After Enter the Game, Zuer is rumored to film 鸦雀无踪 https://movie.douban.com/subject/36572737/ which is a film(?) or short drama by Wen Muye an award-winning director about a father and daughter. Zhang Yi is rumored to play the dad and if his casting is true it would make sense why she'd take the project since he's one of the most popular C-actors and a ratings king.
A lot of actresses are vying for the role FYI, but Tencent and New Classics Media want liuliang stars and established…
🤷♀️
Lol this project is a dumpster fire currently, everyday it's on the Weibo hot search because Dylan Wang's fans keep bullying Meng Ziyi so whatever the plot is it's going to be quite lame
Meng Ziyi definitely wants to do it, especially since it's a female centric drama even if Dylan is 1st billed…
I'm not taking any sides I'm just saying Jia Shikai is a piece of work https://wiki.d-addicts.com/Jia_Shi_Kai e.g. he produced Fireworks of my Heart (funded by his agency and Yangyang) and when Wei Daxun's role got more attention mid-airing he instructed the director and production team to cut Wei Daxun's scenes from the unaired episodes so he wouldn't outshine Yangyang. It led to Fireworks getting a 2.7 rating on Douban 😂 and the leads getting panned in China even though it wasn't that bad, and Wei Daxun got really popular off the drama and became a liuliang even though he had very little screentime. He's not different to Yuzheng, Gong Yuhan and a lot of other producers or agents you would hope your fave never has to collaborate with.

Well, it's not just rape, it's animal abuse because horses don't naturally want to copulate with humans? You'd have to force them to do it and it sounds awful🤮 i never understood why this novel is so popular compared to others, a lot of people are messed up for wanting women to get raped as punishment or worse, find bestiality satisfying as punishment
A lot of actresses are vying for the role FYI, but Tencent and New Classics Media want liuliang stars and established…
I saw a Chinese summary of the problematic plot points on Douban and it mentioned the FL's enemies being raped by soldiers or subject to bestiality with a horse and the FL being smug over it 🤮🤮🤮 hopefully if that was in the novel, they need to edit it out
This is all Xinli’s doing , isn’t it curious that both Meng Ziyi and Wang Hedi have upcoming Xinli dramas…
Meng Ziyi definitely wants to do it, especially since it's a female centric drama even if Dylan is 1st billed the screentime and attention will be on her mostly. Dylan's fans are the ones kicking up a huge fuss even though his agency is quietly telling them to stop, they think she's too old for the FL role, they don't like Jia Shikai & her agency Yuekai because they are very crafty at billing fights and screentime, they mainly think Meng Ziyi is trying to use Dylan's fame to become a bigger liuliang and it's going to be a case of Dylan having very little screentime or being peripheral like Leo Wu in LLTG (Xie Jingxing's parts are 30% vs Shen Miao's 70% in the book) and the FL will dominate the story but Dylan fans will be "used" to raise viewership ratings so they don't support him taking this project.
I have a question why is no actress wants to act in this drama? what is the reason? if its about the anti fans…
A lot of actresses are vying for the role FYI, but Tencent and New Classics Media want liuliang stars and established actresses with proven good results who have collaborated with New Classics Media (the producer) before:
- Dilreba was the front runner and rejected it. Dylan Wang was then rumored and he will only accept if he is 1st billed.
- Song Zuer also apparently rejected it after Dilreba surprisingly but she's likely doing 入局, then 大唐辟珠记 so her schedule is full plus she is probably not too keen on being 2nd billed sadly.
- Meng Ziyi was then rumoured, her agency Yuekai and her boss Jia Shikai and known to be very pushy and great at negotiating. Her rise is all down to her boss Jia Shikai who is also Yangyang's agent and now partner at Yuekai. Jia Shikai is buying a lot of hot searches linking her to this drama plus he is influential enough and Meng Ziyi is currently one of Tencent's princesses plus she's already collaborated with New Classics before.
- Dylan Wang's fans started protesting because they don't like Meng Ziyi for the FL role and think she's trying to use Dylan's fame to get more popular and raise her industry status, similar to how Rosy Zhao got popular off LLTG (Leo Wu was 1st billed but the plot and screentime was centred on the FL, this is how Malicious Empress is going to be as well, the ML will have less screentime but be 1st billed if it's Dylan). They are protesting heavily for Dylan to reject the role or kick MZY but i don't think Dylan cares that much, he's not that powerful to get rid of someone Jia Shikai, Tencent, New Classics Media want as the FL.
