我拍完了《投名状》。包尾的想不到是金城武，还要在北京再拍。大部分电影都是我包尾，这次他包尾，恭喜。不过很好啊，他马上要拍《赤壁大战》了，也是在北京。十年没合作，再在一起，感觉他比十年前成熟多了，稳重多了，而且对角色的那种执着、那种认真、分析，非常值得敬佩，值得学习。希望他在未来的工作中有更高的成就，一切顺利。

My part on THE WARLORDS is complete. I never thought Takeshi would be the one to wrap this film up in Beijing. Most of the film is complete, just a few more days in the North. On most films, I am the one that wraps up the film, but on this one, that honor belongs to Takeshi. Congratulations!

It’s great. Soon after wrapping on this film, he will join John Woo on his next film in Beijing. For Takeshi and me, it’s been 10 years since we last worked together. This time around, I feel he has matured significantly. He really knows how to attack his role and thinks about his character and the movie from many perspectives. I wish him great success in the future.
