BEIJING, April 15 (Xinhua) -- The domestic action comedy "Ride On" continued to lead the Chinese daily box office chart on Friday, data from the China Movie Data Information Network showed Saturday.
The film, starring kung fu actors Jackie Chan and Wu Jing, pays tribute to stunt actors for action movies, who often work in risky conditions.
It generated nearly 9.61 million yuan (about 1.4 million U.S. dollars) on the eighth day of screening, raising its total box office revenue to 124 million yuan.
The film was followed by the Chinese adaptation of the classic Japanese family drama "Hachiko," which raked in about 6.77 million yuan on Friday.
The Chinese action film "Faces in the Crowd" came in third, pocketing about 5.19 million yuan on its debut. ■
