Completed first part of In the Name of the Brother, it's very good! Can you believe the amount of black water…
Agree, fact is fact, it's a good show with high quality. "Some people" are just too good at turning black into white and turn white into black. It's unfortunate the antis have better connections and power. In the past, Qin Shi Huang was once able to make people call a deer a horse. Now, "some people" can make people act blind and say good acting is bad acting, but bad acting is good acting.
I'm just glad YM doesn't market disgustingly like "some people". YM is very low key, and I know... ahem, "some people" market that they are low key people when they aren't. So when I say YM is low key, what I'm practically saying is she doesn't issue out billions of tabloids bragging how good she can act. I like how YM's acting is not pretentious, she leaves room for fans and non-fans to judge without force. That's enough for me to say she's very good. I don't like how "some people" try too hard and overact, their cocky marketing behavior is so forceful that it annoys people, if anyone says anything they send out fireflies out to bite people. It's hard not to suspect the fireflies of playing black marketing on ITNOTB but it's nice to see how generous YM is, she doesn't blame "some people" the way "some people" always blame her. Of course, by saying this, the fireflies will cry to death and even accuse me of being a water army of YM, but all I'm doing is commenting on a forum only, if I'm a water army I would've done more, I would've counterattack the nasty tabloids with titles like "Yang Mi doesn't understand poor people and offended them". As if no one can tell it's the poor fireflies that are most cocky about how good they are at pretending to look poor and poor, dirty, and crying to the point of dying. Rolling eyes!
Thank you for understanding my frustration! I just can't help but miss the past hopelessly. Actors back then put in all their trusts in the experts, no matter how the story change, the actors resiliently fulfill the director's visions. These days, who are acting like the experts? Netz. Or, could be some actresses themselves but they don't have confidence so they use their fans to teach directors how to make decisions. The reason why Chinese Paladin was able to do re-cast between Ady An and Esther smoothly was because actors back then know their place, they were resilient and respectful. At first, Ady was to play Ah Nu. It's possible that the role Yue Ru was originally set up to be hateful, but seeing chemistry between Ady and Hu Ge, it was a big game changer. During one of the early interviews when Ling'er was bathing in the pool, Hu Ge said in the interview that it's not only Liu Yifei that is beautiful, Ah Nu mei mei (must be Ady An) is not bad either. I'm guessing the writer must've changed things as they see fit from there. There was no noisy war like today, "you stole my screentime", or "I'm the main lead so the ML can only love me" and blah blah blah blah blah blah. In Chinese Paladin, when the writers and directors made these decisions, they had a vision for sure, they saw the potential of Hu Ge having chemistry with both ladies. They knew what will work and won't work. The actors have to cooperate and make the director's vision play out, not fight with the director about their own visions. Imagine Liu Yifei being a crybaby and sent out her fans to attack the director and Ady An, that will be very unprofessional of her, and those kind of attitudes can only exist today, back then, the directors can fire you for just being tardy! There are actresses like that today, which I won't name, and they have such power to control the directors as well as producers to make things their own way. But when they market they act pitiful that they have no power at all... no power but so gutsy to drag down the production unprofessionally??? Very questionable.
We lost so many good directors who are passionate in this field because their talents don't even matter anymore. Bad directors with no vision, only rely on idols with huge traffic, and they smear the better productions. Huge traffic often means "fake traffic", an actress might just buy her own traffic to go step on others so she can claim the best reputation for herself. We, the audience, get left with very shitty dramas, but the annoying fans will cry about how great some shitty things are to no end. The Chinese Paladin actors, or actors of Tangren back then, are able to have a very long career because of how professional everything was back then. Even support roles like Esther and Bryan Wong are unforgettable, everyone was a legendary actor.
A guy goes to a fairy island, married a princess, has amnesia and escorting her back to her kingdom... this storyline is cliche, but what people can't realize is Chinese Paladin was never famous for the storyline. Speaking of remakes, all of the previous "Stories of the Yang Clan" were all classics. When Tang Ren produced another remake of it, "Young Warriors" (historical), they used the same style and color grading from Chinese Paladin (xian xia). It became another classic, and perhaps, the last Yang Clan remake that will be watchable. People don't know how top notch the filming style of Chinese Paladin is. When I watched the behind the scenes footages, they got a serious team that knows their shits. While the camera was rolling, Liu Yifei was literally acting in front of 4-5 people, the lights controllers, they stood right next to her. It's nothing like today, so much space to yourself! If you look at any behind the scenes today, the actors have all the space to themselves, the director doesn't give a fudge about professional shadowing, the light can come from any direction as long as the source of light is bright enough and doesn't dim down the room. Other than the unbeatable cinematography, Liu Yifei actually revealed each day they received the script then quickly adjust to the script, it's not like today you know the whole plot and scripts and even slept on them many nights. I guess if some people understand their roles too well, they don't understand it at all, and if some people act too hard, it comes off fake. By receiving the script just a minute ago and you acting on it freshly, it might give off a more realistic acting style. Liu Yifei was beautiful, but there are people saying she is not beautiful enough for them, so it's unfair to say the success of Chinese Paladin was reliant on beauty. Hu Ge was also not that handsome by the way. Had it been today, there's a new actor with crooked teeth, all netz will talk about is how ugly he looks. The reason Hu Ge didn't get any criticism, this toxic culture did not exist until 2015 and beyond. Chinese Paladin came out in 2005. The truth is, whether someone is truly ugly or not, netz are not really netz, netz can be hired by competitors to say nasty things, even if someone is to be ugly for real, most of the real netz will not cyberbully, only a small group of bullies might exist. Now, the whole nation drops all their schoolwork or jobs to come online and bully celebrities appearances only, it is just not believable. Around 2012, Chinese dramas were not doing that well, and by 2015, directors got so lazy or too new in the field and untalented, that they don't give a fudge about quality. They just need to raise some idols that can create lots of traffic and buzz. The dramas we watch today will never in any way be comparable with Chinese Paladin, it's not because Liu Yifei's beauty is too hard to beat, or the actors are too good at acting, or the script was too good. It's because the entire team used to be extremely professional. It was a teamwork type of thing. Actors salary wasn't crazy back then, because they respect other workers. The lighting team matters, the martial arts staffs matter, the stand-ins matter, etc. Ever since 2015 and beyond, newer actresses came in and be charging insane salary! Cause she surpassed 20 billion views like nobody else. Dramas like NIF and Legend of Zhenhuan got low views at first, they saw what happened, and made their dramas surpass 20 billion views on their reruns the following year as well, and senior actors began to fight for even bigger salary than the noobs. It became a competition about views, fans, fanwars, traffic, etc. No longer about filming. To satisfy the actors with big salary, there is no such thing as light controller now. They don't even hire martial arts staffs either, fighting scenes now are ridiculous than childrens play. During Chinese Paladin, everyone would thought Hu Ge and Ady An know real martial arts in real life, it was that realistic!
