I did saw this but I read from ckiwis that his name just got used and dragged for hype for that drama (a usual tactic in the chinese ent industry). Tbh, when I saw it, it's seems fake in the first glance. The day when the reliable melon masters started posting about it, will be the day I will pay attention. But I don't mind if other kiwis here likes to eat melons even from unreliable and made up sources, they just need to take it a grain salt.
Imo, it's not. Minghao said it's too early when a kiwi asked if it will be broadcast next month (April). And I…
Ah I stumbled upon this too, the news is said to arrive at the end of March but yeah there's nothing 😂. About this big IP suspense with good director and screeenwriter, I think the kiwi is just joking,it's a wishful thinking and I also hope he can get his hands on a big IP.
Do you think this is true?https://x.com/nus_sep/status/1906194896886853960?t=1a0YpEMNUmWuFLr1q9gWLA&s=19
Imo, it's not. Minghao said it's too early when a kiwi asked if it will be broadcast next month (April). And I don't see any ckiwis acknowledging this info in my timeline atm.
Yuming Tea Bone: Yu Zheng's new drama sparks expectations, Nazha and Hou Minghao perform a legendary love story in ancient costumes Yu Zheng’s new drama "Jade Tea Bones" (also known as "Mingmen Family") officially announced its cast, with Hou Minghao and Nazha joining, which instantly sparked heated discussions across the entire Internet.
Yu Zheng responded domineeringly: "Who says that my dramas only promote women and not men? Aren't both male and female couples popular?" With its unique character settings, complex plot lines and high adaptability of actors, the drama became popular before it was aired and has become one of the most anticipated dramas to be aired.
📌1. Cast and character setting: a combination of subversive personalities and high looks.
Lu Jianglai (Hou Minghao): Born as a top scholar, he became a groom after being involved in a murder case. He has a "green tea, two-faced, scheming" character and is called "the gender-reversed version of Wei Yingluo" by Yu Zheng.
Hou Minghao has accumulated a lot of popularity in recent years with works such as "Back from the Brink" and "Dashing Youth". His costume fighting scenes and his temperament of being both good and evil add a lot of highlights to the role.
Rong Shanbao (Guli Nazha): The daughter of the tea king and head of the family, she is calm, wise, ambitious. Nazha will play Rong Shanbao, who is good at using strategies to control the overall situation.
Nazha’s previous costume looks in “Legend of Nine Tails Fox” and “The Dream Returns” were stunning. This time, challenging the role of a “strong woman” is undoubtedly a major breakthrough in her acting skills, and it also makes the audience full of expectations.
The supporting cast is equally brilliant, with diverse characters interweaving to create complex relationships.
📌2. Plot highlights: dual narrative lines of power struggle and love.
The main plot of "Yu Ming Tea Bones" is clear, with suspenseful detective stories and family intrigues intertwined, and the plot is full of ups and downs.
As a county magistrate, Lu Jianglai repeatedly solved strange cases, but fell from grace due to the old case of a wife's murder. After losing his memory, he was rescued by Rong Shanbao and became a groom.
The two engaged in a battle of wits while pretending to be obedient and taking advantage of each other, and finally joined forces to uncover the truth.
At the same time, undercurrents surge within the Rong family. The event of marrying a son-in-law triggers a scramble among the prominent families in the south of the Yangtze River. Lu Jianglai unexpectedly becomes a chess piece in Shanbao's game. The two gradually develop an emotional bond in the process of reorganizing the family and developing the tea ceremony.
The drama also incorporates innovative elements, such as gender reversal, a female-dominated family system and a "male version of Wei Yingluo" setting that break the traditional routines of costume dramas.
The model of ancient costume + business war, with tea ceremony culture as the background, incorporates business war intrigue and suspense elements, and combines the style of "Knowing Your Destiny"-style house fighting and "Nirvana in Fire"-style battle of wits, allowing the audience to feel the charm of Chinese traditional culture while enjoying the plot.
📌3. Production and market expectations.
After trying short dramas in recent years, Yu Zheng returned to long dramas and placed high hopes on "Yu Ming Cha Gu", declaring it an upgraded version of the "high-quality short drama" model, emphasizing high-cost investment and script polishing.
The series is positioned as a "costume suspense romance" and uses AI technology to generate promotional photos of the leading actors, which has sparked discussion before it was aired. The audience has high expectations for this drama. The CP feeling of the male and female protagonists, the power struggle line and the integration of tea culture have become the focus of heated discussion.
📌At the same time, Hou Minghao's acting skills and appearance are also highly recognized, and netizens are calling for it.📌
The story of "Glory" is unique. It tells the story of Lu Jianglai, the top scholar, who has repeatedly solved strange cases with his extraordinary ability to solve cases after taking office as the magistrate of Chun'an County. However, he fell from the peak of his career to a desperate situation because he was involved in the old case of murdering a wife.
Rong Shanbao, the daughter of the tea king, rescued him. Previously, Lu Jianglai was demoted to a groom by Shanbao because of his power struggle with the Rong family. When the Rong family was recruiting a son-in-law, the prominent families in Jiangnan had their own ulterior motives, and Lu Jianglai accidentally became a pawn in Shanbao's hands. As they got along, the two fought wits and courage, and their feelings for each other grew.
In the end, they joined hands to solve old cases, reorganize the family, and develop the tea ceremony. They got married in the fragrance of tea and wrote a romantic and legendary love story.
📌Highly efficient filming
According to executive producer Chen Wen, the preparation work for the filming of Yu Ming Tea Bones was meticulous and complicated. In the early preparations, the crew traveled to Dongyang, Pan'an, Wuyi, Shengzhou and other places around Hengdian to find suitable tea garden locations. They inspected about eight or nine tea gardens and finally selected several tea gardens with beautiful scenery and in line with the plot settings for filming, just to present the most realistic and beautiful tea garden scenes to the audience and restore the tea country style in the play.
The main scenes of "Yu Ming Tea Bones" were selected from the Ming and Qing Palaces, the Huaxia Cultural Park, and the studio mansion. Among them, the studio set area is as high as more than 8,000 square meters, and the set construction is huge. It took more than three months to carefully build. The studio scenes are expected to account for nearly 50% of the entire play. At present, the crew's shooting cycle is planned to be about 100 days, with more than 500 staff members. It is planned to adopt the mode of simultaneous shooting of groups A and B to improve shooting efficiency and ensure that the series can be completed on schedule with high quality.
It is reported that Mr. Yu Zheng strictly controls the shooting quality of the drama, from the costume and props design and set construction in the early preparation stage, to the control of the shooting progress of the crew in the mid-term, to the later visual effects production and dubbing and other links. He personally does it and keeps a close eye on the whole process, striving to make every detail perfect and present a well-made costume masterpiece to the audience.
I don't know what you were trying to achieve by saying all this yapping nonsense. You clearly don't even know or have any idea on what his status in mainland is lol. No one sees him as an actor??? Living in delulu bubble I see. Yu Zheng, Xu Ji Zhou, Xu Hong Yu casting him because of his past works/audition are shy to see you.
I don't like the bragging other fandoms do to uplift their faves but since you clearly don't have any idea of all this yapping I'll say it to you. His broadcast volume performance is one of the best among the 95s. Most 95s can't even surpass the 20 million views/ ep or even 15 million views/ep. He can press the enter key in the billing position. And aside from Wang Yi Bo (War of Faith) , he's the other one in the 95 gen that can supress a 90 post generation actress.
Edit: It was clarified to me by another kiwi that this is a misunderstanding because of language barrier. I myself have something further to say but I will stop here and not dwelve in this issue furthermore.
