About the Book
To write about a film industry that adds 10 screens per day and
expands by an average of 30 percent in box- office revenue annually
is like trying to capture lightning in a bottle. Everything changes
so fast that whatever finds its way into a book risks being
outdated when the book is printed.
This book is an attempt to chronicle the amazing rise of Chinese
cinema since 2002 that has propelled what''s arguably the world''s
fastest growing film industry -- how it awoke from a decade-long
hiatus; how it incorporated film industries from Hong Kong and
Taiwan; how it deals with growing competition from Hollywood; and
what roadblocks send it swerving as it hurtles toward modernization
andglobalization.
The book highlights major industry players, dynamics and
conflicts; types of movies and their places in the business;and
fascinating tidbits that connect to the past and point to the
future. It is a perfect primer for anyone interested in China''s
film industry or with a desire for a deeper appreciation of
Chinese-language movies.
This book is based on the numerous interviews and reports Raymond
Zhou has conducted in his capacity as the most influential Chinese
film critic over more than a decade.It also draws extensively from
his vast experience and knowledge as a cinema expert, for which he
is constantly in demand by media, film festivals and other
events.
