Wong Kar-wai, chairman of the jury, spoke.
As the chairman of the jury, Wong Kar-wai made the last speech and interpreted the judging criteria of the main competition unit in the same romantic way as his film language: "My personal experience is that a good film, regardless of its theme and length, must have one thing in common, that is, the concentration and persistence of its creators. I had breakfast in the store two days ago. After drinking soybean milk, I saw two lines printed on the bottom of the bowl: I am willing to grind for you all my life. Although we all know that grinding beans and making movies are two different things, the spirit and temperament are connected. I believe that only through purity can an excellent work be achieved, so this year we will take a fancy to this purity of film art. Eight years is very young for a film festival. As a part of this year, we are happy to participate in its growth and move forward with it. "
