A report issued by the China Film Association is suggesting the number of co-production movie projects initiated last year have achieved a record high in history.
A total of 94 co-production movie projects were initiated in 2015, which is 17 more than that of the previous year. Among all projects initiated, 60 were approved by Chinese film authorities.
Filmmakers from 11 countries around the world have collaborated with Chinese filmmakers, including those from the US, UK, India, France, Japan, South Korea, Italy and Australia.
The report says co-production between Chinese mainland and Hong Kong makes up the majority, with 48 projects initiated and 38 approved.
Among them, the blockbuster Monster Hunt broke Chinese box office records with a startling income of over 2.4 billion RMB.
