China Breaks Box Office Records as U.S. Limps Along
VANITYFAIR
This past weekend the number one film at the domestic box office made a little over $2 million. The title? The Croods 2. It was released 12 weeks ago.
The landscape is vastly different in China. Despite restrictions on theaters of 75 percent capacity in most of the country, and at 50 percent in areas more at risk to COVID-19, this Lunar New Year holiday weekend broke records, with a tally equalling $775 million.
Of that, according to Variety, a massive $424 million (2.74 billion in Chinese yuan) went to the action-comedy Detective Chinatown 3, directed and co-written by Chen Sicheng. (Note: The Hollywood Reporter has the number a little lower, at $397 million.) Second place went to a time travel comedy Hi, Mom, written and directed by its lead actress Jia Ling.
To put that $424 million in perspective, it wallops the domestic record of opening weekends, the impressive $357 million for Avengers: Endgame. As Variety points out, Detective Chinatown 3 has earned $100 million more than Tenet's worldwide release in just three days, and has tripled Wonder Woman 1984's global take.
Detective Chinatown 3 stars Wang Baoqiang and Liu Haoran as two madcap police officers who have adventures in foreign lands. The first film, from 2015, brought them to Thailand, and the second, from 2018, sent the pair to New York City. The newest one takes them to Tokyo, and action star Tony Jaa makes an appearance. The film was shot with IMAX cameras, with $24 million coming from large format screenings, a highest ever in China.
In 2020, the number one worldwide box office winner, by a substantial margin, was the historical action picture The Eight Hundred, a Michael Bay-esque telling of a battle from the Second Sino-Japanese War. It's cumulative number was $472.5 million, so likely far less than Chinatown Detective 3 when it finishes its run.

China Breaks Box Office Records as U.S. Limps Along
VANITYFAIR
This past weekend the number one film at the domestic box office made a little over $2 million. The title? The Croods 2. It was released 12 weeks ago.
上个周末，美国国内票房第一的电影赚了200多万。片名是什么？《疯狂原始人2》（The Croods 2），上映时间是12周前。

The landscape is vastly different in China. Despite restrictions on theaters of 75 percent capacity in most of the country, and at 50 percent in areas more at risk to COVID-19, this Lunar New Year holiday weekend broke records, with a tally equalling $775 million.
中国的景象大不相同。尽管全国大部分地区的影院限制了75%的上座率，在疫情风险较大的地区也限制了50%的上座率，但这个春节假期的周末还是打破了记录，总票房达7.75亿美元。
landscape
表示“（陆上，尤指乡村的）风景，景色”，英文解释为“everything you can see when you look across a large area of land, especially in the country”。
tally /ˈtælɪ/

Of that, according to Variety, a massive $424 million (2.74 billion in Chinese yuan) went to the action-comedy Detective Chinatown 3, directed and co-written by Chen Sicheng. (Note: The Hollywood Reporter has the number a little lower, at $397 million.) Second place went to a time travel comedy Hi, Mom, written and directed by its lead actress Jia Ling.
据《Variety》报道，其中，4.24亿美元（27.4亿元人民币）的巨额票房归陈思诚执导并联合编剧的动作喜剧《唐人街探案3》（Detective Chinatown 3）所有。（注：《好莱坞报道》（The Hollywood Reporter）的数字略低，为3.97亿美元）。第二名是由女主角贾玲自编自导的时空穿越喜剧《你好，李焕英》（Hi, Mom）。
To put that $424 million in perspective, it wallops the domestic record of opening weekends, the impressive $357 million for Avengers: Endgame. As Variety points out, Detective Chinatown 3 has earned $100 million more than Tenet's worldwide release in just three days, and has tripled Wonder Woman 1984's global take.
要说这4.24亿美元的成绩，它超越了国内首映周末的纪录，即《复仇者联盟4：终局之战》（Avengers: Endgame）的3.57亿美元。正如《Variety》指出的那样，《唐人街探案3》（Detective Chinatown 3）在短短三天内就比《信条》（Tenet）的全球上映收入多出1亿美元，是《神奇女侠1984》（Wonder Woman 1984）全球收入的三倍。

Detective Chinatown 3 stars Wang Baoqiang and Liu Haoran as two madcap police officers who have adventures in foreign lands. The first film, from 2015, brought them to Thailand, and the second, from 2018, sent the pair to New York City. The newest one takes them to Tokyo, and action star Tony Jaa makes an appearance. The film was shot with IMAX cameras, with $24 million coming from large format screenings, a highest ever in China.
《唐人街探案3》由王宝强和刘昊然主演，两位鲁莽的警察在异国他乡展开冒险。2015年的第一部，把他们带到了泰国，2018年的第二部，把两人送到了纽约。最新的一部则把他们带到了东京，动作片影星托尼·贾（Tony Jaa）也出现了。该片采用IMAX摄影机拍摄，2400万美元来自大画幅放映，创下中国历史最高纪录。
madcap
表示“（行为或计划）鲁莽的，愚蠢的，荒唐的”，英文解释为“used to describe silly and funny behaviour or a plan that is very silly and funny and unlikely to succeed”，如：the madcap antics of the clowns 小丑们愚蠢可笑的动作。
In 2020, the number one worldwide box office winner, by a substantial margin, was the historical action picture The Eight Hundred, a Michael Bay-esque telling of a battle from the Second Sino-Japanese War. It's cumulative number was $472.5 million, so likely far less than Chinatown Detective 3 when it finishes its run.
2020年，全球票房第一的是历史动作片《八佰》（The Eight Hundred），该片以迈克尔·贝（Michael Bay）风格的方式讲述了第二次中日战争中的一场战役，以相当大的优势获得了全球票房冠军。累计票房是4.725亿美元，所以很可能远远低于《唐人街探案3》上映期结束后的票房。
