When Qin Guan handed in his thesis to Professor Martin, he found out that "Mean Girls" had lagged behind other films that had premiered during the same period. The distributor had scheduled the first screening during the first week of summer vacation, when Qin Guan and Cong Nianwei would be getting their diplomas.
They just wanted to meet the demands of their college and their parents. Qin Guan's film seemed pure and clean among all those violent Hollywood blockbusters.
The teen movie just focused on school love, which made it seem like a feeble flower amid the rustling autumn wind against the formidable crusade of the other blockbusters. Film critics began to badmouth it at first.
"This is Qin Guan's first commercial film. The award-winning actor's script-selecting criteria may be inversely proportional to his acting skills."
"I wonder how long 'Mean Girls' will hold out before it collapses. It has the weakest potential after all."
