I just went to the MDL page of Legend of Anle to check. I think there is viewer by the name of Forgottensoul who kept attacking Reba. Don't worry about that person. She is just one individual. When the drama is about to start and she still goes to attack Reba, she will be hounded by Reba fans.

Other than that person, I do not see any other Reba haters in that forum.

Sure. And YY better hold on to her legs and not her pants. Because those pants look ready to fall off anytime, as she is so skinny.

Fan wars are quite common. Especially in China. and especially so if the ML and FL are about the same age. Like the case of Reba and YY. Lots of YY fans in China are women and are highly 'protective' of him. So, that is why they were already fighting with Reba fans even before YAMG was aired. Some of this fighting could well have been instigated by haters of both YY and Reba. The more YY and Reba fans fight each other, the worse the drama will perform and these haters will be very happy, as it will mean that their own favorite drama will do well.

Right now, it is too early to worry about The Legend of Anle. That drama will only be aired sometime in August of next year. We can always go there in July of next year, to push back against those Reba haters.

Will depend on the drama right after LOA, whether it requires her to look skiny or slightly heavier. She did look heavier in TLB, cause the role requires her look young. With a fuller looking face, she did look younger, almost as young as when she was acting in Anarhan.

They will use CGI. If the CGI is good, it will still be very realistic.

Yes, next Monday night is the final 2 episodes for ordinary members. I think by end of next week, the highest YAMG can go will be between 3.5 to 3.6B. And then it will need a few more months to hit 4B. We should expect viewership to drop heavily after next week. That is the usual case for most dramas.

It is ok. I do understand your English. Don't worry about it. I think as far as Reba is concerned, she will not be too concerned about who the ML is, as long as the ML can act well. So, if it is true that she has accepted it, the director has many choices. As long as the actor is good, she will have no problem having good chemistry with him.

She is free from early part of next year. So, whatever new project she wishes to be in, they can start filming by around mid Jan or early Feb. I think she should be done filming The Legend of Anle by no later than Dec 2021.

I think by Oct, we will know which project of hers has been confirmed for next year.

She is so light, she better not hold so many of those ballons. Else she might just get airborne

I think if we hang around long enough, we will get to see more BTS that are yet to be released. I will move on by end of next week, as there are other nice dramas to watch. I will just keep looking at the view counts, to be happy that YAMG keeps going up and up and, next year, for them to win many drama and acting awards.

Yes, there is no way they will do an actual rocket launch just for this drama. They took a video clip from a previous rocket launch at Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan, and just blended it into the drama.

Although I do not know the exact method that they use, I can tell that for each drama, those who rate a drama latest will be weighted more heavily. For instance, say a drama is aired from January to end Feb. Those who do their ratings around mid to late Feb will be given more 'weights' compared to those who rated in mid January. The assumption is that those who rate it later will be those who have watched the entire drama, hence their views will be considered as more important.

This will give rise to what we called a weighted average. It is not difficult to compute weighted average. Anyone with simple understanding statistics can do it. And MDL can write a simple programme to compute this weighted average, each time a rater rates a drama.

I read this article as well. I think it applies to fandoms in China. It just means that toxic fans will need to watch out, or their Weibo accounts will be shut down. I do not know much about Reba's fans in China, whether they are the kind that will retaliate against her haters. If they do, they must be careful or their accounts will also be shut down.

If you are referring to the MDL page of Legend of Anle, you do not need to worry about Reba haters there. Soon, there will be lots of Reba fans going to that page, and they will not take those comments lightly. We do not need any help from the people at MDL. We will be able to shut down all the haters on our own.

The Blue Whisper should be shown early next year. And The Legend of Anle somewhere around August of next year. That would mean two Reba dramas will be aired next year. They usually do not like to air three dramas from the same actress/actor in a calender year.

So, even if Reba and Yang Yang should collaborate on another project, we will only get to watch that drama in 2023, which will be two years from now. May not be exactly 24 months though. If they do film a modern drama, we might get to see in early 2023. But, if it is historical drama, maybe around later part of 2023.

Reba's new projects for 2022 have not been announced yet, so we do not know what she is going to do. There are those who want her to team up with Wu Lei again, and others who want her to team up with Yang Yang. I think she is too busy filming now to think about 2022. Perhaps in another 2 months, the picture will be clearer.

What will be interesting is this. If Reba and Yang Yang get to work together in another project, many people who met here because of YAMG will get to reunite once more. Even if that does materialise, it will be at least 2 years from now.

It has been a great summer watching YAMG, spending time with all the wonderful folks here. By the end of next week, I will be moving on. TOOL will be starting soon, and there are also other dramas to watch.

Reba fans will meet again, next year in The Blue Whisper and Legend of Anle.

Yang Yang fans will probably reunite in the MDL page of Who Rules the World.

He was one of the great admirers of Changge's intelligence and very trusting of her.

At the moment, I think a great majority of viewers in China who do want to watch this drama have already seen it via fast track and VIP. Very few are in the non-fast track ordinary member category (since the view counts went up really slowly last night). I am not sure even those un-used BTS will help very much. But, for people who have already the entire series, the BTS will encourage rewatch, and it seems that rewatch will still count toward the view counts in China. So, it is possible that in the coming days, they will release those.

Yes! This was exactly what I was having in mind. I saw the bts, but did not know that they had already released the shot on top of the jeep in Twitter.

That means Tencent may have nothing left that can be used to promote the final 2 episodes next week

Maybe they feel that they have already done enough?

If I remember correctly, both of them were very busy. And there was also this big event, the CCP celebrating 100th anniversary in early July, and both of them were involved, hence they could not do much prior to YAMG's airing. Reba was involved in filming her next drama at Hengdian and she actually had fly out of Hengdian for that fan conference and shoot that Happy Camp episode.

I think they did shoot some shots at that desert scene that were never used so far. There was one of the two of them sitting on top of a jeep. Not sure if Tencent will release that as a poster, to help push the final 2 episodes.
