First CBM post COVID to cross 400k Maoyan want to see chart 😳 this could definitely cross over 100M in China.. and what’s with that crazy daily increase in Maoyan?
Why did all the Chinese movies (apart from panda plan) go down while wild robot, transforemrs and Romulus went up? Is this likely to happen again tomorrow?
