China’s box office remained strong post-Lunar New Year, with 'Ne Zha 2' earning $275.3 million, bringing its total to $1.64 billion.

The latest entry in the hit comedy-mystery franchise continues to show staying power despite “Ne Zha 2’s” overwhelming presence in the market. Rounding out the top five, Jet Tone Film’s “In the Mood for Love”, Wong Kar-wai’s 2000 classic, returned to theaters with a $4.8 million weekend debut. With no signs of slowing down, the continued dominance of “Ne Zha 2” is keeping the momentum strong as China’s theatrical market enjoys one of its most successful starts to a year.
