The Hunter crew
On February 16 local time, the 60th Berlin Film Festival entered its sixth day of competition. The competing films on the day included the Turkish film "Honey" and the Iranian film "Hunter". But these two films suffered from "ice and fire" treatment in Berlin. The aftermath of "Three Guns Shooting Surprise" released a few days ago has been continuous. The source of the film adaptation, the Coen brothers, said that after watching "Three Guns", they laughed continuously and expressed the hope that Zhang Yimou would remake all their works.
In the evening, the Berlin Film Festival officials also organized a "Taiwan Night" banquet, which was attended by all the Taiwanese filmmakers who came to Berlin. Among the most famous ones were director Niu Chengze and the three protagonists of the film "Monga". Due to the popularity of "Monga" in Taiwan, director Niu Chengze naturally received more attention. At the end of the banquet, Jackie Chan also came to the scene to add to the party.

"Taiwan Night" in Berlin
The "Night in Taiwan" banquet is the official promotion of Taiwanese films at the three major European film festivals, which has been maintained for many years. Compared with previous years, this year’s promotion was more casual and not as serious as the usual official promotion. The Taiwanese filmmakers attending the banquet included Niu Chengze, director of "Monga", starring Zhao Youting, Ethan Ethan and Feng Xiaoyue, director of "One Day" Hou Jiran, starring Zhang Shuhao and Xie Xinying, director Chen Junlin of "One Page Taipei" and starring Guo Caijie. In addition to them, they also included Hong Kong directors Luo Qirui and Zhang Wanting, and famous Asian film researcher Tony Raines. Due to the high box office of "Mengka" in Taiwan and the appearance of three handsome guys, the director Niu Chengze naturally gained more attention. However, Niu Chengze played a trick in the questioning session and did not say any substantive words, which is a bit regrettable.
In the final part of the banquet, Jackie Chan appeared in a Tang suit, which became the biggest highlight of the night. Chan immediately communicated with Niu Chengze after his arrival, and said that he would definitely go to the cinema to see the film. When talking about the current state of Chinese-language films and Taiwanese films, Jackie Chan expressed his grief as always for the passing of the golden age of Chinese-language films in the 1980s. He called on "Taiwan’s new filmmakers to work hard to revive Taiwanese films," and he added, "Filmmakers from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places must be united and unified to the outside world, and we may win."
