On August 8th, 2008, people all over the world enjoyed a wonderful performance that was directed by Zhang Yimou at the opening ceremony (典礼) of the Beijing Olympic Games. The heart of Zhang’s Olympic opening ceremony was harmony (和谐) and peace. This is what he has been showing in his films.
Zhang’s first job was a farm worker. To get his first camera, he worked hard for several months at the age of 25.

Luckily, he showed them a number of his photo works, and this helped Zhang’s dream to come true.
For the past twenty years, he has made the world interested in Chinese films: Red Sorghum (1987), Ju Dou(1990) and Raise the Red Lantern (1991). The colour red was widely used in these films. Ju Dou was the first Chinese film to be nominated (提名) for an Academy Award; Raise the Red Lantern was the second.
Zhang also made the actress, Gong Li, famous, and she played lead roles(主角) in many of his films. Westerners knew more about Zhang from his action movies, such as Hero(2002), House of Flying Daggers(2004) and Curse of the Golden Flower(2006).

My first time to stay for the night at a friend’s home was when I was six years old. We were in the same school and we were best friends, too.

(56)________________ Usually, she would say, "You can’t go to your friend’s home, it is dangerous!". But that day, she agreed.
