Wulong Scenic Area said it signed a deal with producers of the movie in October. The movie's producers promised to show the logo of the scenic spot on the big screen as a product placement. However, the logo is nowhere to be found.

Huang Daosheng, general manager of Chongqing Wulong Karst Tourism Group, the company that operates the scenic spot, said that it will sue both Paramount Pictures and the movie's associated Chinese production company, 1905 Internet Technology Co Ltd of Beijing, requiring them to take responsibility.
