Blu-ray from China not readable on Sony S6700 Blu-ray player

[briercreek]

This disc turned out to be a cheap Chinese copy from eBay. I've already gotten a refund because it wouldn't load on my Sony S6700 Blu-ray player that does read a lot of older DVDs that are not in the USA region. Of course, blu-rays are a different story.

Does anyone know why this won't read? It does show a disc present, with the name of the film. If I google, will I find a way to make the S6700 region free?

I'll have to toss this, but I wanted to keep it for Mandarin practice as it came with Chinese subtitles. That was the first hint it was fake. That and the poorly printed disc label and packaging.
