Summary
This page appears to be part of a House Oversight Committee report detailing Chinese influence operations within the American entertainment industry. It discusses the phenomenon of self-censorship in Hollywood, the acquisition of major US studios (AMC, Legendary) by Chinese conglomerate Dalian Wanda, and the use of commercial interests to exercise 'sharp power.' The text specifically cites actor Richard Gere's exclusion from films due to his support for Tibet and the Dalai Lama. While the document bears a House Oversight stamp common in various document dumps, this specific page does not explicitly mention Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, or their associates.
