Character evaluation
Yang Lei belongs to the kind of person who "if God gives him a bamboo pole, he can move the earth." he thinks that the so-called carelessness in making films and TV plays is to create high-quality works with heart, show sincerity and upgrade the visual perception of films and TV plays. The so-called love is to create the audience's favorite characters and emotions. From Yang Lei's first work "a day of two beggars on the subway" to "red" and then to "Kyushu sky city", his "original heart" is sincerity. (Tencent Entertainment review)
Director Yang Lei's works are well-known for their quality and directing ability, and he is also rated as a "conscience" director who draws his attention back from European and American dramas to national dramas by teenagers. Because he often has love and interaction with netizens in private, he is affectionately called "brother Lei". (Netease Entertainment review)
