"Just Call Me Nobody" is the first hit of the new year movie season. The comedy has exceeded 150 million yuan at the box office since being released on December the 3rd. Director Chen Kaige's "Sacrifice", which hit the big screen one day later, has broken 200 million yuan.

The number broke the record of 763,000 viewers of "Avatar". And the bullets did fly fast as it exceeded 100 million yuan in three days, the quickest of any Chinese film. It's expected to reach 300 million by the end of this week.
