> You also could never afford to piss America off, which is why every other protagonist in hollywood movies is some Tom Cruise lookalike who combats people who speak English in a broken Russian accent.

This is different tho. You can produce a movie that pisses off people, and still have it play in theatres.

If you make a movie that pisses of the Chinese government, not necessarily the people, then that movie won't even be shown in China.

China pissed off the US so much they blacklisted Huawei, and threatens anyone working with it.
