Go put your positive reviews on MetaCritic.
The game is being review bombed by the mob.

Nah, the current Metacritic user score seems fair (about a 7.5 out of 10 on average), actually fairer than the critic review score IMO.

BM: Wukong is a good game, but nothing more. It has some known technical, optimization, visual, and game design flaws, which makes the game not excellent and far from perfection. For example, I rated it a 7 out of 10.

However, despite its flaws, it sets a good foundation and AAA debut for Game Science overall.

It's been targeted. A lot of new accounts are scoring zeros

I don't think so, the same happens with many meaningless, biased, or simply extreme or exaggerated user reviews in the other direction and they are rating it with 10, 9, or 8. Conspiranoid theories apart, I don't see anything strange when you know how this Metacritic review system works with ratings ranging from 0 to 10 in a game as popular and over-hyped.

I didn't suggest to put a 10, only to be fair.

These should be ignored but I don't know if MetaCritic will do anything to be fair with Wukong.

People, yes. "Gamers" aren't the only ones buying games.

People can review bomb the game there because no proof of purchase is required. This game hit a nerve.

The current Metacritic user score seems pretty fair, indeed. It's always a matter of statistics and big numbers. I wouldn't be much concerned about extreme ratings. The current user score picture seems accurate and fair: about a 7.5 out of 10 on average, generally favorable.
