China's animation industry has seen rapid growth in recent years. Last year, 29 home-made animation films were screened in China.
The total box office of China's domestic animated films hit 646 million yuan in 2013, up 48 percent year-on-year, said Zhou Jiandong, an official with the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television.
The domestic animated films are expected to account for 10 percent of China's total box office over the next two to three years, compared with 5.2 percent last year, Zhou said during the event.
