Pathetic but true: the NT $ 100 million that the ROC government spends on film grants every year represents only a tiny fraction of what it took to make The Titanic (US $ 200 million), and only one-eighth of the production budget for the Hong Kong film Ashes of Time (US $ 25 million).
說來可憐，台灣一年上億元電影輔導金，只是西片《鐵達尼號》（二億美金）製作費的六十分之一、港片《東邪西毒》（二千五百萬美金）的八分之一。
