Topping the global animated film box office, NE ZHA 2's box office continued to rise. As of yesterday afternoon, it collected more than 13.5 billion yuan RMB (about 14.5 billion Hong Kong dollars), breaking another record. NE ZHA 2 was released in Hong Kong and Macao the day before yesterday. With more than 800 performances, it received more than HK$ 6.57 million on the first day to become the box office champion in Hong Kong and Macau. It also became the champion of animated films in the history of Hong Kong and Macau, surpassing the 2019 FROZEN 2 and the 2015 THE MINIONS. It was also the highest box office record for mainland films in Hong Kong and Macau. THE WAY I TALK (HONG NGOR GUM TIN JUM MOR SUET), which was released at the same time, has a cumulative box office of more than HK$ 2.5 million in Hong Kong and Macao the day before yesterday. Its Golden Horse Awards Best Actress Chung Suet Ying actively thanked the audience, hoping that more people will enter the theater to support the movie.

NE ZHA 2 is the first box office film in Chinese film history to break 10 billion yuan, and has surpassed Hollywood's INSIDE OUT 2 to become the global animated film box office champion, temporarily ranking 8th in the global box office list. NE ZHA 2 officially opened in Hong Kong and Macao the day before yesterday. With more than 800 screenings, its opening day box office was more than 6.57 million and 92,000 attendees. Aside from becoming the Hong Kong and Macau box office champion, it also became the box office champion of animated films in Hong Kong and Macao film history, surpassing FROZEN 2 and THE MINIONS. At the same time it became the opening box office champion of mainland films in Hong Kong and Macao film history, breaking a number of Hong Kong and Macao records.

NE ZHA 2 was jointly distributed in Hong Kong by Mandarin Motion Pictures, Media Asia Group, Sil-Metropole Organization and Emperor Motion Pictures, and the owners of the four distribution companies were very happy that the film has achieved good results. The Chairman of Mandarin Motion Pictures Raymond Wong Pak Ming congratulated NE ZHA 2 on winning the box office of Hong Kong's animated film, and was proud to be one of the distributors, "This work not only showcases the profound heritage of traditional Chinese culture, but also reinterprets the classic story from a modern perspective. I look forward to more Hong Kong audiences entering the cinema to experience this excellent work first-hand, and feel its unique cultural charm and profound emotional connotation."

The Chairman of Media Asia Group Dr. Peter Lam Kin Ngok said, "This time we collaborate with other companies to introduce NE ZHA 2, which has an even stronger reputation than the first installment and continues to set new records. We hope to bring more surprises to Hong Kong audiences." The General Manager of Sil-Metropole Organization Ding Kai was happy to have achieved good results, "It not only injects a shot in the arm for the sluggish box office, encourages our peers, but also gives us hope that more and more excellent mainland films will be released in Hong Kong, showcasing Hong Kong's unique charm as a hub for cultural exchange between China and the rest of the world." The Chairman of Emperor Group Dr. Albert Yeung Sau Sing was proud to be one of the distributors of NE ZHA 2 in Hong Kong and Macau, and was very confident in the film. "The box office will rise steadily, and I believe that NE ZHA 2 can become the top 5 highest box office in the world, winning glory for the country, and I feel very proud to be a Chinese."

The Golden Horse Best Actress Chung Suet Ying and Neo Yau Hawk Sau starred, Adam Wong Sau Ping directed movie THE WAY WE TALK (HONG NGOR GUM TIN JUM MOR SUET) was released last Thursday (20th), with a cumulative box office of more than HK$ 2.5 million in Hong Kong and Macao. Chung Suet Ying said that there were many other good movies released during the same period, and the number of screenings of THE WAY WE TALK was less; so she called on everyone to seize the opportunity to watch it. "More people watching it can make the number of screening continue. The content of the movie is so interesting, I want more people to see it." THE WAY WE TALK was nominated for 7 Hong Kong Film Awards, competing with the over HK$ 100 million box office TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN (GAU LUNG SING JAI JI WAI SING) and THE LAST DANCE (POR. DEI YUK). The Best Actress nominee Chung Suet Ying said that there was no pressure because the genres were different. The audience could also like several movies at once. Was she confident about winning the Hong Kong Film Awards Best Actress? She said that she was confident that she would be there to enjoy the show, and she hoped that the film would win the behind the scenes awards like the best sound effects to commend the hard work of a group of behind-the-scenes staff.
