Lan Naicai, director, photographer, screenwriter and travel photographer. 1953 was born in Hong Kong. At first, he was just a coolie, then he was promoted to be a photography assistant, and later he became one of the photographers, nicknamed "Mouse". He worked with famous directors such as Zhong Sun, Chu Yuan and Zhong Wang, and served as a photographer for seven years, which made him the best photographer in the film industry. I studied photography under the famous Japanese photographer Tadashi Nishimoto (also known as Helanshan). Bernard Shaw introduced him as a director, and Tsui Hark and Sammo Hung also talked about him, but they all declined. Before Li Xiuxian started filming one-way band, he promised to direct the film with him. The two are about the same age, and they hit it off very well. People in the film industry even call it "Shuanglong going out to sea". Xiao took photos with Hu Jinquan, Li Hanxiang and other great directors. He uses the sound, light, electricity and modern special photography in science fiction films to form a novel directing effect, which is unique in Hong Kong film industry. His major works include Outward of Castle, Legend of Culvert, Legend of Wesley, Ghost Hunting, Peacock King, Asura, One Eyebrow at a Taoist, King Smart and so on. Among them, Culvert won the best editing in the 27th Asia-Pacific Film Festival, Legend and Wesley were shown at Tokyo International Fantasy Film Festival, and Ghost Hunting and Sleepless Night were shown at Hong Kong Fantasy Film Festival.

Lan Naicai is a mysterious figure in the Hong Kong film industry. Because he quit the film circle early, there is little accurate information about him on the Internet. I only know that he 1953 was born in Hong Kong, studied in Japan and was born as a photographer. Around the 1990s, he and the famous filmmaker Cai Lan co-founded the Mainland Film Company and directed a series of so-called cult films with distinctive styles. Among them, Hong Kong San's works are not many, only two, but they are all landmark works in the history of Hong Kong San. One is the masterpiece of Hong Kong's violent cool film in the last century, King of the Elves, which is talked about by many Hong Kong fans and is also his last film.

Lan Naicai stopped directing after filming King Smart on 1992. According to the latest information on the Internet, Lan Naicai is not so-called "missing" or "killed". He probably immigrated to the United States with his family in the 1990s.

From 2008 to 2009, Lan Naicai worked as a volunteer in an orphanage in northern Guangdong. Now she is the executive director of Xiong Jian Love Society in China Hope Project Area, and participates in poverty alleviation work in remote areas of China.

Lan Naicai is now a travel photographer, taking photos when traveling around the world. In 2007, in cooperation with Chen Xiuling, a writer and amateur essayist of Hong Kong Ta Kung Pao, he published a collection of tourism essays, Croatian Winter Gone and Spring Came.
