DURBAN Adidas Ultra Boost Mujer España , South Africa, July 16 (Xinhua) -- The South African Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) said Sunday they will spend about 7.5 million U.S. dollars by March 2018 to support emerging black filmmakers in the country.


At the Emerging Black Filmmakers Workshop during the Durban International Film Festival (DIFF), Director of Film Production at the DTI, Nelly Molokoane said the South Africa Emerging Black Filmmakers Incentive started in 2014 and has so far benefited 40 filmmakers.


"We are planning to host intense workshops in various provinces to assist filmmakers in accessing this support," said Molokoane.


Some producers have been struggling to access funding and the workshop was an information session. The Emerging Black Filmmakers Workshop was targeted at emerging film producers who want to access the incentives scheme and inform them on how to do it.


The workshop was hosted to assist those that needed training on the incentive scheme and guidelines, said Molokoane.


Rehad Desai Adidas Ultra Boost LTD España , Director of the Marikana documentary, Miners Shot Down and a beneficiary of the incentive, said the funding will enable South African producers to compete on the continent and in the world in terms of quality production.


"We are seeing far more films being produced since the launch of the scheme and this means funding of projects happens in a lot short space of time and one can go into production quicker. This also means our production companies are becoming sustainable but the incentive can be made more accessible as some of the costs are regarded as non-qualifying and this affects the production qualification," he added.


DIFF is an annual event which is the oldest and largest film festivals in Southern Africa. The film festival started on July 13 and will end on July 23, 2017.

BEIJING, Feb. 1 (Xinhua) -- With its racing body Adidas Ultra Boost SNS España , reasonable pricing and ecological concept, Tesla's latest pure electric sports car has caught the eye of motor enthusiasts, industry insiders and environmentalists in China.


Amid high sales expectations and cautious sizing up by Chinese automakers, there is also hope that the American upstart can bring fresh air to China's stagnant new energy vehicle sector.


Tesla, a U.S. electric car maker established in 2003, has generated buzz in the United States by building a coast-to-coast network of charging stations for customers to charge their cars quickly during long-distance journeys.


It sold 18 Adidas Ultra Boost Custom España ,650 units of the Model S in the U.S. market last year, up 611.8 percent year on year, ranking third in electric car sales, following products from auto giants General Motors and Nissan.


The company made its debut in China this month with the Model S at a lower-than-expected price of 734,000 yuan (121,300 U.S. dollars) ... Ultra Boost Cookies and Cream España , almost the same as in its home country, excluding taxes and transportation costs.


The move was expected to bring a competitive edge for Tesla to gain a foothold in the world's largest auto market and put pressure on its rivals.


Zhang Junyi, an auto analyst with Roland Berger Strategy Consultants, said that "Tesla could be a catfish put into the sardine pool of China," stimulating domestic manufacturers to carry out development of their own high-end electric vehicle brands.


However, Tesla's success on the other side of the Pacific is far removed from the complex competition of the Chinese market Adidas Ultra Boost Kith España , and its high expectations in both sales and influence have yet to be proved in China.


In 2013, vehicle sales in China totaled 21.98 million units, marking the country's fifth straight year as the world's largest auto market.


Nevertheless, sales of new energy vehicles stood at just 17,642 units, with sales of pure electric cars even weaker Adidas Ultra Boost ACE 16 España , accounting for less than 0.1 percent of the country's total car sales.


While the lackluster sales in China indicate a difficult market for Tesla, the figure also suggests the untapped potential of the emerging market and reveals there are few, if any, strong competitors that pose a threat to Tesla.


"Actually, no automakers in China consider electric sedans for individual customers a major development strategy, not to mention as luxury cars for high-end buyers Adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged España ," said Zhong Shi, an auto industry analyst.


Jia Xinguang, an industry insider, echoed Zhong's words, pointing out that market demand for electric sedans has remained weak, as few electric auto models in China can satisfy consumers and compete with conventional cars.


Chinese electric car buyers still face difficulties in finding charging stations when their batteries run low.


More importantly Adidas Ultra Boost ATR Mid España , according to Jia, price-sensitive Chinese car buyers are more inclined to choose gasoline vehicles that provide a more comfortable driving experience at the same or lower price.


Chinese companies are therefore reluctant to spend big bucks exploiting the electric sedan market, as even the most popular domestic brands from major producers like BYD Auto, Chery and JAC Motors saw their electric car sales linger around the thousand-unit level.


Even if homegrown manufacturers change their mind and try to catch up with their peers overseas, their technological reserves and financing mechanisms in China can't support production and promotion of cars like Tesla's, Zhong said.


"However Adidas Ultra Boost Clima España , the electrification of public transportation services has proved to be a growth point boosted by government p.
