We asked you to make an anti-corruption film, but you made one in the name of the people!

The most lively section was the Weibo comment section.

"I just came out of the movie theater, and my legs are still weak. Not from being scared, but from lingering fear. Last month, I almost went to northern Myanmar. A friend online said that a casino there was hiring customer service staff with a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan, including room and board and reimbursement for airfare. I was even ready to book the tickets, but then I felt something was wrong and asked a few more questions, and then the other party blocked me. After watching the movie, I realized that it wasn't something wrong, it was a lifesaver."

This comment was pushed to the top and received over a million likes.

"My cousin went to northern Myanmar last year and hasn't come back. The family reported it to the police, who said he's there but they can't rescue him. My aunt cries every day, and her hair has turned completely white. Today I went to see this movie alone and cried three times during it. I wasn't crying for my cousin; he brought this on himself. I was crying for my aunt; she's truly pitiful."

"I work in human resources, and I've seen way too many of these recruitment scams. All that promises of high salaries overseas, international customer service, chartered flights—it's all a scam. Our company handles several cases of employees being cheated every year. If this film had been released sooner, how many fewer people would have been fooled?"

"That Manager Lu from Wang Chuanjun's company smiles and tells you about making money, then turns around and sends you to a water dungeon. That kind of person is the most terrifying; you never know when he'll turn on you. I'll be traumatized whenever I see Wang Chuanjun's face from now on."

"Zhang Yixing's acting has really improved. The look in his eyes when he was sitting in the police car at the end wasn't acting; it was genuine despair. I looked it up, and he specifically interviewed several people who had returned from northern Myanmar when he was filming this movie. No wonder his performance was so realistic."

"During the scene where Jin Chen's fingernails were pulled out, I kept my eyes closed the entire time. The girl next to me was so scared that she grabbed my hand. We didn't know each other, but neither of us let go until the scene was over."

Of course, there are also dissenting opinions.

Some questioned, "Isn't this kind of film a bit exaggerated? Is northern Myanmar really that terrifying?"

Someone replied to him: "Go search the news from the last two years and see how many people have been scammed, how many have had their legs broken, and how many families have spent hundreds of thousands to ransom their children. The reality is more terrifying than the movies. At least the movies have an ending, but in reality, many people don't even have a chance to come back."

Some people also asked, "Is Lin Mo working within the system? Doesn't he feel repressed making these kinds of films?"

Someone replied, "Suppressing it is the right thing to do; if you don't suppress it, you won't remember it."

......

Zhou Yang was in the audience for the 9 PM show.

He is 24 years old and works for a courier company. He doesn't go to the movies very often.

The reason he came today is because of his friend Li Zhiyuan.

Li Zhiyuan was from the same hometown as him; the two grew up together and had a very close relationship.

Three months ago, Li Zhiyuan suddenly became unreachable.

He doesn't reply to WeChat messages, doesn't answer phone calls, and stops updating his Moments.

Zhou Yang thought he had changed his number and didn't pay much attention.

Last month, Li Zhiyuan suddenly called him from an overseas number.

On the other end of the phone, Li Zhiyuan sounded excited: "Yangyang, I have some good news for you. I found a job here, it's 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a month, room and board included, and I get a commission at the end of the month. Do you want to come? I'll buy you the plane ticket."

Zhou Yang was tempted at that moment.

He earns 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a month, but his current salary is only 6,000 yuan.

He asked Li Zhiyuan what his job was exactly, and Li Zhiyuan said, "It's customer service, answering phones and typing, it's very easy."

Zhou Yang asked again, "Where?"

Li Zhiyuan said, "Northern Myanmar."

Zhou Yang hesitated. He had heard about the telecom fraud in northern Myanmar, but Li Zhiyuan's story sounded too real, with a laugh in his voice, making it seem like he wasn't suffering.

After hanging up the phone, he struggled for several days, torn between the high salary of 30,000 to 40,000 yuan and the unease in his heart.

In the end, he decided to wait and didn't agree immediately.

Today he went to see "All for the Winner," as part of a company team-building event—the boss said this movie was a must-see, and the company paid for it for all colleagues.

Fifteen minutes into the movie, Zhou Yang's hands started shaking.

Twenty minutes later, he gripped his phone tightly in his hand, his knuckles turning white.

Seeing Pan Sheng being tricked into the park, seeing the wall, the barbed wire, and the guard tower, and seeing Manager Lu smilingly say that the rules were simple—make money—he felt as if something was gripping his heart.

The customer service representative Li Zhiyuan mentioned is the same kind of scammer from the movie.

