Just like what I said above, being happy about him getting more fans is an understatement to me 🥹. The ridiculous thing is that big/traffic stars also get fcked over by that industry just in different ways 🥲. That's why safeguarding his rights is a must.
I know right. The production team did this trick to Minghao even though he is the first billing in Dashing Youth. They blurred the ranking but ckiwis tolerated it bc they thought they will follow the contract. That's why they are fierce and sensitive with this one in LITC as they experienced it freshly in Dashing Youth. Many sketchy behind the scenes happens in that industry. Usually the first billing is just used to attract investment and will be used to promote his/her co-stars.
I think Youku did this behind the production team's back.
I want a zoom out version too but I think many are too pissed off to post it. From what I remember only limited amount of people are allowed to control the crowd.

Are you talking about the previous backdrop with the writings or the latest? For the photoshopped one with no writings, there is only one the drama blog posted.
Yes, they will exercise zero tolerance starting now. They will not let any tricks slide. For context on how sketchy it is in that industry, this is what a ckiwi commented on weibo about the mess today:
"That's right, who doesn't want to live a peaceful and beautiful life? But the atmosphere in the domestic entertainment industry is like this. If you don't say anything, you think they will follow the rules if there is a contract, but they will do all the little tricks they should. It's OK that we didn't notice it in the past, but now we know it clearly. Can we still watch our own actors being bullied at ease?"
"Don't think that fans are being unreasonable. Your small actions will give us the impression that you will not give Hou Minghao the treatment that a male lead should have, and will cut his scenes, blur his highlights, and turn him into a puppet male lead like Shao Bai. This can only happen once, not a second time. Hou Minghao's fans' uneasiness and anger are brought to us by Youku, you should give an explanation and stop your small actions."
And to answer your last question, there is filming today. The kiwis are just focused on defending rights and protection that we don't see the hd quality reuters we always have. I barely see any good quality hd vids today. They haven't released it because many are so pissed af rn.
Minghao's fans succeeded and was heard. I posted the update in the latest comment section. They photoshopped the backdrop. And I agree about you with Youku. Is it that hard to follow what was signed in the contract and do messy things like this?!
I think Youku did this behind the production team's back.
The good thing is that they are protective and active more than ever! Back then they just always let it slide but it's different now. They will never let him stepped on again and again this time 🥹🥲.
5 hours to do so, if there any vids probably all will be zoom in only 😅🙄.
At least they got a taste not to mess with him, there are many fans who protects him now. Maybe they made sure the photoshop needs to be flawless that it took 5 hours 😃.
Update: The drama blog photoshopped the back drop and erased all the writings. It's a plain poster now with Minghao's single line row back on the post.
Minghao fans are defending their rights because in that industry if they know that the fans of one of the leads are not making a fuss on whatever they post especially when it comes to position . They can blur the rankings, change the script, and highlights can be stolen etc etc. You have to understand that they need to fight back to prevent him from getting stepped on and waste his efforts.

1. He is alone in the single row
Example:
@XXX
@ZZZ
2. He is in front/ mentioned first with NO BRACKETS such as ranked in no particular order etc or ranked with the first letter of surname etc.
Example:
@XXX @ZZZ = This means the one mentioned first is the first billing, the next is the second billing.
The industry also have a format like this in the same row but with brackets:
Example:
@XXX @ZZZ (ranked in no particular order) - This means that both are equal billing. No first and second billing.
To answer your last question about Fangs of Fortune, yes he is the first billing.

Thanks to the studio. Ckiwis are always requesting for a vlog. This made them calm down.

They provided it in video. The line of people is long and the boot location is has like limited space that it can't fit in a pic? haha
