Ang Lee won the Academy Award for Best Director for "Life of Pi" in February. Lee's direction of the film, which was nominated for a total of 11 categories, was lauded by critics for his ability to bring the complex book to life.
Lee, 59, won a Best Director Oscar for "Brokeback Mountain" in 2006. His film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" also won the award for Best Foreign Language Film in 2001. The Taiwan native was the first person of Asian descent to win an Oscar for Best Director.
Lee was always seen as the pride of the Chinese and the Oscar-winning director of smash hit "Pi" added more luster to his personal resume as well as inspired Chinese filmmakers in 2013.
