    Since 2022, the treatment of new pollutants has been written into the work report of our government for three consecutive years.

    With the deepening of the construction of beautiful China, China’s ecological environment protection work is developing from the treatment of sensory indicators such as "smog" and "black odor" to the treatment of new pollutants with long-term and hidden hazards.

    "Hard bones" that must be chewed.

    What are new pollutants?

    At present, the new pollutants widely concerned at home and abroad mainly include persistent organic pollutants, endocrine disruptors and antibiotics controlled by international conventions. The production and use of toxic and harmful chemicals are the main sources of new pollutants.

    The reason why new pollutants are called "new" is that on the one hand, they are relative to conventional pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and PM2.5; On the other hand, there are many kinds of new pollutants, and the number of new pollutants that can be identified will continue to increase. At present, there are more than 20 categories of new pollutants of global concern, and each category contains dozens or hundreds of chemicals.

    Jiang Guibin, an academician of the China Academy of Sciences and dean of the School of Resources and Environment of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, believes that "unconscious contact, persistence, and imperceptible harm to human health and environmental systems constitute the common characteristics of new pollutants". With the deepening of understanding and the continuous development of environmental monitoring technology, the types and quantities of new pollutants will continue to change.

    Literature shows that high levels of environmental endocrine disruptors, antibiotics, microplastics and other new pollutants have been detected in air, water and soil in some areas of China. It is generally believed that new pollutants are gradually becoming a new difficulty that restricts the continuous and in-depth improvement of the environmental quality of the atmosphere, water and soil, and it is also a "hard bone" that ecological environmental protection must tackle after smog and black and smelly water bodies.

    The treatment of new pollutants is not easy.

    At present, China is the largest producer and user of chemical products in the world, and also the main supplier of chemical raw materials, with more than 50,000 kinds of chemical substances in production and use. These chemicals are consumed and used in many industries, and some chemicals are closely related to agricultural production, daily necessities, aerospace products and other important fields.

    Hu Jianxin, a professor at Peking University Institute of Environmental Science and Engineering, wrote that China’s annual production of short-chain chlorinated paraffins can reach millions of tons, and chlorpyrifos (note: a pesticide) involves agricultural production and food security. It is difficult to develop their substitutes, and there may be conflicts in availability, performance, cost, environment and safety, so it is difficult to achieve perfection, which brings great challenges to the treatment of new pollutants in the future.

    The treatment of new pollutants mainly involves the chemical industry and its downstream industrial chain. In recent years, China’s industrial technology and management level have greatly improved as a whole, but some enterprises are still at the low end of the industrial chain, and their technical level and management ability are uneven. In cities with rapid industrial development and urbanization, improper waste treatment will lead to organochlorine compounds residues, and industrial activities such as mining and smelting will lead to heavy metal emissions and residues. Frequent use of pesticides and fertilizers in some agricultural areas will cause the emission and residue of organophosphorus compounds.

    The weak foundation of detection is also a difficult problem to be solved urgently. Jiang Guibin found that the key point of new pollutant control is "newness" and the difficulty is "newness". Because it is "new", there are some problems, such as the monitoring method can’t keep up, the pollution base is unclear, the environmental process is unclear, the environmental hazards are not mastered, and the conventional prevention methods don’t work.

    The unclear toxic mechanism of new pollutants and the lack of efficient purification technology also hinder the treatment process of new pollutants. Jiang Guibin suggested that the establishment of "Science and Technology Special Project for New Pollutant Control" should be accelerated, interdisciplinary integration and high-tech application should be promoted, theoretical and technical systems for prevention and control of new pollutants and risk early warning should be developed, and technical support for new pollutant control should be strengthened.

    China is also facing the outstanding problem of coexistence of new pollutants and traditional pollutants.

    There is a clear deployment

    The CPC Central Committee and the State Council attached great importance to the treatment of new pollutants.

