China's 2020 box office revenue has exceeded 15 billion yuan (about 2.27 billion U.S. dollars), with the top three earners contributing almost half of the earnings.

The yearly box office collection totaled nearly 15.2 billion yuan as of Monday morning after crossing the 15-billion-yuan mark Saturday, with more than 400 million moviegoers visiting theaters this year, data compiled by the China Movie Data Information Network showed.

War epic "The Eight Hundred" by Guan Hu topped the 2020 list, grossing more than 3.1 billion yuan to date, followed by comedy anthology "My People, My Homeland" and animated feature "Jiang Ziya: Legend of Deification," raking in more than 2.7 billion yuan and nearly 1.6 billion yuan, respectively.

"The Sacrifice," a film set during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea (1950-1953), ranked fourth, with nearly 900 million yuan, and "Leap," a sports film that recounts the stories of the Chinese national women's volleyball team over the last 40 years, came in fifth, with more than 800 million yuan.
