Zhang Yimou is called a Buddhist because he directed the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games. At that time, the stunning opening ceremony made friends and guests from all over the world appreciate China's unique beauty and great country image. Zhang Yimou has also won more people's love and praise. Therefore, since then, such large-scale national activities are generally planned and presided over by teachers in the Buddhist community, so many people call it Zhang Yimou Buddhism.
