First of all, welcome to the forums My feeling is that non usual bockbusters are way more unpredictable and have more potential, not only in China, but everywhere. A blockbuster can have the initial boost of the hype and a big opening to take advantage but to have good legs it depends more on multiple views. But if a drama/comedy connects with people... sky is the limit.

About this, when DC3 beats WW2, the #1 in China will be bigger than #1 DOM, the #2 in China will be bigger than #2 DOM, ... until 4th spot. It will be the first time it happens. Before DC3: DOM vs China (I use current ER for Chinese grosses) 1. The Force Awakens (936) vs Wolf Warrior 2 (880) 2. Endgame (858) vs Ne Zha (778) 3. Avatar (760) vs The Wandering Earth (721) 4. Black Panther (700) vs Endgame (658) After DC3: DOM vs China 1. The Force Awakens (936) vs Detective Chinatown 3 (over 1b) 2. Endgame (858) vs Wolf Warrior 2 (880) 3. Avatar (760) vs Ne Zha (778) 4. Black Panther (700) vs The Wandering Earth (721)

almost 5 times? A bit lower. China 1.4b vs USA+Canada 365m = 3.8 times (and with quite lower ticket prices) Anyway, yes, China is giant with still a long way to grow in BO (mainly in no so big cities or regions). Said this, I do not know if DC3 will be beaten so soon. The current number 1 (Wolf Warrior 2) was released 3 years and a half ago. BTW, with 1.017b Yuan it has already matched Endgame OD ($157m)
