geechoo

this one did a poor job of explaining the plot.

I don't know if it's confirmed yet. so far we only have news of scriptwriter. but it's from the same production team behind Zhu Yu

that's so weird lol does he mean variety show or something? because there is zero melons on his next filming project

yeah a lot of people mentioned that it looks like a short drama but tbh I think the production company was going for that kind of feel. it was mentioned at the IQIYI conference

rewatching it, I love love loveee the 2nd part when there's that violin playing omg the fast cuts and high tension!!

yess that wide shot of the building made me go wait wut lol that is modern shanghai...

also this director really likes filming close ups. I hope there's more wide shots in the actual drama.

wait you guys don't get it lol 2026 Q1 is a really good release date. if it gets released near Chinese New Years, that would be the best because students are off from school

what was released wasn't a trailer. it's a "director cut" kind of snippet of scenes. I hope they change the filter a bit to give it more of a vintage vibe

I think it's the filter that makes it look modern. it's too "HD".

it has so many chapters though >__<

yeah I love this one *___* it's so seductive

I think they do multiple edits. Once editing is done, they have the basic shell of the drama. Now they just need to add music, dubbing, etc which should be quick. imo we will probably hear news about licensing in October.

I feel like I need to read this novel because the casting for this is a hot topic on chinese web

tbh I don't think there's a lot of flashbacks compared to other dramas but I agree about the fillers. there were too many pointless dating scenes once they got together.

XRH's crying definitely could use some work lol the first time she cried (in eps 2?) I actually laughed out loud. it doesn't help that the director likes to film close up shots.

actually no one knows what they're filming lol feel like the reuters are all very out of context

actually there's a lot that hasn't leaked. I think it's just when we do get reuters, we get them filmed from every angle lol

think we're gonna get a teaser of some type at the IQIYI conference on the 25th. the weibo hinted that we'll see something next week..

no. just normal S

the filming only took ~90 days and they basically filmed at hengdian without travelling to other cities. budget shouldn't be too big.

the director posted that the first edit is done. based on the chat log from his wife (she posted on XHS lol) they've been editing from May to September.. that is a long time! I'm glad the director was involved the whole time. Sometimes cdramas have directors that don't participate in the post production because they're already filming their next project (Zhu Ruibin is a good example..). Love that this director is involved.

feel like we'll hear news about getting broadcasting licensing soon.

edit. I've blocked that tom person lol why does he keep replying with nonsense..

snow, blue lighting during the night time, warm lighting during daytime, slow motion etc lol those are his signature
