About supertopic. Let me tell you the real story. The hosts of drama supertopic, made before the filming started, are all ZJM cfans. ZLH fans not even allowed to be the host which is drama supertopic usually has hosts from fans of all casts. so ZLH cfans made another supertopic and as expected it's more popular and Cherry Amber official weibo posted ZJM birthday stills in supertopic made by ZLH cfans. Cherry Amber official Weibo also interacting with ZLH studio post about Jiang Qiaoxi's looks in Hongkong. After this happened, ZJM cfans complained to Cherry Amber, accusing Cherry Amber weibo admin is a ZLH fans. Also reminding them that Cherry Amber is a BIG FEMALE LEAD drama so they should pay attention to supertopic made by ZJM fans too. And these complains made them finally also follow drama supertopic made by ZJM cfans.
ZJM cfans insulted other casts of Our Generation by saying others can't act. The status of Big FL seems to be a disease these days. Fake mary sue fans that can't even carry the data for drama nor its popularity and quality but being so arrogant and like to belittle others. ZJM cfans recently flooded the Romance in the Alley drama hot search, asking Zhang Kaizhou director to delete JQX scenes. They also insult ZLH's visual and acting skills.
Zlh said that he will go go to hong kong soon, and that he really looks forward to going there. Right now I am…
Can you see the reason why I wrote that reply? Oh. That Skz16 account edited her comments already so you don't see what the actual comment was. Her comment might make ZLH being misunderstood getting excited for "that" HK scenes. He has already been attacked by ZJM fans as well as LEIMAI fans for sexual harassment in Weibo and other Social Media too. I'm not afraid of that actor fans. Since you said it first then let the war begins.
1. Got harassed by ZLH fans since TPR started? No ZLH fans care about ZJM until her cfans joined in the discussion of ZLH fans complained to TPR Producer to give Pei Wenxuan a justice as ML. Her cfans slandering ZLH cfans for asking a change in script and spreading rumour that ZLH cfans is ruining the drama. when the real thing happened was they never asked for those things, they only want ZLH being treated well as ML. Now it's proven that he got mistreated while he gave so much to the show despite his status as 2nd billing. Don't you know that TPR released a BTS where the crew carelessly put a subtitle based on their own assumption and made ZLH being slandered by ZJM cfans for sexual harassing her? That's what happened during TPR. ZJM fans always bragging about BIG FL drama but in terms of data, her fans unable to carry it. acting? she also got lots of critics, she's afraid of hanging wire, afraid of romantic scenes, using fake horse, refused to rehearse the scene during filming. Yuan Yimei the producer said a lot of actors has turned down to cooperate with ZJM because they think she isn't suitable for costume dramas. And this is said by TPR producer not ZLH fans. So be grateful that ZLH accept that offer so your idol can have that BIG FL drama.
2. Don't you know ZJM fans were refusing ZLH as Jiang Qiaoxi? Before the filming started, they flooded Daylight's recent post comments section, demand to replace ZLH. Creating mess even before drama started.

And for your info, ZJM cfans insulted other casts of Our Generation by saying others can't act. Big FL seems to be a disease these days. Fake mary sue fans that can't even carry the data for drama nor its popularity and quality but being so arrogant and like to belittle others.
ZJM cfans recently flooded the Romance in the Alley drama hot search, asking the Zhang Kaizhou director to delete JQX scenes. They also insult ZLH's visual and acting skills.
4. "The problem with your side is you always pretend that his cfans are nice people when pretty much others know how much they like to drag zlh’s female partners"
Want to know some more amusing information? ZJM cfans ever try to make ZLH and JT's fans to have fanwar. But luckily, ZLH cfans and JT cfans are in good terms as JT cfans respect this newcomer and her big fans reply to ZJM fans that both are in good terms.
I've seen NiuMai cpf has been doing worst things ever. Change face of xu ruohan, comparing ZLH interaction with Jing Tian to ZJM. So desperate. And they are all coming from ZJM side. Prove? For voting on Weibo Summit, they arrange votes for ZJM only and not ZLH. So ZLH fans has the right to refuse those CPF coming from ZLH side.
