I am not slandering any platform. I am just stating the fact and not creating a fan war. This year Yang Yang has made 3 dramas while Xiao Zhan has only one. Who is Tencent favorite ? Isn't it obvious. A lot of the VIP subscribers are Xiao Zhan fans. Xu Kai and Allen Ren who are not even a brand ambassador have dramas coming out left and right. Tencent is bigger than Alibaba now but they can not do anything with Hunan/Mango TV. What are they afraid of ?

Tencent just clown all international XFX on Oath of Love. Tencent needs international XFX to continue to be a WeTV paid VIP subscribers to support other artists like Yang Yang, Dilraba, Xu Kai, Allen Ren and so on. I hope Xiao Zhan did not sign an exclusive contract with Tencent.

I don't think that is fair to pick on him because he started out as a singer before becoming an actor. That is a form of discrimination.

There are so many singers turn actors in Southeast Asia ( Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hongkong and China ).

One of the famous actor/singer in Hongkong is Andy Lau.
In Taiwan, you have the Fahrenheit group, Shaw Luo, Rainie Yang, F4 ( Jerry Yan, Vic Zhou, Vanness ,Ken Wu) and so on.
In China, you have Luhan, Kris Wu, Victoria Song, Han Geng and so on.
In Japan, you have Yamapi, Takuya Kimora, Jin Akanishi and so on.
Even in US, Lady Gaga did a movie ( A star is Born ). She is well known as a singer/song writers. As for dancer turn actors, you have Yang Yang and Leo Lunxi ( Ballet Dancer ).

I even attended Jackie Chan concert here is US long time ago in Las Vegas. He is not even a good singer. A lot of the actors in US have a band ( for ex. Keanu Reeves and Johnny Depp).

You can not restrict a person talent. Either they have it or they don't have it.

When you say performing arts that cover singer, dancer and actor. Xiao Zhan is a multi-talented individual. When I first watch Untamed last year, I did not even know that he was a singer. I was very impressed by his acting. I think he deserves an award for portraying WWX. I also like his singing voice, very manly and his pronunciation of English in Faded is Wow.

I hope Xiao Zhan will have lots of TV/movie projects , concerts and TV variety shows.

I don't know what you are talking about, too.

I have followed several male actors before ( Yang Yang and Dylan Wang ) and they never have any issues with rumors in regards to TV project. Their TV projects always confirmed after real rumors. They have no fake rumors.

As for Wajijiwa, it reminds me so much of SM ( K pop ). SM treats their artists who terminated their contract early by blocking their appearance in TV shows.

As for Jackie Chan, his movie Vanguard did not do well in the Box Office maybe due to the pandemic or because of bad reviews. He has his share of controversies coming from his son that happen several years ago in China.

I can understand chinese language. I don't know about you.

The Chinese entertainment industries have been using Xiao Zhan to lure investors when promoting new drama because of his oversea popularity. That is why there are so many rumors linking him to up and coming new dramas. Once the investors are on board then they will do a Bait and Switch just like what they did with AT. Xiao Zhan at this stage of his career can pick and choose which drama he wants to participate and who he wants to work with i.e. female lead. He seems to work on dramas that have good story line and quality.

There was a rumor last year that XZ and Dilreba will star in Mirror: Twin Cities but due to what happen to Xiao Zhan last year. It did not pan out. The same author also wrote The Longest Promise and this time she makes sure Xiao Zhan will be the male lead for her next drama which is The Longest Promise. As for Legend of Anle, there was also a rumor of Xiao Zhan as ML since he will be available in August . But the latest news out there is not going to be him.
Anyway, Xiao Zhan is very busy with his schedules. filming his latest drama ( The Longest Promise ), Stage Play ( A dream of a dream ) traveling through different cities in China, doing a lot of commercials and Tencent promise him a movie in exchange for filming The Longest Promise. I hope he takes some time off / vacation since he is working non-stop.

You mean the controversy about someone pretending to be Zhao Lusi and expressing her affection to Xiao Zhan. It was an anti fan pretending to be Zhao Lusi to create rumors. Zhao Lusi is innocent. She is a good actress and her acting is very natural.

With Dilreba may not happen. They tried twice with Mirror of Twin Cities and Legend of Anle. Both pairing did not work out.

Zhao Lusi end up with Jason Koo in OME series. I am hoping Zhao Lusi will be the female lead for DL Season 2 ( rumors). She has big followers. They get along very well during the filming of OME.

With Zhao Lusi in OME, XZ was the Second ML while Bai Lu in Ace Troops is just a guest star. I want to see them as his Female Lead in his next drama.

I like that they change the title to The Longest Promise than Jade Bone Ballad. It is easier to remember. The trailer looks really good even though they have not finish filming yet.

I really want to see Xiao Zhan pair up with Zhao Lusi, Bai Lu, Bambi Zhu or Li Landi in his next drama. There are so many talented young actress in C-drama right now. I think Oath of Love will be release first before Ace troop and The Longest Promise. If you watch the Tencent 10th Anniversary show yesterday, Oath of Love is one of the preview show aside from you are my glory. I wonder what will be his next drama after The Longest Promise finish filming. There is DC season 2 but they did not announce it yesterday if they will start shooting.

I am more worried about intrusion of privacy from all the cast members. We don't want leak videos or gossips or fake rumors.

I know they have 6 VIP brand spokespeople. Yang Yang and Kris Wu drama will all be coming out soon. Their drama were filmed last year (2020). I am just worried about Xiao Zhan drama. Oath of Love was filmed in 2019.

It was like that 2 days ago. Something must have happen. I just heard a rumor that Xiao Zhan got injured while filming Jade Bone Ballad.

I just want to give Tencent a little pressure. He is their brand ambassador/ spokesperson yet his drama has difficulty coming out. It does not make sense.

Well, If I have to wait for another 1.5 years then I will cancel my We TV VIP / Tencent subscription now. I will just sign back after 1.5 years.

I don't know if this is good or bad. There seems to be so many leaks coming out of the drama when it is still being film at this time.

Aria Jin is from Yuehua agency. I heard Yuehua paid 1 million yuan to get her casted in this drama.

I am hoping Xiao Zhan next drama will be a modern drama. To give his hairline a break. Have anyone heard about a drama titled Black Mist. It is a project from TenCent. He also mentioned before that he want to do more movie project.
