Abstract: The globalization of Chinese films has undergone four phases. The process of globalization, on the whole, has been rather slow, constrained by its different historical contexts, reflecting its respective motivations and cultural psyche. Before 1949, there were only a few individual cases of Chinesemovie export. Between 1949 and 1966, the Chinese movie was characterized by being introverted of the socialist economy. Since the 1980s, the Chinese movie has been internationally popular but nationally unpopular. Now is an historical opportunity as well as an historical mission for Chinese movies to globalize.
