The success of Kung Fu Soccer is already cemented in the history book.
A film is deemed a financial success when its total net revenue generated across worldwide theatrical runs, streaming, digital sales, and merchandising exceeds its total costs. In theory, studios typically receive only about half of box office ticket sales , a common industry rule of thumb is that a movie’s worldwide gross much reach 2.5 to 3 times its production budget to simply break even.
With a budget of roughly 380 Million RMB ($53 Million USD) at the time of production, Kung Fu Soccer, as of July 22nd has surpassed 1.66 Billion RMB ($245+ Million USD) at the box office - making it a financial success! What’s even more impressive is it has only debuted domestically and has yet to reach international markets.

The end of episode 35 was somewhat ambiguous for me 🤨, why Simu ended things with Duan Xu and left him like…
Once again I think she was self-sacrificing, she knows she’s not good for his health, the man is literally dying every time they exchange senses.
She wants him, but he doesn’t belong in her world, he’s a fragile human with a huge heart; Duan Xu with his sacrificing personality, knows no bounds and will keep exchanging until his last breath.
Simu: “What is not truly mine, will never be mine.”💔

Well played, Arthur!!👏
She does make a statement at her father’s tomb, “Even without the Spirits Lantern, I can still win.”
So, I’m assuming she is going to trade the lantern for Duan Xu’s antidote.
She wants him, but he doesn’t belong in her world, he’s a fragile human with a huge heart; Duan Xu with his sacrificing personality, knows no bounds and will keep exchanging until his last breath.
Simu: “What is not truly mine, will never be mine.”💔
An actor who can evoke the kind of disdain and hatred I’m feeling for his character is worth praise in my book!🙌
