According to data from Maoyan, a movie industry website, adding the box office of the first episode – "The Battle at Lake Changjin" which was aired in 2021, the two movies have received more than 8.7 billion yuan, or $1.36 billion as of press time on Thursday.
Twenty-year-old Wu Weiwei, a Beijing-based university student has this to say: "In 1950, China was a poor and extremely undeveloped country as the civil war just ended in the mainland one year earlier. But our martyrs and heroes dared to fight and beat the most powerful military hegemony to save our neighboring country and keep the US invasion away from our border. This is about the life and death of our nation".
Methinks that explains why these movies have been so well-received by the Chinese!
Liverpool won 1-0 against Burnley to record a fourth consecutive Premier League victory yesterday.
"Everything was set up to be a banana skin for us", said Klopp. "The balls in the air were so tricky to defend because the wind came from all directions. We played the circumstances rather than suffered from them".
That may be so but we can't hide the fact that it was a disjointed Liverpool performance.
Anyway, the important thing is we got the 3 points and the gap at the top is down to nine!
Meanwhile, in the fifth round of the Scottish Cup, Celtic overcame Raith Rovers 4-0 – but manager Ange Postecoglou still criticized his team's work rate.
Liam Scales' stunning strike in the twenty-second minute gave the Glasgow side a first-half lead. But Celtic were below par until Giorgos Giakoumakis (68) and Daizen Maeda (71) scoring in quick succession and Nir Bitton scored on the rebound in the eighty-eighth minute from his late, saved penalty.
Postecoglou didn't think his team showed urgency. "We weren't great in the first half. We didn't work hard enough, we didn't play at a tempo, took too many touches of the ball. The second half was better”.
Celtic will find out their opponents in the last eight today following the tie between Dundee and Peterhead.
