Move over, Hollywood! The rebellious mythical hero Ne Zha from China's blockbuster Ne Zha 2 just brought 🔥 to Qingdao's tourist hotspots. Fans flocked to snap selfies and high-five the animated legend, proving the film's cultural clout is alive and kicking 🦵.
Born from the classic tale The Investiture of the Gods, this CGI-powered underdog story has become China's biggest box-office champ ever 💥. With $1 billion in global earnings, it's also the first non-Hollywood film to smash that milestone – a flex for homegrown storytelling 🌏.
Local filmmakers say Ne Zha's viral street appearances are about 'keeping myths fresh for Gen-Z.' As one fan put it: 'He's like China's answer to Spider-Man – but with more destiny and floating ribbons!' 🕸️🎋
