Both major film queens Angelica Lee and Fan Bingbing have works selected for this year's Hong Kong Asia Film Financing Forum. This forum has annually attracted numerous representatives from major international film festivals, making it one of the stepping stones for films to go international. Fan Bingbing has a great chance to participate in international film festivals as an actress again, following her previous work 'Green Night'! As for Angelica Lee, she will also be present at the booth to promote her new work, since the financing forum involves fundraising projects, the 'dual queens' will work together to attract funds for their new films!
Fan Bingbing, who has previously won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress, gained weight last year for the Malaysian film 'The Mother Earth', which is selected for this year's Hong Kong Asia Film Financing Forum under the 'In-Production Projects'. Angelica Lee, a Golden Horse Award Best Actress who produced 'Fudu Youth' two years ago, is producing another film 'Black Tide' this year, which has been selected under the 'In-Development Projects'.
The financing forum not only helps films break into the international scene but also invites film investors from around the world to participate in the event in Hong Kong to raise production and promotional funds for the selected films. The new works of Angelica Lee and Fan Bingbing are certainly part of this. Starting from the 17th, Angelica Lee, in her role as a producer, will personally be at the relevant booth to explain the filming plan to investors from various regions, hoping to raise more funds.
