Character evaluation

Lu Ban is a film artist with great personality charm, which is also related to his comedy creation. He always looks at the surrounding environment in a humorous and humorous way, which is often incompatible with the rigid bureaucratic system, and even causes interpersonal conflicts with the power class. He is also a rare multi-faceted actor in the film business among his contemporaries. He can win in most fields of film, which makes him have more artistic thinking and ideological pursuit than the bureaucratic system can tolerate. However, his relatively simple thinking made him unable to cope with the bureaucratic system. The reason why his works are full of vitality is that he melts thought and life into art, so there will be real innovation of art form. Only this innovative form can accommodate his thoughts (review of contemporary film).
