Director HAO Jie

I want to show my understanding and feelings about this era and about life in a story of a teenager pursuing his ambition in film. I also want every spectator to think about what a genuine dream and true happiness are.

What moves me most is the hero’s return after lost in fame, fortune and vanity. It is not easy, but it is a wish of mine. I also hope I myself could return.

I hope the audience could feel perceptions about China, about youth and about dreams and think about these themes.

The Golden Horse Film Project Promotion is one of the most professional film pitching platforms. By participating FPP 2013, my team and I are expected to become more professional and efficient. I also hope this platform can help me to find resourceful investors who also respect the art of film.

Producer YANG Cheng

I am here to find partners include investors, co-production partners and distributors, to promote this film project at its budding stage. And yes, the FPP 2013 big award is also on my mind.

It is hard to set a specific group of audience for the best kind of films, as labels cannot define them. But if I must describe our target audience, I would say this film is for those who have experienced youth, who have pursued dreams yet still cherish a young soul. It is a film for those who need a reflective story and a heart-stirring experience.

Let’s join hands in creating a classic. It is unlikely for a classic film to lose money.