5. "Swaying others opinions early on before the airing time."
I only replying to that Skz16 but you accuse me with this and that and bringing whole weibo thing here. I will just let people read and decide.
Before TPR begins, I was excited as I have a good impression about ZJM. A friend of mine has reminded me that ZJM fandom might be annoying but I ignore that. I was surprised that turns out her words are proven. A fandom that always belittle others and think their idol is on level of an Oscar awardee when there are people who think her acting is too theatrical and uncomfortable to be watched. Everyone has their own shortcomings so no need to always look down on actors who is considered to have traffic. I know how desperate ZJM team want her to go into liuliang path, 3 idol dramas in a row. But it's clear not everyone can be liuliang. Being 1st billing is a huge responsible. Talk to those ZJM cfans to work on their data for Our Generation. Don't just rob the data of 2nd billing actor and be mad when his fans bragging about it cause it's their hard work.
Hope after reading this people will have a clear one to decide. No one saint in Weibo yet the sexual assault slander towards ZLH has been in TikTok, X, and Instagram too. So I speak up to prevent more slander. A normal things that fans should do instead of looking down at other actors.
Zlh said that he will go go to hong kong soon, and that he really looks forward to going there. Right now I am…
Zhang Linghe said he's looking forward to the scene at HKU and the days when Jiang Qiaoxi becoming its student. Please give a clear explanation since everyone who read the novel knows what happened in Hongkong and might get misunderstand by your statement and emoji. Please stop make people having wild assumption. The actress fans and shipper from her previous drama have attacked him in Weibo and also other Social Media since The Princess Royal and also to this drama. I have seen you spreading wrong info too before. Please be careful with your words and stop acting like you know it all. We don't want him to get more hate for doing nothing wrong.
Saw another'95 male artists fans calling Zhang Linghe "useless" lol it is funny cause this "useless" guy is one…
They now saying zhang linghe is depending on actress. It's so funny. Don't they know that on his 3 latest dramas his character popularity surpasses the first billing🤣
Also seems they got mad because of Gucci endorsement too.. Well, it's not his fault if Gucci finally chose him. It's also not his fault that others fandom prefer him. He has personalities and gradually improve his acting skills.
In terms of fandom power, during the voting of Weibo TV and Internet summit, Zhang Linghe has surpasses him in artists, role (PWX) and dramas category. They must be bitter because their idols doesn't have a strong traffic after that modern drama where he's the second billing (oops). Zhang Linghe also have more supertopic members than that actor.
And Zhang Linghe achieved more than first billing is something that unexpected. People notice his improvement and his performances keep attracting new fans. While their idol being first billing on his recent drama but the acting is supported by the senior actors.
That actor fans also said: why iQIYI invest on Zhang Linghe that much when the fact is their fav is the real prince of iQIYI with lots of big IPs given to him. Their fav had the platform support which Zhang Linghe never had. But Zhang Linghe still manage to be more popular than him.
They really call Zhang Linghe and his fans out in MDL because of jealousy. It's so petty of them to talk shit on others under their idol mydramalist fanpage which showing their fandom's pettiness and insecurity🤭
It's sad to see some people being judgemental about Zhang Linghe's cfans without knowing what exactly the issue is.
Saw some users here said his fans being overreacting and accuse them as toxic when these people doesn't even understand what is going on in Zhang Linghe's fandom. I believe there are many such users who are also not aware of the truth and judging things with their half knowledge.
