850M$ revenue on 70M$ budget sounds a huge success.

Wow, that's incredible!
Banning foreign games and protecting your domestic game market so your people will desperately buy anything you give them works, what a shock!
one of the most popular games in China is PUBG, made by a Korean company.
Stop spreading nonsense.
You should look into just how restrictive Chinese Steam is. You should also look into how any online game operating in China (like PUBG) needs to be offered by a joint-venture with a Chinese firm.
That's a good point but the OPs simplistic comment is just reductive and is just stirring the pot of casual racism/nationalism
@strongarm @DdCno1 Insulting China by virtue of China's government objectively being awful isn't the same as insulting Chinese people, that's completely not racist, if anything it's the opposite because you're raising awareness to the issues the people there are facing. China deserves to be insulted, it's fucking trash beaten out only by North Korea and maybe Russia, and the people living there deserve better.
Please.
Have you lived in China for any amount of time?
It's an open-air prison administered by the CCP.
The Chinese people deserve so much better.
china has fewer prisoners than the USA.
Yes! So much fewer!
Because they shoot them instead.
The CCP killed more Chinese than Genghis Khan, they're an occupying force, we pushed the Japanese out only to leave them to be conquered by someone almost as bad.

America is less free than China, literally.
The exact number of executions carried out in China is not publicly disclosed, as the country treats execution data as a state secret. However, human rights organizations estimate that China executes more people annually than the rest of the world combined.
According to estimates by organizations like Amnesty International, the number of executions in China is believed to be in the thousands each year, but precise figures are difficult to verify.

At least our statistics are available...
At least they get a trial... In the US "officer involved deaths" are the preferred method of state execution.
The best estimates I'm seeing are from https://worldcoalition.org/pays/china/. They are almost certainly inflated, but the last official count was back in 2009 by amnesty international which counted 1718 instances. (Compared to world coalition's estimate of 8000 for the same year.) that puts the per capita death rate at ~1-3 per million. Police/extrajudicial killings in China are almost unheard of.
Police killings alone (which it should be noted are also statistics which are also not publicly available) were estimated to be ~1300 last year putting the lower bound per capita death rate at 4 per million. Capital punishment in the US is about as unheard of as extrajudicial killings.
Comparing "apples to apples" the US kills ~400% more of its citizens annually, but neither government is overly transparent about it.
"...but if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, ya ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow... cause ya know it's gonna be..."
Notice how the list mentions that Uyghur and other ethnic minority slaves are not included in the number of Chinese prisoners.
