The period also produced the first big Chinese movie stars, such as Hu Die, Ruan Lingyu,Li Lili,Chen Yanyan,Zhou Xuan, Zhao Dan and Jin Yan. Other major films of the period include Nationalists and the Communists struggled for power and control over the major studios; their influence can be seen in the films the studios produced during this period.

The private studios in Shanghai, including Kunming, Wenhua, Guotai and Datong, were encouraged to make new films from 1949 to 1951. They made approximately 47 films during this period, but soon ran into trouble, owing to the furore over the Kunlun-produced drama Sun Yu and starring veteran Zhao Dan. The feature was accused in an anonymous article in Mao Zedong, the film was banned, a Film Steering Committee was formed to "re-educate" the film industry and within two years, these private studios were all incorporated into the state-run Shanghai Film Studio.

The thawing of censorship in 1956–57 (known as the Hundred Flowers Campaign) and the early 1960s led to more indigenous Chinese films being made which were less reliant on their Soviet counterparts.Lü Ban. Anti-Rightist Movement and Lü was banned from directing for life.The Unfinished Comedy was only screened after Mao"s death.Sang Hu"s Lu Xun story) and Shui Hua"s Mao Dun story). The most prominent filmmaker of this era was Xie Jin, whose three films in particular, Beijing and Shanghai remained the main centers of production, between 1957–60 the government built regional studios in Guangzhou, Xi"an and Chengdu to encourage representations of ethnic minorities in films. Chinese cinema began to directly address the issue of such ethnic minorities during the late 1950s and early 1960s, in films like

In the years immediately following the Cultural Revolution, the film industry again flourished as a medium of popular entertainment. Production rose steadily, from 19 features in 1977 to 125 in 1986.film festivals sold quickly. The industry tried to revive crowds by making more innovative and "exploratory" films like their counterparts in the West.

The New Documentary Movement in recent times has overlapped with the dGeneration filmmaking, with most documentaries being shot cheaply and independently in the digital format. Xu Xin"s Zhao Liang"s Behemoth, Huang Weikai"s Zhao Dayong"s Du Haibing"s Xu Tong"s Li Ning’s

Since the late 1980s and progressively in the 2000s, Chinese films have enjoyed considerable box office success abroad. Formerly viewed only by cineastes, its global appeal mounted after the international box office and critical success of Ang Lee"s period wuxia film Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film in 2000. This multi-national production increased its appeal by featuring stars from all parts of the Chinese-speaking world. It provided an introduction to Chinese cinema (and especially the wuxia genre) for many and increased the popularity of many earlier Chinese films. To date Crouching Tiger remains the most commercially successful foreign-language film in U.S. history.

Huayi Brothers is China’s most powerful independent (i.e., non state-owned) entertainment company, Beijing-based Huayi Brothers is a diversified company engaged in film and TV production, distribution, theatrical exhibition, as well as talent management. Notable films include 2004"s Kung Fu Hustle; and 2010"s Aftershock, which had a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Following the February 1986 People Power Revolution (EDSA 1), the Chinese Filipinos quickly gained national spotlight as Cory Aquino, a Tarlac Chinese mestiza from the influential Cojuangco family took up the Presidency.

According to a study of around 30,000 gravestones in the Manila Chinese Cemetery which writes the birthplace or family ancestral origins of those buried there, 66.46% were from Jinjiang City (Quanzhou), 17.63% from Nan"an, Fujian (Quanzhou), 8.12% from Xiamen in general, 2.96% from Hui"an County (Quanzhou), 1.55% from Longxi County (now part of Longhai City, Zhangzhou), 1.24% from Enming (Siming District, Xiamen), 1.17% from Quanzhou in general, 1.12% from Tong"an District (Xiamen), 0.85% from Shishi City (Quanzhou), 0.58% from Yongchun County (Quanzhou) and 0.54% from Anxi County (Quanzhou).

The changes in Chinese education initiated with the 1973 Philippine Constitution led to a large shifting of mother tongues, reflecting the assimilation of the Chinese Filipinos into general Philippine society. The older generation of Chinese Filipinos, who were educated in the old curriculum, typically use Philippine Hokkien at home, while most younger-generation Chinese Filipinos are more comfortable conversing in English, Filipino (Tagalog), and/or other Philippine languages like Cebuano, including their code-switching forms like Taglish and Bislish, which are sometimes varyingly admixed with Philippine Hokkien to make Hokaglish.

