dezorz Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) i tought hunger games as well as hugo are release under flat rate program in china. (apart from 2O normal and 14 imax/3D films, which non us right holders get 25 percent share from chinaese box office, there is also 40 foreign films which can be releases in china under flat rate, non chinese right holders get upfron price and dont share any part of box office receipts) but that press news article, at least for hunger games, claims regular box office share. whats more, they claim it will be 25 percent share, which is, as far as i remember, first news about wto agreement beign finally used. The Hunger Games to be Released in 67 IMAX Theaters in China Just the same as MIB3, both 67 IMAX. Edited May 25, 2012 by dezorz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SentryTrans Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 how can a country depending on its own exports be protectionist?what if the others start to close their markets to chinese products?The main reason is most Chinese people are still too poor now, so consuming abilities are quite low.The competitive powers of local enterprises are weak, without protectionist policies, most of them will go bankrupt.It might need more than 20 years to change these conditions.Many countries have closed their markets to some Chinese products, but these are normal trade disputes.

SentryTrans Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 (edited) trade should never be a oneway roadNo country want a oneway trade.The current condition is that the consuming abilities of most emerging markets are too low, their people can't consume more foreign products.China has more than 14b people, but only about 10% of them are middle class.

SentryTrans Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 There are about 12,000 screens now.One big blockbusters can get 3,000-4000 screens, that means it can get 15,000-20,000 shows one day.The film market capacity is becoming larger and larger.
