Beijing Pangushi Investment Co Ltd last week demanded changes to
the film because it said Paramount did not meet its obligations
to feature its property in the movie. The Beijing firm said it
was revoking permission to show its buildings in "Age of
Extinction," which is expected to become one of the
highest-grossing movies of the year.
On Monday, a Paramount spokeswoman said the issues had been
resolved without any edits to the film and the movie will debut
worldwide as scheduled on Friday. Paramount is a unit of Viacom
Inc.
The Beijing company, in a statement on its website on Monday,
said it had been in touch with Paramount and both sides
"expressed willingness to suitably resolve the issue of
screening the film in China."
The parties reached an understanding after friendly
consultations, Beijing Pangushi said.
