Norinco QBZ-97

Chinese PLA soldiers are armed with Norinco QBZ-97 rifles at the Ark launch docks in Cho Ming, Tibet. Due to the movie being filmed in Canada, the 5.56x45mm export version was used instead of the 5.8x42mm domestic version.

Norinco Type 97B

One of the Chinese PLA soldiers at the Ark docks in Cho Ming can be seen armed with a Norinco QBZ-97B carbine. Since the movie was filmed in Canada, the production crew utilized Canadian film armorers who had Norinco QBZ-type rifles, a weapon not commonly found in the US due to import restrictions.
