Shi Zhongjun emphasized that the year 2026 marks the 76th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Viet Nam and China, coinciding with the fifth anniversary of ASEAN-China Comprehensive Strategic Partnership. In this context, the “ASEAN (Viet Nam) Movie Night” event is a dual celebration of special significance.

史忠俊强调，2026年适逢中国—东盟建立全面战略伙伴关系5周年主题年及中越建交76周年。新年伊始，中心举办“东盟（越南）电影之夜”活动具有特殊意义。电影之夜活动将为促进文化交流、增进青年友谊发挥积极作用，有助于增进中国东盟相互了解，巩固中国与东盟的友好关系。

Pham Thanh Binh stated that film is a “cultural ambassador”, capable of conveying the image of a nation and its people with great authenticity and depth, and it also serves as a vital link, fostering mutual understanding and strengthening the emotional bonds between peoples of different countries. He expressed the hope that through this event, the emotional exchanges and friendly relations between Viet Nam and other countries can be further enhanced.
范清平表示，电影是“文化大使”，它能真切而深刻地展现一国的风土人情与精神风貌，也能搭建起跨越国界的理解之桥，促进各国人民之间的心灵相通与友好情谊，希望通过本次活动进一步增进越南与各国之间的情感交流与友好关系。

The Vietnamese film “Once Upon a Love Story”, released in 2024, was screened at the event.
