scmp: Marvel ‘insults China’ by making SHANG-CHI

Weibo is full of China Trolls (who works for China government), so China government clearly don't want Marvel to make the film.

However, when translated reports of the news reached Weibo, China’s Twitter-like service, the online community was unimpressed.

More infos in reddit: China hates the SHANG-CHI casting, so please go see the movie as many times as you can to support it.

I guess the film will be cancelled (as what China government is clearly requiring), but I hope Marvel won't back down

Anyway, what I want to say it that China government is hurting the creative freedom in Hollywood

i think you can budget around China if you're marvel.Casting a black woman in Little Mermaid certainly doesnt help China or Russia
