Take a Glance at the Exhibition: Join Us in Cinematic Spree
After announcing the first batch of exhibitors, the Exhibition of the Beijing Film Market has received many phone calls, asking questions like:
“Since I missed registration, do I still have a chance to visit the Exhibition?”
Today, we are officially announcing that the Exhibition will resume on-site ticket buying.
As long as you are a practitioner in the film and television industry, you can buy a ticket to the Exhibition at the Registration Center.

The Exhibition registration closed on March 24, 2024, and over 130 exhibitors signed up for it. These exhibitors offer a wide range of services, such as promotion, marketing, production, and other film and television related services, among which 74.9% are engaged in more than one business. They expand diverse areas and seek all-round development, comprehensive and considerate, like the Exhibition.
As the most thoughtful film festival, we certainly understand your concerns, “What can I get here? Is it cost-effective?”, “What cooperation needs will exhibitors bring this year? Is it worth visiting?”. These questions are also the focus of the Exhibition.

We have every confidence in the potential of low and medium-budget films.
Perhaps you still remember Crazy Stone, which hit cinemas in 2006. With a production cost of 3.5 million yuan, the film has earned 23.5 million yuan at the box office, igniting a craze for low and medium-budget films in China. “Amid the downturn of global economic recovery and film creation, we should encourage low and medium-budget commercial films,” executive producer Wang Hongwei said at the forum themed “The Development Status and Outlet of Chinese Low- and Mid-Budget Arthouse Films” during the 13th BJIFF.
Forum on “The Development Status and Outlet of Chinese Low- and Mid-Budget Arthouse Films”
The Exhibition aims to provide such low and medium-budget films and production companies with a chance to face the market, and help them overcome difficulties in financing, promotion, distribution and other links. Don't be afraid. At the Exhibition, you can say Hi to creativity boldly. We invited some exhibitors of this year's Exhibition to have a chat. This time, it’s your turn to “interview” companies.

Why do they attend the Exhibition?
Q: As old friends of the BJIFF Exhibition, what keeps them coming here?
We are a startup company specializing in the design and production of film materials. Tiny Time is the first project we won at the Exhibition, and at that time we reached a preliminary agreement on-site. Since then, I got to know almost all producers and distributors across the country at the Exhibition, facilitating the company to grow stronger. During the Spring Festival period this year, we served a few movies, such as YOLO, Pegasus 2, Boonie Bears: Time Twist, etc. I appreciate the BJIFF very much, so for projects that we can enter into preliminary cooperation at the Exhibition, we plan to give some price preferences and media resources.

At the BJIFF, cooperation opportunities are everywhere, but it's just a matter of time, coming early or late.
As long as you come, you can also harvest a miraculous story from 0 to 100.

As the only large-scale film and television festival in China in the first half of this year, the BJIFF is the best chance for us to develop clients. During the BJIFF every year, we will unveil the list of films in the coming year, and negotiate with intended copyright buyers at the exhibition. This year, we will continue to concentrate on the promotion and distribution of theatrical films, and place particular emphasis on the development of overseas distribution business. We have successfully delivered a few romance films and two animated films to various airlines, and even to Europe, Southeast Asia and other regions. Meanwhile, we also look forward to more diversified cooperation with more video platforms and producers.

Let’s just wait a little longer for more movies.

Q: Hainan Happy Time Film Co., Ltd., co-initiated by famous actor Shen Teng and young entrepreneur Wang Chen, will attend the Exhibition for the first time this year, and what cooperation needs do they bring?
We’re here to meet people we don’t know! First of all, we wish to recommend two new films directed by our company's young directors, Enough Is Enough and Reversed Destiny, and hope to know copyright trading companies in Japan, South Korea and other regions in Southeast Asia, thus exploring more adaptable projects. Besides, we would like to meet all kinds of new directors and screenwriters. It doesn’t matter if they don’t have a feature-length film, as we will set up studios for signed directors and help them grow. (Can creators send a resume to your company at the Exhibition?) Of course they can. Applicants with excellent content will enter the next evaluation stage.
