They will expand in-depth discussions on Chinese film history, the Chinese film market, the development level and problems of contemporary Chinese films, and how to realize the cultural exchange between China and the US through films. By then, the audience will also have the opportunity to compare notes with them.

According to Cai Yibin, president of DCCFF, the film festival was founded in 2011. They had successfully launched exhibitions in 2012 and 2014, which both drew public attention in the area and strengthened the influence of Chinese culture in the US.

Cai believed that "made in China" has enjoyed an excellent reputation worldwide, while the made-in-China cultural and creative industries are enlarging their popularity all over the world. Even the Americans have begun to notice Chinese cultural products recently.

"As a part of made-in-China cultural products, Chinese film covers both humanities and significance of the times. Even in Hollywood movies, Chinese elements are gradually increasing. More and more Chinese directors, actors and actresses are involving in the worldwide film industry," Cai said in an interview with Chinese media.

"As an important carrier of Chinese culture, film has shown its importance and effectiveness on spreading and exchanging Chinese culture. Foreigners can set up a comprehensive and objective understanding of China by watching qualified Chinese films. All in all, film can be a very effective way to enhance the soft power of China. That's just why we are launching such an exhibition," he added.
