With its concern and sense of responsibility for the film industry, Film Biweekly organized a group of filmmakers to select outstanding films and outstanding filmmakers of the year, and held a formal award ceremony in cooperation with Radio Television Hong Kong 1982. Since then, the aim is to praise outstanding filmmakers through selection and awards, review the achievements of films in the past year, and hope to promote the quality of Hong Kong films and improve the production level of filmmakers. This is the Hong Kong Film Awards, which has great influence and authority in China film industry.
