Christie® is pleased to announce that Suning Cinema, owned by Chinese electronics retail giant Suning Commerce Group, has deployed its state-of-the-art cinema projection systems in two newly opened multiplexes in Nanjing and Xuzhou to offer movie-goers the ultimate 3D viewing experience.
The luxurious 13-screen Nanjing Suning Cinema has been equipped with Christie CP2208 3DLP® digital cinema projectors capable of displaying DCI, 3D, High Frame Rate (HFR), alternative and local content. It is the cinema chain’s first multiplex in the city to feature VIP screening rooms, concierge services, and customized events for discerning patrons seeking a new movie-going experience.
Xuzhou Suning Cinema, on the other hand, is a meticulously-designed multiplex made up of eight screens and 1,500 seats that caters to patrons of all ages. At the heart of this facility is the advanced Christie 6P laser projection system installed in its flagship auditorium boasting an 18-meter screen and 260 seats. The system comprises Christie’s scalable laser illumination platform, consisting of a Christie Freedom 6P RGB laser projection system with rack-mounted laser modules producing the brightest images, the purest colors and the best 3D movie experiences. Other auditoriums in the multiplex are fitted with the Christie Solaria™ Series CP2220, CP2230 and CP4230 digital cinema projectors.
A spokesperson from Suning Cinema said, “We are pleased to deploy a range of Christie cinema projection systems in our two newest multiplexes in Nanjing and Xuzhou, and this is a testimony of the strong relationship and trust that we have built with Christie.

Our Christie Solaria Series digital cinema projectors is the perfect choice in meeting exhibitors’ demands for 2D and 3D presentations, delivering value with reliability and low total cost of ownership.

We also look forward to a stronger strategic relationship with Suning Cinema in the near future.”
