China's movie box office revenues in February reached 10 billion yuan ($1.58 billion), setting a worldwide record for a month. And 70 percent of revenues were contributed by domestic filmmakers.
Political advisers from the film industry are calling for more films with Chinese characteristics to build up cultural confidence.
"We have rich cultural elements that can be developed into popular movies," Jackie Chan, the Hong Kong action movie star and member of the 13th CPPCC National Committee, said on Tuesday.
