Lai Feng, a professor at the Imperial Film Academy, updated a long analysis article on his intranet: "A Bite of the Tongue" In terms of editing techniques, because of its use of narrative montage (when different shots are joined together, It often produces meanings that the individual shots do not have when they exist alone. For example, the shot of Chaplin driving the workers into the factory gate is connected with the shot of the driven sheep; the shot of Pudovkin melting the glaciers in spring , and the shots of workers’ demonstrations are connected together to make the original shots show new meanings. This is the montage technique), which makes the whole film more storytelling and watchable.

In the first episode "The Gift of Nature", a total of 6 ingredients were introduced, namely matsutake, winter bamboo shoots, Nuodeng ham, lotus root, Chagan Lake fish and sea fish. Each ingredient has an independent story, and each A story also uses the timeline to make the ingredients coherent from finding-cooking-tasting.

The use of lens language makes the narrative idea clearer and makes it easier for the audience to understand.

The application of parallel montage under the characteristics of different places at the same time, compares the same place in different seasons and different places in the same season. Under the strong stimulation of rich food materials, it shows that our country is vast and rich in resources. .

"Mr. He, in the past few days, "A Bite of Heaven" produced by your company has been screened everywhere, and the click-through rate has set a new record. In your opinion, why is this documentary successful?".

"There are actually many reasons for this. For example, unlike traditional gourmet shows, "A Bite of China" adopts a wide range of geographical jumps, and does not divide it by cuisine. Instead, each episode has its own protagonist.
