When the Easter egg appeared, all the audience watching the movie felt their scalps tingling and their hair standing on end.
The entire barrage of comments exploded instantly.
“F*ck, f*ck, f*ck, I have goosebumps all over my body.”
“The female lead is taking drugs again. This is a horror movie, right? Orz! I’m kneeling!!”
“I was scared to death by this Easter egg. It turns out that the female lead took drugs again in the end???”
Jiang Ting’s fourth film could be described as impeccable in terms of both the theme of the film and the acting skills of the actors.
The subject matter was completely different from the controversial subject matter of the last film.
Who dared to argue about a positive energy drug rehabilitation film? Those who dared to argue were desperate.
Whether it was the audience or the industry, they could comment on the acting skills of the actors and had mixed opinions on the quality of the film, but they could not say that Jiang Ting chose the wrong subject matter.
The promotional Apple’s website and Apple TV behind Apple Company gave the green light to promote Jiang Ting’s film in various ways.
No one even knew how Jiang Ting got in touch with them, but they helped promote the film “Poison Flower” without leaving any trace.
From childhood to adulthood, everyone knows the familiar slogan ‘Stay away from drugs. Cherish life’. The country is also promoting the harm of drugs in all aspects and persuading people to stay away from drugs.
However, there are always drug dealers all over the country, and the number of people addicted to drugs in China is a considerable number. The domestic fight against drug trafficking and drug use is still on a long road of struggle.
Domestic movies on the theme of combating drug use and combating drug trafficking in the entertainment industry have been filmed to death.
But Jiang Ting unexpectedly started from the aspect of drug rehabilitation and answered the already filmed theme from another angle, which immediately made people feel refreshed.
The reversal of the Easter egg at the end made people’s scalps numb and their pupils shook.
After watching the film, many viewers had only one sentence echoing in their minds: This was the flavor of Jiang-style movies.
Among the several micro-films shot by Jiang Ting, both the audience and the industry like “Reverse Wheel”.
The former was because the film itself was of high quality, and it had educational significance, criticizing school violence and domestic violence, and was widely sought after by society; the latter was because the ending was unexpected and shocking.
Her first micro-film “Demon Life” was more for the audience’s fans to enjoy watching various blockbusters with special effects, but it received mixed reviews from the industry.
Not to mention “Green Tea and Rogue”. Although the current total film score had climbed from 6.3 to 7.4, it was still not as good as “Reverse Wheel” with a total score of 7.8, which was enough to show the various problems in the film itself.
It was not until the appearance of “Poison Flower” that people once again saw the Jiang-style movies that had once been praised by audiences and the industry.
The whole movie told how much pain the female lead suffered in order to quit drugs.
Her parents, husband, and daughter died. She became neither human nor ghost, skinny, schizophrenic, and like a madman.
She used all her strength to quit her drug addiction with great difficulty.
However, in the Easter egg, the female lead was shown to be suffering from a drug addiction and relapsing into drugs.
The audience was immediately frightened and their hair stood on end. It was creepy and shocking.
This was a Jiang Ting-style movie with a strong reversal of emotions produced by Jiang Ting herself.
Less than 20 hours after the movie was broadcast, the number of views on the Apple website exceeded 100 million at 7 o’clock in the evening, and the data was directly broken.
The second place, Lu Qian’s “The Great Reversal”, only broke 30 million, and it was criticized more than before.
Apple TV joined various publicity channels and spent money crazily on publicity, which determined to make this movie known to everyone and a must-see for everyone.
From time to time, real cases around netizens were exposed on the Internet.
A female Weibo blogger with the Weibo name “Ren Huang Bu An” posted a Weibo that became a hot search.

It really could’ve been a great thriller… but that final ‘Stay away from drugs. Cherish life.’ slapped on at the end? Tch. Suddenly the whole movie feels like one big PSA. Like, that’s what this was building up to??
Honestly, if the entire message gets reduced to a single preachy line like that, it just kills the impact for me. I wanted a movie, not a campaign ad. Is the MC running for office??
At this point, I think I preferred Green Tea and Rogue. Say what you want, but at least the beginning of that one actually hooked me, and the characters had something going on. This one? I’m struggling to feel the excitement that everyone else is talking about.
The mc shouldn’t have included the saying at the end ’cause it ruined the entire play and also we get it, even if you don’t put the message we know what’s the movie is implying from the very first start when it showed the fl is on drugs. Everyone will know that the movie is showing the impact of drugs on life and the mc don’t have to emphasize it by putting the message at the end. It just made it look like a simple movie or a campaign.
