I can't help but feel sad after watching this movie

First of all, the role played by the skinny Jake doesn't look like a good guy at first glance. The whole person has a dark atmosphere, which is integrated with the tone of this film forever in the dark. The protagonist of the story is a deranged entrepreneur, so dark that the audience doesn't like him. I admire this movie for daring to create such a thoroughly bad guy as the main character.
At the beginning of the film, it was explained that the protagonist was a thief and told us that he would do anything to make money. Then when he was selling scraps to the old version of the recycle bin, bla bla bla said a lot to promote himself, and was dismissed by the old version "I'm not going to hire a thief!" Seeing the protagonist's expression, I was thinking: ordinary people have long been embarrassed, but obviously we are so inhumane, how could the protagonist be so easily injured? Later, through the collection of news materials began to taste the sweetness, the intelligent protagonist began to aggressively want to expand his career. First, I found an assistant, and then I wanted to climb up to the female boss of the TV station. The protagonist promotes himself to the female boss of the TV station again, and even makes an appointment. Here I am really shocked by his guts, how thick his face is, and I am ashamed for him when a bunch of self-righteous fur theories learned on the Internet are brought out. It is simply a replica of Luo Yufeng in real life! Not only does he like to play that trick, but he also believes in it, and he has to impose it on others.
Then our protagonist with extremely strong self-esteem was finally hit, and the first-hand news was snatched by competitors. With the character of the protagonist who suddenly smothers you behind the reluctance, I once thought that the competitor's car accident was planned by him. He even wondered if he was behind the homicide case.
The climax of the story is in the shootout at the back. I really sweated. For the first time, I felt that the car chase scene was so exciting, and the realistic scenes were different from exaggerated action films. The few shots in the middle made me scream. Finally, after seeing the protagonist in order to punish his assistant and kill him, I was completely disappointed with the protagonist.
The whole film ruthlessly satirized the media people, and by the way, blackened the business management set. In this regard, this movie is really a dick!
