Yes, Drexel is supppper expensive. Dunno how anyone affords it tbh. Maybe a friend gave it to her. She has a lot of close friendships and will use the things she likes for years.
I don’t think I’ve seen that episode. I have heard her use English as a host though.
I believe Qiong Yao is an authoress if I’ve understood correctly. Her books have turned into dramas and I think she may have produced some too. Apparently legend has it, the actresses in her dramas had to be able to cry beautifully.

The love triangle was one-sided. It was more a triangle between Yezi, A’Rui’ and Yu Xiuming . YWY was more of a triangle of do I betray YXM or not. The show lost a lot of its tension because of this cut too.
If what I read is correct, her powers are used to save YXM. Outside of that she has her premonitions but some of those scenes were cut too.
Tbh most 95 flowers don’t have acting skills. Neither does 85. It’s mostly the 90s and and 80s and older.

Definitely. What kills me is people say she’s even more beautiful in real life, that photos don’t capture her well. And in Challenger League Xiao Ran is really invincible in looks. FBB made sure her makeup was on point. There are no dead ends no matter the angle or hairstyle and the makeup is quite simple too so no one can say she relied on it. I don’t get how anyone can say she’s ugly… her only problem is in Xie Ze’s lens and I suspect he purposefully shoots her that way because everyone else gets an okay shot, even passerby. I mean look at the Yu Zheng makeup test shot and she’s so gorgeous is those photos even with such a hairstyle and makeup. And in ToDoI, there is the 360 degree jumping angle-there’s no dead ends there. When she’s chubby she still looks good too. Directors might have choose angles more carefully but she’s still beautiful.

SJFY was supposed to be badass. They cut most of the scenes of Bai Lu plotting to kill Yu Xiuming 😭 I’m still so angry about it everytime I watch clips. I think Bai Lu is so beautiful, she’s my favourite heroine. She holds all those different looks so well. I think there was supposed to be some sword fighting… probably not a lot and not very good but they cut it. I really loved the showdown scene. I thought Xiao Ran was so gorgeous in her armor and then while recovering . I really don’t understand why fans weren’t going crazy over such a beautiful look. They actually seemed annoyed which was wild. I get that the lady dresses were pretty but Xiao Ran looked as beautiful as a video game character. 😭😭Drinking the medicine has a shot that really doesn’t lose to vaudeville starlets.
There was the rumor that he was going to shoot that assassin drama PXR was rumored to star in but that’s passed to a 95flower.

I was surprised to see the Drexel hat!!! It’s not as big name as Temple or PennState. It’s so random but the school does have a good color scheme lol.
I can’t remember which country it is but I love that pic and some of her other younger pics. She seems like she’s always been cute in some way😂
Yeah Ma Su is really a tragedy. Working with good actors grows skills in younger actors. I always feel that the reason Xiao Ran cries so beautiful is that she was brought up by Qiong Yao girls 🤣But I am glad Xiao Ran worked with artists like Ma Su though. She seemed to really look out for her in Challenger League so I’ll always have a good impression of her.
The last video was the one with the weird hat.

Honestly, I feel people forget she was personally selected by FBB. FBB isn’t going to choose someone without the qualifications.

Yes, the movements were fluid and you could tell she was trying to make them graceful. Someone said she was probably still learning the dance. Anyway fans don’t care😂 Everyone’s like”I’ll humor her” 🤡🤣

Yes, I agree. She’s got old school looks has always been my thought which is why the newer makeup doesn’t always suit her now when her looks in the past were pretty much all perfect.
I think her acting ability comes working closely with Ma Su in her early years. Ma Su was an awarding actress. She has also worked with Siqin Gaowa as well as took acting classes. I think that’s why Xiao Feng was so natural.
Haha her English is super cute. I noticed she used more in her last video and I wonder if it’s because she knows she has foreign fans. I think she studied abroad in a Nordic country when sage was in uni.

My girl don’t come out too often but when she does, she don’t leave no crumbs😭🙌

Hahaha, wonder what he said to Xiao Ran after she started laughing. They look like they’re having lots of fun on the set.😂

Shots of Xiao Ran with I think the actor who may be her partner. I really like this plain yet delicate style:

Finally a shot of Xiao Ran putting those dancing lessons to use! Not quite in sync but the movements are really beautiful 🥹I really like the white clothes, it seems to suit her. Check out her moves in the link below:

Yeah, you really cant choose this show lightly . I did and got my soul rocked😂 I don’t really get sad watching things but I cried til I choked and I still get sad thinking of Xiao Feng😭

No, and that’s the most bitter part of the story. In the book, he’s the antagonist and doesn’t use her like in the drama. The drama has made him the protagonist but it can’t erase the essence of the book, especially with the grooming/deception storyline they added. He destroys her and nothing happens to him other than “loneliness”.
The cute, cheerfulness- I think this the brilliance of GBMP. Xiao Feng will be a completely different person by the end but the transformation is so clear, it can be seen in clips with little context. It’s also this transformation that I think makes Xiao Feng stick out- yes, she grows up but it’s at an excruciating cost. She may be a vase as she says in the show but who can bear such a beautiful and delicate one being smashed to pieces…

Money. The HBO Go offer probably included enough to pay a good chunk towards the investment in the drama. Subscriptions are where the money is at. Youtube with its freemium options probably doesn’t offer enough with the view rate I’m currently seeing.