    In November 2021, the Opinions of the State Council City, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Deepening the Fight against Pollution made clear arrangements for the treatment of new pollutants, requiring the formulation and implementation of an action plan for the treatment of new pollutants. Half a year later, in May 2022, the General Office of the State Council issued the Action Plan for New Pollutant Control (hereinafter referred to as the Action Plan). This plan puts forward requirements for the treatment of new pollutants from the aspects of overall requirements, action measures and safeguard measures.

    What are the goals for the treatment of new pollutants?

    The Action Plan requires that by 2025, China will complete the environmental risk screening of high-concern and high-yield chemicals and complete a number of environmental risk assessments of chemicals; Dynamically release the list of new pollutants under key control; Implement environmental risk control measures such as prohibition, restriction and discharge restriction on key new pollutants. The regulatory system and management mechanism for environmental risk management of toxic and harmful chemicals have been gradually established and improved, and the ability to control new pollutants has been significantly enhanced.

    How to deal with new pollutants?

    The Action Plan has made 18 specific arrangements from six aspects: improving laws and regulations, conducting investigation and monitoring, strictly controlling the source, strengthening process control, deepening terminal governance and strengthening capacity building. For example, in terms of improving laws and regulations and establishing a sound new pollutant control system, the Action Plan proposes to improve laws and regulations, establish a sound technical standard system, and establish and improve a new pollutant control management mechanism. It is required to establish an inter-departmental coordination mechanism for new pollutant control led by the ecological environment department, with the participation of development and reform, science and technology, industry and information technology, finance, housing and urban construction, agriculture and rural areas, commerce, health, customs, market supervision, drug supervision and other departments, so as to promote the new pollutant control work as a whole.

    In terms of investigation, monitoring and assessment of environmental risks of new pollutants, the Action Plan proposes specific measures such as establishing an environmental information investigation system for chemical substances, establishing an environmental investigation and monitoring system for new pollutants, establishing an environmental risk assessment system for chemical substances, and dynamically publishing a list of new pollutants under key control. It is explicitly required to formulate "one product, one policy" control measures for chemicals listed in the priority control chemicals list, antibiotics, microplastics and other key new pollutants, carry out technical feasibility and economic and social impact assessment of the control measures, identify the main environmental emission sources of the priority control chemicals, formulate and revise the emission standards of relevant industries in a timely manner, and dynamically update the list of toxic and harmful air pollutants, the list of toxic and harmful water pollutants and the list of toxic and harmful substances in the soil under key control.

    The "Action Plan" proposes to carry out pilot projects for the treatment of new pollutants. It is required to focus on petrochemical, coating, textile printing and dyeing, rubber, pesticide, medicine and other industries in the Yangtze River and Yellow River basins and around key drinking water sources, key estuaries, key bays, key mariculture areas, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions, and select a number of key enterprises and industrial parks to carry out pilot projects for the treatment of new pollutants, thus forming a number of demonstration technologies for the green substitution of toxic and harmful chemicals, the reduction of new pollutants and the treatment of new pollutants in sewage sludge, waste liquid and waste residue. Encourage qualified places to formulate incentive policies, promote enterprises to try first and reduce the generation and discharge of new pollutants.

    Overall, the Action Plan has designed a "three-step" governance work path. The first step is "screening", which screens out pollutants with great potential environmental risks and brings them into the scope of giving priority to environmental risk assessment; The second step is "evaluation", aiming at the screened chemical substances, taking the new pollutants with great risks to the environment and health as the key control objects; The third step is "control". For the key control objects determined in the first two steps, comprehensive control measures are implemented in the whole process.

    The Action Plan defines several key time nodes for the treatment of new pollutants.

    For example, in 2022, the first list of new pollutants under key control was released. During the "14 th Five-Year Plan" period, special treatment was carried out for a number of key new pollutants. By the end of 2025, a number of high-toxic and high-risk pesticide varieties will be re-evaluated. Local people’s governments at all levels should strengthen the organization and leadership over the control of new pollutants, and provincial people’s governments are the main bodies to organize the implementation of this action plan. Before the end of 2022, they should organize the formulation of the work plan for the control of new pollutants in their own regions, refine the objectives and tasks, clarify the division of labor among departments, and do a good job in implementation. All relevant departments in the State Council should strengthen the division of labor and cooperation, jointly do a good job in the treatment of new pollutants, and evaluate the implementation of this action plan in 2025.

