Apparently, the Chinese box office is in 007's future. :) Having a major Chinese investor may qualify JB23 as a "domestic" release that's

All foreign films are subject to Chinese government approval anyways, so in essence they have final cut on all films released in China.

But if a major Chinese investor co-finances a film, then Chinese government will be able to control the film's worldwide theatrical versions

That stuff about China having final cut all over the world is totally lame. Doesn't piracy run rampant in China, thereby cutting into BO?
