In this year's Spring Festival, the box office hit of the comedy film "Hello, Li Huanying", directed and starred by Jia Ling, making Shen Teng the first actor in China to star in a film with a total box office of more than 20 billion yuan.
In this year's National Day file, the box office performance of the domestic war blockbuster "Changjin Lake" has been red all the way, breaking a number of domestic box office records in a few days. Wu Jing, one of the main actors in the film, also became the second actor in China to star in a film with a total box office of more than 20 billion yuan after Shen Teng.
Now, "Chosin Lake" has received a high box office of more than 5.6 billion yuan in China, and actor Wu Jing has starred in more than 24.4 billion yuan in the film with this film, so he has become the "first person" in China's box office.
Whether it is Shen Teng, the first to achieve a total box office of more than 20 billion yuan, or Wu Jing, the current "first person" in China's box office, they mainly represent male actors.
Among Chinese actresses, the representative ones are Zhou Dongyu and Bai Baihe.
Zhou Dongyu is China's third "Grand Slam" film queen after Zhou Xun and Zhang Ziyi, and among the younger generation of actors, her acting skills are beyond doubt.
In addition to his excellent acting skills, Zhou Dongyu also has a certain box office appeal, and the movies starring him are not low at the box office.
Released in 2019, "Young You" is the closest of Zhou Dongyu's major films. After the film was released, it received great acclaim and eventually grossed 1.558 billion yuan.
With the high box office obtained by this film, the total box office of the film starring Zhou Dongyu reached 9.598 billion yuan, which was a box office achievement that overwhelmed other actresses in China, and Zhou Dongyu became the "first person" in the box office among Chinese actresses.
Before Zhou Dongyu, Bai Baihe was the "first person" in the box office among Chinese actresses. Among the films starring Bai Baihe, there are two films that have a box office of more than 2 billion yuan.
In 2015 alone, the total box office of the films starring Bai Baihe exceeded 3 billion yuan, and topped the annual box office list of China, becoming the first actress and the only one so far in the total box office of the starring films.
Later, Bai Baihe was overtaken by Zhou Dongyu and retreated to the second place in the total box office of the film starring Chinese actress.
But now, with his new movie "Door Lock", Bai Baihe has achieved a reversal of Zhou Dongyu and regained the title of "first person" at the box office of Chinese actresses.
"Door Lock" is based on a South Korean film of the same name, which was released in China on November 19 this year and received more than 40 million yuan at the box office on the first day, becoming the day's box office champion.
The box office of more than 40 million yuan has made the total box office of the films starring Bai Baihe exceed 9.6 billion yuan, which has surpassed Zhou Dongyu and become the "first person" in the box office of Chinese actresses.
If the final total box office of the movie "Door Lock" can reach about 450 million yuan, then Bai Baihe will become China's first 10 billion actress.
