The 26th Taipei Film Awards was held, where 'The Old Fox' won Best Drama Feature. Actor Chen Muyi expressed dissatisfaction with director Xiao Yaquan for not acknowledging the actors during his acceptance speeches. The film won multiple awards, including Best Director and Best Screenplay, making Xiao the big winner, but Chen criticized the lack of recognition for the actors. Despite winning Best Supporting Actor at the Golden Horse Awards with 'The Old Fox,' he was not even nominated at this year's Taipei Film Festival, with the festival director citing minimal screen time and alleged political bias as reasons. Chen Muyi's public statements and criticisms towards the director have sparked controversy in the Taiwanese film industry.
