Crazy how even after reading your timeline I'm still very confused >< Thank you for the efforts !
Lol, I had to try to at least make some sense of it. I felt episode 25 was like BAM and u fast forwarded like 20 years lol. So, thought maybe this would help me and others lol. Sorry, that it just made u more confused lol
Ummm hard to say. In the beginning I would say no, it felt more like they were frenemies if anything. But at episode 25 it does seem like they are becoming friendlier with each other so maybe friends now? lol.
I recently finished TU and fell in love with wangxian. So now I’m watching Luoyang and Ace Troop for Wang Yibo…
A bit late, but there was a lot of drama that surrounded Ace Troops when it was first officially announced. Mainly because his contract stated he was main lead but it did change due to circumstances so a lot of scenes did get cut of his. I think eventually they had to give him his billing back because a new law states that if a contract is written to give someone 1st billing they are not allowed to change it later.
So, u probably will see iQiyi post comments with the main leads but in parenthessis it would say "alphabetical order". It's to prevent Xiao Zhan from suing them according to the new law. But, I think for his future projects he will no longer have this issue. But, sadly the scenes were probably already cut so thats why u see less of him. I hope this helped even though its late lol.
Your welcome 🥰🥰🥰. Don't take anything we say too harshly - we are just thinking about the character within the parameters of the show and nothing more. I would also be unhappy if someone spoke ill of Xiao Zhan, the person. But if they just don't like the character (if they don't like GYY) I would understand. After all not everyone might love what he plays or prefer another character over him. Perfectly normal. I mean I think I have disliked plenty of characters that others have loved or liked characters that people have hated lol. It's just how these things work when different people watch the same things - we all have different interpretations and different experiences that mold our opinions of something.
I agree with ur comment. I think GYY breaks up with JNZ because he doesn't want to burden her while knowing that…
Agreed! I hated the fact that we had to read about all the things he encountered while training through a letter that was cut out. I felt that was so important to know because it is directly connected to his character and how he is feeling and what he is going through.
Like without the letter I just thought he got tired from training too much but the letter made so much more sense.
I think I am going to try my hands on this time line since episode 25 was like sitting inside the car from Back to the Future lol.
1983: Recruits joined the army and started their training
1984: The war started - GYY became sergeant in less than a year Zhang Fei died
1985: Approximately 12 - 13 months passed after the war started War ended A Xiu has a child with Zhang Fei (he is 4 months old) The recruits have joined the academy
1986: GYY breaks up with JNZ
1989: The recruits graduate from the academy after 3 years of studying
1992 or 1993: GYY has been in the Night Tiger Company GYY is the current Company Comamander of the Night Tiger Company (the best company) GL has been the Deputy Company Comander for 4 years now GL becomes the Company Comaneder for the 720 division of the 9th company JNZ is the Chief of Major Military Office
It’s almost funny, as soon as the girl is out of the way, GYY and GL seem to get along 😂 Maybe we will finally…
RIGHT lol? It's just like everyone guessed it that if it wasn't for the romance, things might have been good between them. And now that it has happened, it was the actual truth lol. They are talking like normal adults without GL constantly attacking him for some reason that is associated with JNZ. It just seems like JNZ was the issue all along between them lol.
I agree with ur comment. I think GYY breaks up with JNZ because he doesn't want to burden her while knowing that…
Oh, I agree. I do feel GYY's character definitely makes u analyze in all different ways. Some people have some thoughts while others have another. He is a very complicated character that I just find myself hoping that he gets more. That he stops sacrificing himself and stops thinking that all the burden lays on his shoulder.
But the scene where the father says that this is the responsibility of a soldier when their comrades fall - they have to take care of those they left behind. It made me realize that a lot of soldiers who come back from war probably feel the same way GYY does. They think they need to take care of their comrades wives & children. And it isn't a unique story but something that does happen.
Yes, have to agree here. Though maybe he could not make a decision and that's why he didn't? Idk. But that situation…
Yea, I think they are just trying ot get their personal lives in order so we can move onto the military aspect. But I also not a huge fan of the marraige out of responsibiity. I know some people are and thats fine but I can't fnd myself to do the same.
You know the way some people play at helpfulness, where they go all "we're in this together. you know you can…
From what I read, a lot of people apparently hate GL even in China. So, I don't think its much of a cultural difference I just really think he wasn't written well. I mean I don't think anyone likes someone who gets things through connections regardless of who they are. It makes people feel all their effort is for nothing since someone else can obtain the same thing with just a phone call.
Honestly, at times, I feel if it wasn't for his Male Lead more people would be open to dislike him and actually think he is the villain. Even in the recent episode when he told GYY just to commit suic&de. I really wanted to punch him - like dude can u please understand his situation. And that is wrong also in ALL levels. I am glad he is helping him later but that 1 scene really made me hate him. That was so messed of him. And once GYY told him his situation eh understood - but its like why didn't u hear him out the other times he has been telling u that he cna't do this anymore. That he is filled with grief and he can't find a way to live like this anymore. But nope dude is telling a person who is on the edge just to k*ll himself like wow really?
