"We will also organize art film exhibitions on campus," said Wang, who was named the best actor at the 26th Tokyo International Film Festival. "Theater screens are still replete with commercial productions. Liao and I hope that the center will help young movie enthusiasts to know more about the charm and value of art-house movies."

Moreover, film producer and entrepreneur, Shi Jianxiang, is now producing the third installment of the popular series, "IP Man" and the war epic movie, "The Bombing". Meanwhile, he has also announced a film charity program at the festival.

On top of that, Shi invited the 90-year-old composer, Huang Zhun, who is equally a celebrated music director for many Chinese movies, to write scores for new productions.
