The film has earned over 4.4 billion yuan on the Chinese mainland.

It has now surpassed "Titanic" to become the third film in history to pass the 660-million-dollar mark in one single market, only behind "Avatar" and "Star Wars: The Force Awakens."

Besides Wu, it also stars Zhang Han, Wu Gang, Celina Jade and Frank Grillo.

On August 7, after 11 days of its release, the film took in nearly 3.4 billion yuan at the domestic box office, cruising past Hong Kong movie star Stephen Chow's "The Mermaid" to become China's highest grossing film of all time.
