You're welcome

That is, the team contacted the actor and, after preliminary talks, the actor showed interest in the project. The parties talk further, adjust the cast and crew, send a more detailed script. The actor tentatively reserves the expected time to create the drama. But it can happen that during this period the actor or crew change their minds, or the shooting date is postponed and the actor has to be on another set during this time, or whatever, and eventually the normal contract for participation in the drama is not signed.

I emphasize that these are just rumors. I've been in C-ent too long to get excited about something someone made up and posted on Weibo.

Yes, it looks interesting, but it appears that the fans of this book have already become a festering mob. Does anyone need a new wave of hatred?

Anyway, you asked if this was confirmed information, not if the role might appeal to XZ. What he may or may not like is just our guess, but the fact that his participation in this drama is not confirmed is a fact.

I was not going to comment, but what the heck, they can assign titles to actors that come to mind, I can express an opinion on it. Are you offended by my comment? It offends me that some people consider as evidence something that is not evidence. Maybe my Chinese isn't the best, but I haven't seen Xiao Zhan's name mentioned anywhere in any official place next to this drama. The poster shows a young, handsome man, but it's not Xiao Zhan, it's some kind of drawing. Yes, the drama is in plans to be made. Rumor has it that XZ signed a contract of intent, but even if he did, it doesn't mean he will star there. Currently, Weibo is rumbling that XZ will not star in the drama.
If you're a new fan it's good for you to know that you shouldn't trust the information posted on MDL, because it changes faster than some people change their underwear :(

And in case it was still unclear to anyone - actor Xiao Zhan's participation in this project as of July 27, 2023 is purely a rumor.

Because a certain group of idiots can't stand it and posts whatever rumors they find. Another group of idiots does hopeless verification based on a third group of idiots. I don't know, maybe they want to score points for themselves by moderating the site or maybe they get excited by the hype.

Yes, I've heard rumors, yes, they sound plausible and the chance that XZ will play this role is high in my opinion, but they are just rumors. It's just that MDL has always been the home of rumors and unverified information. Get used to it or suffer.

PS Personally, I am against the idea of adding commercials to an actor's account. It's no art project, no mini-essay, it's a damn commercial. But that's just my opinion.

First you need to make a page for this title on MDL. When adding the cast, put XZ's name and you're done.
Unfortunately, I don't remember how to make such a page. However, you must have the data of this movie, first of all the official title.
Top menu, 'explore' -> tv shows -> add new title.

If the film's page already exists, you can also go to the actor's page, select "edit this page" then "cast", add the title, "confirm" and wait for confirmation from the moderator.

Important note: the rules on MDL are constantly changing, editors are also different, it is always good to include an external link from, for example, a Chinese douban site.

Nice to see you too :)
Long-term relationships are not for me, so I am no longer a fan and not even an enthusiast, but respect and affection for the talent and for the person remained. Like to a good old friend with whom the roads have parted, but thanks to mutual friends I still know all the gossip from his life :)

Thank you for instructing me on how to watch and evaluate movies and trailers. You see, until now I thought that a trailer is something to encourage someone to watch a production, not to cause us to ignore it and waste two hours of film and perhaps some money just because someone made an "effort" Everyone makes an effort to some degree and it's the trailers that help us judge whether their efforts suit our tastes. When it comes to my money and my time it's up to me to decide whether I want to devote it to a title or not, not to be lectured to by anonymous people on the Internet. I have already wasted enough minutes on this film. Thank you for this conversation.

What I saw was the final competition or show. You see, I know that an actor doesn't have to be able to do everything in dance (although he is considered a professional dancer). I don't care how hard the actor tries, just what the end result is. If I can clearly see in the end result that the actor has been replaced by a professional dancer who is awesome, then something is grating on me. I have the same in the fight scenes. If the actor is skilled enough to pretend to fight and the editing is done in such a way that it's hard to distinguish where the actor is and where the professional is, I'm satisfied, but if you can clearly see the difference between the two, it just looks awful. Fans have a different tolerance for certain things than passersby. I called the director cheap because he couldn't direct or edit the scene well. I don't care about the ideology or fan service behind it, I care about the effect on screen and this one was deeply disappointing. It couldn't be simpler. Either you hire an actor who can do difficult choreography, or you change the choreography to one where the actor can handle it, or you do the editing so that it doesn't hit the viewer that these are two completely different people at clearly different skill levels.

