Wang's growing collection of U.S. entertainment businesses includes AMC Theaters (which is swallowing up Carmike Cinemas (CKEC)), movie studio Legendary Entertainment and a recent deal to buy Dick Clark Productions, which produces the Golden Globes and other awards.
He told CNNMoney in September that he still wants to buy one of Hollywood's "Big Six" studios, which includes the likes of 20th Century Fox (owned by Rupert Murdoch's 21st Century Fox (FOX)) and Warner Bros (owned by CNN parent Time Warner (TWX)).
Wang said at the weekend that the objections from Congress were just one view among many.
"I think we need to wait until after Mr. Trump takes office to see what his attitude is toward Chinese entertainment companies," he said, adding that Trump "needs to understand" that Hollywood movies are relying on the Chinese market for growth.

Trump's position on Chinese investment in the U.S. isn't clear. His campaign rhetoric focused mainly on the trade in manufactured goods between the world's two largest economies, accusing China of taking American jobs by not playing by the rules.
The president-elect has threatened to label Beijing a currency manipulator and slap tariffs of as much as 45% on Chinese products coming into the U.S., raising the risk of a trade war.
But experts say there are more pressing concerns like China's restrictions on foreign investment -- including in media and entertainment -- and policies that tend to favor domestic firms.

Even before his inauguration next month, Trump has already strained the relationship between Washington and Beijing by questioning the U.S. government's long-standing approach to the sensitive topic of Taiwan.

The deal was confirmed on Sunday following a memorandum of understanding signed in June. It is expected to help Iran modernize and expand its aging commercial aircraft fleet after decades of international sanctions. Boeing’s last airplane deliveries to Iran were 747 jumbos in 1977.

An unnamed Iranian official told Reuters the deal was subject in part to further agreements on financing, adding that the money from the deal would not pass through the US financial system.

The new contract will support almost 100,000 jobs in the US aerospace industry, Boeing said.

The pact keeps Boeing in the race with Europe’s Airbus, which in January agreed to sell 118 aircraft to Iran in a deal valued at about $25 billion at list price.

According to a Reuters’ source, Iran’s national carrier IranAir is at the "very final stage" of completing a deal with Airbus. It is expected to involve a first batch of 50-60 jets, and will be finalized in the next couple of days, the official said.

Iran is a critical market for Boeing in its rivalry with Airbus, a defense analyst at Lexington Institute, Loren Thompson told Bloomberg.

"Boeing can’t compete with Airbus if it can’t sell to places like Iran and China," Thompson said. "Selling to Iran is a business imperative for Boeing."

In a statement on its website on Saturday, China's Commerce Ministry said it will temporarily ban imports of coal from North Korea as part of a UN Security Council resolution that has the goal of deterring Pyongyang from pursuing its nuclear weapons program.

“To implement United Nations Security Council Resolution 2321, according to the People’s Republic of China’s Foreign Trade Law, imports of coal produced in North Korea temporarily will be stopped,” said the statement, which effectively curtails 557 million pounds of coal or $700 million compared to 2015 sales.

North Korea has been under UN sanctions since 2006 over its nuclear and ballistic missile tests.

The sanctions imposed in late November aim to cut North Korea's annual export revenue by 25%. A key part of the UN resolution is limiting the sale of North Korean coal to China, the only known country that currently buys it – to around 7.5 million tonnes a year (or $400 million, whichever is lower). That represents a drop of about 60%. Coal is North Korea's top export earner and one of its only sources of hard currency. The resolution by the 15-member Security Council also bans the export of North Korean copper, nickel, silver, zinc, as well as statues which are mainly exported to African countries, according to Reuters.

Up to the end of October, China imported 18.6 million tonnes of coal from the totalitarian state, a nearly 13% rise from 2015.

The three-week ban will remain in effect until the end of the year. Coal shipped before Dec. 11 will be allowed to enter China.

There is speculation that suppressing the amount of coal imported by China will keep a fire lit under the price of coking coal, which has tripled in value since July and quadrupled over the past year – though recently come off the boil.

MINING.com reported that Chinese coal imports more than doubled from a year ago, to 27 million tonnes worth $1.7 billion during the month November. According to Asia Times, the total volume of coal imports for the first 11 months is up 9.2% compared to last year.

Trade figures released on Thursday reported by Asia Times also show China imported just under 92 million tonnes of iron ore in November, up 13.8% month on month and the third highest volumes on record.
