Ang Lee's "Life of Pi" raked in more than 90 million dollars in the Chinese mainland,the first time a foreign movie has grossed more in China than in North America. (CNTV)

Wuershan, Director of "Painted Skin: Resurrection", said, "It tells a magic legend based on Chinese literature. It fills a gap for that genre in the market. Nowadays, many big-time directors have exploited 3D technology. I think it'll be the way of future, so I'll stick to it. We are sort of crossing the river by feeling for the stones."

Compared to Hollywood's well-developed film industry that has a century of history, Chinese film-making has only taken off within the past decade.

Wuershan, said, "Compared to Hollywood, we have holes in every phase of making a commercial film. We could only hope that we will grow step by step. Good and steady box-office returns are a crucial support."
