Chinese film industry has undergone tremendous changes in past decades and he would like to see more Chinese films screened in his country to help locals get to know the culture and life of their neighboring country.

Meanwhile, the film star also said that he was fond of the story of Wei Xiaobao, a rags-to-riches protagonist created by martial arts novelist Louis Cha for his classic The Deer and the Cauldron.

Set in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), the protagonist Wei is not a fantastic martial artist, but rather an antihero who relies on wit and cunning to get out of trouble. Also, in his opinion, Wei boasts a magical life journey with his seven wives, a channeling role he would like to take a try, if possible.

"When I read stories like this, I always have some new ideas on film production. Just like I said before, good stories can bring us closer," said Khan.
