In the end, a total of 7 projects shared 9 awards.

 

At the dinner, Li Ziwei, the CEO of FIRST Youth Film Festival, spoke affectionately to young filmmakers: "We are gradually building a clear picture and watching a solid back in the birth year." Song Wen, the founder of FIRST Youth Film Festival, hopes that FIRST will create a utopia of film every year, where filmmakers can return to their original determination to do this. Chen Guofu, the chairperson of this year’s jury, encouraged nominees who did not win the prize in the end not to be discouraged.

 

"Reindeer" tells a redemptive story about search, identity, brokenness and return, wrapped in a crime highway genre. It won two awards, the script development gold of Hehe Film and the special award of Longyue Producer. Yao Chen, the venture capital judge, Yang Wei, chairperson of Hehe Film, and Zhang Fan, the head of Longyue China, presented awards to director Kangbo and producer Wang Siyu respectively. Kangbo said that the script was written for 8 years, but he did not expect it to germinate in Xining. Zhang Fan said that he will take this project to the European International Film Festival, hoping to expand new boundaries.

 

"One Day Trip" tells the story of a family of three in one day, unfolding a ridiculous picture of the daily life of modern people, expressing the anxiety and confusion in the city.

Adapted from the novel of the same name by Issuka Xu, "The Blood of the King" shows the active choice made after seeing the truth of the world and reality clearly. Winning the New Force Award from Xinli Media, Li Ning, senior vice president of Xinli Media and CEO of Xinli Film, and actor Qin Hailu presented the award to director Gao Zehao. Gao Zehao expressed surprise at the award, because he was a bit capricious when he wrote it, without considering commerciality and marketing, and did not expect that the script would be liked by many people.

It won the most creative award from Hengye Film, and Hengye represented Wu Le and actor Wang Yanhui to award the director Qiao Xingyue. Wu Le said: "It is an honor to contribute a small amount. Thank you FIRST for letting me see more possibilities. We respect the film and respect the filmmakers."

 

"Lao Zheng Flew to the Sky" has a rare candor. The story of middle-aged people and teenagers growing up together combines the forces of midlife crisis and adolescent restlessness, and explores the philosophical proposition of "living to death". It won two awards: the Dadi Film Script Development Fund and the Herui Distribution Support Award. Director Wang Xiaofeng was awarded the award by Zhang Qun, general manager of Dadi Film, actor Liu Hua, and project director Li Haiyang of Herui Film. Wang Xiaofeng said twice when receiving the award: "I believe in FIRST!"

 

"Elite Game" is the most commercial project of this year’s venture capital fair, directly attacking the integrity of international students and piercing the black industry chain of ghostwriting for exams. Winning the Battlestar Film Material Support Award, FIRST founder Song Wen presented an award to director Xu Han. Xu Han said that in addition to gratitude, he is working hard.

 

Li Ziwei exclaimed to the industry guests at the end of the welcome dinner: "The destiny of a good movie is to be watched, and the two ecosystems of creation and viewing are mutually reinforcing. I hope everyone will observe us more, give each other some time, and bring us a better situation."

 

This year, FIRST put forward the concept of "industrial sector" for the first time, incorporating the existing two units of venture capital and industrial field, and further integrating resources at the front and back ends, striving to provide authors with support in various chains of the industry and meet the different demands of creators and industry guests.
