Then the two fell silent again.

Finally, Liu Zehang spoke first: "This movie... lacked depth in post-production."

Xiao He nodded, and said in a similarly tactful way, "Hmm, it feels like it might be lacking something."

Despite saying that, when the two looked at each other, their eyes were filled with ease.

It's truly relaxing. The quality of their competitors' work is far inferior, so how can they possibly lose?

Despite being called a zombie movie, the actual number of zombies is not high. Even though the main characters are constantly running away, only a small group of zombies follow them. Most of the time, they stay in a safe room and the group argues and blames each other like they are playing Werewolf.

Tong Junhui, the male lead, is basically just a supporting character, playing a role in advancing the main plot and connecting the past and the future. He then continues to be a background character, watching the characters played by these big stars "act out" and argue in the room.

To be honest, in a few shots, Xiao He could even see the helplessness on Tong Junhui's face—Xiao He believed that Tong Junhui's helplessness at that time was definitely not an act, but genuine.

Although Tong Junhui most likely made the film to act as an informant for the police, and he himself did not genuinely want to make the film, Xiao He still couldn't help but shed a tear for him.

It's inexplicably both tragic and hilarious.

Of course, while the fun of your peers is certainly entertaining, the defeat of your rivals is equally exhilarating.

"Oh? Right."

Xiao He suddenly remembered something.

"Have we forgotten something?"

"Um?"

Liu Zehang looked left and right.

Then both of them widened their eyes: "He Junhao!" / "Your classmate!"

A few minutes later, the two finally managed to pull the lost He Junhao back into the corner.

He Junhao looked at the two people in front of him speechlessly: "No, I'm a living, breathing person, how could you two forget?"

"Ahem, my mistake, my mistake."

Xiao He coughed lightly, abruptly changing the subject, "Perfect timing, tell me, what do you think of this movie?"

"Of course it's rotten!"

He Junhao, unlike Xiao He and Liu Zehang, didn't hold back when speaking and couldn't help but raise his voice. But then, thinking that there might be fans of the cast of "The Detective" around, he immediately lowered his voice: "Especially Zhou Lin and his goddess."

"That's absolutely outrageous!"

"Compared to Brother Xiao's 'Law of the Jungle,' it's practically a complete idiot!"

"In the end, I don't think the plot is about finding a daughter anymore, but rather a bunch of lunatics fighting a simp."

"At first, I thought the male lead and the little girl who was switched at birth were the main plot, and that the story would focus on their relationship, creating a familial bond of mutual redemption. But in the end, the male lead was just a background character, and the little girl was merely a minor accessory, completely deviating from the theme..."

He Junhao was already very quick-witted, and now that he started complaining, he just couldn't stop. Xiao He even suspected that he was no longer a food blogger, but a complaining blogger, because he was just too talkative.

"But I don't understand, how did a movie like this, which is good enough to be released in theaters, get such a huge number of screenings? Don't they look at the content when scheduling screenings? It's simply outrageous!"

After complaining, He Junhao also expressed his doubts, "What were the cinemas thinking? This movie doesn't seem reliable at all. Do they really think they can use this movie to boost the box office and make a fortune?"

"This is perfectly normal now. The cinemas have most likely taken a share of the film's budget, so naturally they want to increase the number of screenings and make more money. Besides, these days, many cinema executives don't even personally review the films they're vetting," Liu Zehang said in a low voice.

Otherwise, a large number of unwatchable and low-quality films would not still be showing in theaters and even getting a certain percentage of screenings over the years.

Many things don't necessarily have to be the best to have a chance to succeed.
