The box office of Hong Kong's Christmas period this year decreased by 40 % compared with the same period last year, the lowest in 20 years.
Comprehensive Sing Tao Daily and the Internet media "Hong Kong 01" reported that data from Hong Kong Box Office Co., Ltd. showed that from Christmas Eve from Ping An Night to Tuesday (December 24th to 26th)It was 19.59 million (Hong Kong dollars, the same below, about S $ 3.3 million), which was far lower than 32.84 million yuan in the same period last year, with a decrease of 40.33%.
The Hong Kong Film Association and theater Chamber of Commerce pointed out that the Christmas holiday is an important golden period. The box office plunge reflects the continued downturn in the consumption of Hong Kong's film industry.
Hong Zuxing, chairman of the Hong Kong Film Association Hong Zuxing on Thursday (December 28), said on the radio holiday that in the past, the highest box office movie in the past has 400 to 5 million box office on a single day, but this year's highest box office at the box office this yearMovie, only 6 million yuan in three days, he described as "the most bleak year".
Hong Zuxing believes that consumption in the north of Hong Kong people has an impact on the box office. In addition, the first Christmas after the epidemic, many Hong Kong people travel to travel.
The Christmas holiday just passed, a large number of Hong Kong people went north to travel, and the number of people far exceeded the Chinese mainland Chinese tourists in the south. As a result, the business business in Hong Kong's consumer industry was not ideal.Based on the four -day Christmas holiday calculation, more than 2.1 million outbound people in Hong Kong, of which more than 70 % were Hong Kong residents.