FYI the story is from a decade ago and a bit misogynistic because the FL's revenge consists of having all the women who offended her in her past life gangraped, subject to bestiality, or tortured, I've not read it but I always wonder why people like this so much. It could be a big reason why actresses with better options like Dilreba or Song Zuer who were rumored to have rejected the role didn't want to do it.
I just wanna say, that Tian Xuning is also gonna benefit from the collab with Shen Yue. She has a huge international…
Sorry for the late reply.
Tian Xuning isn't popular because he isn't from any established acting school, apparently he auditioned 3 times and didn't get in after 3 years but he signed with an agency to do modelling and small roles. Prior to Revenged Love he was really not a good actor and is quite awkward in his other works, and even with Revenged Love's success he will find it tricky to convert his popularity into mainstream BG dramas because 1) China banned BLs so his success is seen as mostly "abroad" even if everyone watched via piracy and there is no way to quantify his viewership ratings 2) Many actresses' fandoms may protest if their favorite actress acts with him and spam his BL gifs as a way to bully him 3) China's TV and Film industry is feeling the effects of an economic downturn currently so new projects are delayed or downscaled.
Anyway after he left the modelling agency he signed with Huace Film a big drama producing company which produced Revenged Love and that's how he got his big break. His new and current agency produces a lot of dramas and that's why he suddenly got popular and is getting more regular drama roles now.
New rumors of Zuer's next drama: Serious spy drama 入局 with Guo Qilin, it's about a pair of siblings in 1942 China during the war. https://idol001.com/dianshi/2025/0919/7882.html the director is unconfirmed but Song Zuer is playing Guo Qilin's younger sister and they are both from Tianjin and friends irl from a variety show. The drama is set to kick off this week but Zuer is filming Cousin Wanfu and will join later. 85% confirmed.
This is unconfirmed but the novel is really popular which is why I think it's fake (a lot of novel fans want Zuer) and the FL role is highly coveted. It's about a princess FL who's buried alive and gets rescued by a grave robber ML, together they investigate various conspiracies and try to uncover the palace plot that led to her "death".
Hey, are you living in the caveman era or what? With all the tech we have, you could’ve just done a quick search…
She wasn't accused of cheating IIRC, she went to USA to study until high school because her childhood agent had her locked in on a contract where the agent pocketed most of her earnings (IIRC the agent was actress Shu Chang's uncle and for years Shu Chang claimed to be Zuer's cousin to get her child acting roles even though they aren't related) and wouldn't let her break her contract without paying a big sum but Zuer's mother is a working class single mum who isn't rich and couldn't pay the fee. Her mum sent her to USA to study in hopes that Zuer moving abroad would force the agent to let her go free and years later when she moved back she signed with XiTian, her previous agency that also tried hard not to let her leave in 2023.
Anyway when she returned from USA, she had to take the Gaokao as an independent candidate as well as the Beijing Film Academy art audition (she got 3rd and is a wellknown child actor so it's not surprising), what's disputed is that she didn't finish her high school in China and wasn't registered to her hometown Tianjin's Gaokao student pool but her mother paid a local academy to register her as a student even though she graduated from a US high school. The correct procedure would be to use her US high school certificate and register as a foreign candidate like Arthur Chen I believe (for what's worth Arthur Chen was interviewed saying he got tips from Zuer on how to audition for BFA), but there's speculation over whether she actually finished high school in USA or not because she was back in China acting in 2017 and before her Gaokao she was filmed behind the scenes at Novoland Eagle Flag doing Gaokao revision and writing essays. So my own perception is that she didn't finish high school in USA and came back to resume her acting career once her childhood agent relinquished their claims, because 💰💰💰💰, then her mother or new agency registered her at a local academy even though she wasn't a student there. Nevertheless she took the Gaokao as an independent candidate and got a decent score WHILE filming a blockbuster TV series like Novoland Eagle Flag next to lots of veterans like Zhang Jiayi, Jiang Shuying and Li Guangjie, and she juggled everything successfully?
