什么是国庆档？ [Guó qìng dàng]

Generally speaking, there are several important peaks of high box office takings for movies releasing in China, among which the National Day Holiday Season is the one that won't be missed by the majority.

The Chinese National Day Holiday Season usually refers the movies that are scheduled to release during the period of China National Day Holidays, often written as 国庆档 (guó qìng dàng) in Simplified Chinese. Since this is the second-longest legal festival and holiday in China, second only to the Spring Festival Holiday, that allows the public to enjoy at least a 7-day-long vocation, it has been proved as the golden time period that will absolutely arise an upsurge of movie-going and other consuming activities, correspondingly known as the "Golden Week Holiday" in China.

国庆档，通常指的是在中国国庆长假期间上映的电影。由于国庆节是继春节档后中国第二个持续时间较长的法定节假日，让大众拥有至少长达七天的超长假期，因此也被证明是“吸金”能力强劲的中国第二大电影档期。

So let's sit down, take a mug of coffee, wait and see if any new movie release popping out later.

写在本故事末尾的是，从广义上来说，国庆档并不仅指上述热映中的影片。还有一系列新片正在等候十月内排期，以便错峰上映，能避开这八天竞争白热化的国庆档期。我们不妨坐下来，品尝一杯咖啡，等等看下一波新片来袭。

Enjoy!
