By analyzing this year's movie box office data and market performance, Wang Hongwei, vice president of the China Film Directors Association and chairman of the Green Onion Project, expressed his thoughts on current film creation and the value of the Green Onion Project to the film and television industry in a simple and easy-to-understand way. "As of the early morning of December 27, the box office in 2023 totaled 53.5 billion yuan. Among the top 100 films at the box office, there were 60 mainland films, with a total box office of 42.097 billion yuan. It is worth noting that half of the works are from directors born in the 1980s. The total box office is about 24.487 billion yuan, accounting for 60%. There are also 6 works from directors born in the 1990s, with a total box office of about 1.3865 billion yuan. The reason why I talk about this data is to illustrate the various types of projects in the past few years, including the Green Onion Project. The film support programs for young directors are all valuable and meaningful. Among the top ten young directors this year, several are born in the 1980s, and more are born in the 1990s. The work we do is to prepare for the future of the Chinese film industry and film industry. Market ready talents and projects."

"We hope that there will be more young directors and more film works that can pay more active attention to the present and create films that young people are eager to look forward to and that can update their vision."
