The Ne Zha 2 animation continues to break records, reaching a total gross of $1.69 billion with a $275.3 million weekend

This animation not only remained at the top of the charts, but also set a new sales record for IMAX cinemas. “Ne Zha 2” grossed $22 million in Chinese IMAX cinemas over the weekend, a 21% increase from the previous week.

But this is just the beginning for this animation, as it continues to sell and aims to reach a $2 billion gross

In the second place of the Chinese box office was the film “Detective Chinatown 1900” with a $26 million gross, bringing its total to $443.8 million
