Feng Junhao said in the introduction: “In 2020, this number itself belongs to science fiction movies. I don’t want to convene these 20 directors to discuss the future of movies. I just want to talk about the movies they have created. But in the end, this is inevitably related to the future of the movie. Because when we watch Wong Kar-wai's second movie "A Fei's True Story", we may have already imagined "In the Mood for Love" in our minds. When we watch the Coen Brothers At the time of "Blood Maze" in 1985, we may have experienced the "Old Nowhere" 20 years later. "
What should the movies of the next ten years look like? He replied: "The irresistible visual effects in "Midsummer Nightmare"; the dark ocean meets the quiet gaze in "Night and Day"; the beautiful "Lighthouse" glows black and white on the other side of the sea; in Yin Jiaen's movie Children’s endless nagging; "Happy Like Lazaro" is an amazing movie miracle."
