The rise of China often becomes the front page headlines in the Western media, and the Chinese movie market, which has entered the "10 billion yuan club", is no exception. In addition to the entry of Chinese capital into the Hollywood market, the commercial elements of mature European and American movies have also become a mirror of the Chinese movies. Known as "Hollywood-style new style thriller" Chinese film "Tracking Octopus Paul" is becoming the meat and potatoes in the eyes of the foreign media, Europe and the United States, a number of media outlets have to "Tracking Octopus Paul" will soon be released "under the title of" report, which the world-renowned U.S. "Forbes" magazine is in the "The Octopus". Forbes magazine is in the "a superpower want to" in the topic, focusing on the promotion of "tracking octopus Paul".

The foreign media is optimistic about "Tracking Octopus Paul", mainly focusing on two points of view: First, the story of "Tracking Octopus Paul" is fascinating, Hollywood-style thriller structure meets the needs of the international film market, China's traditional film lacks such a context, and "Tracking Octopus Paul" opens up a new window; second, "Octopus Paul" elements are timely to join the "Octopus Paul". Secondly, the timely addition of the "Octopus Paul" element makes the marketing of "Tracking Octopus Paul" full of commercial mystery, which is expected to create a successful box office, Forbes Magazine praised: "Xiao Jiang, a Chinese director with a keen sense of business, has given the 'World Cup' an octopus tentacle to anticipate the the birth of a box-office legend, which is a smart move."

The foreign media mentioned that the infamous Paul the Octopus is now enjoying a comfortable retirement in his hometown in Germany, where a Chinese film company used a body double for "Tracking Paul the Octopus," a movie in which the octopus and the real Paul resemble brothers. Since the movie involves gambling and real people, it makes sense to introduce Paul the Octopus to simplify the plot. So a new fear is spreading in the foreign media - "I'm afraid the success of this movie will keep Paul's agent Chris Davis so busy that I'm afraid they'll have to start taking phone interviews left and right."
