You're not foolish. You're not aiming too high, you're not wearing shoes too big for you. You're a professional.
You've got a great project but you're not an A list Hollywood producer, you're a work-a-day industry professional just like they were before the lights went on.
China is a new emerging market for “foreign” media - rather large. There are surprisingly many opportunities for smaller productions. Far fewer for blockbusters. There's a bit of a quota on blockbusters. Who wants too many Batman movies in one year? How many also-rans seriously can expect to be recognised while the big players sit at the top table?
Even smaller productions can still earn millions.
Great things from small seeds grow.
What you need is a regular industry get together, not so huge as you'll be lost in the crowd, but well connected. Maybe you'd love to visit China --- we're very happy to receive you here, celebrate you, honour your work. Maybe you'd rather visit New Zealand, or Nepal, or maybe Thailand, and meet with representatives from the same Chinese bureau and production companies there instead.
Better than just continuing to try and try again to breach the Great Wall? Why not knock on an authorised Gate House door and come through, recognised, welcome and feted like the gift you are?
Something close and personable, close to authority, close to investors, close to distributors, close too to Chinese producers, directors and talent who together with you are going to make your project a memorable collaborative commercial success.
