This festive season features six exciting film releases: The Legend of the Condor Heroes: The Great Hero, Ne Zha 2, Detective Chinatown 1900, Creation of the Gods II: Demon Force, Operation Hadal, and Boonie Bears: Future Reborn. The first four films each surpassed 200 million yuan in pre-sale ticket sales, marking the most successful pre-sale period ever!
