Liangjiang International Movie City is located in the Longxing Industrial Park of Chongqing's Liangjiang New Area. The 120,000-sqaure-meter city is just one hour's drive away from downtown Chongqing and 20 minutes from local airports. The reproduced Republic of China era buildings, which echo many of Chongqing's unique landscapes, are ideal locations for shooting.

Cui Can also stressed that the company will invest over 40 million yuan ($6.19 million) on an internet drama to shoot in Liangjiang International Movie City.
