RealD Inc. announced an agreement to equip 100 screens across the
Womei Theater Chain in China with its 3D technology. RealD 3D

while the appetite for 3D by Chinese moviegoers remains among the
highest in the world,” said Edman Chan, general manager of Asia
cinema at RealD. “China is the most populous nation in the world
and these installations of RealD 3D across the Womei Theater Chain
will further broaden the availability of RealD’s realistic and
immersive theatre experience.”
Womei Theater Chain currently operates four cinema locations with
33 auditoriums across China. In the next five years, the company
plans to open a total of 200 cinemas totaling 1,000 screens.
