As of November 25, 2018, the Chinese box office stood at 55.914 billion yuan ($8.14 billion), registering an annual growth of 10 percent.
Among the 73 films that raked in more than 100 million yuan at the box office, 39 were domestic productions.
While it remains to be seen whether the goal of breaking the 60-billion-yuan mark will be achieved this year, the Chinese film market is no doubt a success story.
In the 40 years of reform and opening-up, dramatic changes have continuously altered the course of China's film industry development.
