In the wake of the success of the animated movie Ne Zha 2, a wave of "Ne Zha fever" has swept across China.

Streets have become canvases for vibrant murals, with the rebellious yet heroic figure taking center stage. Some Ne Zha-themed graffiti walls have become hot spots for tourists to snap photos.

Wang Jianjie, 33, an artist from Gaoping city, Shanxi province, took the lead in creating one of the popular graffiti walls.

He told China Daily that he and his team worked from 8 am to 5 pm, overcoming many challenges, to present the 2.5-meter-high and 1-meter-wide image of Ne Zha in graffiti on a wall in an urban village in Gaoping.

"Seeing our creation become a popular spot for visitors fills me with joy," Wang said. The mural vividly portrays Ne Zha's fierce determination and inner strength, traits that have resonated deeply with audiences at home and abroad.
