Shame on kongxuer and her fanclub for playing victim card now and saying will not allow her fame to be utilised…
The production has always been unfair to txw and zlh using their popularity to promote their second couple. Giving second couple similar scenes as main couple, romanticization of rape for promoting second couple, cutting secenes and romance of main couple. Infact never promoting the main couple. Zlh and txw u deserved the best. Happy that both are getting international awards and the support and boost which the production never gave
Shame on kongxuer and her fanclub for playing victim card now and saying will not allow her fame to be utilised by deng kai when her whole popularity relies on dengkai A Failed "Victim Card" Strategy Netizens are widely mocking the fan club's sudden, dramatic boycott announcement. While her fans tried to frame it as a noble stand against corporate greed, the broader internet saw right through it as a desperate face-saving exit strategy. • Instead of looking like a protective artist, the move made her look like she was running away from a disaster her own team helped create. Netizens are noting the irony: she was perfectly happy to be part of the concert lineup until the numbers showed it was going to flop, at which point she immediately played the victim. By having the official fan club issue an emergency statement declaring they will"not organize, encourage, or support" ticket sales, they effectively shifted the blame away from Kong Xueer's actual market pulling power. • Netizens see right through this, noting that it allows her to look like a principled artist protecting her fans from corporate greed. In reality, it serves as a shield against public humiliation. If the venue jS empty on August 15, her team can comfortably claim, "We boycotted it,"' rather than admitting, "We couldn't sell tickets." For months, fans of Tian Xiwei and Zhang Linghe felt that secondary actors were constantly trying to steal the spotlight, push secondary couple marketing, and diminish the hard work of the main leads. • This concert collapse has served as the ultimate vindication for the lead actors' fandoms. It proved unequivocally that the 3.4 billion views and massive streaming success belonged entirely to Zhang Linghe and Tian Xiwei. Without them to shield the supporting cast, the entire illusion of the second couple's popularity shattered overnight.
Guys there is tea , so during and after poj both zlh and txw were offered few brand collab (huge brand , Bvlgari one amongstthe offered) magazine photoshoot, 2 big shot(one was vogue) magazines wanted zlh and txw collab but owing to txw and zlh dramas releasing soon after poj aired they didn't want all their fans to completely dwell on their cp and affect their future projects so they denied. Also apparently now its a thing that A list actors dont do cp photoshoot if cp becomes widely popular to prevent hate for future projects. This makes me sad. We could hv got so many amazing photoshoots if not for all this.
There is this korean movie 'i saw the devil', it is a revenge story with a passionate romance background, it was remade into ek villian which is an Indian movie. Considering the genre i would love to see zlh and txw in the chinese version of this movie if they ever make it . This is an emotional roller coaster movie and they would serve it
The main couple don't share the so called amazing Chemistry like everybody say, but the 2nd couple ( Deng Kai…
Xz and cy the bestest couple ever and with the most ethreal chemistry. The best kiss in the whole drama is our xz and cy window kiss , even their hands had better chemistry than the 2nd couple. Their bath tub and edited out bed scene could set up a whole forest on fire that hot it was, the main couple slayed it with a single intimacy scene. Nothing beats our main cps beautiful, sweet yet the most hottest chemistry
In prisoner of beauty liu yuning wasocked for not looking good. Personally for me he looked great and in poj zlh is mocked for looking good what all should i see
I dont understand the whole controversy about the foundation general. Its fiction, in the drama xz character requirement includes extremely good looking young man. So what is the whole point. Why is zlh blamed for this, he was just fulfilling his character. I dont even think people who are complaining even knows the plot of the drama and the requirements for his character. Nobody other than zlh could hv nailed xz role this well. Even with less screentime and less impactful scenes he could never be overshadowed by any other male character. He remained #1 from start of the dram to the end of the drama which shows his impact.
Its more like he is being targeted because he is too good looking and according those people good looking people…
But i think in every drama generals are made to look like this only, they need the visual appeal to attract viewers, what about other drama generals, what about other men in poj all hv make up why is only zlh targeted.
I just discovered changyu is supposedly pregnant in the last scenes of episode 40 when she climbs up to take the ribbon from the tree because xz is nervous and is like what are you doing considering cy is a general and has fought powerful men herself why would he get worried over this small thing and he doesnt let her jump, then he carries her and goes. Next scene he is like u r a mother of two.
Its so sweet of txw to have shared zlh pictures on her weibo in her thank you post even when he was caught in a mess . She didn't care whether it would affect her because people usually refrain from posting pics with costars if the costar is caught in a mess. This is a indirect way of her supporting him. This actually shows their friendship
Omo the douyin engagement of xz and cy is insane its like veryyyy huge and the main contributor is their bed scene in episode 38 that was cut. People shared that scene like wildfire increasing the engagement of main cp to a level no other cps has had in cdrama. Considering the fact that main cp didn't have much promotional videos still managed to achieve this milestone speaks volumes about their chemistry Even if that scene is cut everyone has watched it.
The main couple is the only one who still got screen time and had their story resolved. The side stories and political…
This dramas most loved and hit portion is the linan arc, everyone juat enjoyed it. In that arc we saw how th leads romance was properly developing and we even got to see the ruthless marquis side of xz when he was hiding his identity. After the linan arc the story drastically shifted from the main leads. We get their scenes here and there , their love story was so scattered. But their scenes even though less than 5 minutes together captured the audience. But everything else was a mess. The brutal marquis also went missing

P.S not them their agencies denied it
Lol look at what the fans did
Nobody other than zlh could hv nailed xz role this well. Even with less screentime and less impactful scenes he could never be overshadowed by any other male character. He remained #1 from start of the dram to the end of the drama which shows his impact.
And guasha is the national ritual in china, woah influence
Next scene he is like u r a mother of two.
