The movie "Megalodon" is a Hollywood action sci-fi adventure blockbuster starring Jason Statham, Chinese actors Li Bingbing, Zhao Wenxuan, Cai Shuya, etc., and is currently being screened worldwide.
On the same day, Zhao Wenxuan and Cai Shuya formed the most cute star group, and interacted intimately with the giant whale shark of the Chimelong Ocean Kingdom, whether it was the cute Lolita Cai Shuya, or the burly uncle Zhao Wenxuan, in the background of the whale shark, they all looked quite "mini".

Cai Shuya, who bluntly said that when watching the movie, she was "scared to the stomach" by the megalodon shark on the screen, and at the beginning she did not dare to get close because she was afraid of whale sharks, and listened to the interesting science of Chimelong moving pipe experts, and only then did she have a new understanding of whale sharks and the deep sea world, and frankly said that her personal exploration was much more real and unforgettable than filming on the special effects green screen simulation.
According to animal experts, whale sharks are generally 9-12 meters long, up to 20 meters as long as megalodons; and whale sharks have a certified maximum weight of more than 12 tons, which can only be regarded as "lightweight opponents" compared with megalodon sharks weighing 70 tons; more importantly, whale sharks have a mild temperament, eating a large number of plankton and small fish, while carnivorous beasts of prey megalodon sharks have a surprising bite force of 20 tons, which can easily bite a whale into two bites, which can be said to be a well-deserved ocean overlord.
The two main creators also delve into the deep-sea world of the Whale Shark Pavilion, sit on a fully transparent glass boat, and watch more than 200 species of up to 20,000 rare fish such as whale sharks, manta rays, and sharks at close range.
It is understood that in addition to whale sharks, Zhuhai Chimelong Ocean Kingdom Whale Shark Museum also exhibits nearly 10 species of "shark star groups" with nearly 10 species of more than 100 "shark star groups" such as Lu's hammerhead shark, sand tiger shark, lead gray shark, nurse shark, striped bamboo shark, leopard shark and so on.