    In the year when the Action Plan was published, the work report of the Chinese government proposed to strengthen the management of solid waste and new pollutants, and promote garbage classification, reduction and recycling. The following year, the government work report of our country proposed to strengthen the treatment of solid waste and new pollutants. In this year’s government work report, the relevant statement is to strengthen the treatment of solid waste, new pollutants and plastic pollution.

    At the beginning of this year, Xinhua News Agency published "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Construction of Beautiful China in an All-round Way", which called for strengthening the control of solid waste and new pollutants. Accelerate the construction of a "waste-free city", continue to promote the action of controlling new pollutants, and promote the realization of "waste-free" and environmental health in urban and rural areas. Strengthen the comprehensive management of solid waste, limit excessive packaging of commodities, and control plastic pollution through the whole chain. We will deepen the comprehensive ban on the entry of "foreign garbage" and strictly guard against the smuggling and disguised import of various forms of solid waste. Strengthen the supervision, utilization and disposal capacity of hazardous wastes, and strengthen the pollution control of tailings ponds with emphasis on the Yangtze River Economic Belt and the Yellow River Basin. Formulate regulations on environmental risk management of toxic and harmful chemicals. By 2027, the proportion of "waste-free cities" will reach 60%, and the intensity of solid waste production will drop significantly; By 2035, the construction of a "waste-free city" will achieve full coverage, and the eastern provinces will take the lead in building a "waste-free city" in the whole region, and the environmental risks of new pollutants will be effectively controlled.

    Also this year, many provinces in China mentioned the treatment of "new pollutants" in their government work reports. It is the common goal of many places to promote the construction of a "waste-free city" and strengthen the treatment of new pollutants.

    Strengthen collaborative governance

    The characteristics of new pollutants determine that coordinated treatment is needed.

    The environmental risk of new pollutants is an environmental problem faced by all countries in the world.

    DDT mentioned in Silent Spring is one of the chemicals with typical new pollutant characteristics. Its harm spans half a century and spreads to every corner of the world, and it is impossible to control it by one country alone. Professor Hu Jianxin pointed out: "The treatment of some new pollutants requires global action. In addition to being persistent, bioaccumulative, carcinogenic and teratogenic, some new pollutants also have the potential of long-distance migration, which can migrate across international boundaries with air, water or migratory species and be deposited in areas far away from their discharge points, causing worldwide environmental pollution problems. "

    In terms of new pollutant treatment, China has an inter-departmental coordination mechanism.

    Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly put forward the important task of "developing new pollution control". Shortly after the closing of the 20th National Congress, on November 4th, 2022, the first meeting of the Inter-Ministerial Coordination Group for New Pollutant Control was held in Beijing. The leader of the coordination group is Huang Runqiu, Minister of Ecology and Environment. In addition to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the members of the Inter-Ministerial Coordination Group include the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Ministry of Commerce, the Health and Wellness Commission, the General Administration of Customs, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission and other departments.

    On February 2, 2024, the second meeting of the group was held. The meeting pointed out that it is necessary to give full play to the role of the new pollutant control promotion mechanism, strengthen cross-departmental joint actions, increase guidance and assistance to local counterpart departments and enterprises, strengthen supervision and law enforcement, and track down the effectiveness, and systematically promote the key tasks of new pollutant control to make breakthroughs. In addition, it is mentioned that it is necessary to speed up the legislation on the control of new pollutants, promote the implementation of major scientific and technological special projects, plan and lay out a number of major projects, strengthen fiscal, taxation, finance, price and other policy support, and lay a good combination of the rule of law, science and technology and policy.

    In addition to inter-ministerial coordination, there is also inter-provincial cooperation.

