Shanghai is the birthplace of Chinese cinema. As China's earliest open treaty port and the most prosperous city for industry and commerce, Shanghai provides fertile soil for the development of films. In 1896, China's first screening of "Western Cinema" was held in Shanghai; In 1913, China's first short feature film was produced in Shanghai; In 1921, China's first formal feature film was born in Shanghai. Since then, film has developed rapidly in Shanghai, and gradually formed the realist tradition and national style of Chinese films.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, in just ten years, Shanghai Film Studio, Shanghai Science and Education Film Studio, Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio and Shanghai Film Translation Factory were established one after another. Shanghai has become an important base and "half of the country" for Chinese national films.
Since the 80s of the last century, Shanghai films have undergone the baptism of the tide of market economy and gradually embarked on the development path of collectivization and industrialization. In recent years, after several structural adjustments, the newly established Shanghai Film Group has integrated and concentrated the superior resources of Shanghai film planning, production, distribution and other aspects, and is working towards the goal of establishing a modern enterprise group with mixed ownership. It is believed that in the near future, Shanghai film will surely become a symbol of Shanghai's cultural industry and one of the important bases for Chinese film production at home and abroad.
Opening-up promotes reform, and cooperation promotes development. Shanghai Film (Group) Co., Ltd. warmly welcomes domestic and foreign counterparts to come for business exchanges and negotiations, and sincerely hopes to cooperate with friends from all walks of life to jointly contribute to the prosperity of Chinese films.
