TIM YIP:
Thank you very much. This the first time in the Oscar -- a little bit nervous. First of all, I have to thanks for my parents, because they are not there. I hope that they can listen to me somewhere, here, because they are already gone. And I want to thanks my family to support what I am working on. And especially thanks for Ang Lee.
