The clown below blocked me for debunking her "XZ is depressed and not working anymore, no more dramas anymore…
Well, XZ working pretty much constantly definitely doesn't suit certain parties, especially considering he is going from top director to top director. But it's really wild to come here with the good old jobless narrative when the man is working basically non stop. I guess a certain pending announcement is wrecking havoc even here, it certainly is on Chinese sns!

ETA I got blocked too. Guess she is not too happy she doesn't get to spread her anti narrative as she sees fit.

What break?

He is constantly filming and the talk about that is all over social media so maybe you aren't following the right accounts, especially as you do seem to see him in his fashion projects but seem to be missing his work ones. How strange.

He did LOCH, a movie from summer of 2023 to December with Tsui Hark, when he went straight into this project with Zheng Xiaolong that ended in June and is about to start another movie (De Xian Jin Zhi) in a few days with Kong Sheng (and maybe Li Xue). The project after that one is most likely yet another movie. He is working with top people and has top resources these days and in a year his break was about a month. So if you would be so kind, please don't spread misinformation, thank you.

I’m drunk on Xiao Zhan. but I hear that post production for period dramas are very long and we probably won’t…
This one also has some CGI. Youku has it marked for next year right now. Winter vacation is actually the best time for dramas so personally I am hoping it is ready by then and gets that slot.

I thought Xiao Zhan did a drama or film? for Condor Heroes?
He did. He filmed LOCH the movie from summer 2023 to late December, then jumped straight into this for five months and will start another movie in early July probably.

Title Legend of Zang Hai Spoiler
Reservations are a marketing tool and as such, aren't a real indicator of anything because often platforms inflate…
Being broadcast on television is the preferred thing. Before the filming even begins, the production will register the drama as either a TV/web drama or just a web drama. So ZHZ is a TV/web drama meaning that it can be shown on television. Once shown on TV, it has TV ratings and that's the only real, credible measure of success when it comes to dramas.

Ideally it will be CCTV because that's national television and it has the widest reach. Not all dramas get to be on CCTV, some go to smaller satellite channel but ZHZ is by ZXL who is a legendary director so CCTV8, prime time (19.30) should be it.

Ideally though, it would be great if it could be shown on CCTV1 at prime time, that's the biggest channel out of all CCTV channels but it's always difficult because competition is huge. CCTV8 should not be a problem though 🤞

Lol yes that's the name for CCTV 6, they show movies.

Can anyone give me the information about reservation of this drama, last I heard it was 1.1 million reservation…
Reservations are a marketing tool and as such, aren't a real indicator of anything because often platforms inflate those numbers on purpose, especially right before broadcast, to try and create some hype. Don't think too much about it.

i am pretty sure , since legend of heroes is scheduled for this month, 17th, they will be dominated the entire…
Ah yes, a Tsui Hark and Xiao Zhan movie, with a worldwide release, will somehow totally be overshadowed by this web drama so much so that they need to move their schedule accordingly.

The stuff I will read here 😂

How about you go hype your amazing hit on its own page, ah?

How is the lost tomb a parent story if this is supposed to take place so much earlier than the lost tomb which…
It's the parent IP because the character Wang Zanghai is mentioned in it.

The production bought the character copyright, used some things linked to it from the original IP (like tombs) and then created an independent, original story about (just) Zanghai.

Person Xiao Zhan
De Xian Jin Zhi announcement is coming. It's a huge project with some incredible names. The amount of sour people is through the roof, you should see the party we are having in China with the bitter ones 😂

So this is more of the same here.

Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB) is a television broadcasting company based in Hong Kong. Is this what you…
They are talking about the style of filming, that this particular shot reminds them of TVB dramas of the time.

So no Romance???
This is a revenge, male focused drama. There is a small romance line but it's absolutely not the focus of this drama.

Do I need to watch the parent stories "The Lost Tomb" and "Time Raiders" first?
No, no you don't. The production bought copyright to a character and created an independent story in the end. There are some themes from the parent IP but you don't need prior knowledge. It's ok to just watch this.
