On the other hand, ‘No More Bets’, which hit theatres on Wednesday, has earned an astonishing $247.5 million already, with $101 million coming from ticket windows in China alone.
Moreover, it is predicted that ‘No More Bets’ will finish its run with over $500 million, making it China’s biggest hit in recent months.
Directed by Shen Ao and executive produced by Ning Hao, ‘No More Bets’ follows the story of a computer programmer (Lay Zhang) and a model (Gina Jin), who were tempted by high-paying recruitment abroad and found themselves duped by a gang who forced them to participate in online fraud.
Meanwhile, Warner Bros.’ ‘Barbie’ continued to dominate the domestic Box Office for the fourth consecutive week. The live-action adaptation of Mattel’s iconic doll has earned a whopping $1.2 billion worldwide.
