Li Sizhen has created many different types of movies, TV series and even animation, covering a wide range of topics such as gangsters, youth, love, ethics, martial arts, science fiction, black humor, and so on. He is an all-round screenwriter. In an interview, Mr. Li said that all creation requires the intervention of emotional lines, but he also tries to avoid heavy preaching. "Whether it is a martial arts movie, a comedy, or a horror movie, there is one thing you must write about is emotion, but the proportion of each person’s emotional line is how much. So every screenwriter needs to know how to write about emotion, the difference is only in the proportion of emotion."
