The highest grossing Hollywood films ever made in the history of cinema came from ideas that originated in China. For example:
1. STAR WARS Episodes I-VI is actually the Western adaptation of Legend & Return of the Condor Heroes (1959/1961). Where is the proof? If we substitute "Condor Heroes" for "Jedi Heroes", we get STAR WARS Ep I-VI. The original two-part story spans a total of 100 on-screen hours. To adapt it into about 12 hours of STAR WARS many things had to be cut and reshuffled. But the original ideas are there in Condor Heroes, all of it!
2. STAR WARS Episodes VII-IX is/will be the Western adaptation of Heaven Sword & Dragon Saber (1961). This is actually the sequel to Legend/Return of the Condor Heroes, and Disney is just continuing LucasArts' tradition of adapting the Condor Trilogy.
3. Avatar. Just simply look at the things James Cameron cooked up:
i. A Chinese dragon is shown on the Avatar main Flying Dragon Attack Ship:
ii. The natives on Pandora sport a long pony tail that is reminiscient of a hairstyle that was once popular in China:
