The Jackie Chan directed and starred 101st film CZ12 (SUP YI SUN CHIU) opened in the Mainland, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia and performed well at all four locations. Aside from the earlier Mainland box office success, the film also broke records in Singapore and Malaysia.

CZ12 after seven days in release in Singapore has already accumulated 2.40 million Singapore dollar and broke the Chinese film release week record. The film also broke the Chinese film first week opening box office record in Malaysia, in a short week its box office has already exceeded 9 million ringgit and become the Chinese film with the highest seven day cumulative box office. Jackie Chan said, "I am very happy to be able tor break box office records. Actually when we promoted in Singapore and Malaysia we already sensed the great response from the local audience. They were looking forward to watching this film very much. The trouble now is seemingly everyone still accepts my large scale action, I don't know if I should retract my earlier announcement so CZ12 will not become my final large scale action film?"
