We believe that both films will win the support of the audience when they are released."

After "The Wind", Gao Qunshu directed the spy suspense film "Blade". Gao Qunshu humorously said, "The biggest difficulty in shooting" Blade "is to hope that everyone doesn't always think about" The Wind "when watching the movie." Yu Dong also described "Blade" as a "masterpiece that will make people tremble all over the body", and "I hope the director can take back some of the previously cut lenses. When this movie is released, you will definitely be watching it intently."

The first surprise of the entire press conference was "Youth" directed by Chen Kaige. Yu Dong announced that the movie "Youth" will be released nationwide on August 17th as a heavyweight film for this year's summer season. "This is a work with unique craftsmanship and sincerity, and its weightiness, as well as the memories it presents of that era and those people, are very touching." Chen Kaige said, "This movie is a hymn dedicated to youth. Even though I am no longer a teenager, youth will always be in my heart. I believe that this movie and the people in it will bloom like flowers in the youth kingdom of the movie, emitting a unique light that belongs to that era and today."

At the press conference, Bona Pictures also announced six new projects that are about to be launched. Since the release of "Operation Red Sea" directed by Lin Chaoxian in 2018, netizens have been urging for updates every year, hoping to release a sequel as soon as possible. This urging has lasted for 5 years. Now, the sequel "Operation Red Sea 2: Operation Tiger Whale" has finally been put on the agenda, still directed by Lin Chaoxian. On that day, he admitted that he was under a lot of pressure, "Because everyone loves" Operation Red Sea ", this time we will definitely give everyone more expectations. We will continue to go global and add more excitement to the previous work for everyone to see."

"The Princess of Kashmir" directed by Liu Weiqiang is a spy action blockbuster, and in winter, its weight will be "ten times that of" The Siege of October "; The film "Owl" directed by Zhuang Wenqiang and produced by Huang Bin is also a film that Bona Pictures has been preparing for for many years. On the same day, "The Wenchuan Earthquake" directed by Chen Guohui and produced by Liu Weiqiang was also introduced. "This is a heavy national memory, a past that unites the Chinese people and people's hearts, and a movie that we must complete with awe." Han Han also attended the press conference and revealed that he will continue to cooperate with Bona for his upcoming new film.

On the first day of the Chinese New Year in 2023, the spy blockbuster "Nameless" achieved dual success at the box office and reputation. At that time, Cheng Er revealed that his next new film was called "Mermaid" and he would continue to collaborate with Wang Yibo. At the Bona new film press conference, Cheng Er arrived as scheduled with "Mermaid". Cheng Er revealed that the script for "Mermaid" has not been completed yet, but he has visited many places to survey the scenery, hoping to use this method to sort out "what kind of movie we really want". Cheng Er said that during the process of surveying the scenery, the group suddenly encountered an incredible pouring rain, which gave them some kind of "inspiration": "No matter what, the mermaid will go to its destination."

At the previous 2022 performance exchange meeting, Yu Dong stated that in the next three years, Bona Pictures will form a stable creative and production pattern of "three major films, three small films, and three series", with the series part being an important strategy for Bona Pictures in terms of layout. On the day of the press conference, Bona was the first to announce the progress of five TV series, among which the most eye-catching was the upcoming major revolutionary themed drama "Shangganling" directed by Liu Weiqiang. Yu Dong stated that 2023 marks the 70th anniversary of the victory of the Korean War and hopes to pay tribute to the Korean Volunteer Army through "Shangganling". "We want to try to achieve a breakthrough in the series, which is to use the production standards of movies and the determination to surpass American dramas to film 'Shangganling', presenting a panoramic view of the Battle of Shangganling."

In addition to "Shangganling", the anti-terrorism action drama "I Sacrifice for You", the commercial history drama "Chinese Fighter", the urban suspense romance drama "Hunting Moment", and the urban modern light comedy "Picking up the Light Cafe" are also key TV series projects launched by Bona Pictures after that; In addition, there are science fiction adventure films such as "Sanxingdui: Revelation to the Future", anti-terrorism films such as "Operation Badar", police action films such as "Operation Hurricane", espionage action films such as "Dragon Pond and Tiger's Nest", financial and business war films such as "Wolf of the Stock Market", and the second installment of the Bona Classic IP "Intelligent Extraction of Weihu Mountain" series, "Intelligent Extraction of Weihu Mountain Prequel". Yu Dong revealed that this movie, like the previous film "Taking Tiger Mountain", must be filmed in winter: "I have talked about the idea of this movie with director Tsui Hark and Zhang Hanyu more than a decade ago, hoping to shoot a story before taking Tiger Mountain, which is well-known as the 'Raid on Naitou Mountain'."

Accompanied by the familiar theme music of the "God of Gamblers", Chow Yun fat suddenly appeared at the event site, bringing a surprise to the entire audience. He revealed that the character he played this time was a "street wanderer": "He loves gambling, is irresponsible and disregards his family, but in the end, his family saved him and changed his life..." Pan Yaoming, director of "Don't Call Me the God of Gamblers," said, "I hope everyone can cherish the people around him after watching this movie." The film's producer Huang Bin also revealed that Chow Yun fat accidentally injured his head while filming this movie and got 5 stitches. "Fage didn't let me tell his sister-in-law that he finished sewing and then returned to the production team to film." Chow Yun fat humorously said, "I'm in good health. If you want to have such a good body like me, just follow me for a run often!"
