On the morning of April 16th, a press conference was held for The Eleventh Chapter, a film shortlisted in Tiantan Award of the 9th Beijing International Film Festival (BJIFF), with the attendance of Song Xianqiang, general producer, and Chen Jianbin, the director. This film, written, directed and acted by Chen Jianbin, is highly concerned by the media and fans.

　　In The Eleventh Chapter, a case happening 30 years ago is adapted by the municipal drama troupe into a stage play, making a wave in the heart of Ma Fuli, a person concerned in the case. While reasoning with Hu Kunting, a director of the troupe, Ma turns to a lawyer to seek truth and clear his name, and is busy dealing with the tension between his wife Jin Cailing and his daughter Jin Duoduo. He suffers heavy hits in life. Whether can he reverse the verdict?

　　What is the truth?

　　The press conference attracted many media, and reporters scrambled to ask questions to the creator-in-chief. Some media asked why the movie is finally adopted with the name The Eleventh Chapter. Director Chen Jianbin admitted that the film had another name in the stage of script and shooting, and The Eleventh Chapter was found in the later stage. It is integrated with the story of the film. It is not only a name, but also a part of the story, which can help the creators express better, and also help the audiences understand the story.

　　As the producer of The Eleventh Chapter, Song Xianqiang told reporters that at the beginning of reading the script, he hoped that the film could be shown to more audiences and get a good box office. In the actual production process, while giving consideration to commercial demands, he kept the connotation of the film itself and the pursuit of artistic expression, and retained the style and many ideas of the director Chen Jianbin.

　　At the press conference, another young journalist raised a question about the poster: "The poster of The Eleventh Chapter is very special. A balloon is pulling a tractor, but we all know that a tractor is too heavy to be pulled by a balloon. What's the meaning of such a poster?

　　Chen Jianbin smiled and answered the question of the young journalist, “Many incredible things will happen in life. When we put this part of the content on the stage and on the screen, people will feel very absurd. Actually, it's real, but we can't accept it, just like the feeling that this poster gives people. ” He also mentioned that this film contains stories that happened 30 years ago. Tractor is one of the most important props, so the image of tractor is used in the poster.

　　The Eleventh Chapter is the second film directed by Chen Jianbin since he launched A Fool in 2014. The debut work A Fool makes Chen Jianbin a good actor and a director who wins a lot of praise and gains a lot of shooting experiences. Compared with the first film, The Eleventh Chapter features richer stories and more complicated character clues. Director Chen Jianbin also faces more challenges.

　　Chen Jianbin believes that the greatest difficulty in the production of this film lies in the creation and improvement of scripts. It is very difficult to write a good story which should not only make the audiences feel good, but also keep the creator's pursuit in the story. During the script compilation, it was sometimes difficult to find a creative idea. But in any case, as long as we can keep thinking, inspirations will come to us one day. The answer, which has been missing for many days, suddenly becomes clear. It will make one feel very happy at that moment.
