Old residents of Yangchuan City were no strangers to Changhe Cinema, it being one of the first movie theaters in Yangchuan City. Over twenty years ago, with only three cinemas in Yangchuan, Changhe Cinema was among them.
It boasted two large screening rooms, one auditorium, and four small screening rooms, which at the time was considered a 'super luxurious' setup. Even by today's standards, it would rank well among the dozens of cinemas across Yangchuan City.
It was said that in the early 90s, Changhe Cinema hosted many of the city government's meetings and celebratory events, big and small.
When one mentioned Changhe Cinema, the older generation would immediately think of the venerable state-owned enterprise, Changhe Color TV Factory.
That's because Changhe Cinema was a subsidiary of the Changhe Color TV Factory, built as an employee benefit and a symbol of corporate image.
