Introduction

Shaw Brothers Pictures International Limited (Chinese: 邵氏影业国际有限公司; Korean: 샤오 브라더스) is a Hong Kong film production company. In 1925, three Shaw brothers - Runje, Runme, and Runde founded Tianyi Film Company (also called "Unique") in Shanghai, and established a film distribution base in Singapore, where Runme and their youngest brother, Run Run Shaw, managed the precursor to the parent company, Shaw Organisation. Runme and Run Run took over the film production business of its Hong Kong-based sister company, Shaw & Sons Ltd, and in 1958 a new company, "Shaw Brothers," was set up. In 2011 Shaw Brothers was reorganized into the Clear Water Bay Land Company Limited. In 2014 Fosun International acquired its land for HK$1.5 billion.
