Sensing a change for 'online films'

The term "online films" refers to movies released via the internet which are longer than an hour. These films, compared to ones screened in cinemas, entail lower costs and earn a lot of money from advertisements and pay-per-view services.

As a result of the low costs and good earning potential of these types of films, you now have a lot of low-quality works with vulgar content and shoddy remakes of hit movies entering the market.

However, an online detective film The Guilt recently released on Tencent's video-streaming platform could change people's views about online films.