    For example, Sichuan and Chongqing have jointly promoted the treatment of new pollutants. On March 14th this year, the first joint meeting of new pollutant control in Sichuan and Chongqing was held in Chongqing. The meeting reported the development of new pollutant control work in 2023 and the work plan for 2024 in the two places. The meeting proposed to carry out joint investigation and monitoring of new pollutants in Sichuan and Chongqing, focus on finding out the current situation of new pollutants such as antibiotics and perfluorochemicals, jointly promote the risk assessment of chemical substances in Chengdu and Chongqing, and provide a basis for issuing a supplementary list of key new pollutants in Chengdu and Chongqing.

    Some provinces are carrying out pilot work.

    For example, Jiangsu is a pilot province for environmental monitoring of new pollutants. The province monitors pollution points in water sources and air in two pilot industrial development zones. Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi and other provinces carried out pilot investigation, monitoring and evaluation of new pollutants in key industries. Anhui province has focused on the whole process monitoring and environmental information investigation, conducted law enforcement inspection on the production, processing and use of new chemical substances, and carried out pilot investigations on basic environmental information of chemical substances. Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has launched a pilot project of investigation and risk assessment of new pollutants in the Yellow River Basin and "one lake and two seas" in the whole region, and carried out non-targeted screening and quantitative monitoring of new pollutants. Shaanxi Province launched a pilot project of compensation for ecological and environmental damage involving new pollutants, which provided guarantee for promoting clean production and green manufacturing.

    At present, various localities have carried out pilot projects in key industries, key fields, key river basins, process monitoring and result guarantee, forming a multi-level and multi-dimensional pilot network. These pilot projects are part of the work of controlling new pollutants. Some places also focus on improving legal protection, issuing regulations on the prevention and control of soil pollution, and clearly implementing and strengthening the control of new pollutants such as persistent organic pollutants.

    According to the plan, in 2025, Jiangsu will initially establish a new pollutant environmental investigation and monitoring system, Shandong will initially establish a new pollutant control system, and Liaoning’s new pollutant control capacity will be significantly enhanced …

    Time is tight and the task is heavy. (Chen Zhenkai, Li Xinran)

Girls in the flower season want to buy a lot of sleeping pills online. The customer service noticed that something was wrong and quietly reported the police.

  Shanxi Evening News (Reporter Xin Ge correspondent Wang Shuanghong) "I just want to buy a lot of sleeping pills. Just sell them to me, and don’t worry about the rest." Faced with the girl’s online shopping requirements, careful online customer service noticed that the girl might have suicidal tendencies and quietly chose to call the police. On December 18th, Shanxi Evening News reporter learned from Xinghualing Branch of Taiyuan Public Security Bureau that a teenage girl who was planning to commit suicide was successfully rescued because of the timely alarm.

  At 12: 39 on December 17th, Xinghualing Branch of Taiyuan Public Security Bureau received the "110" warning instruction from the Municipal Bureau, saying that it had received an alarm from the staff of a shopping website. It turned out that on the evening of 16th, a woman in a dormitory in Dadongguan North Lane, the provincial capital, wanted to buy a lot of sleeping pills on the shopping website. After communicating with it, the customer service staff found that the woman was suicidal. For this reason, the customer service did not agree or reject the woman’s purchase application, but quietly reported the police.

  After receiving the warning instructions, in order to gain time, the police of Dadongguan police station worked in multiple ways at the same time, and all the police officers immediately rushed to the neighborhood to find the woman through the residential property; The police all the way contacted the customer service of the shopping website to learn more about more valuable information clues. Through the information collected by many parties, the police finally verified that the woman who planned to buy a large number of sleeping pills online was a female student under the age of 18.

  "We arrived at the girl’s house at 1 noon that day, knocked on the door in a hurry, and saw that the girl and her mother were at home. This hanging heart was put down." According to the police, in the communication with the girl’s mother, the police learned that there were changes in the girl’s family, and her mother usually paid less attention to her children, which led to the girl’s suicidal thoughts. In this regard, the child’s mother is unaware of it. Subsequently, the policewoman communicated with the girl and learned that the girl was introverted and unwilling to talk. The police have narrowed the distance with girls by telling stories about such police experiences they usually encounter when they go out to the police. The girl began to communicate with the police, saying that she was under great pressure of study, and there were changes at home, so she couldn’t get over the idea of suicide. On the evening of 16th, she tried to commit suicide by buying sleeping pills online, but she didn’t buy them. To this end, she is preparing to go to a nearby drugstore to buy it in the afternoon.