I wouldn't be myself if I didn't recommend the music program Our Song (season one) to you. Waiting every week for each new episode and then watching those episodes on YT for a whole week were the best moments of my life (sounds like I'm exaggerating, but I hate Christmas and thanks to this show this whole period was beautiful for me). Xiao Zhan just became wildly popular thanks to The Untamed, but he didn't realize it. From episode to episode you can see how he is getting used to his popularity and on top of that he is learning a lot. This program brought him several friendships that are still very important to him today. In addition, Our Song is really funny. I highly recommend it!

I have read the discussion going on in the topic and I think that the chances of both of them starring in the same production are high. Things are going badly in c-ent and many people recognize this. Actors and actresses are trying to get out of the limbo that is idol drama. XZ is independent, so he is slowly succeeding. Older actresses like Yang Mi and Yang Zi are also finally gaining independence and choosing slightly more serious productions. If Zhau Lusi also decides at some point that she should change her repertoire and become a more serious actress, by all means they can meet on the same set as partners. It may not be in a year or two, but the chances are there. I think you can count on the fingers of one hand the actors/actresses that XZ would never want to perform with in his life for any money in the world, and I don't think ZL is one of them.

I dodn't

I'm afraid this is impossible for the following reasons:
1. he is busy playing in the film
2. he has not accepted similar offers at home, so he will not do it abroad
3. China has banned such programs, so he won't go abroad to promote such programs, because that would be unpolitical and suicidal for his career in China.

Thank you, I don't need your suggestion, I came up with it myself. I just expressed my disappointment and dissatisfaction, which is my right. Especially since dancers in this style are used to acrobatics. So when I see a "dancer" who doesn't do certain figures in a dance because they are too dangerous, and he is replaced by someone who can do it in such a way that he doesn't hurt himself - well, it's not like they hired as an actor a total amateur in dance. Or maybe they did? Because that's exactly the message the piece I watched gave me.
So yeah, I'm not going to watch it.

Thank you. Lovely talking to you too :)

I saw some scenes on a Chinese fim channel today. it was a program about pending premieres and what is currently popular. It was without subtitles, so I don't know what they were saying. What puzzles me is why, if a supposedly actor-dancer is hired, stunts are performed by a substitute? If you hire an actor-dancer then the viewer has a right to expect to see that actor dance and not someone more streamlined. Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire danced themselves and that's why their films were so great. If your dancer can't do a figure then either change the choreography or the actor. What the director did is just cheap.

Thank you, I'm already checking :)

I'm stuck on episode 27, and the problem is not just TLP but the whole c-ent. I write texts for a platform owned by Tencent and authors are instructed not to be too ambitious, not to write too hard. So they produce shallow, boring books focused (in FL's case) solely on romance and then the same dramas are produced. It hurts. A TLP drama with such visuals, with such good actors should have the depth to make it a classic for decades. But when I see all of SY's potential as a character, what should be shown and what is missing, it just hurts. The BTS clips show how much this character was given by XZ and in the drama half of it was cut out in editing anyway. He and Ren Min really performed brilliantly, especially with their voices, but in China there has to be a voiceover, so half of the emotion was cut out. I don't know if there will ever be a day when producers really start to appreciate the treasures they have.
Sorry to write this in response to your comment. I hope you don't mind.

Listen, I have a huge request. I have stopped watching TLP for some reasons. I'm tempted to come back once all the episodes are up, but I'd like to know two pieces of information beforehand. Namely in which episode and why SY will go through these bloody trials. Will he do it for ZY or for the kingdom, or for any other reason like a sense of betrayal, guilt, etc.? So if anyone would remember my request and drop me an answer on PM or under this post, I would be very grateful :)
