A symposium focalizing on the globalization of the Chinese movie industry was held on April 10 by the Center for China and Globalization (CCG), a leading Chinese independent think tank dedicated to the study of Chinese public policy and globalization.
A panel of experts from cultural industries and CCG representatives were brought together for the event, to fully examine the success of the Hollywood movie industry and draw parallels and contrasts with the current internationalization of China’s cultural industries.
The symposium opened with a feature presentation given by Chui-Ti Jansen (Liu Qiudi), CCG senior non-resident fellow, founder of the multimedia platform China Happenings and columnist for the Financial Times. Liu’s speech tracked the historical development of Hollywood and its close links to the growth of US influence, showing the global shift of economic power also plays a significant role in this relationship.
