[Feature] A Comprehensive Evaluation of the Acting Careers of China’s Young Male Actors (Li Yifeng, Kris Wu, Luhan, Yang Yang, Zhang Yixing, etc)

This post was written by 诸葛 from Box Office Bar. Original post here. The post is long and a lot of fresh meats are included but we will only be translating evaluations for the ones who have high box office performances.

Note:

Personal box office is calculated by dividing the total gross of the movie by the actors’ placement in the billing. So it goes Movie Gross ÷ Billing Position. For example Jing Boran is billed second in Lost And Love so his personal box office is the total gross of the movie divided by 2.

Box office numbers included in the calculation are only for movies where the actors have top 5 billing.