Can someone enlighten me was he in love with both Female Leads ?
Of course! At first the 2nd FL was only a friend, but he broke up with the FL and the 2nd FL sacrificed a lot for him so he dated her. They even named their child after her.
My instinct is telling me, ZLY will disguise as Yang Zi or ZHHZ's fans next, create a war between the 2. ZHHZ's…
Yep! ZLY always hates those who landed the roles she wants. She literally pulled Li Sheng's shirt and drag her to the ground, scratched Li Sheng's hand and put on a sweet smile as if nothing happen, and dirtied the water bottle before letting her drink. That's how jealous she is.
She used to market "ZLY is queen, YM couldn't sit still" and now she's changing it to Yang Zi:
Just because Zhang Yimou is interested in working with Yang Zi. ZLY lost face after her fans bullied a famous writer, now she's going to accuse her fans of being fake fans disguised by Yang Zi's fandom. With ZLY's history of bullying, it's not hard to predict her same old moves.
I think she is Zhao Liying hater pretending Ju Jingyi fan. Now some ZLY fans fed up now they are doing some illogical…
Dude, you're going everywhere sticking up for ZLY. Who doesn't know she has the best disguising team? China knows she has the best disguising team, she got called out for it already. But internationally? No one cares about paying fans internationally. Unless it's ZLY, she wants to be an international star, everyone knows that.
https://i.pinimg.com/736x/cf/0a/ee/cf0aee733773ffd70068ad4798d4cca2.jpg Is that Li Chang Ge blogger within your disguising team, do you know them? Pretends to use Dilireba as a profile pic and username, but doesn't even like Dilireba. Always aiming at newer actresses with talents, like those of Xingfei and Bai Bingke. That blogger obviously wants to keep newer talents away from popularity.
JJY did use a double to ride on a horse, because horse riding can be extremely dangerous. About JJY using stand ins to stand up, walk, and run though, how fake? Fake rumors. It was ZLY who uses stand ins for those things like standing up, walking, running, kneeling, and sleeping on the ground. Besides, JJY never brag about never using doubles, she admits using them. ZLY, on the other hand, brags so much, denies ever using any, and even drag others down to hype up herself. There are evidence that ZLY uses doubles too excessively. No evidence on JJY doing such things, but when rumors spread... I really wonder whose team it is, always smart to disguise as others so their boss won't get in trouble. Begin in 2022, spending 2 years disguising and pretending is nothing special.
LOL I came from In blossom and decided to go to JJY's page and then here. It's hilarious how fans, anti-fans argue…
I know all the accounts hired by ZLY likes to say your sentence a lot "I won't read" but obviously read it all, "You work for ZLY?" that was in the middle, not the first and last sentences BTW. I know y'all trolls have lots of accounts and can take down anyone's account. You can go troll at the page you like, I'll help you provide the link even. https://kisskh.at/people/2321-zhao-zanilia There you go, the place you belong. Some people don't know their own place.
If you genuinely mean that men don't get enough dramas and are being treated unfairly and all, this is like, wrong…
Just spend 6 minutes and watch what I mean. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PL3pn47ylA&list=PL4P1OCiJ7Wk_XatRdZX84d-dNyp5zqyif&index=25 Liu Tao played a general in Princess Pearl III, she didn't need make up, she was dark skin, and kinda bald, but everyone loves it. Just look at how much action was put into that 6 minutes, how much emotion within that short time, how beautiful the shots were, how great the music were? And NIF? Put on a dark filter and call yourself serious... Snoooooooooooooooooozing, sorry fans.
In the clip I shared, who cares how many stand-ins were used? They used professionals, they trick the viewers to believe the actors are martial art masters. That's what I care. Like in The Myth, do I care if Kim Hee Sun did the beautiful peacock dance? Heck no, I love that scene, the dance is so beautiful, I have that clip saved on my playlist. These days, some actress says they won't use stand-in but they don't have any skill, they only do small things like sliding on the sand and fans already cry that they're too serious for overworking. Gosh, I don't know if their knees are also made out of tofu but if their skins are that sensitive to get scratches from sliding on sand, they should never play any role with action ever. Acting is never about just the actor alone. It requires a good director, a good cameraman, a good choreographer, a good lighting instructor, etc. It's so sad how people have no teamwork these days. They rely on barking with their own team, to create discussions online that can make more money. This why... these days, dramas so bad.
If you genuinely mean that men don't get enough dramas and are being treated unfairly and all, this is like, wrong…
I think he's got plenty diverse roles. I watched Yong An Dream half way and I totally see the issue, he got paired up with someone who can pass as his daughter visually. She's not underage, but she looks too young. They don't match. It makes him look bad. I can't really say her acting was all that bad, but with a script like that, others can do worse. His role was similar to Autumn Ballad, but in that one he was able to have sparkles in his eyes for the FL. In Yong An Dream, what can he do? Do the job well, make the romance works and look like a pedo? It was very unfortunate. I felt like he did not even want to look at the FL, but by doing that, he did the right thing though. On top of that, Yong An Dream also has a very stupid plot and script. Some fans will be angry at me for saying this, Dilireba also paired with Wu Lei who looks like a kid. Very much like Yong An Dream, as if the mismatch pairing is not enough, the plot and the script are also very bad. I can name more similar dramas like that, but I'll just get in more trouble for it.
