Li Lin-founded Future Capital backs Stephen Chow film with RMB 380 million budget
Future Capital, founded by Huobi founder Li Lin, is among the main producers of Stephen Chow’s Kung Fu Women’s Soccer; its investment amount was not disclosed, and reported box office has exceeded RMB 500 million.
Fact Check
All four sources consistently report that Future Capital, founded by Huobi founder Li Lin, is one of the main producers of Stephen Chow's 'Kung Fu Women's Soccer,' with an undisclosed investment amount and a total production budget of ~RMB 380 million. The Odaily source confirms box office exceeding RMB 500 million. The claim traces to an original NetEase article, which clarifies Future Capital is a financial co-investor among 19 producers (the first/main producer being Chow's own Star Overseas) — consistent with 'among the main producers.' Confidence is medium rather than high because corroboration originates from a single NetEase report and the film industry / box-office figures come from crypto-focused media rather than official box-office authorities.

Future Capital Investment Management Co., founded by Huobi founder Li Lin, is one of the main producers of Stephen Chow’s new film Kung Fu Women’s Soccer, according to reports including NetEase News.
