Most famous or most favored? You mean him having the most flowers? 🌺 he has many loyal followers- not just because of his versatile acting - loved him in Legend of Yunxi And TBORP- which brought me back to CDrama- but also his all around personality and resilience- he is not only a great actor - from comedy to serious roles - he doesn’t shy away from “ugly “- see his role in the short film “Brother”- what happened to him at the height of his 10 year career was abominable and would have destroyed a lesser human being - but he is strong and filial- he didn’t let that orchestrated event define his life - he was more concerned for those who supported him - if you knew his perseverance (knee injury; 10 year struggle in acting without backing etc) before his presence and career was devastated on social media then you could not help but support him thru his initial depression to him leading the way to carving out a life beyond the confines of his banning by the Chinese social media- he did not slink away - he did nothing wrong - all claims against were fabricated - as supporters we resonate with him- like he says we are on the same frequency- if you read his insightful movie and book reviews; listen to his music; watch him play sports; listen to him reciting poems; watch his documentary you will see his profoundness in thought; in his merchandise you will see his business acumen; in his podcasts you see his playfulness; in his caring for his mother you see his filial piety; he may not be the most handsome or the best actor or singer - but he is someone with strength and tenacity that inspires -
im not sure what happened but "cancel culture" seems to be on another level in China. yet it is also so selective.…
He didn't do anything wrong so he didnt have to learn any lesson - but he did teach ALL OF US how one can persevere in the face of extreme adversity and still forge ahead via a different path to greater success without losing sight of original intentions - his strength, tenacity and bravery to face (still facing) and overcome such blatant falsehoods heaped on him is a testament to his fortitude - he remains an upbeat, kind, nurturing , filial , emotional young man who is thoughtful, talented and intelligent- wish him the best always ❤️❤️