  "In the future, no matter what you encounter in your study and life, you can call me at any time." After nearly an hour of communication between the police and the girl, the girl who intends to commit suicide said that her heart knot has been opened and she will not do stupid things again in the future. When she left, the policewoman gave the girl her mobile phone number.

Improving the stability and competitiveness of the industrial chain and building a smart industrial chain system will promote the deep integration of the cultural industrial chain with the Internet and the Internet of Things, and accelerate cultural inheritance and innovation.

  Second, the new quality productivity in industrial practice

  The application of new quality productivity can always provide new kinetic energy for the cultural industry, such as producing more competitive high-end products, accelerating the research and development of new products and services, optimizing the allocation of production resources, stimulating the vitality of industry development, empowering the industry to improve quality and efficiency, and promoting industrial transformation and upgrading, thus achieving sustainable development.

  Although the application of new quality productivity has brought development opportunities for cultural and creative industries, it also faces some challenges. With rapid technological upgrading and short innovation cycle, it is difficult for cultural and creative enterprises to keep up with the pace; Problems such as talent shortage and imperfect intellectual property protection in cultural and creative enterprises also restrict industrial development, including fierce market competition, serious homogenization of products and services, and insufficient innovation ability and so on. Through the following excellent cases at home and abroad, let’s look at how the cultural and creative industries skillfully use new quality productivity to break the development dilemma.

  1、Digital Dunhuang: AI meets Dunhuang through the Millennium

  In the Mogao Grottoes, I picked up my mobile phone and the nine-color deer wearing ribbons "flew out" from the murals. Touch it, and the nine-color deer will twist and say hello. Scenes of interaction among people, caves and virtual images often appear in Mogao Grottoes. In recent years, the protection and research of Dunhuang culture has broken through the development dilemma and ushered in a bright future. "Digital Dunhuang" has changed from a dream to a reality.

  3. London, UK: The deep integration of digitalization and cultural creation.

  Britain is the first country in the world to put forward the concept of "creative industry". For more than 20 years, the British government has vigorously promoted the development of creative industries, taking creative industries as a "national strategy" and maintaining a high level of concern and high investment. Today, Britain has become the world’s creative center and the world’s leading creative power.

  Take East London Science and Technology City as an example, from the poor gathering place and light industrial zone to the gathering center of global science and technology, digital and creative enterprises, it has mainly experienced three development stages: creative talents gathering, strong government blessing and multi-dimensional sustained efforts. In the 1980s, the deindustrialization of the East End of London attracted many artists and young people to start businesses here, and the industrial workshops became art studios, bars and coffee bars. The East End has gradually developed into the most distinctive and artistic neighborhood in London, and a group of cutting-edge designers have begun to move their studios to the East End. The British government issued the national strategy of "Tech City", and at the same time invested 400 million pounds to build the East London Science and Technology City with the silicon island as the core. East London Science and Technology City began to integrate various resources of the city and build an "ecological circle" of scientific and technological innovation industries. In the marketing strategy, the London Science and Technology Advocacy Group (TLA) was established to vigorously promote the Science and Technology City. In addition, the Science and Technology City also sends science and technology ambassadors overseas to promote international cooperation. With the efforts of various forces, East London Science and Technology City has become the fastest growing science and technology hub in Europe.

  The case of East London Science and Technology City is only a microcosm of London’s development of creative industries. The British government is not stingy with financial incentives, and has introduced the strategy of "culture is digital" to promote innovation and accelerate the transformation and application of cultural digitalization. For example, in the aspect of digital innovation of heritage collections, the British National Archives launched an online collection working group to launch online resources of digital collections; The new version of "British Digital Strategy" is launched, which emphasizes supporting universities to develop new ideas and technologies and encouraging enterprises to innovate by retaining IP and reducing taxes. In addition, London also provides tax relief policies, takes immersive experience as the key area of creative research and development, advocates circular economy, and forms a creative industry form of "resources-products-renewable resources-renewable products".

