Theme Forum II
Focus on China, Review and Expectation
Theme Forum III
Chinese / Global Entertainment Industry Summit, Market Convergence & Cultural Connections
In the year 2005, the 8th SIFF meets the 100 anniversary of Chinese film. Also, the industrialization of Chinese film comes to a memorable period: from 2004 to 2005, about 212 Chinese films were produced, box office reached 1.5 billion RMB, main industry income up to 3.5 billion RMB. As it’s getting closer and closer when China thoroughly enrolled in WTO, international film industry is adopting its attitude towards Chinese films from “marketing concerning” to “practical investment”. Both international film companies and Chinese film institutions are ready to make fortune at this point. What worth attention in the review of Chinese films in 2004 is that over 80% films were produced through private investment or foreign investment. Foreign capital is officially accepted by the government in producing films. What’s more exciting is that Chinese Film Promotion Draft will be officially announced in 2005, which symbolizes that the new structure of Chinese film industry with multi-investors and various development has been established.
Therefore, this year’s Jin Jue International Film Forum aims to celebrate the 100 anniversary of Chinese films on an international and open base. The second theme forum consists of three seminars, namely Strategy for the Future, Next Wave and History and Maintenance, focusing on Chinese Global investment, cooperation and film development. Hopefully, through a series discussion on Chinese film capital operation, film development and promotion, maintenance of film resource, etc, the second forum will contribute to the main theme, Cooperate with the World and Focus on China to Develop Asia.
