Ding Wanyu remained unfazed by the sharp question, her composure unshaken by it. The host, however, grew more serious, cautiously observing the reactions of those around her, ready to intervene at any moment.

Fortunately, Ding Wanyu had anticipated this problem before she took office.

Holding up the microphone, she smiled at everyone in the audience and said, "No Bait is a very good work. Shu Yuxiu's success is not accidental. After all, who wouldn't like such a face? When I was filming, I often thought that if I were Qi Xinyue, I would definitely fall for her too."

As Ding Wanyu spoke, the atmosphere eased considerably, and everyone turned to look at Xiao He, then smiled kindly.

"But all stories have an end, and dreamers will eventually wake up. Shu Yuxiu is Shu Yuxiu, Qi Xinyue is Qi Xinyue, and I am just me. I don't want to attribute such a wonderful story to a relationship in reality because of my personal experience. Shu Yuxiu can represent many people, but he is definitely not just a scumbag."

"So I chose this script simply because I like it, appreciate it, and think it is meaningful and valuable enough. I also hope that more people can see it and that it can bring some reflection and emotion. That is my original intention in choosing it."

Ding Wanyu then bowed slightly to everyone: "I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to the 'No Bait' production team for giving me this opportunity, and to everyone here for your appreciation of 'No Bait.' I believe that good works can be seen by more people, and I hope to bring you more works in the future."

When Ding Wanyu finished speaking, enthusiastic applause rang out.

After that, no one ever linked "No Bait" with Ding Wanyu's romantic relationship again.

Everyone cooperated well in the next part of the activity.

Soon, the brief meeting between the main creative team and the event officially came to an end.

As "No Bait" premiered on its first day, online feedback about the film began to emerge.

A large group of people began discussing the plot and quality of "No Bait".

Another group of people were yelling and begging the cinema to add more screenings.

[Please, XX Cinema, are you guys incompetent? With so few screenings, who's supposed to watch it? I want to see it two, three, four times! Don't give me so few screenings!]

Why are all the theaters around my house completely sold out for "No Bait" tomorrow and the day after? Fans, please don't rush to buy tickets at this time! Please wait until we've finished watching the movie before you try to grab tickets for the midnight showing, okay?

Uh, is it possible that we fans haven't even managed to get tickets yet?

【Are you sure you're not joking? Why are people even fighting over this corner seat? Have you guys gone to such lengths to see "No Bait"?】

[Ahem, the main thing is that I really want to see it again right away, so the location isn't really important.]

[What?! People are already planning a second viewing? Why? Get lost! I haven't even managed to get a ticket on my first try, and you guys are already planning a second?]

[Hehe, living in a third-tier city is so great! After watching it the first time, I can immediately watch it again, hehe.]

[Seriously? What's with all those people watching it a second time? This advertising is ridiculous. Once is enough; why are they promoting a second viewing? It's laughable.]

Those who haven't seen the movie won't understand that agonizing feeling! You wouldn't understand! There are actually many foreshadowing elements in the film that you'll only discover when you rewatch it. Watching it again will feel like revisiting a horror movie—it'll give you the creeps.

So, is "No Bait" any good or not? I'm still undecided about what movie to watch tomorrow.

[Friend, don't hesitate, you absolutely must see "No Bait" this May Day holiday!]

[You might skip the gossip this May Day holiday, but you absolutely MUST watch "No Bait"! I just walked out of the theater, and I'm the loneliest person in the world!]

[I finally understand why some people are creating hype around "No Bait"—because "No Bait" is genuinely good! Please don't be influenced by the negative news online. The fraudulent romance between Ding Wanyu and Sun Yuyang shouldn't be considered the core selling point of "No Bait" at all! I suggest the production team separate these two issues as soon as possible. "No Bait" shouldn't just be a simple romantic scam! It deserves a deeper meaning.]

[The drama "No Bait" is really amazing! Especially Xiao Ge, he's so incredibly handsome in it! His acting is absolutely superb, but the scumbag is truly despicable.]

[I've watched it twice. There are so many foreshadowing elements, and each viewing offered new experiences. It's definitely worth watching. By the way, Xiao He's acting in *No Bait* is superb; his portrayal of the character's changing states across different timelines is incredibly well done. The director's narrative logic is also impressive. Despite constantly jumping between timelines, the film's overall logic remains coherent. No wonder he won the award—it's well-deserved!]

[Understanding the overt and covert storylines in "No Bait" is key to understanding the final narrative; director Ning Jiaqi's talent remains undiminished! Thumbs up!]

[Xiao He's acting was so enjoyable, and I really enjoyed watching it too. But can anyone give me a definitive answer: did Shu Yuxiu actually kill his wife in the end?]

[Please, please, no spoilers! I want to watch "No Bait"!]
