Because of this blog, our China lawyers get a fairly steady stream of China law questions from readers, mostly via emails but occasionally via blog comments as well. If we were to conduct research on all the questions we get asked and then comprehensively answer them, we would become overwhelmed. So what we usually do is provide a super fast general answer and, when it is easy to do so, a link or two to a blog post that may provide some additional guidance. We figure we might as well post some of these on here as well. On Fridays, like today.
We are often asked questions along the lines of “Where can I go to find out more about ________” When this question relates to Chinese law, we are rarely able to help because our China attorneys do their legal research in Chinese. And when the question is about something other than Chinese law, our China attorneys are rarely able to help because, well, we focus on Chinese law.
But earlier this week I received an email from one of our movie clients asking me if I was aware of where she might be able to find good writings on China’s movie and entertainment industry and, shockingly enough, I was because earlier in the week I had been reading Bridging the Dragon’s website. “Bridging the Dragon is an association connecting European and Chinese film industries” and its website maintains the following really sweet list and amazingly comprehensive list of “Useful Links” relevant to the China movie and entertainment industry:
Beijing International Film Festival
China Film Co-Production Corporation
The CFI Guide to Film Production in China
China Law Blog — Hey, that’s us!
Chinese Literature in Translation – Paper Republic
Hong Kong – Asia Film Financing Forum
Shanghai International Film Festival
I am not aware of any China relevant movie/entertainment sites missing from this list, but if you are, please let us all know in a comment below.
We will be discussing the practical aspects of Chinese law and how it impacts business there. We will be telling you what works and what does not and what you as a businessperson can do to use the law to your advantage. Our aim is to assist businesses already in China or planning to go into China, not to break new ground in legal theory or policy.
