uses the Hundred Flowers Award as a medium to use film and television works to bring more new scenes to urban consumption. On August 4, the 37th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Awards Science Fiction Forum and Chengdu Film Industry Special Promotion Conference were held.
At the promotion meeting, the country's first film and television enterprise alliance guidance fund "1958 No. 1 Film and Television Fund" was officially launched. This fund was initiated and established by E Film Group and jointly established with many state-owned film and television cultural enterprises and investment institutions.
The successful establishment of this fund marks that the construction of a cross-provincial regional linkage system for the film and television cultural industry and the establishment of a state-owned film fund explored by E Film Group have won high recognition from all walks of life. At the same time, it has successfully attracted many cross-provincial investors for the revitalization of Sichuan's film and television industry. Film and television investment institutions have landed in Sichuan, injecting new capital power and national complementary resources into the high-quality development of Chinese films.
Subsequently, Chengdu Film and Television Industry Development Fund officially released to provide financial support for the film and television industry, guide social capital investment, and promote innovation and upgrading of the film and television industry. The fund was jointly established by the Chengdu Municipal Government and Chinese Culture, a leading company in the domestic film and television industry, aiming to promote the further prosperity and development of Chengdu's film and television industry through capital power.
Chengdu is rich in film and television resources, including natural landscapes such as snow-capped mountains, lakes, and grasslands, as well as urban scenes such as modern cities, characteristic neighborhoods, and parks, attracting a large number of film crews to film and produce film and television projects. At present, industrial clusters such as Chengdu Film and Television City and Emei Digital Imaging Cultural and Creative Industrial Park have been built. As a new first-tier city, Chengdu has a huge film and television consumer market and potential development space. During this year's Spring Festival, Chengdu's movie box office revenue reached 153 million yuan, ranking fourth in the country, with more than 3.3 million moviegoers. In the first half of this year, Chengdu had nearly 16 million moviegoers, ranking third in the country.
Chengdu has gradually developed into an important gathering place for the film and television industry in the western region. Chengdu has the largest single studio in Asia, gathering more than 1,300 film and television companies. There are more than 100,000 employees in the film and television industry, and 220,000 students studying film and television majors. Chengdu has a total of 318 theaters with more than 2,100 screens, ranking second in the country in terms of number.
By establishing a film and television industry development fund, we can attract more high-quality film and television industry companies and projects to settle in Chengdu, promote the formation of the agglomeration effect of Chengdu's film and television industry, and achieve resource sharing and complementary advantages.
In the context of globalization and internationalization, Chengdu is actively integrating into the development trend of the international film and television industry and striving to build a film and television cultural center with international influence. The establishment of the Chengdu Film and Television Industry Fund, with its complete infrastructure and complete industrial ecology, will help introduce foreign advanced film and television production technology and management experience, enhance the international competitiveness of Chengdu's film and television industry, and is expected to drive cultural creativity such as movies, animation, and music. The industry achieved new breakthroughs.
