Evaluation of the work

The reason why the film "A Bite of China" is popular is first of all that its selection of materials is highly popular. The so-called "food and sex are also good", regardless of class. , people of all nationalities and ages are inseparable from food.

So it can gain wide recognition and a broad audience base. Secondly, it has humanistic sentiments throughout.
