China the cinema was built on the tiny disputed island in the South China sea. According to the official news Agency Xinhua, cinema Sansha Yinlong, an abundance of 4K projects and more than 200 seats, is the southernmost theater in the country, located on woody island, which China calls the island Yongxin, in the chain of the Paracel Islands.

"The cinema would show at least one movie every day, so residents and soldiers on the island Yongxin can enjoy movies simultaneously with the movie-goers across the country," said GU Xiaojing, General Manager of Hainan Media Group. The company also acquired two mobile projection unit for free screening of films on the surrounding Islands.
According to Chinese state media, about 1,100 people live on the island, woody. Beijing engaged in a series of territorial disputes in the South China sea, parts of which are claimed by China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Brunei, Vietnam and the Philippines. In 2012, China established the city of Sansha based on woody island, to control all of its claimed territory in this region, including the Spratly Islands, the Paracels, Macclesfield Bank and Scarborough Shoal.
Since then, Beijing has moved to promote tourism and development in the South China sea to assert that the territories are clearly Chinese. Cruises regularly depart the Hainan, going to the Islands of the South China sea, where Chinese tourists are involved in ceremonial activities, such as raising the country's flag and singing of the national anthem.
China also strongly voiceserver some Islands and expanded other areas with major land reclamation, turning the sandy beach on the island and equip them with airports, ports and weapons systems.
