Faced with the fierce Spring Festival file, Chen Sicheng said, “We were the first to set the file, and we decided to see you two years later in "Detective Chinatown 2".

The Spring Festival file is like a gamble, you may win more, or you may lose more.”

We will never black out each other."
In addition, Chen Kexin also talked about the origin of "Chinese Women's Volleyball": because he has been a director for too many years, he has always wanted to find something new, challenge his weaknesses, and make himself more insecure. . I have photographed various genres in the past, and in recent years I have begun to photograph realistic subjects, and I find it particularly handy. After filming "Dear", I wondered what other subject matter could be taken a step further, and found out that sports subject matter had not been filmed before, so I filmed "Li Na". "
Chen Kexin said, "Chinese Women's Volleyball" saw the women's volleyball match during the preparation process. At that time, while writing the script, watching the women's volleyball match. When you see everyone's reaction to the women's volleyball team, it has gone far beyond the sports itself, and the whole Society, national expectations and self-confidence are all related. "I also remembered that when I was young, I also had a relationship with the women's volleyball team. When I was in middle school, Lang Ping went abroad for the first time to play games. It should be the first time the Chinese team returned to the Asian Games, right? I was shocked at the time, that thing is worth taking. So I think this subject matter is very interesting. I started to make information, do interviews, and find many interesting stories. "
