Guess what? 🎉 China's kicking off the Year of the Snake with a bang at the box office! On the very first day of the Spring Festival, tons of people flocked to cinemas, pushing ticket sales to new heights.
By 11:58 a.m. on Wednesday, movie revenues during the holiday had already soared past 1.6 billion yuan (that's over $220 million)! 🤯 Thanks to box office tracker Dengta Data for the numbers.
So, what's everyone watching? Six awesome films just dropped for the holiday season:
- \"The Legend of the Condor Heroes: The Great Hero\"
- \"Ne Zha 2\"
- \"Detective Chinatown 1900\"
- \"Creation of the Gods II: Demon Force\"

The first four movies each raked in over 200 million yuan in pre-sale tickets alone, making this the most successful pre-sale period ever! 🏆
From epic myths and martial arts adventures to sci-fi thrills and animated fun, there's something for everyone. Compared to last year's lineup of mostly comedies and dramas, this year's variety is off the charts. Moviegoers are hyped, and we can't blame them! 🍿
