In the pyrotechnics-filled Guangfu Qilou Old Street, a mysterious "zombie crisis" caused by delicious food is quietly unfolding.
The heroine Bao Xiajiao, known as "Thirteen Dumplings", is the leader of a zombie group and runs a traditional tea shop. She has strict requirements on the quality of shrimp dumplings and insists on using the intangible cultural heritage quality inspection standard "bamboo skewer to poke pleats" to make shrimp dumplings. The male protagonist Lu Yunteng, codenamed "Brother Yuntun", is a human holding a thermos and wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He is a commissioner of the Special Investigation Section of the Food and Drug Administration.
The story begins with the genetic mutation caused by the NT-7 preservative in Huang Kee Food Factory, which gave the zombies special habits and required them to consume natural ingredients on a regular basis. It also caused them to retain their professional skills but lose their creativity. "Zombie leaders" naturally occur in the zombie group, and Bao Xiajiao becomes the leader because of his century-old experience.
In order to find out the truth, Bao Xiajiao and Lu Yunteng had to work together. While they have to deal with the obstacles of villains like Huang Bingquan, they have to deal with numerous crises such as the food package virus, intangible cultural heritage certification, and the forced demolition of arcades. During the process, there were weird scenes of zombies performing eight-stage dance in the morning party, and there was also an oolong incident of using ginger in milk as dishwashing liquid.
In this unique world, Cantonese culture and zombie elements collide wonderfully, with Cantonese sayings and food safety inspection procedures interspersed, showing a unique charm. Can they resolve the crisis and achieve cross-species symbiosis? Come and witness this wonderful adventure intertwined with the fragrance of tea and crisis!
Concept: Using a unique zombie theme as the shell, it presents the persistence and inheritance of traditional culture and the importance of food safety.
