Cooperative Works: The Eighth Generation Directors are not as orthodox as the First Generation, Second Generation, or even the Fifth Generation represented by Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige. They are a passionate generation of young people with their unique ideas, breaking free from the dogma of societal eras, having their own thoughts without being swayed by others. Therefore, "truth" is their label, and "interaction" is how they gain reputation. Representative figures include Pan Guan, Tian Kai, etc., and there are many more "underground workers." Their works often surpass their fame.
