Hao HONG 洪灝, CFA(@HAOHONG_CFA):A low-budget cartoon titled “Here Comes the Bull” is quickly surging to be the hottest meme in China. The movie was made for a few thousand yuan (a few hundred USD), reflecting the popular sarcasm in the Chinese A-share market. The animation is extremely crude. But the movie is embraced by the Chinese audience. Youngsters watch it and laugh, as a show of discontent with the burst of the semi bubble and a languishing stock market. Too bad - the movie has been pulled off the shelf. But it is destined to be a cult classic for years to come.
