To make a kung fu film is like a dream come true, because I'm a big fan of kung fu movies and I'm learning kung fu for a long time.

I did learn Chinese kung-fu in a school for a short time, but I couldn't afford to pay for long-term learning.

One very important element for me to make a movie is, it has to be unique and different from any other.

Why do I use the same actors in different movies? One of the things I really stress in casting is I need to find someone who is suitable for the role in the movie. That's always the main reason.

I'm extremely busy and running around requires a lot of energy.

A creation needs not only subjectivity, but also objectivity.

I was very poor. As a child my dream was to have a leather football.

Kung fu and soccer are the two things that I was most interested in as a child.

When I was an actor in some movies a long time ago, I was so curious about all the camera movements - why is the camera placed here, and why does it move like this? And why the set and the background, the color? It's a lot of questions for me to ask, because I was so interested, not only in acting, but also the whole process of filmmaking.
