At the shooting scene, he speaks fluent Mandarin and can joke with reporters. He is proficient in China language and culture. Seeing a foreigner like a China person will naturally arouse the curiosity of the audience.

It is reported that Cao Cao has been in China for 20 years and has made more than 100 plays, which is a well-known group performance. Zhang Yimou really helped Cao Cao rise to the level of an artist.

In fact, compared with the Watergate Bridge in Changjin Lake, there are not so many big scenes in the sniper, or even none. But Sniper focuses on the thrilling in small scenes. What's even more unexpected is that in the movie Sniper, all the actors except Zhang Yi and Zhang Yu are newcomers to Chinese opera who are still in college.

In Zhang Yimou's view, the advantage of new actors is that they can give the audience a deeper impression and have a strong sense of substitution. Therefore, Sniper can become the most popular movie in the Spring Festival with a douban score of 7.7. Although Sniper is full of new actors, under the guidance of Zhang Yimou, every character is fleshy and plump.