The "relaxed" attitude Li Zhiyuan speaks of is like the movie trope of being beaten for failing to meet targets; the "high salary" Li Zhiyuan speaks of is like the movie trope of going crazy to succeed.

When the movie ended, Zhou Yang sat motionless in his seat, not even noticing the people next to him leave.

He had only one thought in his mind—thank goodness I didn't go, thank goodness I didn't go, thank goodness I didn't go.

......

The hype surrounding the premiere of "All or Nothing" didn't dissipate the next morning; in fact, it intensified.

On the trending topics list, six topics were related to this movie.

The Douban rating rose from 8.6 to 8.7, and the number of ratings exceeded 50,000.

Around 7 a.m., the conference room of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security was filled with smoke.

Director Wang sat in the main seat, with several cigarette butts piled up in the ashtray in front of him.

Sitting next to him were Deputy Director Liu from the Criminal Investigation Bureau, Section Chief Sun from the Publicity Bureau, and several heads of relevant departments. Each person's expression was different—some were excited, some were solemn, and some were looking down at their phones checking public opinion.

Director Sun spoke first: "Director Wang, the data from last night is in. It scored 8.7 on Douban, 9.5 on Maoyan, and 9.4 on Taopiaopiao. There were over 200 million discussions across the internet, with 91% of the reviews being positive."

He put down his phone and added, "This film has a reputation that ranks among the top three domestic films in the past three years."

Director Wang nodded without saying anything.

Deputy Director Liu chimed in, "Director Wang, it's not just about reputation. Starting early this morning, several public security bureaus in our border provinces have been reporting cases. Three young men from Yunnan province had already booked tickets to southern Yunnan, planning to smuggle themselves out of the country. After watching a movie last night, they voluntarily went to the police station to report to the police. They said that after watching the movie, they realized what northern Myanmar was like and were too scared to go."

Director Wang looked up at Deputy Director Liu: "Three?"

"We've received three reports so far," Deputy Director Liu paused, "but there might be more. The data from other provinces hasn't been fully compiled yet."

Director Wang stubbed out his cigarette. His voice wasn't loud, but every word was clear: "One movie can stop three people from going to northern Myanmar. That's more effective than handing out a thousand leaflets or giving a hundred lectures."

The meeting room was silent for a few seconds.

Director Sun then asked, "Director Wang, what about today's report to the higher-ups...?"

Director Wang waved his hand: "Wait for my news."

At 8:30, Director Wang went upstairs with the public opinion report from last night and the data reported by the border provinces.

On the top floor of the building, the corridors were carpeted in dark colors, so that even the sound of footsteps was absorbed.

The highest-ranking official in the Ministry of Public Security is surnamed Meng, holding the rank of Deputy Police Commissioner. He is in charge of core operations such as criminal investigation, narcotics control, and economic crime investigation, and his words carry significant weight within the public security system.

Director Wang straightened his collar at the door and raised his hand to knock.

Once inside, he stood there and gave a detailed report on the premiere last night, the public opinion data this morning, and the incident of three young men on the border voluntarily reporting to the police.

Minister Meng did not speak immediately after listening.

After a few seconds of silence, he stood up, walked to the window, and turned his back to Director Wang.

"Old Wang, I believe you that this movie can stop people from going to northern Myanmar. But we can't rely on just one movie. The movie's popularity will fade, but the scammers won't stop." Minister Meng turned around. "So you need to think carefully about how to extend the movie's impact. It's not just about letting people see it once, but about making them remember it."

Director Wang nodded: "I understand."

Minister Meng walked back behind his desk, opened a drawer, took out a red folder, and handed it to Director Wang: "Take a look at this."

Director Wang took it, opened the first page, and paused, startled. Several lines of text were printed on it—

"Decision on recognizing and rewarding the creative team behind the film 'All or Nothing'".

He looked up at Minister Meng, whose voice was calm and unhurried: "I've spoken with the Supreme People's Procuratorate, and Prosecutor Zhao agrees. Tell Lin Mo to do a good job; there's a long road ahead."

Director Wang closed the folder and stood up straight: "Yes, sir!"

After leaving the minister's office, Director Wang stood in the corridor and flipped through the red folder again.

The commendation decision was short, but the two red seals at the end carried great weight—one from the Ministry of Public Security and the other from the Supreme People's Procuratorate.

He closed the folder, took out his phone, and sent a message to Prosecutor Zhao: "Old Zhao, the higher-ups have made a decision: joint commendation. Xiao Lin is going to get a big reward this time."

Zhao Jian's reply came quickly, consisting of only four words: "It's only right."

Director Wang sent Lin Mo another message, even shorter: "Little Lin, good news, I'll tell you later."
