Character evaluation

Chen Zhengdao likes beautiful things and is infatuated with movies, so most of his works are gorgeous. He is very careful about the arrangement of details and the setting of plot, and the image style is gorgeous and fresh (Sina entertainment review).

Chen Zhengdao has Taiwanese Literature and art in his heart. After staying in the mainland for a long time, he is imbued with a rough atmosphere. He has a unique balance and grasp of film artistic expression and commercial creativity. As a director, Chen Zhengdao is not eager to jump into the shackles of genre films, and he doesn't care about other people's eyes. What he wants to do is try more genre films and know where the limit is (Netease Entertainment review).