The issue is a lot more than just gender match. IMO Females should stop playing general roles bc they don't match it, it is very true, for this generation. That's not how it was like back then, Zhang Ting actually did excellent as a female general in Huo Shuai. Liu Tao, female general in Princess Pearl III. Carman Lee, female general in Yang Heroine. Anita Yuen, in Hua Mulan. The fault is possibly, there's no professional directors and fighting mentors like the past anymore.
When Liu Tao played female general in NIF, it was bad because the fighting was all slow motion, even the story pacing is slow motion that I couldn't get past 2 episodes. I tried watching from the middle, I snoozed off immediately. Even in just a Xian Xia genre like Lotus Lantern, Liu Tao did great with the fight scenes back then. Now, everything is reliant on hype. Directors are lazy, if they know the actors already have fans, the actors don't need any special skill or work hard on the fighting scenes, just fake it and fans will cheer like crazy. It's not just the females, both genders don't match general roles these days. It's just that big males (not including small males) can pass off as generals better.
When these females don't play general roles, they play as noble ladies, OK... so now... noble ladies are the type who stay home only. How the heck do they have all those detective skills more than men, and began going outdoor to investigate like crazy? It's not that females shouldn't have smart roles, but the writers these days also have brain damage. They write boring things. The FL always have magic halos. In order to make these females look smart, the males are just there to be the strong guy who assists her on her smart journey when there are dangers. His role is completely empty. Her thinking processes are either non-existent, stupid, or boring. And then, as if all those bad stuff aren't enough, we have old women pairing up with childish looking boys. Or old looking men pair up with females looking underage. I don't even know where to begin. Everything deserves a ranting from top to bottom. For big female lead dramas, things are usually like that. I managed to finish a few out of boredom. I dropped all the big male lead ones, they're even more boring. Cdramas are quite hopeless these days. It's not only Jeremy who's stuck in this. Play in a big female lead drama, just chase the FL around like a fool, eh... it's actually more successful. Play in big male lead drama, pacing are usually slow as hell, if the production isn't the hyped Daylight agency, it won't be too successful. I think only men with huge fandoms can do well in big male lead dramas now. They had a few flops too, when the actors are no traffic kings btw. Tang Yan's husband was in Royal Nirvana, was that still Daylight agency? Looks nothing more or less than them, it doesn't get the same hype or treatment though. It has to do with the actor's traffic.
While I think Yong An Dream is bad, I'd seen worse! I watched more than 10 episodes of Yong An Dream, and won't mind a rewatch. Some of the explosive stuff with billions of views, and with completely perfect feedbacks, I can't even get past 1 episode. Like I say, everything is reliant on hype and big fandoms. The things people say are the best, are not really the best, they just have more fans. I don't think there is anyone these days that are more talented than the other, or doing much better than another. It only seems so, because a person might have more fans only.
Joy of life is epic actually, but its plot is complex and you'll need to watch almost half the season until you…
Trust me, there is nothing wrong with being pouty as long as the actress matches the role, or has the talent for it. Take for example,
Cecilia Cheung - The Lion Roar Jessica Hsuan - Step to the Past Yuki Hsu and Sun Li - The Beauty Mermaid Ady An and Esther - Chinese Paladin Jiang Qinqin - Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Zhang Ting - The Switch, Fairy Chalice, Huo Shuai Vicky Zhao - Huan Zhu Ge Ge Ruby Lin - Duke of the Mt Deer, Taiji Prodigy Chae Rim - Taming of the Shrew Jang Nara - The Mischievous Princess Ariel Lin - Seven of the Sky Amy Fan - Chess Warriors Fan Wong and Zhang Yuyan - Madame White Snake Rebecca Wang - The Four Detective Guards Yang Mi - Palace Jade Lockheart Gao Yuan Yuan - Detective Di Ren Jie Alyssa Chia - Yi Tian Tu Long Ji, Miracle Healers Ada Choi - Paradise Betty Sun - Just Another Pandora Box Bai Xue - The Proud Twins
That's a list of older shows and veteran actresses. Currently, Zhao Lusi's skills are close, when in decent productions.
These days, all females want to play warrior roles but they don't look like a warrior, if they don't look like one at least they should have skills to show off. They have neither looks nor talents to play warriors, what's more, also no dedication. It gets very annoying. I rather that they play something they match, and be good at it. If they match a bubbly role, then be good at acting hyper. If they match a mature role, then be good at speaking eloquently and elegantly.
I like that Jeremy looks like a man, not a boy. He is playing roles that matches him, but the productions are always cheap.
Some people's family must be the type of farmers that can't see any other farmers plant their crops. They have the better land, more fertilized, and much bigger, but they're lazy so their crops never grow. They even spend energy messing up other farmers land at night, instead of working hard on their own land. Seeing how other farmers always do well each year, their jealousy eyes turn red and green as soon as they see anyone planting crops. He Hui Zi is still new, she's still planting crops only, her crops haven't even grown, whether she is going to snatch good opportunities or not is not even verified. Why are people being so quick to be jealous? Are they too self aware about not honing any talent at all so they are this insecure? Work on yourself, don't worry about others.
