Is Universal Studios China on its way?

A Universal Studios theme park in Beijing appears one more step closer to happening, according to a Chinese report.
Blooloop found a report from Shanghai Securities News that officials from the National Development and Reform Commission in Tongzhou District in Beijing have filed an application to begin construction on the park in the fourth quarter of this year.
The project's budget is estimated at US$2 billion (RMB12 billion). Demolition is underway at the site, and the report says that construction would be completed by January 2018.
Creative is trying to keep it quiet. Expect a construction period similar to Singapore, except this time around they'll have more control over what happens in the rest of the resort.
No truth ..then we have the official announcement from Beijing or central government, i believe the negotiation is on going. If not, it would have been release at IAAPA 2013...
Seriously? Do you have any source for this?
I'm hearing the project is a go, without a New York or Jurassic Park area. Despicable Me/Minions/Super Silly Fun Land and Potter should open with the park.
Universal Studios Beijing is going ahead!
These reports have been published in March 2013:
...the concept of speculation after another 1.2 months, a Universal Studios project has been submitted to the National Development and Reform Commission, the message, it set off a round of speculation climax, due to the Universal Studios project high probability Tongzhou land revaluation will bring leading shares of Wuyi (000,797) soaring more than 20% in just a few days......stocks have also appeared more substantial rise in the short term is expected to the concept of Universal Studios will continue to be active again...Source:...the current view of the theme parks this year's investment plan is still in the 'project' stage, whether ultimately implemented yet to approval of relevant departments., however, before the media from Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission has learned that the Beijing Universal Studios theme park project is expected to get the approval of the State Council in the near future.

Yes that is true... However, it is not clear whether Universal will find another city or cancel the plans to build a park in China