So here is some insight about the current situation:
Upon the rumour on Chasing Jade which out from few weeks ago, Zhang Linghe’s fans have asked his agency (Startimes)/studio to choose projects with good quality and also good crew where he and his character will be fairly treated. They also demand his team to protect his rights while also wisely choose projects for his career growth and how it will be beneficial for his career instead of benefiting his agency’s new actors. I saw someone said here that in The Princess Royal, there are no Startimes artist other than Zhang Linghe while in fact Startimes has brought new actors from their company in 5 of Zhang Linghe’s dramas - My Journey To You (1 artist), The Princess Royal (1 artist), Love’s Rebellion (2 artists), The Best Thing (1 artist), Our Generation (1 artist). His cfans started reacting like this because of what happened during My Journey To You time, where Gong Ziyu being weakened by deleting highlights that might strengthen his characters (Fyi, the scene where GSJ slapped Gong Ziyu was a changed made during filming and wasn't on the script, not even in the novel. It's unnecessary but Director made it to final cut and it made him ridiculed over Weibo). Not to mention the mistreatment to his character on his latest projects, The Princess Royal. Zhang Linghe being stepping stone for other actors, getting mistreatment and Startimes didn’t protect him well. The fans demand was never been taken seriously. Startimes never protect him properly from insults and hate speech and recently his fans found out the lawyer who handle his lawsuit against haters might be hired by Zhang Linghe himself and not his agency. Maybe if Startimes is treating him well, fans will not have this much complain.
Some users here think Chasing Jade problem is about the billing issue and its Female Centric story while the demand made by Zhang Linghe's cfans never mentioned about those two things. They demand and hope Zhang Linghe will have more various challenging character to be playe. Billing is never an issue for Zhang Linghe or his fans. For example, in The Princess Royal he surpasses the first billing in every aspect (refer to The Princess Royal official account for final report of drama performance and other reports that are coming from various authorized source) even when he had unfair screentime. I read some of international fans complaining similar plot and not well executed or not well promoted costume dramas these days which might also be the reason some of it aren’t doing well this year. And this is what Zhang Linghe’s cfans also stated in their demand as the Chasing Jade story and the ML character quite similar to his previous drama, not to mention the production company never produce a costume drama before so their quality in this field is still being questionable. His fans afraid if this drama will be the production company’s trial & error and Zhang Linghe will waste 120 days in Hengdian with all the hanging wires things. With his rhinitis and waist & neck pain, fans wish him to get some proper rest and treatment before joining any new crew. His cfans even said it's okay to play a small role but a challenging one in a good quality project. But his company keep pushing him to take another similar project continuously. Since 2021 until now, he barely have a month for rest. In his rest time between filming one drama to another, there will be many of brand activities. His fans demands are reasonable since these are basic things every artist should have. It's all for Zhang Linghe. Fans hope agency will wisely shape his career as an actor instead of being a cashcow with crazy schedule.
Now another point while many said Zhang Linghe himself accepted the project then why fans still having problem with it:
Anyone who follows Zhang Linghe for a long time should know he has said many times that he wants to challenge himself with different roles (villain, police, special forces, etc.). Those who are aware about C-Ent industry's culture they should know not everytime it is in artists control to choose project as per their wish and Zhang Linghe has given this hint multiple times in his various interviews. So not every project he choosed to accept, sometimes he is forced too.
There's no such thing as he lose some fans because he accept Chasing Jade. His Supertopic about to reach 2 millions members and his followers on various platforms are still increasing day by day without him having any project being aired now. Cfans only throw their anger and disappointment to Startimes and studio and NEVER to Zhang Linghe.
Many people here admire his acting as Pei Wenxuan also his visual as PWX. TMI, if his Cfans didn't complain, we might have Pei Wenxuan having bangs (similar to SRH, many disliked that hairstyle) ugly sideburn and weird placement of hair-crown for his hairstyle. Thanks to his cfans who bravely complained when his first look was leaked so we got the Pei Wenxuan with hairstyle as in the drama and there are many as such things where we enjoyed things because his Cfans being "overreacted"😉
Fans wish for the time to come when they can see Zhang Linghe being treated fairly and get the proper treatment without fans need to fight for it or maybe the day when he will leave this trashy agency who only treat him as cashcow.
This situation can happen in any fandom as I also see these days several fandoms made such demands to their idols studio or agency. But one thing I never understand is whenever it’s Zhang Linghe fans who made such demands, they will always be labelled as toxic, misogynist, etc. This fandom is the most peaceful one I've ever seen until several mistreatment and insult towards Zhang Linghe happened. They are being forced by his agency and other fandoms doings to finally chose to speak up loudly.
