Nandu News reporter Liu Yifan On January 29, Douyin announced an exclusive cooperation with Stephen Chow on micro-short dramas. The two parties will jointly develop and operate the "9527 Theater". The first season of the first work "Golden Pig and Jade Leaves" is expected to be released. It was launched on Douyin in May this year.
The number "9527" has been mentioned many times in Stephen Chow's movies, including "Tang Bo Hu Spots Autumn Fragrance" and "Truy to School". The characters played by Stephen Chow are all given this number. "9527" is not Stephen Chow's exclusive meme, but a well-known allusion to Hong Kong films. Chow Yun-fat's number in "Prison" and Ronald Cheng's police number in "The Power of the Dragon" all used this set of numbers. This group of numbers is a homonym of the Cantonese proverb, which means "loser" and has the meaning of joking and self-deprecation.
