Aftershock,a movie about the 1976 Tangshan earthquake,has grossed over 160 million yuan at the Chinese box office since its opening on July 22,the State Administration of Radio Film and Television (SARFT) said Monday.
The movie earned more than 100 million yuan within three days of its release,breaking the Chinese box office record previously held by The Founding of a Republic.
Aftershock set its first box office record on its release day when it earned 36. 2 million yuan―the highest box office ever for a local movie on its opening day.
It is about a mother's threedecade journey leading to an emotional reunion with the daugh?ter she thought she had lost in the earthquake. The Tangshan earthquake left more than 240,000 dead.
A survey on sina. com,one of China's major news portals,shows nearly half of the 20 ,015 people surveyed said the movie was "very good and surpassed expectations".
About one quarter of those surveyed said the great performances of the movie's cast moved them the most.
Also there was laughter during the movie's screening,especially when advertisements were inserted into the story line of the movie and given closeup shots.
Fifteen minutes of the movie's total length of two and a half hours were for these advertise?ments,which have drawn criticism from the media as well as the public.
In an interview with Xinhua on Monday,Zhang Hongsen,vice director of the SARFT film department said advertisements placed in movies were necessary for film makers to make profits,as piracy poses a threat to their revenues.
He said a tougher crackdown on piracy was essential to solving the problem of such adver?tisements placed into movies.

Extremely hot weather is common in many parts of the world. Although hot weather just makes most people feel hot,it can cause serious medical problems―even death. Recently,extreme heat was blamed for killing more than one hundred people in India. Experts say heat may be nature's deadliest killer.
The total heat of a hot day or several hot days can affect health. Several hot days are considered a heat wave. Experts say heat waves often become dangerous when the nighttime temperature does not drop much from the highest daytime temperature. This causes great stress on the human body.
The most common health problem linked to hot weather is heat stress. The causes of heat stress include wearing heavy clothing,physical work or exercise,hot weather or high humidity (湿度) .
Untreated heat stress can lead to a more serious problem called heat exhaustion. A person suffering from heat exhaustion loses too much water through perspiration (流汗) .The person becomes dehydrated. Heat exhaustion also can lead to heat stroke if it is not treated. Heat stroke is the most serious disorder linked to hot weather.
Generally,the body temperature rises to more than forty degrees Celsius. The body stops perspiring. The skin becomes dry and very hot. A person may become unconscious,not knowing what is happening.
Health experts say adults should drink about two liters of water a day to replace all the water lost in liquid wastes and perspiration.
In hot weather,drinking cool liquids is best. Cool drinks do more than just replace lost body water. They also help cool us faster than warm liquids do. This is because they take up more heat inside the body and carry it away faster. Yet experts advise against drinking sweet liquids in hot weather. The sugar they contain slows the liquid from getting into the blood system. Doctors also warn against alcoholic drinks. Alcohol speeds the loss of body water through liquid wastes.
Doctors say actions other than drinking water can protect against the health dangers of heat. Stay out of the sun,if possible. Wear loose,lightweight and lightcolored clothes. Also,rest more often. Physical activity produces body heat.
Experts say these simple steps can prevent the dangerous health problems linked to heat. They will prevent sickness,help you feel better and may one day even save your life.
