In this Dec. 12, 2016 photo, a man walks out from a main screening hall of the Digital Cinema in Zhuolu county in north China’s Hebei province. The brightly-decorated 3-D cinema in this town outside Beijing is showing the latest Chinese and Hollywood films, to row after row of empty red seats. So few people come to watch films here that the theater manager rents out the halls to travelling sales companies or music teachers. (Andy Wong/Associated Press)
