We face adversity and challenges with unlimited creativity and flexible mind and never give up. China, director of the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office, said that this "spirit of China and Hong Kong" can best be reflected in the film industry and film talents in mainland China and Hong Kong. It is a long process for China and Hong Kong filmmakers to enter the international market from the early China and Hong Kong films made entirely for local audiences.

Today, China is one of the major film production centers in the world and also a regional center for film production services.
