Qi Hao was waiting for someone for dinner in the restaurant.
While waiting, he browsed through the messages on his phone, feeling an immense pressure. This Best Director award feels a bit overwhelming.
It's foreseeable that when "First Love, This Little Thing" is released, a bunch of people will definitely criticize it.
As the Golden Horse Best Director, what kind of thing is this that you've made?
Which Golden Horse Best Director is as reckless as you?
But the movie's already been made; it can't just not be released.
Moreover, Qi Hao doesn't accept others' definitions of him, and he never intended to just keep making art films to win trophies.
To achieve greatness, both art films and commercial films need to be in one's repertoire.
Just like Zhang Yimou.
However, the person he's meeting today isn't Zhang Yimou, but Li Xuejian.
In 1997, Qi Hao went to "Jing Ke Stabs the King of Qin" set as an extra, but he didn't get to know Chen Kaige.