  Today, London, England has achieved its own leap and become a well-deserved global creative center: one of the three largest advertising industry centers in the world, one of the three busiest film production centers in the world and the international design capital, which has concentrated about 90% of music business activities, 70% of film and television activities, more than 85% of fashion designers and more than 30% of design institutions in Britain. The annual output value of London’s creative industries exceeds 21 billion pounds.

  Looking at the development of new quality productivity, the development of new formats of cultural and creative industries with high concentration and sustainability requires a benign interaction between digital technology and creative content, that is, activating content creativity with scientific research and development and leading technical iteration with novel content.With the blessing of science and technology, traditional culture is innovatively transformed and developed, so that more people love traditional culture, thus enhancing cultural identity and cohesion. Excellent cultural products can also become representatives of the national image, showing the country’s cultural heritage and innovation ability to the world.

  Looking forward to the future, the sustainable development of new quality productivity in creative industries deserves our more attention. This requires the joint efforts of all walks of life from the bottom up in industrial policy, enterprise management and talent cultivation, combining technology research and development with humanistic spirit, strengthening industry collaboration and international exchanges and cooperation through increasingly mature new quality productivity, creating more innovative and sustainable products and services, and injecting sustainable vitality into the prosperity and development of global cultural industries.

"Behind the Scenes" | He collaborated with Jackie Chan, Zhang Yimou, and Yu Feihong underwater

1905 movie network feature "With us around, the remote water supply can’t be cut off." In the movie, the firefighter Xu Xiaobin, who plays the role, jumps into the sea full of oil and flames in order to clean the water pump.

He worked hard to repair, and the final image of his unfortunate sacrifice was vivid and heroic in the lens of the underwater photographer, causing many viewers to cry.

In the movie, the "Expendables" attacked Jingzhou City by water, and the surging light and shadow added another "color" to the black and white ink painting. 


Here, the photographer and the eldest brother soaked in the biting cold water for several hours before completing the drama of diving in the ice cave. The underwater world in the lens is quiet and beautiful, which is fascinating.


How did the amazing underwater shots in the movie, either thrilling or beautiful, work, and how did this special group of underwater photographers, little known to audiences, work?


In this issue of "Behind the Scenes", let’s follow Sun Xun, a well-known domestic underwater photographer who has been in charge of films such as "Shadow", "Kung Fu Yoga" and "Hero of Fire", into the "underwater mystery" behind the lens.


 01. Every shot is a story

After seven years of formal employment, he was responsible for the underwater shooting of countless movies, TV series, documentaries and advertisements. "Heroes of Fire" has always been fresh in Sun Xun’s memory. Since the film is set in the context of an oil pipeline explosion, there must be oil stains, garbage and flames in the seawater. In order to realistically restore the effect of seawater, the art and props team "mixed" pieces of sticky oil stains with starch and paint, and also put in fresh scallops, oysters and other kinds of seafood. The flames are also real burning, which also poses a big challenge to the underwater photography team.


"The camera, the diving equipment, and the face are all covered in a layer of black oil, just like a miner. After shooting for two days, the seafood was soaked for two days, just like a pot of seafood soup, and finally the whole equipment had to be cleaned. But the props team really bothered to have the final real effect." Sun Xun said. At the "Fire Hero" press conference, recalling the shooting experience, Ou Hao said that he almost drowned and experienced a terrifying moment. In the movie, he was shown with a rope tied around his waist, but in the actual shooting, after going into the water, the person kept floating up, and he could only tie the rope to his feet to let people pull him underwater. In addition, shooting outdoors in winter was very physically exhausted, and he could not advance or retreat for a time. "Even now I think about it, I am still a little afraid."


Sun Xun also praised Ou Hao’s contribution: "The actors are very hard-working, and the director and staff are sparing no effort to recreate the tension at that time… China lacks such a film, and we feel honored to be able to participate in the shooting of such a key scene." If the key word of "Hero of Fire" is "bitter", the largest film that Sun Xun has participated in "water drama" is the crime film "Involved in the Sea of Anger" that will be released in the summer. In order to show the human entanglement in extreme environments, there is a long sea shooting in the film, and even Huang Bo, who has excellent water quality, calls it "the most tiring in history".


