7.844 billion box office hits a new high in film history! But half of the 8 films during the Spring Festival were withdrawn

According to data from Lighthouse Professional Edition, as of 13:50 on February 17, the total box office of the 2024 Spring Festival reached 7.844 billion yuan, exceeding the 2021 Spring Festival (7.843 billion yuan) and breaking the box office record for the Spring Festival in Chinese film history.

Among them, "Hot As Hell", "Speeding Life 2" and "Boonie Bears: Reverse Time" are currently ranked in the top three box office during this year's Spring Festival.

Competition in the Spring Festival this year is very fierce, with four films announcing their withdrawal. Today is the last day of the Spring Festival, and the film "Bajie: The Heavenly Troops Going Down to the Underworld" announced that it will withdraw from this year's Spring Festival and postpone its release.

According to Lighthouse Professional Edition, the cumulative box office of the film since its release is only 3.16 million yuan.

Earlier, "Let's Rock the Sun Together", "Yellow Pi: The Cat That Descends from Heaven to Wealth" and "Mr. Red Carpet" announced their withdrawal from the Spring Festival schedule. Of the eight films that were scheduled to be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year, four have been withdrawn. Some netizens joked that this year is the "first year of withdrawal" for movies.

The box office of "Breaking War", which was released on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, is only 26,000 yuan, which is negligible. The last day of the Spring Festival will become a competition among four films: "Hot and Scorching", "Speeding Life 2", "Boonie Bears: Reversal of Time" and "Article 20".

Today is the last day of the Spring Festival holiday, and many workers have said: "I'm also withdrawing from the Spring Festival period."

"I didn't get to see the Spring Festival period in the first place, please rest assured, my work station is mine." "Everyone has resigned for the Spring Festival period, and are going back to where they came from. Why? Because I have to go to work. Those who don't go to work can continue to stay in the Spring Festival period, let me envy them."
