Hey there, movie fans! π₯ Have you heard about Ne Zha II, the latest awesome animated movie from China? It’s taking the world by storm! π
As of February 17, Ne Zha II has earned over 12 billion yuan (that’s about $1.66 billion)! π° This makes it one of the top 10 highest-grossing movies ever, right up there with big hits like Avatar and Titanic. And guess what? It’s the only movie in the top 10 that isn’t from Hollywood! π¨π³
In China, everyone is talking about Ne Zha II. It’s broken records and become a huge part of this year’s movie magic. β¨
But the excitement doesn’t stop there! Ne Zha II just released in North America on February 14 (yes, Valentine’s Day! β€οΈ), and it’s already in the top five movies at the box office. How cool is that? π
Even famous animators like Sheila Sofian from the U.S. are super impressed. She said, “I was on the edge of my seat the whole time!” π’
With all this buzz, something special is happening in Beijing. A new campaign called “China Travel with Chinese Films” was launched at the China National Film Museum. ποΈ
What’s this all about? Well, they’re combining movies and travel to invite people from all over the world to explore China through its amazing films! π½οΈβοΈ
The idea is to create fun travel routes based on movies, so you can visit places you’ve seen on the big screen. Imagine walking where your favorite characters did! πΆββοΈπΆββοΈ
This campaign is hosted by the China Film Administration and China Media Group (CMG). They want to bring movie magic and real-life adventures together. π
Jiang Qiudi, who works with CMG in Europe, said they’ll use their global media connections to share this cool project with everyone. π
Filmmakers, movie studios, travel agencies, and more are all joining in to make this happen. It’s a big team effort! π€π€
So, next time you watch a Chinese movie like Ne Zha II, you might just be inspired to pack your bags and explore China yourself! ππΊοΈ
Who’s ready for a real-life adventure? πββοΈπββοΈ