LOL I came from In blossom and decided to go to JJY's page and then here. It's hilarious how fans, anti-fans argue…
Haha! Don't be those Karens, going Papajohns just to yell at workers for killing chickens. If you're not there to eat then gtfo, don't go in the first place. If you don't care how people view what they watched, you don't come to MDL! First, you come to MDL, THEN, you directly check out a peculiar actress's profile. What is your intention? You work for ZLY? Is that what you do for a living? She got caught red handed, FYI. Don't be a 2 face Karen, dip in! I'm dipping in, I'm being honest here. You started the conversation with Noelle, she did not come beg you to go hate on anyone with her. She's just exposing fake fans, why are you bothering if you're not hurt? Why can ZLY fans go around posing as fans of celebrities they don't even like, defame others and make wars, but if anyone says something, they can't? If you enjoy being 2 face I can play with you. That's alright with me. Don't care about cashier right? If a cashier robs you for a snack of $3.00 for $30,000.00, don't act like you won't fight it. There! Put you in your place.
The issues he faces, is the same issue the whole industry is going through too. I tried watching dramas with more male dominance, such as Joy of Life, My Heroic Husband, and the most recent Proud of Twins remake. Those shows are so dull that they even lost to female centric ones like Tiger and Rose, The Eternal Love, Scent of Time, Kunning Palace, etc. Doesn't matter if the production is high or low budget, as long as the show is female centric they happen to be more watchable. They are the selling point in this era now. It doesn't really matter if an actor will pair with good or bad actresses, as long as the plots are always "big female lead," there won't be any much differences. Put these men in "big male lead" dramas, chances are they might not sell as good either.
My instinct is telling me, ZLY will disguise as Yang Zi or ZHHZ's fans next, create a war between the 2. ZHHZ's…
I think the users that got blacklisted are the ones who exposed what ZLY did to WZW and HY. Might be good idea not to expose that tea too much.
You know what? Recollecting the time of Legend Chusen in 2016, I am still angry, ZLY's character was supposed to disappear after the first few episodes but she never did! Her fans also have the thick face to curse and swear at Yang Zi. ZLY did not even say anything to help YZ. ZLY suspiciously surpassed 20 billion viewers in 2015, when on average, views were only around 10 billion and that was a scarily high number enough. To say ZLY hired water armies is more valid, but no one even accuse ZLY of using water armies on YZ during that time.
Now that ZHHZ is playing a small role, she disappeared from the drama as quick as possible, as required. She did not even steal scenes or scripts. Once she saw bullying on JJY, she spoke up! Whether it will put a stop to the matter or not, the important thing is she tried. As a true friend, she really tried even at the expense of losing toxic fans. Yet, all of that, ZHHZ is accused of buying water armies on JJY. See the lack of justice here?
Not sure what generation you're from. I'm from the time the Mr. Vampire series were famous. Speaking of Stephen Chow, his movies were doing so well that the Mr. Vampire series got out of business. If your box office won't do well, producers won't fund you anymore. It was fair competition. Although the Mr. Vampire crew was much more talented, they relied on real martial arts, whereas Stephen Chow only relied on crazy acting and jokes, neither team would nastily attack each other like what we see today. Stephen Chow was extremely strict to keep up with the competition of his time, his crew hated him, but they knew they relied on him to eat so his attitudes was never revealed until he already stopped acting. These days, some people are not even half a tenth as good at acting as Stephen Chow, it's crazy how they keep slandering others shamelessly.
My instinct is telling me, ZLY will disguise as Yang Zi or ZHHZ's fans next, create a war between the 2. ZHHZ's…
Yeah that's him, ZLY got close with him during Princess Pearl Remake. ZLY made a scene during their variety show, crying in tears that the crew didn't invite her, only ZR stayed to company her. Funny how she was dating Gao Ziqi who played Xiao Jian, opposite her character Qing'er. If Gao Ziqi also ignored her then that only explains one thing. She cheated on him with Chen Xiao as rumored. Might be what caused the crew to dislike her. The director once took a photo with her, he covered his arms around her neck and she pulled his hands to her chest, they are also close and get along, why wouldn't he dislike her and not invite her? ZLY couldn't hide her hatred on Li Sheng during that variety show, but I believe LS is a better person, she dated the guy who played Er Kang and married him, to this day the marriage is still strong. Unlike the type of women screwing up men after men.
"Please don't engage in actress confrontation with me, don't make comparisons, don't deliberately step on one hand, I'm not happy to be praised like this, I don't want anyone to buy this kind of draft, I'm very good, and Xiaoju(Ju Jingyi) is also very good." I've been filming for 9 years this year, and if I had bought any so-called draft with my company that trampled on any actor, I wouldn't have been able to get any role in the future. I don't do boring things that lack morality, I'm not so idle. ”
MY MESSAGE: He Hui Zi has been very vocal when netz trample on Ju Jingyi. This action is not seen often, most of the time, actors will go on silent mode to save their own skin but let the other parties suffer in pain.
The malicious rumor saying He Hui Zi liked a post degrading Ju Jingyi is false rumor. The rumor is not even rampant in China, suspiciously odd why it is so chaotic oversea. Both ladies are good friends and playful together as seen on behind the scenes footages.
My instinct is telling me, ZLY will disguise as Yang Zi or ZHHZ's fans next, create a war between the 2. ZHHZ's…
Nothing wrong with ZBC. She just likes to make friends with people she finds useful. She wants to be a singer so she friends ZBC. She friends KW for international attention, he Canadian, speaks English, visited USA, famous for filming with Liu Yifei. And He Jiong because she's not good on variety show, he's host and always protect her. There is nothing negative about ZBC's having a daughter 🤣🤣!!
I think her marketing team over credits her, and twisted words too much. Saying people praise her, and she helps people, but the real stories always seem problematic.
Was Ning Jing really praising her or being ambiguous? Ning Jing has that "resting bitch" type of face, she's really smart and sharp. Her words are like a double edge sword, it can mean one way or the other.
