Christie® is
pleased to announce that Big World Cineplex has chosen its state-of-the-art RGB
laser cinema projection systems for its flagship multiplex located in Wuxi, a
prominent historical and cultural city in China’s Jiangsu province. Known
as Wuxi Big World Cineplex, the multiscreen cinema is conveniently located in
the city’s downtown area and is known for its luxuriously furnished auditoriums
and plush seats. It is equipped with 10 screens, out of which nine are powered
by Christie’s RGB pure laser projection
systems including the
CP2320-RGB,
CP2315-RGB, and the
China-specific CP2310-RGB/c that excel in image quality, operational lifetime
and overall cost. These projectors have a brightness between 10,000 and 20,000
lumens, feature 2K resolution, an expanded color gamut, and contrast ratios
that exceed the DCI specification.
A
spokesperson from Wuxi Big World Cineplex commented, “Christie is renowned for its
innovative projection systems that enhance the cinema experience and deliver
value to exhibitors. We are excited to adopt Christie’s 2K RGB pure laser
projection systems for nine screens in our multiplex to deliver a highly
engaging cinematic experience to movie-goers.”
James
Li, executive director for China, Cinema, Christie, added, “We are delighted
that Wuxi Big World Cineplex, a longstanding Christie customer, has chosen our
RGB pure laser projectors to replace its aging lamp-based systems for nine of
its auditoriums in this flagship multiplex. Not only will audiences enjoy
stunning onscreen visuals, the projectors also offer the lowest total cost of
ownership in their class while delivering quality and performance that are
superior to any other illumination technology.”
The
Christie CP2320-RGB and CP2315-RGB benefit from
Christie
Real|Laser™ illumination technology, which provides exhibitors with more
than 75,000 hours of optimal performance before dropping to 50% original
brightness. Featuring a patented sealed optical path, Christie Real|Laser
provides unmatched long-term stability and reliability. Both models also deliver
more than 95 percent of Rec. 2020 color space without filtering or color
correction. The rich, deep and intense colors and contrast create astounding
visuals for audiences to enjoy, while delivering significant operational
efficiencies to cinema owners.
Designed for smaller screens, the Christie
CP2310-RGB/c is a high-value RGB pure laser cinema projector specifically
developed for the Chinese market to offer exhibitors an advanced, yet
affordable digital cinema option. Equipped with CineLife™ electronics and a
highly efficient laser light source, the CP2310-RGB/c can project up to 10,000
DCI lumens of brightness, achieve greater than 90 percent of the Rec. 2020
color space, and has a 2000:1 contrast ratio for amazing cinematic experiences.
Christie’s
RGB pure laser projectors featuring Real|Laser illumination technology have been embraced by exhibitors around the world
as the perfect replacements for lamp-based projection systems and new
installations. In Asia, major cinema chains in Australia, China, Japan, India, Indonesia,
Philippines, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam have deployed these systems
in their mainstream auditoriums.
