'The Composer' wins four titles of 2019 Golden Screen awards

Iris Wang, producer of "The Composer" and general manager of Shinework Pictures, told Xinhua that the picture cost crews from China, Kazakhstan, Russia and South Korea five years to complete, and more than 20,000 people joined the works.

"This film and these awards showed how important and how excellent the cooperation between artists from different countries could be," Iris Wang told Xinhua after she took the Best Co-Production Film award on stage, "we're eager to create more cooperation opportunities in future."

Her remarks echoed by US and Chinese entertainment industry leaders and talented creatives, who all shared an evening of mutual appreciation at the ceremony.

"This is a wonderful event that goes to show what genuine opportunities there are for successful co-productions," English-born producer, Ian Jessel, told Xinhua, who is no stranger to working with China and has just successfully financed a slate of 6 pictures with backers from China.
