Chinese mythology's most beloved iconoclast has made a triumphant return to the silver screen, smashing box office records and invigorating the country's flagging film industry. After five years in the making, "Ne Zha" has raked in over 1 billion yuan ($145 million) since its release Friday, snatching the crown from "Monkey King: Hero Is Back," which screened four years ago and previously held the title of highest-grossing animated film from China.
