Used in the 2017 videogame PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, in which players start playing by parachuting and will become boxes when they lose the game. So becoming a box shortly after landing means losing a game in the beginning.

Frequently "landing to become a box", being killed by cheats not long after the game starts: even many pro gamers often are pushed past their psychological limits by this.

頻頻「落地成盒」，在遊戲開始沒多久就被外掛殺死，很多職業玩家也時常為此「心態爆炸」。

The name of Trump, 川普 (Chuānpǔ), remoulded into a sarcastic pseudo-Chinese name.
It originated from his campaign slogan "make America great again" and a humorous opinion amongst netizens that Trump is in fact an undercover agent for China to destroy the United States, as his various actions (and inactions) as the US president actually tarnish the image of the US more so than embellish it, and are thereby "making China great".
建國／建国 (jiànguó, “to build/found the nation”) is a given name with patriotic undertones, commonly given to someone born around the Founding of the People's Republic of China (1949), such as Trump.

This idiom-like phrase may be interpreted as a pun on the Chinese leadership, with “ocean” (海) referencing 中南海 (Zhōngnánhǎi, “Zhongnanhai; the central headquarters for the Communist Party of China”), and “roaring waves” (濤) referencing 胡錦濤 (Hú Jǐntāo, the Chinese president at the time), making this translate to “watching the central government and listening to President Hu”, something a Chinese ally would do.

What are 'the things which men consider right?' Kindness on the part of the father, and filial duty on that of the son; gentleness on the part of the elder brother, and obedience on that of the younger; righteousness on the part of the husband, and submission on that of the wife; kindness on the part of elders, and deference on that of juniors; with benevolence on the part of the ruler, and loyalty on that of the minister - these ten are the things which men consider to be right.

From Chinese scholar Tian Feilong's editorial Patriots Administering Hong Kong: A New Birth of Hong Kong's Democracy published on Ming Pao

The Central Government determined neither to create rubber stamps nor "loyal rubbish", but rather virtuous and talented patriots.

Zhōngyāng juéxīn dǎzào de bùshì xiàngpítúzhāng huò zhōngchéng de fèiwù, érshì xiánnéng de àiguózhě.

中央決心打造的不是橡皮圖章或忠誠的廢物，而是賢能的愛國者。

2021 December 21, Central News Agency, 香港立法會選舉／改變忠誠廢物局面 親北京新舊建制派互補 (HK LegCo Election: Changing the Situation of "Loyal Rubbish", New and Old Pro-Beijing Pro-establishment Complements Each Other):

Under the careful planning of Beijing, observers believe that many freshmen and a variety of people from different interest group will enter the current parliament. Whether they will become new members of the pro-establishment camp or are only "loyal rubbish" should be waited.

Zài Běijīng fāngmiàn de “jīngxīn cèhuà” xià, wàijiè xiàngxìn jiāng huì yǒu hěnduō xīnrén jí bùtóng jièbié de rén jìnrù běnjiè yìhuì, dàn tāmen dāngxuǎn hòu shìfǒu huì chéngwéi jiànzhì zhènyíng de shēnglìjūn, yìhuò zhǐshì “zhōngchéng fèiwù” de jìchéngzhě, qiě shìmùyǐdài.

在北京方面的「精心策劃」下，外界相信將會有很多新人及不同界別的人進入本屆議會，但他們當選後是否會成為建制陣營的生力軍，抑或只是「忠誠廢物」的繼承者，且拭目以待。

Should one carefully read Tian Feilong's article, it is not hard to understand that "loyal rubbish" is not targeted against the pro-establishment camp.
