yes, there was news, published 3 years ago on Aug 8, 2018 that there won't be season 2, it was an official announcement:

quote:
Grace's post on her weibo today 18-08-08: https://www.weibo.com/1267333247/GtHipEJ46
"Received too many fans' private messages, and now unified reply:
Although we have never given up, due to copyright and review and other factors, "Cambrian Period" should not have a second season. Thank you for your support and love for the Cambrian Period. Our team has been working hard and hope to make better projects."

Grace - the producer of "Cambrian Period"

so why start unnecessary rumours?
such posts as this of yours, I see it like scratching an open wound, what for? to raise vain hopes in people?

I know it's difficult to come to terms with it because I spent months seeking any confirmation of season 2 after I'd watched the drama, and when I finally found the confirmation that they had indeed intended to make s2 and even had promised it (!), they made this announcement, it was very painful to me, but it's been already 3 years since that time, we need to learn to move on...

because of Youku - they refused to invest in season 2
there was a script in the making for season 2 already, and they buried it all

I wrote about it:

probably if they had predicted how popular Neo would be in a few years, they wouldn't have made that mistake, their biggest mistake ever (!!!)

didn't you mean the People's Republic of China?
the evasive term in their dictionary "the enemy" is the Republic of China, it's not any "outer force" like some would suggest here.....

and Neo looks most handsome with no (or little) make-up, the make-up in ancient costume dramas is heavy and greasy (he had such in AGLM)

fans asked Neo on March 22 about any arrangements for joining a new filming group, he said there weren't any ("nothing currently")
and according to the shedule published by Neo's studio today, he's filming until April 6, and there is no further filming planned for this month

so this one - it was just a rumour
unless it's confirmed that Neo is in the cast, his name should disappear from the list above

according to the shedule published by Neo's studio today, he's filming for Our Times until April 6
will be also visiting several cities this month:
4.7 Zhengzhou, 4.18 Nanjing, 4.30 Chengdu - brand activities
4.24 Changsha - media activities (recording for Hunan TV)
no plans of joining next filming group in the nearest future

其余时间均为私人行程
如有更新另行通知
"the rest of the time is a private itinerary
if any updates available, there will be further notification"

these ones of today are better - Neo seen from the front:

Cai Bo Zhen and Wu Zhong Wen both imprisoned, and executed on the same day during the Chinese Civil War
well, Neo and Sophie is a good collaboration, and the wedding on the prison van - the episode must be a tear-jerker, so as long as it's not dubbed...

21-03-30 end of the month, Neo is still filming for "Our Times" (in Beijing now)
no news about next drama

Hou Ming Hao as Cai Bo Zhen 蔡博真 in the unit titled 《春之祭》 [Chun Zhi Ji]

Neo Hou plays Cai Bo Zhen 蔡博真 in the unit titled 《春之祭》 [Chun Zhi Ji] "The Rite of Spring"
(not Cai Fu Zhen, that's a mistake on the cast list above)
his poster: https://kisskh.at/photos/Rz0kP_3
he's paired with Sophie Zhang who plays Wu Zhong Wen, Cai Bo Zhen's wife

the shooting lasted several days: Feb 16 - Feb 21, 2021

21-03-30 Neo & Leo still shooting for the drama, recently they've been filming in Beijing
today's "reuters" video from the set: https://m.weibo.cn/detail/4620472953866107
(only their backs....haha)

the shooting should be finished soon (it was resumed after a short break when they were filming for FMG series in February (Neo) and March (Leo))

you mean HMH and YCY, yes

really? because that was just right at that time when it happened, i bet Neo wasn't at all in the mood for attending the recording of ep 10 on Jan 24 (he only posted a message to fans "are you guys OK", I cannot find it now, but I'm pretty sure I saw it around that time, I bet he was seeking comfort)

[btw, i edited my previous response about sanya, added another link to one more video of Neo at that time if you're interested to watch, for Chinese fans these things are easier to access because they can log to weibo and return to messages posted 3-5 years back, but for international fans who cannot access weibo, most of that info is just lost, and almost impossible to be dug up, so that's why i'm posting such things here on MDL, please don't feel offended if I sound a little harsh, but I also want some people to realize some things, or to think over some things, and also to learn more of Neo and to learn to be more curious about him]

so adorable in Summer's Desire :) a support role, but I really liked him

So Neo's and Chaoyue's goals are the same.

Neo's New Year's resolution for 2017 was that his mother (who often worked overtime at that time) would quit her job and rest at home, he was worried because she had serious health problems, and he promised to work hard to support her. He asked her for the handwritten letter with a promise that she would stop workking.

And in the latest interview for the magazine in 2021 Neo's said that his goals now are to buy a new house for his parents, and to buy a car for his father.

"Faith"was performed by Neo on piano in episode 5
