Beyond cultural differences, the major structural barrier preventing Chinese films from achieving box office and influence breakthroughs in the international market is the weakness in overseas distribution channels and marketing systems. China lacks an independent global distribution network and professional teams, largely relying on co-productions or outright sales. As a result, purely domestic films rarely secure releases in mainstream foreign cinemas, leading to low visibility, poorly targeted promotion, and an inability to effectively reach overseas audiences.
