Crude Chinese Animation Sparks Crypto Frenzy as Meme Coin Surges
The film 'Bull Run' has become an unlikely sensation in China's entertainment and crypto circles. The animated movie, released on August 5, tells the story of a calf who befriends a lark and is drawn into a dream world. Despite its crude visuals and stuttering animation, the film gained widespread attention online due to its 'impressive achievement' of earning just over 7,000 yuan at the box office in 9 days.
The film's production company, Dalian Jingyuan Culture, Film and Television Media Co., Ltd., was initially a renovation company that pivoted to animation. The film's producers claimed that the 'dragon mark review' only checks content compliance, not whether the film is good or of high quality.
The film's success has spawned a wave of Memes and derivative works, with some comparing it to the popular Meme Pepe. The 'Bull Run' Meme coin launched on August 14 and its market cap surged past $12 million in just one day, reaching nearly $30 million by August 17.
