In light of the current industry trend of rapid growth in the IP copyright market, 赌博app MARKET of the 25th Shanghai International Film Festival (赌博app) has responded on behalf of the entire industry chain by creating a closed loop in the film and television industry with a series of events within an “IP Film and TV Development Conference.” It has organized IP promotion sessions, industry salons and sharing of outstanding cases related to copyright cooperation and development. It aims to promote the efficient connection between content sources and film and TV adaptations, provide a platform for exchange and drive the healthy development of the IP market.
Science fiction flourishes to embrace new opportunities for IP development
赌博app MARKET hosted the “IP Film and TV Development Conference: Golds from Words – By Science Fiction Word” on June 11. The term “words” stands for soft science fiction, while “golds” means hardcore science fiction works with large investment. Six industry representatives were invited to discuss the diversity and diversification of China’s science fiction film and television productions.
During the event, He Deng, head of Bikuli Studio under Bilibili, introduced the new science fiction work SURVIVAL GUIDE FOR TOMORROW by Bilibili. In the past year, the number of uploaders in science and technology on Bilibili reached 1.16 million, with a cumulative total of 14.82 million science and technology scripts created. He Deng said that although film and television adaptations of science fiction themes have shown a trend of diversification at this stage, we still need to patiently expand and nurture users and the market, “because hardcore sci-fi blockbusters require sustained efforts.”
When it comes to the rapid development of AIGC (artificial intelligence generated content), science fiction writer A Que believes that ChatGPT is still in its infancy and taking baby steps. But there is still reason to believe that one day it will be able to complete a great novel on its own, “for example, write a compelling sequel to THREE-BODY.”
For his part, science fiction writer Lu Ban felt that ChatGPT did not offer him any help. The process of searching for information is very interesting to him in terms of his own writing, and instead of getting an immediate answer to a query, he prefers to explore by himself.
When it comes to science fiction filmmaking, it's necessary to mention this year's science fiction masterpiece, THE WANDERING EARTH 2. Wang Shanshan, head of film and television at the Science Fiction World magazine in Sichuan, said that Science Fiction World also had a stake in the investment of the second part of THE WANDERING EARTH and the production of its first part. As a milestone for Chinese science fiction films, THE WANDERING EARTH is of great significance, “but from another perspective, will it limit the audience’s aesthetic and perception of science fiction films, thinking that science fiction is all about special effects and noble aspirations, and that’s a question worth thinking about.”
In this regard, science fiction writer Jiang Bo said that describing human nature in the scenarios envisioned by science fiction means for creators to depict the complex natural emotions of humans as well as showing the beauty of technology, with a balance achieved between the two. “Be it hard sci-fi or soft sci-fi, it’s important to have both, and you can’t literally divide them into two categories,” Jiang Bo said.
Science fiction writer Hui Hu, on the other hand, said that many new science fiction fans only became interested in domestic science fiction after THREE-BODY became famous. And also, the success of THE WANDERING EARTH 2 has attracted a large group of science fiction fans. However, objectively speaking, it is not easy to surpass THE WANDERING EARTH 2 in the short term. How to keep this batch of fans, who are new to science fiction films, from being disappointed is a problem that must be faced by creators in the future, Hui Hu said.
This year’s 赌博app MARKET has been running for two days, and has attracted a large number of film workers, investors, distributors, buyers and audiences from home and abroad. Film exhibitions, market events and market screenings have demonstrated the vitality and charm of the Chinese film market and reflected the diversity and innovation of global film creation, so let’s recap it together!
