Fake Disneyland in China?

I actually lol'd. I forgot the topic my sister showed me yesterday but it was on the news as well, and the president can only say that those are the "original creations" of Shijingshan Park.





According to the owner, that's not even supposed to be Donald Duck, Snow White and the seven dwarves, Shrek, Mickey, or any of the Disney characters. But when interviewed, even the people in the costumes say they are based on Disney characters. Whoops!

Japanese news cast feature an interview with the President of the company, who insists that it's not Mickey, but "a cat with really big ears". Errrr, okaaaaay...



I couldn't read Mandarin so I listened hard to what the guy said at the front part where he introduced Shijingshan's banner: "Going to Disneyland is too far, come to Shijingshan Park."

The hell? Grrrr.. Seriously, I find it an insult to the late Walt Disney. If I were him I'd jump out of my grave and go on a rampage.

Imitation has just gone up another level. -_-



I wonder what Disney will do (bigger question is what can they do), considering the park has already been made. It can't possibly cancel contract with China, since it is densely populated and will hold a lot of inflow.

Question lies on standing up for their own rights, or taking a chance on their profits. I hope Disney doesn't shut one eye and let that go lying down though. Disney forever! o/
