life he has heard "it's impossible" and "absolutely not". Grandpa's son told him that if there is even a chance that you will win the lottery, I will take you there. Do you believe me? Grandpa nodded. I don't know how many times this kind of thing has happened, but, even so, Grandpa just wanted to make it impossible for him to stick to it this time. Just for this 1/10,000th, or even the hope of infinitely approaching zero, what can I do?
Were grandpa disappointed when he didn't win the award? Sure, but it's nowhere near as bad as when his "old friend" taunted him for his whims in a bar with a winning letter. The reason why Grandpa fainted was probably because he saw that he was distrusted again and was told "you can't do it".
Grandpa finally showed the whole village that he could do it, even if it wasn't a prize, but the hard work he insisted on to the end was what he wanted to show off. "This time I just won't listen to you", smashing those doubts. his man's face.
Is grandpa sad? It's so sad, but he can leave this world without regrets. Even if it is only this time in a lifetime, there are some sad people who do not know how much better.
Persevere for a dream, even if there is nothing at the end, is in vain, and is extremely disappointed, who knows how much vicissitudes of life can be harvested in the process of persevering!
