As the backbone of Chinese film, China Film is at the forefront of the development of the times and understands the pulse of Chinese film. Fu Ruoqing, the head of China Film Group, bears the mission and responsibility of a member of the CPPCC National Committee. He has been immersed in the film industry for many years and is committed to providing advice and suggestions on the national stage as a representative of experienced filmmakers. rich and unique perspectives, showing filmmakers’ love for Chinese culture Together enhancing the confidence and courage of China’s cultural soft power.
In Fu Ruoqing’s office are two impressive Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards, one for “The Wandering Earth” and one for “My Fathers and Me”, both representing the honors that China Film has achieved in the period new.
In the new year, China Film Group will continue to strive to release more and more popular works.
Since the year before last, China Film has successively formed an original film fund of about 50 films a year.This year is set to usher in the launch year. Including comedies and suspense films and other genres, the list of films to be shown can be described as rich and varied.
At major national moments, China Film has always played an outstanding role in the national team of the Chinese film industry by launching works with key themes. Not only that, as an industry leader, he actively unites all forces in the film industry, seeks win-win results through cooperation, and jointly promotes the continuous progress of Chinese films.
“Whether it is a first class enterprise or a small and medium enterprise, our cooperation is very close and pleasant. Only when we grow together, make the market prosperous, and diversifying the film, can the audience have a reason to return to the cinema to watch Shadow.” Fu Ruoqing said.
In Spring Festival 2023, the box office is booming across the board, boosting the confidence of the entire film industry.
China Film has produced a number of popular films for this year’s Spring Festival, including “The Wandering Earth 2”. Finally, the box office of the Spring Festival stands reached 6.7 billion, and the total box office in January broke through the 10 billion mark. “This is rare over the years.” Fu Ruoqing bluntly said that after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Chinese film market has improved and made a good start. As a filmmaker, he loves it.

In recent years, China Film Group has seized the time to strengthen its creative production force, “Creative reserves, content reserves, technical support for the production process, updates, iterations, and iterations of screening updates have built up strength for two or three years.”
Take CINITY technology as an example. Compared with the original use of other cameras to complete the corresponding shooting according to the CINITY coefficient, China Film will now use the CINITY camera directly to complete the CINITY requirements for light, pixels and color. “From end to end, we have basically opened up the industrial chain,” Fu Ruoqing said.
In terms of creation, China Film Group spent four years preparing to create “The Wandering Earth 2”, a landmark masterpiece in Chinese film history.
In Fu Ruoqing’s opinion, hard science fiction films are one of the most difficult films to make. Because science fiction films need to create a future world, the volume required is particularly large. It requires not only the story line of suspense films, but also the structure of emotional or comedy films, and it must satisfy a lot of imagination and dreamy longing.
Unlike other sci-fi films, hard sci-fi imagination cannot be taken lightly. For example, it is difficult for the audience to believe that cars in the future will become spherical, and this type of film creation must be based on a scientific basis.
Therefore, China Film particularly emphasized the credibility of the science fiction plot of “The Wandering Earth 2”, and invited many scientists to accompany them, providing professional scientific theoretical opinions and data calculation support for props or plots such as space elevators and moon launches. .
Shooting hard sci-fi is a demanding process. China Film has gradually found its own methodology after exploring from “The Wandering Earth 1” to “The Wandering Earth 2”. Fu Ruoqing said with emotion that China’s hard power has gradually improved, and the industrialization of Chinese films has created high-quality conditions for shooting hard core science fiction films.He hopes that through the exploration and practice of “The Wandering Earth 2”, the types of Chinese films will be enriched, and in the process of enrichment, the production and distribution level of Chinese films will be continuously improved.
As of press time, the cumulative box office of “The Wandering Earth 2” was more than 3.9 billion. The film is being shown abroad in batches. In addition to opening in eight regions such as North America, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom, it will also meet audiences in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Russia, the Middle East, Africa, Japan , and South Korea.
Fu Ruoqing believes that the performance of “The Wandering Earth 2” proves that Chinese films can have a certain international discourse power in science fiction films.

With the “cutting edge” attitude of Chinese films, China Film Group took the lead in co-launching Sea Wave Film Week with more than a dozen film companies such as Alibaba, Wanda, and Emperor.
Unlike other film festival initiatives that focus more on the credibility of the film, during Wave Film Week, film companies will claim, shoot, plan, and then release works that feel good, and then put them on the market. “Whether it is art or business, it must be in line with the market. We will also use this method to tap talents and increase the film reserve, so that long-term investment can reach a market condition where the investment goes higher and higher, and the filmmaking will return. value range.”
After last year’s Golden Rooster Awards Ceremony, the film channel organized award-winning filmmakers to gather for a round table interview. Every filmmaker present at that time wrote down their expectations for Chinese films. “Healthy Chinese film ecology” was Fu Ruoqing’s hope at that time.
It was mentioned again after a year, and the “head” of China Film Group explained his beautiful vision to us further.
“Film itself is a big ecology. After the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the creative direction of Chinese culture and Chinese films has become more clear, and the ecological health of the creative port should be continuously promoted.” Fu Ruoqing gave examples, he true stories, original literature, original music and dance are all sources of creation, extracting themes from it or integrating it into the expression of the film is conducive to forming a virtuous circle.
In addition, as a figure with public influence, character, behavior, conduct, and even the seriousness of creating a film should be based on a good attitude, in order to form a better ecology.
“All links should not grow impulsively, the whole industry will be balanced, and the whole ecology can be completely healthy.”
In order to tell Chinese stories well and promote the “going out” of Chinese films, Fu Ruoqing concluded that the great achievements of Chinese films cannot be separated from the strong support of China’s economy, China’s industry, and China’s hard core technology.
The spring of Chinese film conceives it as a picture of unity, tension, seriousness and vitality. What he especially hopes is that the ecology of Chinese film can be organically combined and complement each other, in order to continuously promote Chinese film. to make great strides. forward