Was she really helping others get roles for real? When she was unknown, directors sneaked her as support roles here and there, shooting with really famous people. When she got famous, in Princess Agents, at first she did marketed that she wanted to help others too. That's why she willingly sneaked people to shoot in the play. After the show got criticized for being plotless, characters are coming in and out unreasonably, she didn't take any responsibility. She blamed most of the people for "stealing scenes," and only admitted those that are close, like the one girlfriend of a stiff faced actor. The one guy who played 5th prince with her in New Princess Pearl Remake. I think the first junior she accepted to mentor was Jin Han, which they ended miserably. IDK the reason but both of them seems unprofessional alike. IDK if she's consider a mentor to Zhang Huiwen but IMO ZLY owes her an apology out of words, not a tiktok dance that hides her face. IYKYK. I also didn't like how after The Story of Minglan, if there is any actress acting as an unfavorited concubine's daughter, they immediately get compared with Minglan. Sometimes, the other shows are actually doing way better in storytelling, pacing, and cinematography which Minglan lacks all of that. Gosh, lots of the better shows get bullied so much. Minglan didn't really have any story to tell that's why the pacing was 100Xs slower than it should be, so they can make more episodes, and everything was overly dark that it's unprofessional. IMO that isn't "helping" others at all but sabotaging their effort and hard work. The audience has eyes, we know what a standardized thing look like and what a load of crap is like. My biggest pet peeve is ZLY plays with the audience's intelligence and buys too much black drafts. If she just want to overbrag, I'm fine with that, she's free to do anything to herself, just stop messing with others and the audience. There are people like Cecilia Cheung, has most embarrassing scandals ever, and you know what? As if I care? Cecilia was a true legend. Not anymore, but so what? Her old stuff are the STANDARDS I hold by like the law, we audience got no time to waste on slow motion stuff. At least Cecilia's scandals are also only within her own family dramas, it isn't as if she keeps sabotaging others to stay relevant. I'm ok with scandals, nobody needs to be all sweet and super innocent. Buying black drafts on people just bc they seem more talented is really immoral IMO.
My instinct is telling me, ZLY will disguise as Yang Zi or ZHHZ's fans next, create a war between the 2. ZHHZ's…
Up to you to decide. I don't want to say much and get blacklisted like what I noticed to other users. They provided all the evidence and still get blacklisted, so I don't know what's wrong with MDL. The so call fans insisting JJY-He Hui Zi war, are so reckless and suspicious. Ironically, they all happen to fan ZLY.
At this time, the evidence they used against He Hui Zi is only something ZLY fans pass around on Weibo. The official Chinese news have not dare to spread that rumor recklessly, if proven false, someone will get sued. As I see it, He Hui Zi spoken up against actions such as buying malicious drafts to defame others, although did not name ZLY specifically, it's an action ZLY has been notorious for. The biggest reason ZLY is always alienated and ignored at every social events, by everyone. Don't forget how rich celebs are, they have access to every resources to know who did what. Example like Kris Wu, it's not like some celebs didn't know what he did, they know but they fear his backups and connections so they don't say anything.
I didn't expect this fake rumor to be so noisy internationally, hard to say the Twitter user "All about Cent" has no connection with ZLY. Lots of MDL users are claiming JJY's fans, but they have no regard for the fact that such war will carry on to JJY and He Hui Zi's next drama. It's doing no good for JJY.
Is it HERSELF or CRAZY FANS? Things crazy fans can do - talk on Weibo or public websites Things actress can do - buy malicious drafts and waterarmies
People tend to blame the agencies buying drafts to save their idols, but don't forget an agency can have many artists. Not all artist will think the same way, if an agency operates like that, it's only good if they take in all toxic artists, if they come across a righteous artist they can lose everything to that person. I don't think any agency will be like that. What kind of person is ZLY anway? Close friends: Kris Wu, Zheng Shuang, He Jiong, Zhang Bichen Agencies: Too many to track, she left all of them on bad terms AND before contracts due, only good with current agency call Hesiong Big question, how does an artist not get sued by the agency when they leave before contract due? Shrugs... too rich to buy out the contract? IMO, it must be an extraordinary person but you decide it yourself.
"Some people" are just too good at turning black into white and turn white into black. It's unfortunate the antis have better connections and power. In the past, Qin Shi Huang was once able to make people call a deer a horse. Now, "some people" can make people act blind and say good acting is bad acting, but bad acting is good acting.
I just can't help but miss the past hopelessly. Actors back then put in all their trusts in the experts, no matter how the story change, the actors resiliently fulfill the director's visions.
These days, who are acting like the experts? Netz. Or, could be some actresses themselves but they don't have confidence so they use their fans to teach directors how to make decisions.
The reason why Chinese Paladin was able to do re-cast between Ady An and Esther smoothly was because actors back then know their place, they were resilient and respectful. At first, Ady was to play Ah Nu. It's possible that the role Yue Ru was originally set up to be hateful, but seeing chemistry between Ady and Hu Ge, it was a big game changer. During one of the early interviews when Ling'er was bathing in the pool, Hu Ge said in the interview that it's not only Liu Yifei that is beautiful, Ah Nu mei mei (must be Ady An) is not bad either. I'm guessing the writer must've changed things as they see fit from there. There was no noisy war like today, "you stole my screentime", or "I'm the main lead so the ML can only love me" and blah blah blah blah blah blah.
In Chinese Paladin, when the writers and directors made these decisions, they had a vision for sure, they saw the potential of Hu Ge having chemistry with both ladies. They knew what will work and won't work. The actors have to cooperate and make the director's vision play out, not fight with the director about their own visions. Imagine Liu Yifei being a crybaby and sent out her fans to attack the director and Ady An, that will be very unprofessional of her, and those kind of attitudes can only exist today, back then, the directors can fire you for just being tardy! There are actresses like that today, which I won't name, and they have such power to control the directors as well as producers to make things their own way. But when they market they act pitiful that they have no power at all... no power but so gutsy to drag down the production unprofessionally??? Very questionable.
