On the evening of the 29th, Zhang Ziyi posted a long post on Weibo, describing her feelings. "Venice's winding waterways and ancient buildings hidden in the waves always remind me of myself who just met the movie many years ago." Zhang Ziyi recalled that in 2006, she first set foot on the Venice Film Festival with the crew of "The Night Banquet" blanket. Her pure joy and raw timidity were still as clear as yesterday.

She talked about Chinese films such as "No One Less" directed by Zhang Yimou, "City of Sadness" directed by Hou Hsiao-hsien, "Three Gorges" directed by Jia Zhangke, and "Killed a Sheep" directed by Wanma Caidan in recent years. It shines brilliantly in Venice, showing the world the profound heritage and blazing light of Chinese culture.
