Huang Jianxin is the current chair of the Directors' Guild of China.

In 1986, Huang's directorial debut Black Cannon Incident captured the attention of the entire film world. Subsequent works such as Stand Up, Don't Bend Over (1992), Back to Back, Face to Face (1994), Surveillance (1997), Marriage Certificate (2001) and Gimme Kudos (2004) cemented his reputation as one to watch for at many prestigious international film festivals.
