Year of the Snake Free Chinese Movie


In SUCCESSOR, Shen and Ma play a high-powered couple that own a successful business and are determined to groom their son Ji-ye to take over the company. Worried that he will turn into a useless rich kid, they decide to raise him in something resembling poverty so that Ji-ye could develop qualities such as hard work, knowledge, careful budgeting, physical fitness, and perseverance.

Directed by Fei Yan and Da-Mo Peng and co-stars Shen Teng and Ma Li — the comedic duo behind previous smash hits “Goodbye, Mr. Loser” (2015) and “Hello, Mr. Billionaire” (2018), “the film has also touched a nerve in China with its tale of wealthy, controlling “tiger parents” that fuses elements of the hit HBO show “Succession” with the 1998 comedy feature “The Truman Show”- Sixthtone.com
