The historical blockbuster "Red Silk" has been widely released in China

The Russian-Chinese historical blockbuster "Red Silk" has been widely released in China. This was reported on September 6 by a correspondent of Izvestia.

This film is the biggest project in the Russian and Chinese film industries. It also became an example of cooperation and unification of two cultures.

It is noted that the plot is based on a common story: Chinese communists go to the Soviets to organize a party congress in the USSR. This topic is of particular interest to Chinese viewers.

"Red Silk" was released in thousands of Chinese cinemas on September 6. Most of the audience bought tickets for the show in advance, while others purchased them on the spot.

It is specified that Russia and China have not yet done such large-scale projects. This event also gained great importance for those who came to watch the film.

"This is my first time watching a movie that China and Russia made together. That in itself is interesting. As soon as I heard about the shooting, I decided that I would go watch Red Silk," one of the viewers shared his impressions.

Screen time: the premiere of "Red Silk" was a success in Beijing

The film was presented to the Chinese audience by Milos Bikovic and Zheng Hanyi.

Global Time reported on September 5 that the film "Red Silk", which premiered in China on September 4, made a strong impression on viewers in China. The film has already collected more than 689 million rubles at the Russian box office and entered the top 10 highest-grossing films of the year.

Later, on September 6, the audience in Beijing, who came to the screening of the film "Red Silk" at the China Film International International Cinema (Oriental Plaza CINEMA branch), shared their emotions. According to one of the audience, Huang Huanghe, he decided to come and watch the film because "Red Silk" is the first Russian—Chinese film in his memory.

Russian President Vladimir Putin, responding to a question from Izvestia on September 3 about the first retro film made by the two countries, Red Silk, stressed that the idea of joint filmmaking between Russia and China belongs to Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The film was created with the participation of NMG Kinoprokat, a company that is part of the National Media Group holding.
