Moutai Thanks the Hit Movie
Wolf Warrior Ⅱ for Free Advertising
Chinese box office hit Wolf Warrior Ⅱ has received a thankyou letter from the president of China Kweichow Moutai (Group) Distillery Co., Ltd, the country's most famous brand of liquor, because of the scenes where the hero drank Moutai liquor in the movie.
The movie, which premiered (首映) on July 27,2017, tells the story of a former Chinese People's Liberation Army soldier protecting Chinese citizens and local factory workers in an African war zone.
The patriotic (爱国的) emotions have proven popular with audiences. By the end of September, Wolf Warrior Ⅱ had earned more than 5.6 billion yuan, breaking China's alltime box office record, set last year by Hong Kong comedy The Mermaid. Wu Jing, 43, both starred in and directed Wolf Warrior Ⅱ, whose prequel (前传) earned 525 million yuan in 2015.
On August 7, Yuan Renguo, president of Kweichow Moutai, congratulated Wu Jing on his success in an open letter on the company's website. "The movie has hit a new record and become a phenomenon," Yuan wrote. "The movie is now synonymous (相同的) with patriotism. Your free advertising of Moutai in the movie has once more allowed this famous Chinese brand to impress the world."
Yuan also added that the company had organized screenings of the film for its more than 30,000 employees, which improved their feelings of nationalism and "company cohesion (凝聚力)".
Many moviegoers also said they were impressed by the patriotic plot of Wolf Warrior Ⅱ. Tong Yemeng, a 32yearold office worker from Beijing, told Sixth Tone that she watched the film because of positive reviews from her colleagues and on the social media. "I felt so moved and proud of my country when I saw Wu Jing waving the national flag in the war zone," she said. "It showed our increasing national power."
