Unfortunately for me because I definitely wouldn't mind if those were all XZ core fans, it is impossible to achieve the numbers both SY and TLP achieved without huge influx of general audiences. He may be dingliu but his achievements are still his achievements and they cannot be such without huge passer by numbers.

As for the rest, XZ takes the best projects he can, according to his desires of being a real actor, what is available and what Chinese censorship laws allow. As a dingliu he for example can't take a villain role because that would be seen as promotion of negative values. But he is achieving what he wants with the roles he is taking, considering the results so I don't see much changing. Maybe he simply isn't for you, it happens.

It's not the experts. It's the data.

Most people thought this summer WDX exploded. Its pretty much a unanimous agreement in China. His Douyin numbers as MYC were above 2 billion which is a certified explosion. And congratulations to him.

Shi Ying at the time had close to 3 billion.

It's just that this is the second character explosion for XZ, first being WWX, so it generated less fuss. It is still an explosion. The same goes for the drama, that exploded with real data, not water, which is why many platforms now are emphasising that.

No, no, definitely not 🥶

Believe me, I would not be excited over that. I mean look at what happened and is happening. Cursed platform.

Only Tony Leung Ka Fai has shown up on one of the official platforms as another cast member and actually this is correct, we know he is currently filming.

No. It is set for early February right now, the spring festival slot.

It is, very big project but it is in incredibly early stages so nothing at all is even remotely sure here. We are just hearing faintest rumors about it. Honestly there is no point in thinking too much about it right now. First Tibetan Sea 🤞

Rumoured. But it has been on hot search, twice and fat shrimp hasn't denied. As I said below, this is the same pattern as before TLP and prior to SBMS. Is it a certainty? No but it is as likely as melons get.

Nope. I would never forgive myself 😭 but it's a very good cake.

It has a very high level of probability. If you spend enough time reading melons you get a good idea who is relatively reliable and how to read general signs. Imo it is true.

There is actually an incredible amount of nastiness happening on Chinese sns now. It's better that it is locked because both XZ and TLP are under fire. Especially XZ.

We definitely should because there is a certain number of views that will get recorded anyway before we hit the limit. XZ himself isn't behind a limit either so that is good. We can't do much more than operate within the limits that exist.

If you visit Douban, give it a pass today. It's one of those nasty days.

Douban score? It's locked. Don't worry about it, that's not unusual.

Thank you, I will try. I just really want to know what is even going on 😂

It hasn't been announced officially yet. We will have to wait for Condor Heroes to be done and that is going to be around November.

Here, this will link you to the official account (first hit) and everything else.

😂😂😂

I really want to know if they locked it or if it's a bug.

There is nothing you can do for TLP on Tencent. I wish there was but there isn't. The drama they want to push is being broadcast now and they want TLP to disappear.

Of course use up your sub but it is much better to go to Douyin now and watch TLP and SY. That is being counted properly and Tencent can't do anything to stop it. I am happily watching SY there and bonus is that data counts.

Everyone unsubscribed and uninstalled the second they were done 😂

That felt so liberating.

Not possible. Water is pouring in major waves. Just let it go, heat wasn't stuck for TLP only to miraculously work just fine now by accident. That ought to tell you what Tencent's intentions are.

XZ is done with Tencent now so the nightmare is over. I am sure he will never do an independent Tencent production again. They can find others to carry sedan chairs for their princesses.

Yes, that's it. I get 4 pages of search and none of it is him. When he shows up, he is first.

And now you made me look up TLP and nope, it's not showing either 😭😂
