The director Wong Kar Wai directed film THE GRANDMASTER (YUT DOI JUNG SI) did not with the Best Costume or the Best Cinematography Oscar, but he was not disappointed. Wong Kar Wai said, "It doesn't matter because it's very hard. GRAVITY For example had several thousand people on the production, and they and labor unions too. Each person was connected, but I feel being nominated was already not easy."

Two nights ago around 10:30, Wong Kar Wai returned to Hong Kong and prepared to attend the Hong Kong Film Directors Guild anniversary banquet. How did the Oscar atmosphere feel? He said, "Their organizations are very strict, the production is great and very united. (Did the Hong Kong Film Award have anything to learn?) Oscar is a very large scale show, with over 1 billion viewers worldwide. They have a lot of resources and enormous in scale, but the Hong Kong Film Award is already very well done." He also revealed that earlier he met with Gong Li. Would they work together again? He said, "We definitely will have a chance."