Sun Xun also felt the same way, "I first shot in the open sea, the sea was very windy, and I was seasick and vomited, which is also an embarrassing thing for me as an underwater photographer. Then I shot a big play in the water shed. Teacher Huang Bo is famous for his water quality, and the completion is very high. He also cooperates well with Teacher Zhou Xun. In addition, the underwater is a dual-camera shooting, and there is a scene of escape in the car. I am looking forward to the effect of the film." Underwater shooting can be both exciting and beautiful and romantic, and the starring literary film shows this.


"Although the film was not very difficult, the shot was very beautiful. At that time, it was Yu Feihong’s inner scene. The beauty of the underwater shot and the mood of the actors fit perfectly. It had the temperament of an Asian literary film. It was the most satisfactory scene from the creator’s point of view," Sun Xun said.

02. Tired and happy

Sun Xun studied engineering at university, but chose the translation industry for his work. When he worked as a translator for a film crew, he began to get involved in photography because of his interest. It can be said that his career has been challenging himself.


In the process of engaging in film and television photography, Sun Xun found that underwater photography teams in China are very scarce. "The film industry is developing rapidly, and industrialization is becoming more and more complex. At that time, there was a wave of aerial photography, and we thought that we might be able to do it underwater."


In this way, from the "dry duck" who couldn’t even swim at the beginning, to the diving expert who could control the machine in the water and move around, Sun Xun and the team developed a set of underwater photography methodology almost from scratch.


There were many differences between underwater photography and shooting on the ground. In particular, shooting in the field was greatly affected by the weather and water conditions, and it was difficult to communicate underwater and underwater. There were three core members of the team, each performing their own duties, and all of them were indispensable: Sun Xun was responsible for the underwater handheld, composition, and camera movement; the second person was responsible for monitoring the focus on the ground and communicating with the ground photography team; there was another person responsible for equipment, coordinating actors, adjusting underwater props, costumes, etc.


 At the same time, the photographer also has to have multiple roles while holding the camera, not only to control the buoyancy, but also to control the machine, to ensure the focus and composition during the movement, and to always pay attention to the safety of the actors. Many directors are not familiar with underwater shooting, and the pre-designed split shots are difficult to complete in actual shooting. For example, due to the influence of buoyancy, the actors will naturally float up when they fall into the water. In order to achieve the "sinking" effect pursued by the director, the team had to bury the Weiya point underwater, "so that they can pull it in reverse, so that they can control the people to slowly go down."


In addition, the actor’s water and physical fitness will also affect the shooting effect. The photographer needs to make an agreement with the actor in advance for underwater gestures such as "rise, sink, take another shot", and pay close attention to the actor’s state. At the scene, the host Roman also changed into equipment and challenged a "drowning scene" shooting. After just shooting for a while, not only did his nose get into water, but his physical strength was also exhausted, and he experienced the difficulty of shooting underwater.


Sun Xun admits that this kind of "hard work" is the norm in this type of work. Because the crew often focuses on shooting underwater scenes a few days ago or when they are close to finishing, the time is tight and the task is heavy. "Generally, it takes 14 to 16 hours to shoot every day, and sometimes even 20 hours."


"If you really come to the scene to watch our filming, you will definitely feel very bitter, but as people who love this profession, we are very excited to shoot, we don’t feel hard, and we don’t feel cold. My favorite is coming out of the water. The director said: Great, this is what I want, I feel very fulfilled!"


In the process of learning, Sun Xun often revisits the classic Hollywood films. As early as the 1954 film "Black Lake Demon Pond", the pioneers began to experiment with underwater photography, and he was deeply admired for his spirit of exploration.

In contrast, Sun Xun said bluntly that the domestic team has a lot of room for improvement in both technology and equipment, but he firmly believes that with the continuous improvement of the industrialization level of domestic films and the improvement of the process, the trickle will definitely merge into rivers and seas, and the underwater lens will definitely record more exciting Chinese stories.