We lost so many good directors who are passionate in this field because their talents don't even matter anymore. Bad directors with no vision, only rely on idols with huge traffic, and they smear the better productions. Huge traffic often means "fake traffic", an actress might just buy her own traffic to go step on others so she can claim the best reputation for herself. We, the audience, get left with very shitty dramas, but the annoying fans will cry about how great some shitty things are to no end.
The Chinese Paladin actors, or actors of Tangren back then, are able to have a very long career because of how professional everything was back then. Even support roles like Esther and Bryan Wong are unforgettable, everyone was a legendary actor.
Speaking of remakes, all of the previous "Stories of the Yang Clan" were all classics. When Tang Ren produced another remake of it, "Young Warriors" (historical), they used the same style and color grading from Chinese Paladin (xian xia). It became another classic, and perhaps, the last Yang Clan remake that will be watchable. People don't know how top notch the filming style of Chinese Paladin is. When I watched the behind the scenes footages, they got a serious team that knows their shits. While the camera was rolling, Liu Yifei was literally acting in front of 4-5 people, the lights controllers, they stood right next to her. It's nothing like today, so much space to yourself! If you look at any behind the scenes today, the actors have all the space to themselves, the director doesn't give a fudge about professional shadowing, the light can come from any direction as long as the source of light is bright enough and doesn't dim down the room. Other than the unbeatable cinematography, Liu Yifei actually revealed each day they received the script then quickly adjust to the script, it's not like today you know the whole plot and scripts and even slept on them many nights. I guess if some people understand their roles too well, they don't understand it at all, and if some people act too hard, it comes off fake. By receiving the script just a minute ago and you acting on it freshly, it might give off a more realistic acting style. Liu Yifei was beautiful, but there are people saying she is not beautiful enough for them, so it's unfair to say the success of Chinese Paladin was reliant on beauty. Hu Ge was also not that handsome by the way. Had it been today, there's a new actor with crooked teeth, all netz will talk about is how ugly he looks. The reason Hu Ge didn't get any criticism, this toxic culture did not exist until 2015 and beyond. Chinese Paladin came out in 2005. The truth is, whether someone is truly ugly or not, netz are not really netz, netz can be hired by competitors to say nasty things, even if someone is to be ugly for real, most of the real netz will not cyberbully, only a small group of bullies might exist. Now, the whole nation drops all their schoolwork or jobs to come online and bully celebrities appearances only, it is just not believable. Around 2012, Chinese dramas were not doing that well, and by 2015, directors got so lazy or too new in the field and untalented, that they don't give a fudge about quality. They just need to raise some idols that can create lots of traffic and buzz. The dramas we watch today will never in any way be comparable with Chinese Paladin, it's not because Liu Yifei's beauty is too hard to beat, or the actors are too good at acting, or the script was too good. It's because the entire team used to be extremely professional. It was a teamwork type of thing. Actors salary wasn't crazy back then, because they respect other workers. The lighting team matters, the martial arts staffs matter, the stand-ins matter, etc. Ever since 2015 and beyond, newer actresses came in and be charging insane salary! Cause she surpassed 20 billion views like nobody else. Dramas like NIF and Legend of Zhenhuan got low views at first, they saw what happened, and made their dramas surpass 20 billion views on their reruns the following year as well, and senior actors began to fight for even bigger salary than the noobs. It became a competition about views, fans, fanwars, traffic, etc. No longer about filming. To satisfy the actors with big salary, there is no such thing as light controller now. They don't even hire martial arts staffs either, fighting scenes now are ridiculous than childrens play. During Chinese Paladin, everyone would thought Hu Ge and Ady An know real martial arts in real life, it was that realistic!
She used to market "ZLY is queen, YM couldn't sit still" and now she's changing it to Yang Zi:
https://m.163.com/dy/article/IVE7QHLK05566B1M.html
"After seeing Zhao Liying dominates the whole network, Yang Zi couldn't sit still"
Just because Zhang Yimou is interested in working with Yang Zi.
ZLY lost face after her fans bullied a famous writer, now she's going to accuse her fans of being fake fans disguised by Yang Zi's fandom. With ZLY's history of bullying, it's not hard to predict her same old moves.

Is that Li Chang Ge blogger within your disguising team, do you know them? Pretends to use Dilireba as a profile pic and username, but doesn't even like Dilireba. Always aiming at newer actresses with talents, like those of Xingfei and Bai Bingke. That blogger obviously wants to keep newer talents away from popularity.
JJY did use a double to ride on a horse, because horse riding can be extremely dangerous. About JJY using stand ins to stand up, walk, and run though, how fake? Fake rumors.
It was ZLY who uses stand ins for those things like standing up, walking, running, kneeling, and sleeping on the ground. Besides, JJY never brag about never using doubles, she admits using them. ZLY, on the other hand, brags so much, denies ever using any, and even drag others down to hype up herself.
There are evidence that ZLY uses doubles too excessively.
No evidence on JJY doing such things, but when rumors spread... I really wonder whose team it is, always smart to disguise as others so their boss won't get in trouble. Begin in 2022, spending 2 years disguising and pretending is nothing special.
Some people don't know their own place.

Liu Tao played a general in Princess Pearl III, she didn't need make up, she was dark skin, and kinda bald, but everyone loves it.
Just look at how much action was put into that 6 minutes, how much emotion within that short time, how beautiful the shots were, how great the music were? And NIF? Put on a dark filter and call yourself serious... Snoooooooooooooooooozing, sorry fans.
In the clip I shared, who cares how many stand-ins were used? They used professionals, they trick the viewers to believe the actors are martial art masters. That's what I care. Like in The Myth, do I care if Kim Hee Sun did the beautiful peacock dance? Heck no, I love that scene, the dance is so beautiful, I have that clip saved on my playlist. These days, some actress says they won't use stand-in but they don't have any skill, they only do small things like sliding on the sand and fans already cry that they're too serious for overworking. Gosh, I don't know if their knees are also made out of tofu but if their skins are that sensitive to get scratches from sliding on sand, they should never play any role with action ever. Acting is never about just the actor alone. It requires a good director, a good cameraman, a good choreographer, a good lighting instructor, etc. It's so sad how people have no teamwork these days. They rely on barking with their own team, to create discussions online that can make more money. This why... these days, dramas so bad.
