TL;DR: Need to do presentation. Recommend me the absolutely 101 chinese films

I need to do a presentation about Chinese language cinema and I'm not sure what films to choose. It's for a language course, not film studies or something like that, so it's not like I have to go super deep.

I will mention a very brief overview of the history of the industry there, and then I want to mention one director/one film from each major region. I think I got...

Hong Kong: Wong Kar Wai (In the Mood for Love/Chungking Express)
Taiwan: Edward Yang (Bright Summer Day/Yi Yi)
China: ??? Zhang Yimou and Red Sorghum is the only thing I've thought.

So any recommendations on representative films for mainland China? Or maybe another one for Taiwan? Hou Hsiao-Hsien maybe? If so what movie? (I don't know where to start with his filmography myself)

I haven't watched too much chinese films myself, what I want to do is to recommend some more-or-less contemporary directors and enjoyable movies for any casual.

I posted a joke list but here is the real one:

Instead of region, you can also divide by Cantonese or Mandarin

Eat Drink Man Woman
Infernal Affairs
Red Cliff
Hero
Raise the Red Lantern
Shaoling Soccer or Kung Fu (Older SC comedies)
Hard Boiled (Classic HK actions)
Older Jackie Chan films that are more obscure to western and younger audiences

Infernal Affairs is the best
