Chinese box office has raked in 55.9 billion yuan up to the 25th, which has outnumbered the total for last year. Four out of the top five best sellers are domestical products. It remains doubtful whether the gross ticket sales will reach the expected 60 billion yuan, due to the feeble theatre ambiance and the cancelation of a box office subsidy.
