General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out, “Culture is the soul of a country and a nation. Culture rejuvenates the country and the nation is strong. Without a high degree of cultural confidence, without cultural prosperity, there will be no great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We must adhere to a society with Chinese characteristics. The development path of socialist culture will stimulate the creative and creative vitality of the entire nation’s culture and build a socialist cultural power."

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Central Committee of the Party has attached great importance to cultural construction and put cultural construction in a very important position. In particular, cultural self-confidence, road self-confidence, theoretical self-confidence, and system self-confidence are listed as the "four self-confidence" of socialism with Chinese characteristics. After entering the new stage of development, higher requirements will be put forward on cultural construction, and the role of culture will be further highlighted.

Singing the main theme and promoting positive energy has always been an important mission of Chinese films. Chinese movies have a glorious tradition of using grand narratives to remember history and eulogize the times. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, focusing on the overall situation and important time points of the work of the party and the country, the main theme films have opened up a new level of creativity.

At present, Chinese movies are forming a benign ecological pattern of diversification, variety, and genre with equal emphasis on large and small. In the deep integration of the main theme and genre movies, Chinese stories are told in world languages, and "new world landscapes" are created in Chinese stories.
