9.6 points of praise, the first evacuation movie box office exceeded 1 billion and is expected to hit 2.2 billion

The champion of this year's National Day movie box office has been announced. "A Thousand Miles Home" is far ahead of other movies. According to real-time data from Lighthouse Professional Edition, as of 20:38 on October 6, the box office of the movie "A Thousand Miles Home" has exceeded 1 billion.

"A Thousand Miles Home" is directed by Rao Xiaozhi and stars Zhang Yi, Wang Junkai, Yin Tao and others. The film is adapted from a real evacuation incident and is also the first Chinese-language film focusing on the "evacuation of diplomats."

War breaks out in the Republic of Numea in North Africa. Former resident diplomat Zong Dawei (played by Zhang Yi) and newcomer Cheng Lang (played by Wang Junkai) of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are ordered to assist in the evacuation of overseas Chinese. The reviews are very good, with scores of 9.6 on Maoyan and Tao Piaopiao, and 7.5 points on Douban.

"A Thousand Miles Home" is produced by Huace Film & TV, with Hengdian Film & TV participating in the production, and Alibaba Pictures and Maoyan Entertainment serving as co-distributors.

As for the final box office of the movie, previous analysis predicted that the box office of "The Journey Home" would be between 1.419 billion and 2.20 billion. However, the holiday balance is now insufficient, and it will take more effort to exceed 2 billion in the future.

In the Chinese movie box office in 2022, the total box office in the first half of the year was 17.186 billion yuan, the total number of screenings was 52.205 million, and the total number of people was 398 million. Among them, "The Battle at Lake Changjin" was 4.065 billion, "The Professional" was 2.628 billion, and "Miracle: The Dark Knight" was 1.378 billion. These three films exceeded 1 billion in box office revenue.

In the second half of the year, the box office of the recently popular "Lone Moon" exceeded 3 billion, and the key was extended to the end of October. It is probably difficult for "A Thousand Miles Home" to surpass this movie at the box office. The box office champion in the second half of the year has almost been decided.
