Who was the first China director to win an Oscar?

The Wedding Banquet made Ang Lee nominated for the best foreign language film at the Oscar for the first time, which was the first time that director Ang Lee appeared on the Oscar stage. Ang Lee, who was involved in homosexuality for the first time, calmly implanted this sensitive theme into the traditional family ethics in China. Foreigners look at the harmony and reconciliation between the protagonists, while China people look at the contradiction between China's traditional values and sensitive love. No wonder, after the film was staged, Americans said it was telling the story of the United States, while China said it was telling the story of China. However, at the beginning of this Oscar campaign, "The Wedding Banquet" failed to gain recognition.
