During their trip to Guangzhou, the group visited some of Guangzhou's iconic scenic spots, including the Canton Tower and Guangzhou Library. They were also invited to record their impressions and expectations for Guangzhou at a special post office in Huacheng Square.
"A good movie needs to have a good story, an interesting plot and great settings, and that's why Gotham City in the Batman movies is now a household name," said Michael Uslan. "For Guangzhou, the city must be in an interesting story, and only by creating works based on the city's distinctive features can filmmakers offer artistic vitality to their works and the city."
Edwards said that young filmmakers in China are ambitious and have many new ideas. He and his team are thinking about cooperating with them and making a change in the movie industry in the following five to 10 years.
