In more than half a year, the Chinese mainland market has created a total annual box office of over 30 billion yuan. This is a very impressive achievement and a very gratifying achievement.
You must know that in the whole year of 2022, mainland China will only create a cumulative total box office of 29.9 billion yuan. In Chinese film history, the year with the best annual box office performance is 2019, when the cumulative domestic box office reached 64.7 billion yuan; followed by 2018, when the total annual box office also exceeded 60 billion yuan.
This year, in just half a year, our mainland market has created a total annual box office of over 30 billion yuan. If it goes well, the Chinese mainland market may be able to return to the level of 2018, and then move towards the highest annual box office in 2019.
In fact, in comparison, the annual box office results created by the mainland China market this year are more valuable than those in 2018 and 2019, because this year's mainland China market is completely supported by our own domestic films.
Like 2018, the Hollywood blockbuster "Avengers 3" earned 2.39 billion yuan at the box office in the mainland, "Venom" earned 1.87 billion yuan at the box office, and the total box office in the mainland such as "Aquaman" and "Jurassic World 2" also All are above 1.5 billion RMB.
In 2019, "Avengers 4" earned a high box office of over 4.2 billion yuan. In addition, "Fast and Furious: Special Operations", "Spider-Man: Far From Home", "Bumblebee" and "Captain Marvel" And so on, their respective box office in the mainland are also more than 1 billion yuan.
This year, the currently highest-grossing imported movie in the mainland is the not-so-good "Fast and Furious 10", with a total box office of less than 1 billion yuan in the mainland.
That is to say, most of the more than 30 billion yuan box office created in the past six months came from our domestic films, and the top three films in China's annual box office have made greater contributions.
Currently, the top three films in mainland China's annual box office are "Man Jianghong", "The Wandering Earth 2" and "The Vanishing She". Among them, "Man Jianghong" still ranks as the annual box office champion with a score of nearly 4.6 billion yuan. It can be said that there are really not many movies that can shake its box office performance in the future, or even none at all.
In fact, many viewers in China believe that a movie like "Manjianghong" should not be the box office champion, because it does not have the strength to become the box office champion, just like "Hello, Li Huanying" in 2021.
Relatively speaking, the movie that should win the annual box office championship is the domestic sci-fi blockbuster "The Wandering Earth 2" co-starring Wu Jing and Andy Lau.
However, it has already become a fact that "Man Jianghong" is temporarily ranked as the annual box office champion in China. Maybe it can still sit firmly at the annual box office champion in China this year with its box office performance of nearly 4.6 billion yuan.
