Director Chen Kaige was furious, and it happened in Berlin. Why was he angry? Because a netizen named Hu Ge parodied his movie "The Promise", creating a short film called "The Bloodbath Caused by a Bun". Through this short film, many viewers who were utterly confused after watching "The Promise" finally gained a deep understanding of the plot, and a large number of people who hadn't seen "The Promise" were motivated to watch the movie. On the internet, the download rate of "The Bloodbath Caused by a Bun" was even much higher than that of "The Promise" itself. Hence, Director Chen was enraged.
