What do you think of GJ? I am only 20 minutes into Word of Honor (too many things to watch!). I still wish it was XZ however but I know he's got his play thing going all year. Also there's a lot of time until filming so a lot can change.

Ahh, Gong Jun is listed as male lead on Douban!

Almost 1.5B views on Tencent Video! On the road to 2B!

Omg I ship ChangeGe and Situ Lang Lang in another lifetime :). Maybe just Dilraba and him in another drama :)

It's almost 1.4B now on Tencent Video only.

I actually dropped Legend of Fei...couldn't follow the story, but I was planning on giving it another go later. Also I think more people watch the fantasy dramas over the martial art ones, so when it comes to comparing dramas, you need to consider the genre as well. To be honest, it's been a while since I've watched a purely martial arts (no fantasy) drama.

I sure hope this drama hits 2B views soon! That would certify it as a hit right?

Actually I would love them to pair! But just don’t want to get my hopes up.

I just saw another rumor that they are talking to Kenny Lin now?

I hope they can work together, I dream of it! I heard that China put down some rules recently regarding the amount actors can make and they can't take up more than a certain percentage of the production budget. So when you have big stars who command big $, they might hit that cap. These new rules were effective recently, like a little over a year I think.

I read a rumor that even XZ reduced his fee a bit to compete. Having two mega stars take up 70% of the budget would be crappy for production.

Why is this Dilraba drama not getting as many views as Eternal Love of Dream (8.3B views now)? I remember it ramped up viewers really quickly. Is it because most people like fantasy dramas more? Chinese people like more romance? Or is it because they only release this on WeTV in China and not in other languages?

I don't see Timmy's name come up when I search on Weibo, at least not on the first page results. Listed often are XZ or Gong Jun and Deng Lun who is apparently the producer's fav as male leads.

I found it on Weibo and also found it on Douban.

Just search dramacool on Google then site suffix seems to change.

Any idea how much this production is? I'm curious because everyone says it has a crazy budget!

Apparently "Ball Lightening" is also another play she has intent to star in. I will support whatever decision she makes. Since this is only 40 episodes, it can be broadcasted on TV right?

Right? When Douluo Continent came out, the Eng subs were available on Tencent Video within 15 minutes!

When you say Rank #1, do you mean his college entrance exam?

Yeah, I guess it's the 4 in the between that's killing me.
