    Great! Just what the USA needs. If China keeps buying up American companies we'll have Chinese as a 2nd language instead of Spanish. The US movie going public will see a big difference in the entertainment value by going to an AMC, etc.etc.

    Reading International (RDI) would also be a perfect candidate for Wanda, not only for its sizable >70% market share in Hawaii, and Angelika Film Center franchise (all contributing to RDI being #11 in US) but also for its #4 market share in Australia and #3 share in New Zealand AND its substantial developable real estate in all three countries – after all Wanda’s roots are real estate development.
