Daffodils

That's true, even the gestures are similar 😂

Very well said! and we even have a 10 minutes trailer showing us a summary of the series!!!

Maybe to mention to people that bring drama from the Chinese platforms: Even top productions in China are ignored by the majority of Chinese people. The majority of Chinese people are really not that interested in showbiz and they don't know the "stars" , and this is not just the older generation. I recently asked one of our younger Chinese students if she has watched The Untamed, she told me she has heard about it, she kind of know who Wang Yibo was but not even recognised Xiao Zhan!?and the fandoms in China -who are a tiny fraction of the Chinese population - go to war for them. These artists are top star in the ent industry, they are in the Forbes list of China but even a well educated girl was so no interested. I could tell you a number of examples of this. First hand accounts. Now a small project like ABO, probably 99.9% there have not hear about it. Having said that, the government has a serious "beef" with the media platforms like Iqiyi, Youku, Tencent etc that have been under government scrutiny because their business models. Yesterday resolution was about tax control of this platforms and not about broadcasting content. So crossing fingers, as long as it is not within China and only watch by a minority via foreign VPN I don't think there is much motive to do something drastic.

No at all, but they look like twins!!!

I do the same. I can't believe the awful BLs that Thailand released in a year. I simply don't watch them. My time is precious, why I am going to be aggravated by a series that I am not even going to watch!!!

It is a regulation on tax control of those platforms, at any point broadcast content is mentioned.

Thank you. I have made a search and the only regulation that I found the NRTA emitted on 18 August has to do with the increase and monitoring of taxes on the international platforms. We need a link to the official document. It is all online. URL: http://www.nrta.gov.cn/col/col161/index.html

Rakhamn there is nothing to apologise and reason to hide your comment. I am 100% behind this series, but for me you are making valid points. Comments like yours should not be criticised because they contribute to a healthy conversation. Having a discerning mind is not hate.

I live in UK and it is impossible to try to register. So I don't have an account there, but my Chinese friends could look for me, but I am not even know what are you talking about, which Weibo official page, the ABO one, the NongJiang one?

By typing what exactly???

Could you share the link to the "Weibo official page" so I can verify with my friends in China.

I will delete mine too. I visit Red Note and on the contrary just now somebody was asking what was going on in Weibo and where those comments about fighting were coming from. Somebody say, if there is a real problem Sisters Nong would have done a live and they have not done so.

Another thing to bear in mind is that the anti-China block will use any news to make China look even worse that is looking at the moment in relation to LGBTQ+ issues. In all honesty, the community there is not interested in BLs but in addressing other community needs

I am going to heaven 🙏😇

Haters, trolls, they find the perfect place in MDL because there is not proper moderation.

It sounds like a rumour and with all respect to go to Hello Saturday you have to be a high profile actor and he is not.

One of them is a lawyer. They cannot claim ignorance

This does not come from an official source. but if it is true is the worse case scenario.

BL actors banning - You may have read a previous post about this. There is no official confirmation of this, no new guidelines from the censhorhip agency. However, some probably did not know that In 2022, Beijing-area streaming platforms (iQIYI, Youku, Tencent Video) agreed to ban danmei adaptations entirely. Completed projects like Immortality were shelved indefinitely. They have been warned and I guess this is why they stopped broadcasting ABO even though was for international audience. The most serious is that this year more than 20 female authors of BL (danmei) novels were arrested, and some convicted, under laws targeting obscene or pornographic material. Really the Sisters Nong are playing with fire here. Something that it does puzzled me is how they dare to do live in Weibo (Chinese platform) for Chinese audience s (as is all in Chinese without translation) when in theory these audience are not allowed to watch BLs? Weibo allowed some international people to register but everything is pass through China's regulation. By the way, I cannot have a Weibo account from UK. It gets disconnected everytime that I apply. Is this not really tempting the wrap of the government?

Yes I have a looked at this, this does not come from an official source
