Phim hoạt hình Trung Quốc 'Niulai' bị gỡ một phần khỏi rạp chiếu, đồng meme 'Niulai' tăng mạnh trên BNB Chain

The ME News report states that on August 16 (UTC+8), Dalian, the hometown of the producer of the Chinese-made abstract animated film "Niu Lai," has completely halted screenings and removed the film from all local theaters. Local cinemas said they received notice that the film was pulled due to poor quality and concerns over its impact on the city's image. However, "Niu Lai" has not been fully withdrawn from cinemas nationwide; most other cities in China continue to screen the film normally today, with many theaters explicitly stating they have not received any official notice to remove it, and tickets for multiple days—even up to a week ahead—are still available on ticketing platforms. Online screenshots claim that nationwide new screenings will cease starting August 17 (existing showings may continue), but this claim has not been confirmed by official sources or most cinema chains. "Niu Lai" remains in wide release, with box office revenue surging from an initial few thousand yuan to several million yuan. According to Lantern Professional Edition, the film "Niu Lai" has entered the top 10 of China's 2026 domestic animated film box office rankings, with current earnings at RMB 4.648 million, ranking ninth behind "Shuke Beita: The Miniaturized Humans" at RMB 6.732 million. According to GMGN data, the Meme coin "Niu Lai" on BNB Chain remains highly active, with a 24-hour trading volume of $37.5 million. Its market cap is currently $16.4 million, up 223% in 24 hours, but down nearly 45% from today’s high of $29 million. BlockBeats reminds users that Meme coins typically have no real utility and exhibit high price volatility—invest with caution. (Source: BlockBeats)