Hopefully, after this explanation, people will be more cautious before speaking bad things about Zhang Linghe’s fans. It's easy to point your finger on others and label them as toxic because the unfair treatment might haven't been experienced by your idols. Once it happens to yours, you will understand how it feels.
Some of The Double fans in the comments are annoying. I don't care what you're all watching before watching TPR.…
If anyone said "It's just one comment". Yes. I'm reacting to that one comment that got liked by others. The Double fans started it first. Not TPR fans as we just react to it
I looked through the recent comments here, but I don't see an issue? No one is trying to discredit this drama…
"I don't see an issue" "Just a single comment" as expected. Superior behaviour detected. So TPR fans aren't allowed to complain here🤣 when other keep mentioning other dramas in TPR comment section. Like a free promo page I guess just like how cheap The Double promoting their plot with hundreds of hot searches.
They can say they looking forward to it without mentioning other dramas too though. And to think that comments has 9 likes proving The Double fandom might also think the same way.
Some of The Double fans in the comments are annoying. I don't care what you're all watching before watching TPR. Stop mentioning that Yu Zheng drama which got popular because of buying lots of hot search here. Saying The Princess Royal need to thank The Double for its popularity? Really? When TPR reservations has been in top 10 and top 5 of Youku upcoming drama list.. And TPR got 1M and 2M reservations just in 11 hours.. Can cdrama watchers stop leaving comments that discredit others hardwork by saying they need to thank others? TPR DOESN'T NEED TO THANK OTHER DRAMAS FOR ITS POPULARITY.
lol we are in line like we have concert tickets and waiting to get inside.... 😂 this series can thank the Double…
The Princess Royal doesn't need to thank The Double or any other dramas for its popularity. It has always been in top 10 of weibo upcoming drama list if it released materials. Also this drama get 1M & 2M reservation just in 11 hours. If it need to thank someone or something it should be The Grand Princess Novel & The Leads also their hardwork. You discredit all of their hardwork just for thanking your not-that-good drama. Please delete this comment.
MJTY actually made me notice and become a fan of his acting and SKOP made me a bigger fan. Before that I only…
idk why you can't accept there are people who fall for his acting? you fall for wang xingyue acting that it's more wooden in sokp than zlh's tho. have you watch flourish in time? have you watch his debut drama maiden holmes? he's been good & improving since debut tho.
Can you please explain why you felt "tired" of his performances in MJTY and SOKP? kinda interested to know since…
lmao. have you ever think that's what the director asked him to do? and it's happen because the his trauma during snowy days. tbh, the sokp novel itself isn't as great as talked by people. just a so so story for me. and who is this professional film critics you mentioned? because I only see people cursing zlh because of how bad/ugly the shoots taken by director zhu rui bin (this dir is sucks by the way)
you don't hate him as actor but you say all of this is kinda hypocrite. also, all of the name you consider are great is mostly having 10+ years in the industry while zhang linghe is only 4 years and considered as a rockie actor.
also cheng lei? gosh. a friend of mine who is casual watcher said his character in mjty is boring cause he can only be angry all of the time. it's tbh, easy peasy character that only develop one kind of emotion lol
gong ziyu even having more layer, angry, sadness, fear. he has it all.
your critics is kinda subjective eventho you said you don't hate him as an actor as you still watch his varshow.
why people questioning zhang linghe's ability to carry pei wenxuan when the wrap up video has slightly tell us that he can pull it. whether it's a serious, cunning, teasing, and loving side of pei wenxuan. even the producer said that he's the chosen pei wenxuan. hating on him will not make the leads change. if anyone feel bitter because their fav doesn't get picked as the leads then go cry under the producer's weibo. don't blame the actor who pick the script offered by them. I wish this drama will be aired as soon as possible and anyone who hate the leads (zjm & zlh) will be choked with the fact they are the right li rong and pei wenxuan and able to carry this drama.
