The world's largest CINITY screen, currently installed at the China Science and Technology Museum, is 29 meters wide and 16 meters tall. A regular screen is usually between 6 and 10 meters tall.

Fu says that he believes that the innovation and development of cinematic technology will enhance the advancement of the Chinese film industry and elevate the quality of film production.

In the past decade, the China Film Group Corporation has produced over 200 movies, with total box-office revenues exceeding 100 billion yuan ($13.8 billion).

He says that the corporation is currently working on nearly 90 projects that span a wide range of genres and themes.

One of the most anticipated releases is the sequel to Chen Kaige's The Volunteers: To the War, an epic about the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea (1950-53).

In addition, Until We Find You, a film that celebrates the 25th anniversary of Macao's return to the motherland, is now in production and is scheduled for domestic release in December.

The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting, a film adapted from a poetic dance visualization of Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127) artist Wang Ximeng's 12-meter scroll painting Qianli Jiangshan Tu (A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains), is entering post-production, and is scheduled for release in the near future.

In an effort to nurture new talent, the China Film Group Corporation has started a project to invest 1 billion yuan in 30 to 50 films by young filmmakers. Currently, 15 scripts have been selected from a pool of around 300 candidates.

"In recent years, the Chinese film industry has made remarkable strides, breaking box-office records and demonstrating momentum in areas like technological innovation and global influence," says Fu.

He says that the country, which has ambitions of becoming a cinematic powerhouse by 2035, should concentrate on more engaging narratives while leveraging new technology.
