it's a toxic industry for sure but i've seen many actors who broke free and have their own studio. they might not be signed with big agencies but they have control of their career and are still successful.

that doesn't make any sense. he has built a good amount of fame/fanbase and has high commercial value. he's my fav chinese actor but i won't be feeling bad for him anymore if he really renewed it bc he's not hopeless and has options. i will still support his dramas of course

i saw someone on x say there are rumors that he's renewed his contract with ⭐️? pls tell me it's not true and there hasn't been any reliable melons about it 😭

ok i still dgaf

there's nothing disrespectful lol since there is no one officially announced as FL. we can comment about our dream pairings

yes they said they'd do all those things if linghe shows up to the booting ceremony

i would be so sat for this if wang churan was the FL. just imagine how good she would look in empress outfits and their chemistry together is 🔥

it's actually yuxiao's fans who threatened to shoot laser guns and throw acid on linghe not his.

does anyone know if there has actually been any preparation in hengdian for this drama? like production crew arriving etc.

usually there is movement when production is gonna start soon.

No he just finished filming sea of no return in June

are there any reliable repeated melons for his next drama or not yet? He definitely deserves a break too if he wants that.

ML changing his appearance and coming back in disguise is in multiple summaries of the novel/drama. it's not a spoiler

Exactly idk why it's so hard for drama editors to let him (as the male lead) get full character arcs and not just a tool for romance.

now that the director has changed the team and cast for this looks very promising. i just wish it was based on another novel. i'm still not sold on the story... i read about 90% of it a few months ago and didn't feel like finishing it. i don't know how the "ML changes his entire face and becomes completely unrecognizable, without any facial scars no less" can work in a non-fantasy historical drama without feeling ridiculous. their revenge plans weren't really all that engaging or exciting either. with so many better novels available for adaptation don't know why linmon/tencent chose this one, it's not even a big ip.

I still hope it turns out good maybe linghe/yuxiao chemistry and acting can save the plot and the screenwriter can make it more interesting than the novel.

Why did Esther leave ? i've seem rumors but everyone is saying something different

Why is her new drama The winner page not added to her works? does it even have a page yet?

yeah but Linmon as the producer can still change him if they choose to

There are rumors that Ci Tang's director has changed while others say it's still Yi Jun. also about FL casting Yuxiao still rumored but some say it's not her and production is postponed and won't happen in September anymore.

this project is a mess and atp they are just wasting ZLH time that he could spend filming another drama 😔

Probably comes out April/May 2027

for Overdo i think it's just bad editing of the scenes. the director hasn't really deleted his scenes thankfully