The Chinese who survived the massacre in Manila in the 1700s fled to other parts of the Philippines and to hide their identity, some also adopted two-syllable surnames ending in "son" or "zon" and "co" such as: Yanson = Yan = 燕孫, Ganzon = Gan = 颜孫(Hokkien), Guanzon = Guan/Kwan = 关孫 (Cantonese), Tiongson/Tiongzon = Tiong = 仲孫 (Hokkien), Cuayson/Cuayzon = 邱孫 (Hokkien), Yuson = Yu = 余孫, Tingson/Tingzon = Ting = 陈孫 (Hokchew), Siason = Sia = 谢孫 (Hokkien).

Chinese Filipino political participation largely began with the People Power Revolution of 1986 which toppled the Marcos dictatorship and ushered in the Aquino presidency. The Chinese have been known to vote in blocs in favor of political candidates who are favorable to the Chinese community.

Filipinos of Chinese ancestry are estimated to control 60 to 70 percent of the Philippine economy.John Gokongwei, whose conglomerate JG Summit Holdings controlled 28 wholly-owned subsidiaries with interests ranging from food and agro-industrial products, hotels, insurance agencies, financial services, electronic components, textiles and garments, real estate, petrochemicals, power generation, printing, newspaper publishing, packaging materials, detergents, and cement mixing.PCI Bank and Far East Bank, in addition to negotiating the acquisition of one of the Philippines"s oldest newspapers, Philippines stock exchange are owned by Filipinos of Chinese ancestry.

One of the first major powers to support reforms and the new republic of progressive leaders in early 20th century China, the United States recognized the ROC from 1913 until the end of 1978.Taiwan Relations Act (TRA),P.L. 96-8, has governed policy toward Taiwan.

However, accounts of President Nixon"s secret talks with PRC Premier Zhou Enlai in China in 1972 reported that Nixon made promises on the question of Taiwan in return for diplomatic normalization that went beyond the communique issued at the end. The Carter Administration later called the promises: "Nixon"s Five Points."

Despite these apparent similarities in U.S. policy statements, some contend that the U.S. position, since originally formulated in 1972, has adopted the PRC"s "one China" principle—rather than steadily maintaining neutrality and equal distance from Beijing and Taipei. In 1982, Senator John Glenn criticized both the Carter and Reagan Administrations:

In the 106thCongress, the FY2000 NDAA (P.L. 106-65) enacted a requirement for the Pentagon to submit annual reports on PRC military power and the security situation in the Taiwan Strait.

In the 107thCongress, the NDAA for FY2002 (P.L. 107-107), enacted December 28, 2001, authorized the President to transfer (by sale) the four Kidd-class destroyers to Taiwan (§1011), under Section 21 of the AECA. Also, Section 1221 of the act required a section in the annual report on PRC military power (as required by P.L. 106-65) to assess the PLA"s military acquisitions and any implications for the security of the United States and its friends and allies. The scope of arms transfers to be covered was not limited to those from Russia and other former Soviet states, as in the original House language (H.R. 2586).

In the 111thCongress, Senator John Cornyn introduced on July 23, 2009, an amendment to the NDAA for FY2010 to require President Obama to report on an assessment of Taiwan"s air force, in examining Taiwan"s need for new F-16C/D fighters. In conference, the Senate Armed Services Committee receded on the section to require in the legislation for a Presidential report on Taiwan"s air force and U.S. options. Still, the conference report (H.Rept. 111-288) directed the Defense Secretary to submit an assessment to Congress on Taiwan"s air defense. The bill was enacted as P.L. 111-84 on October 28, 2009. Secretary Gates submitted an unclassified study to Congress in February 2010. The Obama Administration later submitted on September 22, 2011, the Defense Department"s comprehensive, classified report on Taiwan"s air power.

In the 113thCongress, the House, on June 14, 2013, passed H.R. 1960 (McKeon), the FY2014 NDAA, with Section 1265 to direct the President to sell 66 F-16C/D fighters (approved as language offered by Representative Gerald Connolly for amendments en bloc). The Senate Armed Services Committee"s report of June 20 (S.Rept. 113-44) for the FY2014 NDAA, S. 1197, extended the deadline to July 15, 2013, for the Defense Department to brief on Taiwan"s air power and requested a classified report on Taiwan"s air force by December 1. The briefing took place on July 17. The House-Senate agreement on the NDAA of December 10 did not include Section 1265, while calling on the President to continue to take steps to enable Taiwan"s air force to contribute to a "sufficient" self-defense capability. The Defense Department delivered a classified report on Taiwan"s air force to Congress on January 3, 2014.

President Nixon in 1972, President Carter in 1978, and President Reagan in 1982 publicly stated the U.S. expectation that "the Chinese" themselves will settle the Taiwan question. Reagan also gave "Six Assurances" to Taiwan. The assurances, made just before the United States and the PRC issued the August 17, 1982, Joint communique, included assurances that Washington will not mediate between Taipei and Beijing, and will not pressure Taipei to negotiate with Beijing.

