ALT1: ... that G Affairs was presented at the project markets in Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, but was rejected because it was deemed unmarketable in China? Source: [3]
Overall: The main hook is approved, and the check reflects this – the sources seem to indicate it may have been for political reasons (which would make the hook a bit more interesting IMO, but it's fine as is). I'd propose removing the word "the" for ALT1 before "project markets" to make it grammatically correct for ALT1 – make that change, and it's approved as well. Great work on this!

Subsequently, Lee and the writer (Kurt Chiang) returned to revise the script to create a story with more Hong Kong elements. Two years later, when Lee thought he had successfully joined the Hong Kong - Asia Film Financing Forum, he was met with the response, "You guys cannot make it into the mainland Chinese market, it won't work."]
