Trivia

At the initial announcement of the film, GuoLi Zhang went to the producers, offering to perform the role of Chiang Kai-Shek, for FREE. Shortly after, all the top film stars of China did the same thing, and offered to play roles for only a few seconds on screen, free of charge. Eventually, it was concluded by fans that Jian Guo Da Ye was a measure of the success or level of profession of film stars in China.
