When "Sweetheart" was officially released, followed by Jessica's 21st birthday celebrations in May, Wang Yang immersed himself in the editing work for "District 9". He spent most of his time eating, drinking, and sleeping in the editing studio, prompting editor Lee Smith to joke, "We've been quarantined."