Our military presence inTaiwanat this moment is composed of two elements, the two-thirds of it which is related to activities in other parts of Asia [the Vietnam War] and the one-third of it which is related to the defense ofTaiwan. We are prepared to remove that part related to activities other than to the defense ofTaiwan, that"s two-thirds of our force ... within a specified brief period of time after the ending of the war inIndochina. We are prepared to begin reducing our other forces onTaiwanas our relations improve, so that the military questions need not be a principal obstacle between us. I may say, incidentally, that these are personal decisions of President Nixon which have not yet been discussed with our bureaucracy or with Congress, and so should be treated with great confidence.

With regard toTaiwan, I do not believe a permanent American presence—whatever happens in our meetings—is necessary to American security....My goal is the withdrawal of our remaining forces, not just two-thirds, but all forces, including the remaining one-third....It must be consistent with ... the so-called Nixon Doctrine. Under that Doctrine, we are cutting our forces in Korea....Two-thirds will go, hopefully as soon as we can finish ourVietnaminvolvement. My plan also is one which reduces the one-third and withdraws it during the period I have the power to act. But I cannot do it before January of next year. It has to be over a period of four years. Now if someone asks me when I return, do you have a deal with the Prime Minister that you are going to withdraw all American forces fromTaiwan, I will say "no." But I am telling the Prime Minister that it is my plan....

After reunification with the motherland, the Taiwan special administrative region will assume a unique character and may practice a social system different from that of the mainland.It will enjoy independent judicial power, and there will be no need to go to Beijing for final adjudication. What is more, it may maintain its own army, provided it does not threaten the mainland.The mainland will not station anyone in Taiwan.Neither troops nor administrative personnel will go there.The party, governmental, and military systems of Taiwan will be administered by the Taiwan authorities themselves. A number of posts in the central government will be made available to Taiwan.

Peaceful unification is a set policy of the Chinese Government. However, any sovereign state is entitled to use any means it deems necessary, including military ones, to uphold its sovereignty and territorial integrity. The Chinese Government is under no obligation to undertake any commitment to any foreign power or people intending to splitChinaas to what means it might use to handle its own domestic affairs.

6. Hong Kong and Macau are integral parts of the Chinese nation ... Post-1997 Hong Kong and post-1999Macauare naturally a matter of great concern to us. In this regard, the ROC government has reiterated its determination to maintain normal contact with Hong Kong and Macau, further participate in affairs related to Hong Kong and Macau, and provide better services to our compatriots there....

[The principle of the "1992 Consensus; One China, Respective Interpretations"] is based on the concept of "mutual non-recognition of sovereignty and mutual non-denial of governing authority." This concept is inspired by the German experience. The relationship between East Germany and West Germany was primarily based on the Basic Treaty of 1972.Both sides used "supreme power" instead of"sovereignty"and distinguished between"sovereignty"and"governingauthority."

In the 1920s, a nationalist general, Chiang Kai-shek led a military campaign that defeated the warlords who controlled various parts of the country. At first, Mao and other communists joined the campaign against the warlords, with the ultimate goal of uniting the country.

The true effects were hidden in official accounts. People were afraid to criticize the Mao government. But, the people also could see the truth. The policy was eventually ended and Mao’s power significantly weakened.

Mao’s power was in decline by the end and four communist leaders (Gang of Four) were in control. In 1972, US President Richard Nixon visited China and met Mao, part of the “opening” of China to the West. Mao’s poor health meant Nixon mostly met Mao’s second in command.

Hua Guofeng was Mao’s chosen successor. Deng Xiaoping would soon be the one who had the true power. And, the shift to present-day China would firmly be in place.

Deng temporarily regained power toward the end of the Mao years, but the Gang of Four purged him from power once again. But, Mao’s death provided a window for him to come back, and the Gang of Four themselves were purged. Such are the ways of power.

He also worked to improve China’s relationship with world powers. He went abroad to meet President Carter in Washington D.C., signed a peace treaty with Japan, and approved relations with the Soviet Union. And, worked with the U.K. and Portugal to regain control of Chinese colonies (Hong Kong and Macau).

There were limits to the reforms during the Deng years. Bao Tong, a Chinese writer and activist wrotein an op-ed in 2015 that the economic reforms were unequal:

The upshot of Deng’s revolution was that those with significant power got significantly rich, those with modest power got modestly rich, and those with no power remained in poverty.Bao Tong

Deng has a mixed legacy. He is seen as the father of today’s China, with its role as a world economic power. But, it is still an authoritarian communist state politically, including with a horrible human rights record. And, the economic reforms included much corruption.

Mao also has a mixed legacy. He gained control of all of China, unifying it, and made it a world power. But, Mao not only ruled harshly but was behind two major “reforms” that caused horrible suffering and loss of life.
