00:00This time, Bingbing is the one who found the director.

00:04Yes.

00:05I asked my colleague,

00:07there is a very good director in Malaysia.

00:10His name is Zhang Jianan, do you know him?

00:12When I met him, I thought he was a very introverted person.

00:15He is definitely the type of director Bingbing admires.

00:20The type of man.

00:21The type of man.

00:30Hello, Malaysian media friends.

00:54Hello everyone, I am Bingbing.

00:55I didn't expect the three of us to wear the same color of earth.

00:59So big.

01:00Really, really.

01:01Really, it's so taciturn.

01:02When I entered the door, I was like,

01:04wow, how can it match this color so well?

01:07Yes.

01:08It's like the color of this movie.

01:09I was at the Singapore Film Festival,

01:11and then I came to Malaysia for some work.

01:13Then I asked my colleague,

01:15there is a very good director in Malaysia.

01:17Yes.

01:18His name is Zhang Jianan, do you know him?

01:20My colleague said,

01:21I can contact him.

01:24That's how we met.

01:25Then we chatted.

01:26I just think his movie is very good.

01:28When I arrived in Malaysia,

01:29I think I want to meet this person.

01:32What is he like?

01:33I was so curious.

01:35But we didn't talk about anything related to movies.

01:37Then there was such a fate.

01:39I think when I met him at the time,

01:41I think he is a very introverted person.

01:45A book with a lot of pages.

01:47But it's not very...

01:49Because there are a lot of people,

01:50he has read a lot of books,

01:51he wants to express himself.

01:52He wants to express his feelings.

01:56But he is not willing to...

02:00He is not very open.

02:01Yes.

02:02He is a book.

02:03He can put the book in his pocket.

02:05When you get more and more familiar with him,

02:08you will get his enthusiasm.

02:11So he is definitely the type of director Bingbing appreciates.

02:16The type of man.

02:17The type of man.

02:19I have seen the movie,

02:21and I want to talk to him about the characters in the movie and the story.

02:26Are you embarrassed?

02:28Actually, I was a little embarrassed to see you that day.

02:33Because we knew later.

02:35Because he came to Malaysia and only stayed for three days.

02:39He has three tasks.

02:41I only knew three tasks at that time.

02:43The first task was to meet Rohor Sudan.

02:47We met Rohor Sudan at that time.

02:49The second task was to meet the king, Liu Lian.

02:52The third task is to meet director Bingbing, right?

02:56Yes.

02:57Absolutely.

02:58The story is like that.
