the last immortal keeps - 40/50% of the boôk. The main background is more or less intact . Yuan Qi’s role was diminished. However MM changed the background and story entirely fundamentally

MM just took some characters in ALP and TLI (names and some characteristics) as inspiration and marketing purposes then made a drama with its own story

who validates those baidu or weibo users? are they trustworthy? the physical book was not published yet at least by last week. Lol

Unless she turned everything and erased her work on Bai Shuo since 2019, those 82 chapters that I read were all linked to the other two novel. Don't state such firmly if you do not read it yourself

have you ever read the novel about Bai Shuo? It only contains 82 chapters so far written by Ting Ling before she sold the copyright. The original story of Bai Shuo on paper is indeed sequel of Shang Gu which was adapted to ALP. BTW I heard there is kind of radio record for complete novel on youtube now. Heard that many fans of the novel was not happy with the poorly written ending that Ting Ling wrote.

No, iQiyi doesn't promote ALP. However, because Shang Gu is well known IP and the legacy of Ting Ling's trilogy novels, there are many fans for original work out there. What Iqiyi obtained via buying Ting Ling's copyright is the legacy, the fan and inspiration for a kind of brand new drama. There are also some ALP's fans who were unrest with Tianqi & Yuemi's ending and looked foward to their final resolution in MM when they heard about the news iqiyi would adapt the third novel in the end of 2023. This turns out to be disappointment for those fan

some posts about that are here https://mydramalist.com/discussions/zhu-yue/134036-queries-related-to-the-novel-and-alp?pid=3225046&page=2#p3225046

who are 4 Dan actresses according to your information source?

then you should do some research on those 4 Dan’s achievement

The ironic aspect is on one hand they wanted to make it as a standalone drama, on the other hand, they still keep hope for fan of the trilogy novels by keeping the same name of many characters. for more example, they probably can't use the name Tianqi then they adopted the name Jing Yuan which was used by Tianqi too. There are a lot of audience reserved and expected this drama because of the trilogy novels or "related" prequel dramas. This sounds silly but there are many people who watched TLI first and then searched for ALP althought producers of TLI also tried to make it as a stanalone. However TLI shares more connection with ALP than the current MM

early expection (from fan of original work and other "related work", fan of Bai Lu and other actors, neutral viewers). besides there is competition from pther drama. after 3-4 days, heat index and viewship got level off. The plot was not so novel, CGI is so so. There is no explosive or controversal moments or scenes (in chinese it is call "out of circle scences) to debate /mass-discuss to drive the heat index thus attract more viewship

nope, the view quite match with the heat index. For you it might be an explosion but for others not. Just up to the certain level. iQiyi has no reason to hammer Bai Lu - their ambassador's drama

A country mile. Fundamentally changed. Just keeps a few events mentioned in the book

It seems unlikely to me. I haven't heard any news about XK did any extra dubbing record. I think he will use his original voice there. And it will take time for license approval. Then planning.

Xu Kai mentioned his experience of playing fire investigator in the interview. that fire investigator drama might be broadcast earliest among his unreleased dramas
