‘Crazy Rich Asians’ is a flop in China

‘Crazy Rich Asians’, Warner Bros’ breakout summer hit, was a dud in China. Warner Bros said the acclaimed romantic comedy, which earned $173 million (Dh635.3 million) in the US, debuted in China with just $1.2 million. John M Chu’s Singapore-set film took months to secure a release date in China, a delay attributed to the film’s depiction of wealthy Chinese Singaporeans.