I am sure he will prove you wrong with his another praise worthy performance and will not disappoint so many people…
are you sure zhang linghe and wang xingyue are on the same level? one is CAD graduates & backed by yuzheng. one is coming from non-acting background and backed by a small company? I watch wxy in delicacies destiny, sokp and aasol. he doesn't leave me a big impact as zhang linghe give. in sokp he's a wooden stiff. and to put itu objectively, the one nailed in sokp is that "lu xian" actor.
imo, wxy still don't have the capability to carry the show. even in modern drama with txw, people said how wooden he is.
idk why you insist to compare zlh with wxy after all of this fact.
seems you just hate him so much for getting lead role from your favorite novel.
for me at least he admit he's still lacking and willing to leard & hardworking to make progress in each work. and he's not as cocky as wang xingyue that after being only in low level of popular yet he already create some problem here and there. do you know he even compliment (mocking in disguise) of zhang linghe during mjty airing? wxy suddenly upload that he watch zlh's vlog and commenting on zlh's make up. it's so funny because zlh never do the same thing. while wxy tried to use others popularity to lift his own.
well if you like wang xingyue that much, just wish his behaviour will be fixed before it ruined him. also wish him to leave yu zheng before he becaming more and more like his boss lol
I am sure he will prove you wrong with his another praise worthy performance and will not disappoint so many people…
agree. wang xingyue has a wooden expression compared to xie wei. not even speaking with his eyes. while zhang linghe portraying xie wei with sad, madness, happy, loving eyes. I don't feel pretty much the same on zhang zhe. he just stand there, recite his line, and done.
you're right. wang xingyue is coming from huanyu entertainment which holds by yu zheng. yu zheng posted on how the producer of sokp gave wxy yan lin role but he asked for zz role because it's a white moonlight (baiyueguang) character that most of the time steal the attention. yet he failed and all of drama watcher fall in for xie wei instead of his madness.
well, dirty tricks won't get you to the top. only hardwork will.
a very failed attempt to discredit ZLH 🤡getting salty with others' success is a very serious disease ....please…
just an advice, you better delete your comment as it offended zlh fans who waited his dramas to air for a whole year and when some of it aired, you accused him for having strong backer & etc. he already get so much blame as people called him unlucky bcs this one can't be aired while it's the 3rd ml's fault.
you questioning whether he has a strong backer or came a wealthy family is kinda not make sense. is there anyone with strong backer got his drama not airing for a year? he has been working hard the past 2 years. nonstop filming dramas including this one. you saying he had his dramas aired because of strong backing or whether he came from a wealthy family, really insulting his hardwork.
also, you said that his manager works so hard for him to get him to where he is now? now I ask you, does your fave get into where she is now by herself? not because resources pushed by yuzheng, her boss?
if you so upset bcs your fave's drama can't air. you might want to ask the producer of this drama who refuted rumour of it going to air asap back on march 2023. and now it's coming true bcs of the 3rd ml's problem.
I should tell you, it's NOT bcs of iqiyi considering zlh's over exposure that this drama isn't being aired. it's BECAUSE of 3rd male lead & the drama team pull themselves into this "can't be aired" mess.
just delete it. or zlh fans will be accuse as the toxic one and the one to attack your fave again. while it's all your side that started it.
How reliable is that twitter melon account that recently posted saying that they deleted Zhou Junwei's parts.…
this melon might be true.
zjw was removed from the billing in the latest sokp weibo for iQIYI iJoy Conference last month. they mention wang xingyue then liu xiening. he still in the poster but his portion might be reduced a lot.
he might ended up like wang yueyi's character in LBFAD (due to some saying she's pro 🇯🇵 ) she was still in the drama but not getting in the promotion nor mentioned by LBFAD weibo account
I think it will be hard for zjw as well as he offended goverment with his action last year.
ZJM cfans insulted other casts of Our Generation by saying others can't act. The status of Big FL seems to be a disease these days. Fake mary sue fans that can't even carry the data for drama nor its popularity and quality but being so arrogant and like to belittle others. ZJM cfans recently flooded the Romance in the Alley drama hot search, asking Zhang Kaizhou director to delete JQX scenes. They also insult ZLH's visual and acting skills.