Episode 24: Really happy that Gao Liang is finally helping Gu Yiye. I think now that the love triangle is gone they can actually try to help one another and be friends. I think it was great of GL to actually help GYY with his situation with A Xiu because clearly GYY is no romantic (can't read between the lines lol). I hope it stays this way because I think I prefer it when they can just get along rather than GL constantly attacking GYY because of JNZ.
I agree with ur comment. I think GYY breaks up with JNZ because he doesn't want to burden her while knowing that…
Lol, I totally get it. Like I said it just this feeling I can't get past that I don't want them to end up together. I think its a ME thing lol. A Xiu is a great character and definitely someone that is likeable and would probably be a great emotional foothold for GYY. But I feel that could also be done as friends and he can still help her u know. I just would have preferred him to have his own love story and not one connected by his squad leader who he clearly feels an immense amount of guilt towards.
Oh, trust me. I don't think GYY should end up with JNZ either lol. I think they aren't compatible with each other especially when GYY was down and just filled with grief - JNZ wasn't really able to help. And her words, if anything, made things worse for him. I think he wanted someone to be understanding of his situation rather than telling him to move on. I mean, JNZ was patient & waited for him. So, I don't want to blame her too much its just the compatibility was not right between them. I guess for me I feel someone like Hu Young would have been a good option. She seemed to understand hsi situation and was mature. Like I said, I just think I just wanted him to have his own love story void of any grief or guilt. Just something of his own. But I also know that I might be unreasonable lol.
I don't understand why people think that if someone hates a fictional character that it means we hate the actor. That just isn't true. No one has mentioned the actor even once just mentioned the fictional character. This idea that we have to love every main lead or every character is just strange to me. Like when u watch movies or tv shows there will always be a list of characters u like, dislike & are neutral towards. Nothing wrong with that.
When people watched Game of Thrones - I think like 99% of people probably hated Cersei Lannister but the actress who portrayed her did a REMARKABLE job playing her. Probably one of the best acting jobs from the entire show - but I still hated Cersei Lannister but LOVE Lena Headey (the actress). So, u can differentiate between the actor and the role they play - theres nothing wrong with that and thats what all viewers do.
Same with Leonardo DiCaprio. I LOVE Leo. But I am not going to say that I loved the character he played in Wolf on Wall Street. Because that character was just. . . .not a nice person. But Leo, like always, did an amazing job portraying the character. But, Jordan Belfort, the character he played, was just ughhhhh - like I won't love him just because he is the main character or played by my favorite actor when he clearly has so many flaws in his personality. So, please, don't think that because we dislike Gao Liang that means we are hating on the actor. It just means we dislike a fictional character that he is portraying - if we watched another one of his tv dramas we probably would like the character he played. Has nothing to do with the actor and all to do with how Gao Liang is written.
And same with Xiao Zhan. If the roles were reversed and he played Gao Liang, I would still dislike Gao Liang because he just isn't written well. And I think all Xiao Zhan fans would agree. If one day he decides to play a villain or something I don't think everyone is going to love the character - they might love the way he acted him out but the fictional character itself will probably be disliked. So, please don't think that we are hating him or disrespecting your idol. But u have to understand we are viewers and we are allowed to have some say in how we feel towards a fictional character and his actions especially if it doesn't appeal to our standards. There is a differentiaton between actor & the characters they portray. So, don't take it to heart if people don't like GL it has nothing to do with ur idol. and just the writing for the drama.
As for Gu Yiye and A Xiu’s relationship I think it’s too early to say that he is gonna marry her out of guilt.…
I agree with ur comment. I think GYY breaks up with JNZ because he doesn't want to burden her while knowing that she already moved on. And he knows him having to take care of another woman would hurt her even though she might not say it.
But, I am still not a fan of GYY marrying A Xiu to be honest (when they do). I know people want them together and I can honestly see why. BUT, I still wished it was someone else, u know? Like someone he slowly falls in love with; without guilt being the starting point of it all. I understand that it happened in his life and it can't be changed but idk knowing that he has to sacrifice so much because of it just hurts. And I feel if he marries A Xiu its just going to be a constant reminder to me, the audience, that he could never get true love because of all the guilt he had.
Idk maybe I am just being a romantic or something lol.
Completely agree. I think that is what GYY needed the most. Just someone to tell him that what he is feeling is…
Yea, I mean it kind of was similiar to the doctors but they only got used to it because of how many cases they had. Her, on the other hand, it was her first time and she kind of just was cool about it. Like the guy came in all distraught and she was still eating like it was nothing. Definitely strange to me - but maybe there are some people like that who just don't care about those things. And are strong mentally that they can just overlook it and get past it.
So, u probably will see iQiyi post comments with the main leads but in parenthessis it would say "alphabetical order". It's to prevent Xiao Zhan from suing them according to the new law. But, I think for his future projects he will no longer have this issue. But, sadly the scenes were probably already cut so thats why u see less of him. I hope this helped even though its late lol.
I hope we can see his new drama The Longest Promise and . . . . . Oath of Love
I hope we are enjoying Ace Troops for those who are watching it
Anyways, I hope you are enjoying the drama 😊😊
