In China, the authorities only expose actors if they are found guilty to make an example of them. That's why we have only seen statements about the actors who were found guilty so far, but on the contrary, in cases where he/she was found innocent, the authorities have never made a statement for anyone so far so no matter how many times SZE has been investigated, if she is innocent, they will not say anything. Also, if there was even a 1% chance of her being found guilty, the authorities would never have allowed her to make such a statement in the first place. SHe has said many times that it was the authorities who cleared her and that she had evidence on the matter. Also, the Weibo account of the person who slandered her was banned by the authorities. Those who are still calling her a tax evader are just pure haters who don't want her to come back. Otherwise, they know much better than us international fans what kind of country China is and that no one can say a single word without the permission of the authorities, let alone lie and deceive the public.And for the drama,Every little news even the fake ones about the drama so far has made it a trending topic so many times, which shows us how many people are anticipating its release, so those who want to see it are definitely in the majority.
I personally find the chances of Go to the Mountains and Sea airing in April to be very low. It will have only been 6 months since filming ended in April, and that's definitely not enough time for a wuxia drama. If that happens, they'll have rushed the production. I've never seen a wuxia drama air before 8 months, and I think the earliest possible air date for that is June. As for TPB, I think it's hard for SZE to return to the entertainment industry through any way other than airing her dramas. She hasn't been invited to any events or ceremonies so far, and she can only post her photos on weibo. So I don't think the drama team will have the option to increase their reservation and maximize their profits with an official promotion in advance. Airdrop seems like the only option to me. So postponing it to summer won't provide them any benefit.
I also think the earliest possible release date is April. For now, Tencent seems to be giving airing priority to series that it hasn't been able to release for a long time. First, they released EL, and now TGH is said to be released as soon as it gets a distribution license in March.I know I shouldn't get my hopes up too much, but it seems to me that they may prioritize TPB in April. What good will waiting any longer do Tencent anyway?
I've tried to watch a lot of xianxia lately and I couldn't stand it and left most of them unfinished. I realized that this genre is definitely not for me. Is this drama a typical xianxia? Should I expect a lot of misunderstandings, self-sacrifice, sorrow and tears? Oh I hope this one will be different because the plot really caught my attention and the teaser was really good too.
I hope that's not the case because that means we'll see the drama only at the end of the year or even next year..ðŸ˜
Don't worry, I didn't know that the censorship part was in two stages. That's why I wrote that it was probably sent for the first time. No one said anything like that. But if most people say it's in the second stage, it probably is. Now we just have to wait patiently for the licensing, we are closer than ever to the series' release.
I hope that's not the case because that means we'll see the drama only at the end of the year or even next year..ðŸ˜
No, as far as I know, the review period does not take that long. After successfully going through this process, series usually receive their licenses right away.
I just saw a post on twitter saying tencent has already scheduled dramas that will air in the first half of the year.TPB was also included in the list alongside everlasting longing and the golden hairpin both of which rumored to air one by one.Now rumor for everlasting longing turned out to be true, I hope rumour for TPB will also be true.
I want to ask a question for novel readers ,Is the Fl similar to Meng Zi Yi's character in Blossom? Her character there was the best part of the drama.
Why do Chinese dramas tend to have minimal information regarding their release date?Even though it's clear that…
I totally agree. The poor actress was slandered by an evil person but eventually managed to clear herself. However, despite this, they still don't share anything as if she was guilty of murder. It has become the policy of the Chinese drama industry to kill us out of curiosity by not sharing anything. First they kill us out of curiosity and then they feed us like feeding a hungry dog ​​by saying, "Here's what you want."
After learning that the drama's post-production phase may not be complete, there's something else that started to worry me. This year, more dramas will be released compared to last year.More series airing means fewer suitable timeslots remaining for TPB. I hope Tencent/the drama team has accelerated the process after SZE's statement and can make the drama to be ready to air in that empty slots, otherwise, we'll have to wait even longer.
It says it is under review.It neither passed the censorship nor received a distribution license, I think it has been sent to the board for the first time.
