This year's Mid-Autumn Festival coincided with the National Day. Watching movies was one of the ways of entertainment for many Zhongshan residents during the 8-day holiday. Data from MaoYan Movie show that Zhongshan's box office revenue during National Day holiday was 17.674 million yuan.

"Considering the stipulation that the attendance rate under the impact of the epidemic should not exceed 75%, the film market showed signs of recovery during the National Day holiday this year," said Zhang Yiyou, general manager of Zhongshan Jinghua Wenhua Film Co Ltd.

Cinemas across the country resumed work on July 20. As of September 30, Zhongshan's 73-day box office revenue was 27.191 million yuan.
