I know this drama doesn't appeal to everyone. It's understandable that people have different tastes. I just want to say that yesterday I watched a few episodes again and I was delighted with the way the camera was handled - long takes, wide sets, close-ups, dynamics, cuts... I'm not talking about the whole drama, because it has better and worse scenes, but about those episodes where the ninth company was going through its baptism of fire (18-19). I really applaud the cameraman, director and editor for these few episodes.

Thank you for sharing your story with us. I really appreciate it.

Thank you :)

Yeap, it was great! I don't remember, when I had so much fun!

I watched 2 episodes and had a great time :)

2020 has taught fans not to believe any rumors. Some channels say one day that Xiao Zhan will not star in JoL2, that he has been swapped with another actor, the next day they prove that he will star in this drama. I only trust the official reports, and they are silent about YBY's role. As long as they are silent, I have the right to hope :)
If Xiao Zhan cut his hair very short, it may (or may not) be a hint that he will be wearing a heavy wig in the summer. Longer hair under a wig is a nightmare. However, I remind you that Xiao Zhan is still on the set of WDB, so if he did anything with his hair, it was for this role. His character served in the military in his youth, so they may shoot scenes of him as a young recruit. Because of the hairstyle, these will probably be his last scenes on this set.
Of course, if he cut his hair :)

And that is why Xiao Zhan will choose projects carefully and work with those companies he wants (or at least I hope so). I realize this sounds arrogant, but Xiao Zhan must also already realize that he is called the god of wealth, so he must be careful whose pockets he fills.
I predict that YGY will be an absolute financial success, bigger than Douluo Dalu and The Untamed combined, because it focuses more on the typical female viewer.
I honestly wonder what dramas Xiao Zhan will choose now realizing his responsibility. The pressure some companies put on him must be huge.
I think we'll see him in the second season of JoL. A drama without him will sell well, but with him it will be an international financial hit. Only a fool would want to replace him with someone else.

These are the kind of dramas I like - realistic, well shot, making the viewer think, questioning what is true. Paradoxically, I don't have enough of the female element. Focusing the plot solely on one thread also tires me out a bit. Side plots are important, though, because they allow you to take a breath. I miss it here. Still, the drama is very good. It hasn't been an equally good drama for years.

I can't wait for the subtitles. ML looks like he would be my kind of hero. Tough guy.

I'm actually looking forward to this drama for a reason completely unexpected to myself. Shi Ying will be played by three actors and when I saw the pictures of these kids 5 and 12 years old (or so), I found them to be really perfectly matched with the adult actor. I can't wait to see these little actors and will definitely be cheering for them.

S+ productions are a hallmark of the platform. They invest the most money there, hire the most popular actors/actresses, and make a big buzz around the whole thing.
Theoretically, S+ productions are supposed to be the best in terms of quality, but recently many fans have been disappointed because the promotion raises their expectations and they get something average or even weak. So, for about a year now, for many viewers S+ is rather synonymous with disappointed hopes and a soap bubble. As they say - just a flash, no photo

S+. I don't know what the answer has to do with being a fan of an actor or not. It's not the fan who makes the decision, it's the producer, and Tencent has been promoting this drama as S+ for the past year. Truthfully, if they had any higher category, they probably would have given it to this drama.
That doesn't change the fact that S+ dramas come out the way they do, so I don't have very high expectations for the quality of the script and production.
But I do have expectations for the actors, all of them. Acting in an S+ production is a great chance to show off to the producers and viewers, so I think the actors will do their best.

glad to gear that :)

I just started watching, but I am captivated. I love the realism of this drama. Its style of filming. The camera work and light work are excellent. Of course I'm still lost in the plot, but I'm interested in its development and the fate of the characters. The music reminds me of Red Cliff and Zhuge Liang, so far, is exactly how I imagined him to be.

Aya! Let man live! He is only one. If he were to fulfill all the whims of all his fans, he would have died of overwork two years ago. One fan wants one, the other fan wants the second, the third fan wants the third, and so on forever ... I see you're a new fan. Xfx is a gang of beggars. It is our tradition to beg for food. This is our fate. It is our pleasure and our pride :)
If you were counting on daily cakes, you chose the wrong idol. Xiao Zhan never spoiled us with food, but once he has cooked it is delicious! :)

Definitely in the same class as Sean Connery. Even the name is a bit similar :)

I personally don't use one because I don't have any regional restrictions, but I've heard that there are free VPNs that can help.
Have a nice day as well :)

It's official channel on YT. You can watch The Wolf here

In 4 months Xiao Zhan gave us 3 new songs and you still can't get enough? :)
Being in love lasts 2 years. Most people like one artist for about that long. Then they shift their attention to someone else, someone new. But in XZ's case, it's different because most of his fans have a true, sincere, pure and platonic love for him, taking boundless pleasure in his diversity and wonderful character for themselves. He is our friend, our family - that is how much he has entered our hearts. That is why he will be like Jackie Chan or Andy Lau - an icon even at the age of 60 or 80.

It's a drama mostly for boys, so there's a harem, but it's more fun than romantic. I don't remember romantic corny scenes, so if there were any, they disappeared in the shadow of the action.