Don't you know that TPR released a BTS where the crew carelessly put a subtitle based on their own assumption and made ZLH being slandered by ZJM cfans for sexual harassing her? That's what happened during TPR. ZJM fans always bragging about BIG FL drama but in terms of data, her fans unable to carry it. acting? she also got lots of critics, she's afraid of hanging wire, afraid of romantic scenes, using fake horse, refused to rehearse the scene during filming. Yuan Yimei the producer said a lot of actors has turned down to cooperate with ZJM because they think she isn't suitable for costume dramas. And this is said by TPR producer not ZLH fans. So be grateful that ZLH accept that offer so your idol can have that BIG FL drama.
2. Don't you know ZJM fans were refusing ZLH as Jiang Qiaoxi? Before the filming started, they flooded Daylight's recent post comments section, demand to replace ZLH. Creating mess even before drama started.
About supertopic. Let me tell you the real story. The hosts of drama supertopic, made before the filming started, are all ZJM cfans. ZLH fans not even allowed to be the host which is drama supertopic usually has hosts from fans of all casts. so ZLH cfans made another supertopic and as expected it's more popular and Cherry Amber official weibo posted ZJM birthday stills in supertopic made by ZLH cfans. Cherry Amber official Weibo also interacting with ZLH studio post about Jiang Qiaoxi's looks in Hongkong. After this happened, ZJM cfans complained to Cherry Amber, accusing Cherry Amber weibo admin is a ZLH fans. Also reminding them tha Cherry Amber is a BIG FEMALE LEAD drama so they should pay attention to supertopic made by ZJM fans too. And these made them finally also follow drama supertopic made by ZJM cfans.
And for your info, ZJM cfans insulted other casts of Our Generation by saying others can't act. Big FL seems to be a disease these days. Fake mary sue fans that can't even carry the data for drama nor its popularity and quality but being so arrogant and like to belittle others.

His fans afraid if this drama will be the production company’s trial & error and Zhang Linghe will waste 120 days in Hengdian with all the hanging wires things. With his rhinitis and waist & neck pain, fans wish him to get some proper rest and treatment before joining any new crew. His cfans even said it's okay to play a small role but a challenging one in a good quality project. But his company keep pushing him to take another similar project continuously. Since 2021 until now, he barely have a month for rest. In his rest time between filming one drama to another, there will be many of brand activities. His fans demands are reasonable since these are basic things every artist should have. It's all for Zhang Linghe. Fans hope agency will wisely shape his career as an actor instead of being a cashcow with crazy schedule.
Now another point while many said Zhang Linghe himself accepted the project then why fans still having problem with it:
Anyone who follows Zhang Linghe for a long time should know he has said many times that he wants to challenge himself with different roles (villain, police, special forces, etc.). Those who are aware about C-Ent industry's culture they should know not everytime it is in artists control to choose project as per their wish and Zhang Linghe has given this hint multiple times in his various interviews. So not every project he choosed to accept, sometimes he is forced too.
There's no such thing as he lose some fans because he accept Chasing Jade. His Supertopic about to reach 2 millions members and his followers on various platforms are still increasing day by day without him having any project being aired now. Cfans only throw their anger and disappointment to Startimes and studio and NEVER to Zhang Linghe.
Many people here admire his acting as Pei Wenxuan also his visual as PWX. TMI, if his Cfans didn't complain, we might have Pei Wenxuan having bangs (similar to SRH, many disliked that hairstyle) ugly sideburn and weird placement of hair-crown for his hairstyle. Thanks to his cfans who bravely complained when his first look was leaked so we got the Pei Wenxuan with hairstyle as in the drama and there are many as such things where we enjoyed things because his Cfans being "overreacted"😉
Fans wish for the time to come when they can see Zhang Linghe being treated fairly and get the proper treatment without fans need to fight for it or maybe the day when he will leave this trashy agency who only treat him as cashcow.
