At the concert, Xi Meijuan, the winner of the 35th China Film Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress, and Hou Yong, the winner of the 20th and 27th China Film Golden Rooster Awards for Best Supporting Actor, lit up the "Golden Rooster" together.

The 2023 China Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival and the 36th Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards kicked off on the 1st, and major activities such as the Golden Rooster Film Festival, Golden Rooster Film Market, and Golden Rooster Film Forum, as well as supporting activities such as the 2023 Xiamen Russian Film Culture Week and the 2023 First Cross-Strait Youth Film Festival, were held one after another.

Taiwanese actor Zhang Rongrong participated in the Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards for the first time. She said that this was a very good learning opportunity, and she arrived in Xiamen on October 10, and she "rushed" to study in one activity after another, and she was not able to take a good look at the beautiful scenery of Xiamen.

Li Guanxian, a young director from Taiwan, also said that this is an event to meet friends with films, when talking about his feelings about participating in the Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards. In the process of communicating with young directors from the mainland, Hong Kong and Macao, I learned a lot from each other through the film and reflected on what I could learn from them.

"I am very envious of the mainland's film market, and I feel that breaking 100 million has become a basic equipment." Gong Wanxiang, a young director from Taiwan, said that the mainland's film market mechanism is very complete, and every filmmaker can succeed if he works hard and has a good script. I hope to carry out exchanges and cooperation with directors from the mainland in the future.

Founded in 1981, the Chinese Film Golden Rooster Award, known as the "Expert Award" for Chinese films, is a national award event sponsored by the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles and the China Film Association. As a key activity of the film festival, this year's Chinese Film Golden Rooster Awards will select the best feature film, special jury award, best actor, best actress and other awards. (ENDS)