Sese has been whitewashed in the drama. She tried to kill Xiao Feng in the book and tries to get Xiao Feng in trouble multiple times in the drama, there’s nothing innocent about her other than Li Chengyin played her (which in the book isn’t even a big deal because they were playing each until she went too far). I much prefer Xiao Feng who is kind and doesn’t intentionally hurt anyone. She’s only like 16-17 at this point too, younger than Sese, and in an unwanted and loveless marriage. Why people think she should just grin and bear it is such a mystery to me. She’s in an abusive relationship after growing up in a loving and caring environment where she was free as a bird, how could anyone dislike a girl in such circumstances trying to keep her independent spirit ? 😂”Lemme go get drunk and cause trouble for my ain’t sh*t husband”> “lemme be a doormat and step on other woman for a trash man” any day of the week for me😂

The tragedy is the destruction of the female lead as the story progresses. I wouldn’t recommend this show if this point is a deal breaker. The beauty of GBMP is that it’s not a standard cookie cutter show with everything resolved perfectly. In some ways it’s quite realistic-so many women had endings like this but in GBMP, Xiao Feng gets to be more than a few lines on a piece of paper.

Hahaha,
It’s okay. I think a lot of fat shrimp are like this. I could really talk about her all day too😂 I really don’t understand why some people can’t see why she’s a top actress. I think she’s one of the best from 1985 onwards in terms of looks and abilities. And definitely the best in the 90s onwards for drama actresses. All of her characters feel so alive.
Bai Luo is only minutes but is so full. I’m really happy a lot of people liked the cameo. Yu Zheng dramas have such difficult looks but she actually looked super cute in the makeup test photos. It made me wonder why Yu Zheng used such an ugly one at first.
Xie Ze is the director for JJL and RoaTF much to fat shrimp’s pain😩. I really don’t understand him though.
And yes, her dad does have distinct features. She’s been asked if she’s mixed but she’s always maintained she’s not, so I go with what she says.
Although I don’t mind her cameos, I really hope she gets some meaty roles in the upcoming months.

She didn’t listen to his instructions. I’ve heard that’s the reason that he didn’t choose her. GJM is strict. She was supposed to stay looking down but looked up when she hissed. I think the move made the performance hers. The original is more ethereal and ghostly while Xiao Ran’s feels more human, closer to a vengeful spirit.
It taught her a valuable lesson-to listen to the director. Which is why I don’t agree with fans who scold her for listening Xie Ze. It feels like they forgot about that incident.
They’re telling her to dye her hair black because some people feel costume Cdramas of any type should have only black hair. I’m not sure about her hair color. Her parents don’t have brown hair. The hair in her baby photos looks dark too but a lot of her adult pics from uni onwards seem to be that brown.
BTW, did you see her cameo as Bai Luo? It was super cute and pretty

Yes, they met there but GJM also used to work with FBB. I was angry when he didn’t choose her in that show but he’s been good to her in other ways since then. GJM only loves beauty so the fact he keeps working with her says something. I too think it would be nice for Xiao Ran to be in her own group but I think she’s try to wait for better quality shows. I think doing cameos in the interim is smart though I don’t agree with all the pressure some of her fans put on her to do them. She gets to try different roles, directors, and makeup without the stress of supporting a show. It also puts her up against other stars for comparison which is not bad when it comes to understanding what makes her unique. And in some of the bigger shows, she gets more exposure/shows her popularity. I think she has a lot of quiet fans, fans who don’t do social media, and people who will watch her passing through her show’s casually. That’s the only way to describe some of her stats. I also feel like her cameo in Yu Zheng’s drama and the Reuters from GJM brought some of her older fans back into activity. There’s another Reuter hidden in a blog page:
https://m.weibo.cn/detail/4963967447602932
The behaviour of some fans in the last few days really disgusted me though. GJM is really picky, especially about looks. There’s no way he’d allow a messy look on purpose. You could tell from the Reuters it was a filter issue as the hair was the same color in all the other shots, But the fans let an instigator who basically took of their fans come and wreck havoc that ruined the atmosphere again. Thank goodness the 2nd Reuters was released so everyone shut up but I wish some fans weren’t so easily led or had a bit more faith.
