The movie named My P.E. Teacher was released on Jan 7. The film was shot in Haizhu and was directed by Zhou Yong, starring Sun Jialin and Wei Lu along with more than 20 veteran actors.

The film tells the story of a new physical education teacher named Liu Haochen, from Guangzhou Nanwu Middle School, who insisted on defending the rights of senior high school students to take physical education classes while other teachers frequently took over them. Through his efforts, senior high school students who originally liked sports got a boost of motivation before taking their college entrance examinations.

Guangzhou Nanwu Middle School, where the movie was filmed, was established in March 1905. It is a century-old school in Guangzhou and has cultivated outstanding talents such as Xie Xingfang and Zhang Jiewen. Nearly 5,000 students from the school participated in this movie.

"Promoting a city through a film is now more and more accepted by the audience. This film attaches great importance to the creation of the script. Our crew held 12 script seminars and revised the script 16 times," said the director.
