From the current situation, the film industry will also have a recovery period after the epidemic." China Film Critics Association will Chang Rao Shuguang said that the impact of the epidemic on the entire film industry is all-round. Cinemas are under the greatest pressure, and production companies and publicity companies are also facing considerable pressure to survive.

The box office of the Spring Festival stalls in 2019 is about 7 billion yuan. Since the Spring Festival stalls have been closed in 2020, the loss of the film market can be seen. On
TV, all crews have suspended filming, and the production of Internet TV series and Internet dramas has also been affected. Experts believe that the production of film and television dramas in 2020 will decrease.
Since February 6, Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Yunnan and other major film and television industry provinces and municipalities have successively issued many documents and notices related to small and medium-sized enterprises and the film industry to support the film industry in terms of subsidies and reductions. In order to reduce the burden on enterprises and ease the pressure, film and television companies generally believe that this is "giving money to the industry." However, Zhang Xinsheng hopes that relevant departments can introduce more clear and targeted support measures, such as providing more operable guidance on the issue of studio rentals, and granting special financial subsidies to theaters.
Precipitation and tempering "internal strength"

He said that creators and film critics should use this time to practice their internal skills and improve their artistic creativity and imagination. In fact, this is a good opportunity.

The foundation of Chinese film is still deep, there is a lot of room for development, and there is also a lot of room for maneuver. "A sand will come and go, and a wave will be destroyed and reborn.