This situation can happen in any fandom as I also see these days several fandoms made such demands to their idols studio or agency. But one thing I never understand is whenever it’s Zhang Linghe fans who made such demands, they will always be labelled as toxic, misogynist, etc. This fandom is the most peaceful one I've ever seen until several mistreatment and insult towards Zhang Linghe happened. They are being forced by his agency and other fandoms doings to finally chose to speak up loudly.
Hopefully, after this explanation, people will be more cautious before speaking bad things about Zhang Linghe’s fans. It's easy to point your finger on others and label them as toxic because the unfair treatment might haven't been experienced by your idols. Once it happens to yours, you will understand how it feels.
TPR should thank others for its popularity is clearly discrediting their hardwork even before the drama started.
I don't care and won't reply to your opinion about The Double as this is TPR page. No need to keep mentioning that drama here.
Last. Stop defending when its The Double fandom is the first one who start to think so highly about that drama
They can say they looking forward to it without mentioning other dramas too though. And to think that comments has 9 likes proving The Double fandom might also think the same way.
Just demand respect. Is that so hard to do?
you don't hate him as actor but you say all of this is kinda hypocrite. also, all of the name you consider are great is mostly having 10+ years in the industry while zhang linghe is only 4 years and considered as a rockie actor.
also cheng lei? gosh. a friend of mine who is casual watcher said his character in mjty is boring cause he can only be angry all of the time. it's tbh, easy peasy character that only develop one kind of emotion lol
gong ziyu even having more layer, angry, sadness, fear. he has it all.
your critics is kinda subjective eventho you said you don't hate him as an actor as you still watch his varshow.
imo, wxy still don't have the capability to carry the show. even in modern drama with txw, people said how wooden he is.
idk why you insist to compare zlh with wxy after all of this fact.
seems you just hate him so much for getting lead role from your favorite novel.
for me at least he admit he's still lacking and willing to leard & hardworking to make progress in each work. and he's not as cocky as wang xingyue that after being only in low level of popular yet he already create some problem here and there. do you know he even compliment (mocking in disguise) of zhang linghe during mjty airing? wxy suddenly upload that he watch zlh's vlog and commenting on zlh's make up. it's so funny because zlh never do the same thing. while wxy tried to use others popularity to lift his own.
well if you like wang xingyue that much, just wish his behaviour will be fixed before it ruined him. also wish him to leave yu zheng before he becaming more and more like his boss lol
you're right. wang xingyue is coming from huanyu entertainment which holds by yu zheng. yu zheng posted on how the producer of sokp gave wxy yan lin role but he asked for zz role because it's a white moonlight (baiyueguang) character that most of the time steal the attention. yet he failed and all of drama watcher fall in for xie wei instead of his madness.
well, dirty tricks won't get you to the top. only hardwork will.
you questioning whether he has a strong backer or came a wealthy family is kinda not make sense. is there anyone with strong backer got his drama not airing for a year? he has been working hard the past 2 years. nonstop filming dramas including this one. you saying he had his dramas aired because of strong backing or whether he came from a wealthy family, really insulting his hardwork.
also, you said that his manager works so hard for him to get him to where he is now? now I ask you, does your fave get into where she is now by herself? not because resources pushed by yuzheng, her boss?
if you so upset bcs your fave's drama can't air. you might want to ask the producer of this drama who refuted rumour of it going to air asap back on march 2023. and now it's coming true bcs of the 3rd ml's problem.
I should tell you, it's NOT bcs of iqiyi considering zlh's over exposure that this drama isn't being aired. it's BECAUSE of 3rd male lead & the drama team pull themselves into this "can't be aired" mess.
just delete it. or zlh fans will be accuse as the toxic one and the one to attack your fave again. while it's all your side that started it.
zjw was removed from the billing in the latest sokp weibo for iQIYI iJoy Conference last month. they mention wang xingyue then liu xiening. he still in the poster but his portion might be reduced a lot.
he might ended up like wang yueyi's character in LBFAD (due to some saying she's pro 🇯🇵 ) she was still in the drama but not getting in the promotion nor mentioned by LBFAD weibo account
I think it will be hard for zjw as well as he offended goverment with his action last year.
