comment:
in recent years, the explosive emergence of chinese sci-fi films including the "moon man" couldn't happen without a series of incentive policies and upgrade of filming technology. we are looking forward to chinese sci-fi films' fluid advancement in innovation abundant in local elements, winning wider recognition in overseas markets.
