#Quote
1Emotion is the most essential element in my films. By taking many shots from different angles, I can bring out the emotions of a scene. The sequence's tempo can be controlled by sharp editing and by paying close attention to camera operations.
2Everything in a film, including a horror film, must relate to the characters in the story. Whether the audience buys the story or not depends on how you treat the material. We use new techniques and characters to change it.
3A commercial film must be entertaining. Film is a mass medium, so we attempt to become one with the audience. Otherwise, sooner or later the audience will confront you. They'll say, "I don't believe it." Sometimes, even after 20 minutes of a film, I don't know what it's about. That's bad; the director can explain the logic all he wants, and it doesn't matter. The masses go to feel, not to understand.
4Wuxia culture is like another dimension that provides us with strong emotion, strong passion. I have always been a fan of Wuxia movies. They give us a refreshed view of what we had before, of the values and of the way we looked at life.
