In the mainland China, the three day record is approximately 50 million yuans (US$ 6.04 million), breaking the record set by Hero two years ago.

It collected more than 10 million yuans (US$ 1.21 million) on opening day and the record doubled on Friday, breaking the single-day record set by Hero (18 million yuans).

In the city of Hong Kong, the revenue in the first two days reached HK$10,560,770 (US$ 1.36 million) and the three day record (Thur. - Sat.) is roughly HK$ 15 million (US$ 1.93).

During the first day (Thur.), it earned HK$ 4.11 million (US$ 0.53 million), ten times more than The Polar Express (opened on the same day) and Shark Tale (opened a week earlier) did.

In Taiwan, the opening day record (Fri.) is TW$ 15.4 million (US$ 0.48 million), breaking the Friday record set by The Day After Tomorrow (TW$ 10.0 million) and the Saturday number reached TW$ 25.0 million (US$ 0.78 million), 25% more than the preview record set by Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets.

The number should reach TW$ 100 million by Sunday. Kung Fu is also doing very well in Singapore and Malaysia.

Another Chinese film, A World Without Thieves, has earned more than 90 million yuans (US$ 10.87) in the mainland China and HK$ 4.31 million (US$ 0.55 million) in Hong Kong in two weeks.
