From a mountain boy to a world boxing champion, he encountered thousands of setbacks, but bore up bravely and persisted in his dream until he succeeded.  The film is based on his life experiences, so there is no doubt that people will be moved and stimulated.  I myself had also been moved by Peng Xiaolong’s deeds and his spirit before I decided to invest in this film and the serial films.  I am confident that the film will be successful.
