summer season
Although the beginning of autumn has arrived, the new summer movies that have been scheduled for release recently have the potential to be like big pearls and small pearls falling on a jade plate——
August 16 "Rebirth"
August 16 "Detective Conan: The Million Dollar Star"
August 23rd "Grandma's Grandson"
August 23rd "Reverse Scale"
August 27 "Traveling Together"
August 31 "All Suspects"
Among them, the one that attracts the most attention is undoubtedly Shen Teng's first starring role in the gangster crime film "Reverse Scale". Due to the "extremely long wait" of "Catch a Baby" on the box office list this summer, it is very likely that Shen Teng will still be fighting against Shen Teng by the end of August.
According to Beacon Professional Edition, the AI-predicted total box office of "Catch a Baby" is 3.363 billion, which is slightly less than Shen Teng's Spring Festival movie "Flying Life 2" (3.398 billion).
Now, "Inverse Scale" suddenly joins the battle at the end of the summer season. It seems that whether Shen Teng (Ma Chenggang ver.) can defeat Shen Teng (Zhang Chi ver.) depends on the performance of Shen Teng (Zun Fei ver.)!
→ Shen Teng's first gangster crime movie "Reverse Scale" is scheduled to be released on August 23
→ "Detective Conan: The Million Dollar Star" is scheduled to be released on August 16

After 6 episodes, the male protagonist had not yet penetrated into the enemy camp. There was too much foreshadowing in the early stage, which consumed the audience's patience. Although Zhang Fengyi and Zhang Songwen's acting skills were good enough, the young actors were in poor condition. In general, the pacing of the series is not engaging enough.

Especially in the relationship between the characters, there were many flaws, such as female rivals, scumbag men, Love Brain... Although it is a criminal investigation drama, it ignores basic common sense and all the configurations are too crude. It is like an eye-catching Internet giant at a certain stage. It is a pity for Hu Jun's acting skills.
"Forensic Pioneer 6"
The "Forensic" series seems to have no intention of stopping. Since the restart of this series, although the quality of the series is far inferior to the previous three, this IP has still earned enough attention. The sixth part still stars Bosco Bosco, Yuen Weihao, Cai Jie, Jiang Zuman, Fu Jiali, etc., and is written and directed by Zhong Shujia and the old man Huang Guohui who have returned to TVB.

The current popularity of the series is similar to that of previous Youku TVB dramas, hovering around the top ten in various lists, mainly relying on the old fans of this IP. However, "Forensic 6" has also been complained by fans of the drama after it was aired. The feeling that the forensic team used to solve the case with evidence no longer appears. It is more about the police reciting the results. There is no professional knowledge to advance the plot. The case was discussed in the laundry room, and plots such as romance, romance, police gossip, etc. also accounted for too much. There were too many emotional lines, and there were speechless superstitious speeches. The audience didn’t know what drama they were watching. Bosco Bosco and Yuan Weihao, these two TVB old man seems to be out of shape.
