Oh, thank you. Thank you, Academy, for this special recognition for non-English movies. My thanks to my fellow producers Hsu Li Kong, Bill Kong, and to an enormously talented cast and crew who sacrificed so much. To James Schamus, David Linde, Ted Hope and everyone at Good Machine. And to Barbara Robinson at Columbia Asia and Gareth Wigan at Sony. And to Tom Bernard, Michael Barker and Marcie Bloom at Sony Classic[s] for their masterpiece job. And finally, to my friends and family in Taiwan, to my collaborators in Hong Kong and everyone, people in China who help us so much in making this movie. This is a great honor. Thank you.
