Big Screen Entertainment Group Gains Entry Into Chinese Market;
Signs Letter of Intent With SARFT and Inks 20 Film Deal With China
Film Group Corporation
HOLLYWOOD, CA--(Marketwired - Nov 29, 2013) - In what will prove
to be a major milestone for the company, Big Screen Entertainment
Group (PINKSHEETS: BSEG) is pleased to announce that it has signed
a letter of intent with the Chinese Film Management Bureau of the
State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT).
As a result, BSEG and SARFT will work jointly to further
Sino-U.S. co-productions with the goal of ultimately expanding
Chinese culture and entertainment products in the international
market.
SARFT is the executive branch under the state council of the
Chinese government. Its main task is the administration and
supervision of state-owned enterprises in the film, television and
radio industries.
The cooperative agreement with SARFT opened the way for BSEG to
sign a major 20-film output deal with the China Film Group
Corporation. As the sole importer of foreign films into China and a
major exporter of foreign films, China Film Group Corporation has
been the object of international attention. The deal includes the
release of some of China's largest grossing titles domestically in
the U.S. and internationally through BSEG's Domestic and European
distribution division and international sales team.
The deal puts BSEG in an excellent position to distribute
Chinese content domestically in the states and opens the road for
government assistance and co-productions in China.
"This is an unbelievable opportunity for the company, and a
milestone of immense proportion. We are looking forward to working
with these organizations to create and distribute art that will
resonate across cultures and make a lasting impact on the film
industry," said CEO Kimberley Kates. This news comes as part of
BSEG's efforts to expand its production and distribution slate for
2014 and secures its position as a key facilitator in East-West
cooperative ventures.