The only issue arises from her registration at a local Tianjin academy even though she didn't study there, it doesn't concern her Gaokao score (if there was cheating involved she would be hated and banned because it's the Gaokao), or her film school audition (if you look at her acting , singing, or other skills she's clearly the 1st or 2nd best in her batch, even Huang Junjie who was 2nd in the audition exam isn't as good of an actor as Zuer). Plus the whole problem was started because of her childhood agent, for years they tried to sell the image of actress Shu Chang being her cousin and did the same with 2 other child actors, and in order to not pay the contract breaking fee her mother had to send her abroad so her acting career stopped, until her agent was satisfied that Zuer wasn't planning to continue acting. But Zuer always knew she wanted to act as an adult too, thus she came back to China and auditioned for Beijing Film Academy once she was in her late teens even if she had to do it as an independent candidate without any school helping her.
Another tidbit: her stage name Song Zuer is given by her childhood agent aka Shu Chang's uncle, because his wife's surname is Song. It's said they mixed the names of Song Zuying (famed soprano) and Rong Zuer, and they wanted to ban her from using the name if she broke contract. Her real name is Sun Fanqing which sounds a lot nicer than Zuer (the transliteration of Joey) , she once said on a variety that her mum paid a name specialist for ideas and chose it. But because she was already quite successful and famous as a child using the name Song Zuer, she decided to keep using it.
Did she really came 3rd in china’s toughest exam “GaoKao”. Is she some sort of genius or what? She must…
She came in 3rd in the 艺考 of Beijing Film Academy, i.e. the entrance audition exam which consists of a few parts like acting, line reading, voice acting, camera test, flexibility, and talent performance (iirc Song Zuer sang because she's a good singer). In her year the exam was very competitive, Leo Wu Lei ranked 1st, Huang Junjie 2nd, and Song Zuer was 3rd. There are other actors from the same Beijing Film Academy batch e.g. Sabrina Zhuang, Lin Boyang, Kudusjan Anwar, Yang Xizi, Zhong Lili, Qin Niuzhengwei (one of the girls embroiled in Kris Wu's scandal) https://wapbaike.baidu.com/tashuo/browse/content?id=e6d27944ae5db7735cd29b72
What did she do? Are you human yourself to accuse her of unproven claims?
You guys don't understand how the law works at all.
It's innocent until proven guilty, the burden of proof lies with the prosecution to prove with direct, reliable evidence that you are liable for the crime, meaning to say the cops will hand over the evidence and the prosecution will decide if the evidence is strong enough to charge someone with a crime. Then the prosecution has to prove to the judge that there is a case, and the defendant will hire a trial lawyer to defend their case.
Point being, it's innocent until proven guilty. Not guilty until proven innocent. I realise I'm talking to a bunch of drama-watching legal retards here, and i know for a fact you don't have a law degree, but still it's really frustrating to see people say dumb things like "Show your proof she's innocent". Let's say the police accuses you of murder without any evidence and says that unless you prove you are innocent, you are guilty and need to be kept in remand (where they may hit you, starve you, threaten you to confess), do you think it's fair? You may think it's fair, but that's only because you guys don't actually study law. I'm not sure what you ever studied but I hope to God you don't harm anyone with that idiocy.
If you want justice why are you posting so much on Song Yiren's page instead of Yu Menglong? Aren't you accusing…
But I am not worried of my IP being revealed though? Why are you warning me to use VPN? Why don't you tell me where I am from? What I don't understand is why are threatening to dox me while claiming "Let's be civilised", you have a 1 day old account and you are already threatening to dox and check IP addresses (I know that is impossible), what kind of behaviour is this? Someone says something you don't like so you threaten to check their IP address and tell them to "be careful"?
I hope your parents take away your internet rights, you sound like a brainrotted teenager.
After that, she's strongly rumored as the a FL for costume drama https://kisskh.at/791246-da-tang-pi-zhu-ji

The ML isn't confirmed yet but the novel is very popular, the director is rumoured to be Fei Zhenxiang which sounds too good to be true?
She's already filming a new spy drama today, Enter the Game, right after her costume drama wrapped. Her role is a journalist and sister of the ML
