The Minxin FilmCompany zh c or the China Sun FilmCompany was one of the earliest movie studios in the history of Chinese cinema. History Established in 1922 in Hong Kong by director and actor Lai Man wai , the so called Father of Hong Kong Cinema, with his brother Lai Pak Hoi . Minxin eventually moved to Shanghai in 1926 after economic turmoil in Hong Kong made production there near impossible. By the end of the 1920s, however, the company was in dire financial straits, as it struggled to compete with the much larger Mingxing FilmCompany as well as other studios, such as the Shaw Brothers Tianyi FilmCompany . It was ultimately saved by Lai s old friend Luo Mingyou, who suggested a pooling of resources to create a new company the famous Lianhua FilmCompany Lianhua Studios . Thus, in 1930, Minxin FilmCompany was absorbed into the newly formed Lianhua. By 1936, however, Lai split off from the now declining Lianhua in control of Lianhua s Studio No. 1. This studio then formed the basis of a newly independent Minxin FilmCompany.
