Word is that the China Film Copyright Protection Association has hired an attorney to investigate the pirating of Chinese films in the U.S.
China Film Copyright Protection Association chairman Zhu Yongde recently told Beijing Youth Daily that pirated copies of over 150 Chinese films have been found in the US. The pirated films include films by famous Chinese directors as well as CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala. Zhu said the China Film Copyright Protection Association has hired an attorney in the US to investigate the issue.

November 4th, 2005 at 7:31 amThey are doing this so they can say to the US, “You can’t criticize us when you are just as bad.” It will give them some new anti-US propaganda for the masses.
Never mind that the actual pirates are almost certainly Chinese.

Who wants to watch anything by CCTV anyway? Maybe some Chinese people….
