00:00 Have you ever thought about entering the film industry?
00:04 I studied advertising design.
00:05 I'm the same.
00:06 Oh, really?
00:07 Okay, cool.
00:08 We'll sit here.
00:10 When I was a student, I liked music and movies.
00:14 When I got into the entertainment industry,
00:16 I wanted to be a MTV director.
00:19 I like watching MTV.
00:20 But I forgot about it after a while.
00:24 I became an agent and did different things.
00:28 I wanted to learn TV production in 2008.
00:33 I didn't expect to be a film director.
00:37 I believe you met many people.
00:38 When I was a director, I was afraid of being laughed at.
00:42 People said, "Look at that shoddy director."
00:44 There are many people like that in the film industry.
00:46 They think they can be a director after a few steps.
00:47 I was afraid of being laughed at.
00:48 But I thought, "I'm still young.
00:51 I can do anything.
00:52 I'll be responsible if I do something wrong."
00:55 I was worried that I would be timid as I grew older.
00:58 I thought I wouldn't have much time to lose.
01:03 I thought I had to work harder than before.
01:06 I used to work with 100% of my strength.
01:09 Now I'm working with 150% of my strength.
01:11 You met some homeless people during the shoot.
01:15 You would buy them food at a convenience store.
01:18 When I was shooting "Fu Du",
01:20 I saw a homeless man lying on the bed without shoes.
01:24 I was easily moved.
01:25 I cried when I saw a cat feeding a homeless man.
01:28 I bought him bread and slippers.
01:30 I put them next to him.
01:32 I felt sorry for him because he didn't have shoes.
01:36 I thought I could buy him a pair of shoes.
01:37 I thought it was a good idea.
01:39 How do you deal with rationality and emotional issues
01:43 when you're in business?
01:45 I don't feel guilty about it.
01:48 One of my relatives said,
01:50 "Why do you eat so much?
01:52 I said, "I'm eating less and losing more."
01:53 I'm eating less and losing more.
01:55 That's why I'm so thin.
01:57 Health is the most important thing.
01:58 I run my company in a family way.
02:01 I treat every employee as my brother or sister.
02:03 I don't tell people outside that they're my employees.
02:06 I tell them they're my colleagues.
02:07 I think it's fate that we can work together.
02:09 I hope everyone can think for themselves.
02:11 When a company gives you money,
02:14 I won't tell you what your pay should be.
02:15 I won't tell you what the formula is.
02:17 If you're just a very self-centered employee
02:21 and you have to work like this,
02:23 I don't mind.
02:24 As long as you do your job well.
