ORS PS is bigger than DC2 for tomorrow. Will over take MH2 gross next week. Who knew MH2 would take 3rd on the holiday. May fall short of 2.5b. At least: DC2 3b ORS 2.6b MH2 2.4b ORS could leg out close to DC2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The official responses from the DC2 and ORS can be found here in Chinese. http://weibo.com/ttarticle/p/show?id=2309404209907548175298 In summary, DC2 apologised and ORS requested netizens to report if they found some cinemas fudging data. My personal view is that there is no need for ORS to fudge. It is the best reviewed film by critics and audience. Some even declared it as a milestone movie. Personally, I am genuinely surprised that the censorship board did not request the film to cut away all the gruesome scenes. Probably the most adrenaline pumping Chinese film in a while. @POTUS It’s been that long since I last posted? Thank you for the welcome. 21st Feb (est) DC2 ¥292m/¥1.889b ORS ¥264m/¥1.191b MH2 ¥135m/¥1.700b BB ¥48.4m/¥411m MK3 ¥27.3m/¥613m Est total for the day: ¥782m Edited February 22, 2018 by sgchn40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article is saying DC2 is wondering where their box office went, if their box office was been taking a hit by other's fudging.

Nearly every local film fudged more or less since last year, especially those distributed by BONA including ORS. Distributers don't care about whether the film is phenomenal——The Ex-file 3 which has an incredible run finishing ¥2b isn't an exception, nor is DC2 or ORS.

sgchn40 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 @ymblcza, how trustworthy is tieba these days? I used to visit them for insider news on game shows, etc. But I also noticed that more and more posts are using the site to spread conspiracy theories. If this is indeed true, then there is really no point tracking box office in China. Time to say goodbye again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But despite what the users said, these screenshot from ticket selling APPs is convincing imo. And the box office fudged makes up a low proportion for most films. Have fun.
