As fans, we also hope he will take on a modern romance drama for his next role and we are quite aligned with Chinese…
I just want to point out that his modern dramas are very well received, especially internationally. His three modern dramas, Our Secret, HL and TWOT, have each accumulated over a billion views on TikTok (not only HL), along with many millions of views on YouTube.
If his agency is strategic enough, they should seriously consider supporting him in taking on a modern romance drama for his next role.
I’m not making this up, here is the proof from YouTube:
when will zheyuan do modern romance drama? 😭 it's been 2 two years. twot was heart breaking i really want him…
As fans, we also hope he will take on a modern romance drama for his next role and we are quite aligned with Chinese fans who strongly wish for him to take a break from costume dramas and see him in a modern one. We hope his agency will take the fans’s requests into consideration and accept a modern role for him.
As for VS or his next drama, let’s wait and see. Joining VS is fine once his condition improves but for a new drama, I hope his team will find a good one.
I was scrolling through the comments to get to know Chen Zheyuan more, and I remembered there was an account maybe…
Do you mean JFJ? I’m not sure about her, it seems she deleted her account, as she mentioned before that she needed to concentrate on her exam. I assume she needs some time for her own life. I want her back too, but it’s her life, so it’s up to her. Once she’s ready, she can come back anytime.
By the way, I’m also a longtime fan of his...lol. If you want to know anything, please don’t hesitate to ask. I may not know everything about him but I’ll try my best to answer. 😉
I know! It’s so painful to see him go through such an unfortunate event, only to find out that so much of his effort was wasted. But thinking positively, he gained valuable experience working with a veteran actress (I don’t care about the negative comments) and he did everything he needed to do and promised. He himself never complains, so as fans, all we can do is support him and hope for the best.
I just found out that his screen time is only about 25–30%, so I’m not that excited about this drama anymore. I’ll still watch it, but I honestly don’t know what to expect.
It was his former manager who didn’t screen the project properly before handing it to him. I really hope the new manager will do what needs to be done from now on.
He would go back to Shenzhen to stay with his mom, but he’s still in Beijing. I’m not sure if he’ll go back during this Western New Year but he usually returns home for Chinese New Year.
Yes, please! But I'm hoping he'll be with a female lead with an unproblematic fan base. 🤞
But for now, let’s just watch Yuanyuan with Jingyi first, I can’t wait. Their behind the scenes moments are so sweet. They laugh a lot together and Yuanyuan clearly loves teasing her and making her laugh. It’s so cute. They’re obviously having such a great time filming the drama together. Ahhhh, I want to watch it ASAP!

Oh my god, this! I understand why top billing is such a huge issue in China and why fans get so anxious about it. Actors often get insulted for taking second billing even when they’re clearly the ML or FL like, WTF?
Why is this even a thing in the first place? Whoever invented this nonsense deserves a special place in hell for forcing actors to live with so much unnecessary stress. Instead of worrying about the script or the quality of the production team, the first thing they have to worry about is whether they’ll get top billing or not… seriously.
Even Bai Lu mentioned in a recent interview that because of this ridiculous, pain-in-the-ass billing system, she can’t work with some actors she wants to collaborate with(I wonder who, LOL). The queen said it out loud, so brave! Love her (just not her idiot, big-mouth boss!).

Haha, I’m getting really tired of fan wars 😑 They seem to spread from Weibo to MDL and show up in so many threads. It’s honestly terrifying.
K-dramas don’t really have this kind of issue. They’re much more professional, no spreading nonsense rumors before a drama even airs. The cast is officially announced and there’s no need to argue over who’s first or second, it’s just ML and FL, the storyline, and that’s it.
EP1 has 1.3 million views on the iQIYI official YouTube channel and another 1.3 million views on the iQIYI Philippines channel.

Hidden Love EP1: 27 million views and the most popular clip on the Youku English channel.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guO5E88iiYA&t=2250s
Actually #1-#3 are all HL clips 😁
Our Secret EP1: 16 million views on the Mango TV YouTube channel and the 3rd most popular clip on that channel.

TWOT EP1: 5 million views on the iQIYI Philippines YouTube channel and the most popular clip on that channel.

And these are just a few examples. Our Secret and TWOT are not available on Netflix where dramas usually reach a wider audience.
We hope his agency will take the fans’s requests into consideration and accept a modern role for him.
I’m kind of lazy to check Weibo today.

The CZY drought is so real, man!

Let’s wait for Yuanyuan’s new dramas together… yay 😆

C-ent is really exhausting in this regard…
