Our Path

Three stages, one thread

Every step of our expansion points to the same goal: making the value of premium content carry further along a longer chain.

Stage one · Building content capability

Centred on film investment, production and distribution, we built content judgement and production capability quickly by forming strategic partnerships with leading production companies and studios at home and abroad.

Stage two · Rebuilding distribution with platforms

By integrating Taopiaopiao, Phoenix CloudSmart and Lighthouse, we embedded ticketing, cinema operations and data services as industry infrastructure, moving marketing and distribution from experience-driven to data-driven.

Stage three · Amplifying content value

We extended into IP merchandising, live entertainment and series production so that the same content can be monetised across more scenarios, creating a revenue structure that does not depend on a single box office hit.

As part of the entertainment industry, we look beyond content to public value: helping more people walk into a cinema, giving the next generation of filmmakers an opportunity, and letting technology and capability create spillover effects across the industry.

Supporting young filmmakers

Through programmes such as "Plan A", which is open to young filmmakers worldwide, and the Torch Plan, we provide growth opportunities for the next generation of production talent.

Accessible cinema

We participate in building accessible cinema environments so that visually and hearing impaired audiences can enjoy a complete cinema experience.

Technology and capability spillover

We open ticketing systems, cinema operating platforms and data services to the industry, helping small and medium-sized cinemas and cinemas in Hong Kong and Macao improve operating efficiency.