Some fans will be angry at me for saying this, Dilireba also paired with Wu Lei who looks like a kid. Very much like Yong An Dream, as if the mismatch pairing is not enough, the plot and the script are also very bad. I can name more similar dramas like that, but I'll just get in more trouble for it.
The issue is a lot more than just gender match. IMO Females should stop playing general roles bc they don't match it, it is very true, for this generation. That's not how it was like back then, Zhang Ting actually did excellent as a female general in Huo Shuai. Liu Tao, female general in Princess Pearl III. Carman Lee, female general in Yang Heroine. Anita Yuen, in Hua Mulan. The fault is possibly, there's no professional directors and fighting mentors like the past anymore.
When Liu Tao played female general in NIF, it was bad because the fighting was all slow motion, even the story pacing is slow motion that I couldn't get past 2 episodes. I tried watching from the middle, I snoozed off immediately. Even in just a Xian Xia genre like Lotus Lantern, Liu Tao did great with the fight scenes back then. Now, everything is reliant on hype. Directors are lazy, if they know the actors already have fans, the actors don't need any special skill or work hard on the fighting scenes, just fake it and fans will cheer like crazy. It's not just the females, both genders don't match general roles these days. It's just that big males (not including small males) can pass off as generals better.
When these females don't play general roles, they play as noble ladies, OK... so now... noble ladies are the type who stay home only. How the heck do they have all those detective skills more than men, and began going outdoor to investigate like crazy? It's not that females shouldn't have smart roles, but the writers these days also have brain damage. They write boring things. The FL always have magic halos. In order to make these females look smart, the males are just there to be the strong guy who assists her on her smart journey when there are dangers. His role is completely empty. Her thinking processes are either non-existent, stupid, or boring. And then, as if all those bad stuff aren't enough, we have old women pairing up with childish looking boys. Or old looking men pair up with females looking underage. I don't even know where to begin. Everything deserves a ranting from top to bottom.
For big female lead dramas, things are usually like that. I managed to finish a few out of boredom. I dropped all the big male lead ones, they're even more boring. Cdramas are quite hopeless these days. It's not only Jeremy who's stuck in this. Play in a big female lead drama, just chase the FL around like a fool, eh... it's actually more successful. Play in big male lead drama, pacing are usually slow as hell, if the production isn't the hyped Daylight agency, it won't be too successful. I think only men with huge fandoms can do well in big male lead dramas now. They had a few flops too, when the actors are no traffic kings btw. Tang Yan's husband was in Royal Nirvana, was that still Daylight agency? Looks nothing more or less than them, it doesn't get the same hype or treatment though. It has to do with the actor's traffic.
While I think Yong An Dream is bad, I'd seen worse! I watched more than 10 episodes of Yong An Dream, and won't mind a rewatch. Some of the explosive stuff with billions of views, and with completely perfect feedbacks, I can't even get past 1 episode. Like I say, everything is reliant on hype and big fandoms. The things people say are the best, are not really the best, they just have more fans. I don't think there is anyone these days that are more talented than the other, or doing much better than another. It only seems so, because a person might have more fans only.
Take for example,
Cecilia Cheung - The Lion Roar
Jessica Hsuan - Step to the Past
Yuki Hsu and Sun Li - The Beauty Mermaid
Ady An and Esther - Chinese Paladin
Jiang Qinqin - Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Zhang Ting - The Switch, Fairy Chalice, Huo Shuai
Vicky Zhao - Huan Zhu Ge Ge
Ruby Lin - Duke of the Mt Deer, Taiji Prodigy
Chae Rim - Taming of the Shrew
Jang Nara - The Mischievous Princess
Ariel Lin - Seven of the Sky
Amy Fan - Chess Warriors
Fan Wong and Zhang Yuyan - Madame White Snake
Rebecca Wang - The Four Detective Guards
Yang Mi - Palace Jade Lockheart
Gao Yuan Yuan - Detective Di Ren Jie
Alyssa Chia - Yi Tian Tu Long Ji, Miracle Healers
Ada Choi - Paradise
Betty Sun - Just Another Pandora Box
Bai Xue - The Proud Twins
That's a list of older shows and veteran actresses. Currently, Zhao Lusi's skills are close, when in decent productions.
These days, all females want to play warrior roles but they don't look like a warrior, if they don't look like one at least they should have skills to show off. They have neither looks nor talents to play warriors, what's more, also no dedication. It gets very annoying. I rather that they play something they match, and be good at it. If they match a bubbly role, then be good at acting hyper. If they match a mature role, then be good at speaking eloquently and elegantly.
I like that Jeremy looks like a man, not a boy. He is playing roles that matches him, but the productions are always cheap.
It doesn't really matter if an actor will pair with good or bad actresses, as long as the plots are always "big female lead," there won't be any much differences. Put these men in "big male lead" dramas, chances are they might not sell as good either.
You know what? Recollecting the time of Legend Chusen in 2016, I am still angry, ZLY's character was supposed to disappear after the first few episodes but she never did! Her fans also have the thick face to curse and swear at Yang Zi. ZLY did not even say anything to help YZ. ZLY suspiciously surpassed 20 billion viewers in 2015, when on average, views were only around 10 billion and that was a scarily high number enough. To say ZLY hired water armies is more valid, but no one even accuse ZLY of using water armies on YZ during that time.
Now that ZHHZ is playing a small role, she disappeared from the drama as quick as possible, as required. She did not even steal scenes or scripts. Once she saw bullying on JJY, she spoke up! Whether it will put a stop to the matter or not, the important thing is she tried. As a true friend, she really tried even at the expense of losing toxic fans. Yet, all of that, ZHHZ is accused of buying water armies on JJY. See the lack of justice here?
