Chow Tai Fook makes golden Jingu Bang made from pure gold

China’s first high-budget game, Black Myth: Wukong has sparked a global craze since its release last week.

Interestingly, a Chow Tai Fook shop in China recently made a replica of the Golden Cudgel — aka Jingu Bang —  from pure gold.

Securities Times, however, reported that the price tag was for reference purposes only — the item is not for sale but can be custom-made upon request.

Turns out, the Jingu Bang was unrelated to the Black Myth: Wukong game. A Chow Tai Fook staff said that the golden staff has been around for two years but gained exposure recently due to the game’s popularity.
