That's not how it works. $100M grossed in China equals about $25M grossed in the US. It will need closer to $450M to break even if China is a huge chunk of the grossings. Not counting marketing.

So in China only about 12% of the gross goes back to the producer? Man, that's harsh.

25%. Yeah, my maths is wrong. $100M in China equals $50M in the US.