Not sure what generation you're from. I'm from the time the Mr. Vampire series were famous. Speaking of Stephen Chow, his movies were doing so well that the Mr. Vampire series got out of business. If your box office won't do well, producers won't fund you anymore. It was fair competition. Although the Mr. Vampire crew was much more talented, they relied on real martial arts, whereas Stephen Chow only relied on crazy acting and jokes, neither team would nastily attack each other like what we see today. Stephen Chow was extremely strict to keep up with the competition of his time, his crew hated him, but they knew they relied on him to eat so his attitudes was never revealed until he already stopped acting. These days, some people are not even half a tenth as good at acting as Stephen Chow, it's crazy how they keep slandering others shamelessly.
"Please don't engage in actress confrontation with me, don't make comparisons, don't deliberately step on one hand, I'm not happy to be praised like this, I don't want anyone to buy this kind of draft, I'm very good, and Xiaoju(Ju Jingyi) is also very good." I've been filming for 9 years this year, and if I had bought any so-called draft with my company that trampled on any actor, I wouldn't have been able to get any role in the future. I don't do boring things that lack morality, I'm not so idle. ”
MY MESSAGE:
He Hui Zi has been very vocal when netz trample on Ju Jingyi. This action is not seen often, most of the time, actors will go on silent mode to save their own skin but let the other parties suffer in pain.
The malicious rumor saying He Hui Zi liked a post degrading Ju Jingyi is false rumor. The rumor is not even rampant in China, suspiciously odd why it is so chaotic oversea. Both ladies are good friends and playful together as seen on behind the scenes footages.
There is nothing negative about ZBC's having a daughter 🤣🤣!!
I think her marketing team over credits her, and twisted words too much. Saying people praise her, and she helps people, but the real stories always seem problematic.
Was Ning Jing really praising her or being ambiguous? Ning Jing has that "resting bitch" type of face, she's really smart and sharp. Her words are like a double edge sword, it can mean one way or the other.
Was she really helping others get roles for real? When she was unknown, directors sneaked her as support roles here and there, shooting with really famous people. When she got famous, in Princess Agents, at first she did marketed that she wanted to help others too. That's why she willingly sneaked people to shoot in the play. After the show got criticized for being plotless, characters are coming in and out unreasonably, she didn't take any responsibility. She blamed most of the people for "stealing scenes," and only admitted those that are close, like the one girlfriend of a stiff faced actor. The one guy who played 5th prince with her in New Princess Pearl Remake. I think the first junior she accepted to mentor was Jin Han, which they ended miserably. IDK the reason but both of them seems unprofessional alike. IDK if she's consider a mentor to Zhang Huiwen but IMO ZLY owes her an apology out of words, not a tiktok dance that hides her face. IYKYK. I also didn't like how after The Story of Minglan, if there is any actress acting as an unfavorited concubine's daughter, they immediately get compared with Minglan. Sometimes, the other shows are actually doing way better in storytelling, pacing, and cinematography which Minglan lacks all of that. Gosh, lots of the better shows get bullied so much. Minglan didn't really have any story to tell that's why the pacing was 100Xs slower than it should be, so they can make more episodes, and everything was overly dark that it's unprofessional. IMO that isn't "helping" others at all but sabotaging their effort and hard work. The audience has eyes, we know what a standardized thing look like and what a load of crap is like. My biggest pet peeve is ZLY plays with the audience's intelligence and buys too much black drafts. If she just want to overbrag, I'm fine with that, she's free to do anything to herself, just stop messing with others and the audience. There are people like Cecilia Cheung, has most embarrassing scandals ever, and you know what? As if I care? Cecilia was a true legend. Not anymore, but so what? Her old stuff are the STANDARDS I hold by like the law, we audience got no time to waste on slow motion stuff. At least Cecilia's scandals are also only within her own family dramas, it isn't as if she keeps sabotaging others to stay relevant. I'm ok with scandals, nobody needs to be all sweet and super innocent. Buying black drafts on people just bc they seem more talented is really immoral IMO.
The so call fans insisting JJY-He Hui Zi war, are so reckless and suspicious. Ironically, they all happen to fan ZLY.
At this time, the evidence they used against He Hui Zi is only something ZLY fans pass around on Weibo. The official Chinese news have not dare to spread that rumor recklessly, if proven false, someone will get sued.
As I see it, He Hui Zi spoken up against actions such as buying malicious drafts to defame others, although did not name ZLY specifically, it's an action ZLY has been notorious for. The biggest reason ZLY is always alienated and ignored at every social events, by everyone.
Don't forget how rich celebs are, they have access to every resources to know who did what. Example like Kris Wu, it's not like some celebs didn't know what he did, they know but they fear his backups and connections so they don't say anything.
I didn't expect this fake rumor to be so noisy internationally, hard to say the Twitter user "All about Cent" has no connection with ZLY.
Lots of MDL users are claiming JJY's fans, but they have no regard for the fact that such war will carry on to JJY and He Hui Zi's next drama. It's doing no good for JJY.
Is it HERSELF or CRAZY FANS?
Things crazy fans can do - talk on Weibo or public websites
Things actress can do - buy malicious drafts and waterarmies
People tend to blame the agencies buying drafts to save their idols, but don't forget an agency can have many artists. Not all artist will think the same way, if an agency operates like that, it's only good if they take in all toxic artists, if they come across a righteous artist they can lose everything to that person. I don't think any agency will be like that.
What kind of person is ZLY anway?
Close friends: Kris Wu, Zheng Shuang, He Jiong, Zhang Bichen
Agencies: Too many to track, she left all of them on bad terms AND before contracts due, only good with current agency call Hesiong
Big question, how does an artist not get sued by the agency when they leave before contract due? Shrugs... too rich to buy out the contract? IMO, it must be an extraordinary person but you decide it yourself.
