"Sixteen years ago, I was like a street child in The Blind Road. I drifted north for three years and never came home. Fortunately, Director Li Yang gave me a chance. It is a great pleasure that Blind Tao finally meets the audience. " When the host asked director Li Yang why he chose Wang Baoqiang at that time, director Li Yang said that because of his own temperament, his life experience touched me very much, and more importantly, he worked very hard.

They also hope that domestic films will be made in addition to our own.
