2022-11-23

At China Movie Metropolis

There are not only theatrical blockbusters, drama masterpieces and popular variety shows, 

but also many top supporting and co-production companies in the industry.

Filmmakers have chosen the China Movie Metropolis 

"Beijing is like a business trip, but Qingdao is like a homecoming"

To the China Movie Metropolis, they say, "The hardware here is first-class."

Wang Hong, a famous producer, has completed projects such as The Great Wall, Pacific Rim: Thunder Again, The Wandering Earth, The Magic of the Sky, The Sky Breaking, 731 and The Wandering Earth 2 at China Movie Metropolis.


"Before shooting, we visited some shooting bases in Beijing and other places, but we finally chose China Movie Metropolis because of its first-class facilities and production cost subsidies," she said. Ninety-nine percent of 'The Wandering Earth' was shot here."

"I was in Qingdao," said Andy Lau, executive producer and special star of "Operation Moscow." "I was really happy to see the scenes, the arrangement of everyone, the dedication of the director and the performance of the actors."

The "Sing Me to You" live online concert held on the night of September 3 this year was also live broadcast from Qingdao Oriental Film Metropolis Studio, which attracted more than 400 million viewers online.

Apart from a few overseas scenes, more than 90 percent of the film's scenes were completed in Qingdao, Guo Fan, director of The Wandering Earth 2, told the media.

He said he would return to the China Movie Metropolis after The Wandering Earth in 2017. Since I am from Shandong Province, I came to the movie metropolis to make a movie just like returning home.

Rather than hardware, he said, he values "software" support, which refers to the management mode of the park, as well as the support and services that can be provided to the crew. He specifically mentioned the active coordination of Qingdao Municipal Government, West Coast New Area and industrial Park to allow the Wandering Earth 2 to be shot in Qingdao Liuting International Airport. In addition, the virtual film platform also provides an important support for the efficient work of the crew. Through the preview, the script visualization is realized, which enables the crew to clearly know what to shoot and how to shoot, solves the problem of shooting multiple scenes at the same time, and improves the shooting efficiency.

From The Assassination of the Novelist to the Moon Alone, and then to the Journey Home, Li Miao, the art director, has devoted himself to the creation of China Movie Metropolis in the past four years. With his unimaginative imagination, he has transformed the studio of China Movie Metropolis into a variety of magnificent scenes.

China Movie Metropolis has an integral supporting set -- studio, location and processing workshop. Meanwhile, the industrial park is a relatively closed environment, which is more convenient for the whole shooting process, reduces the transfer, and has stronger confidentiality. In the past, it took nearly a year to shoot outside. There was a feeling of drifting, and the heart often suffered. When it came time to get married and have children, we should have a choice.

The China Movie Metropolis is different. It's just like going to work. You can ride a bike or walk to the set from the neighborhood next door, and it feels like home.

Wang Shuo, the art director of "The Killer is not very calm", said: compared with other cities, in Qingdao, especially in the West Coast, the China Movie Metropolis, because of the rich market of film and television building materials, some temporary urgently needed goods can be easily realized. This kind of mobility and convenience seems to be unimpressive, but in fact it is very rare.

In addition, the supporting facilities around the China Movie Metropolis, such as shopping malls, hospitals, hotels and scenic spots, have brought great convenience to my work and life for half a year. Through this shooting and production, I became more and more fond of Qingdao, and I really hope to develop in Qingdao in the future.
