“Let’s welcome the Hou Minghao who’s here to take an exam~”
Smc: “I saw many of your music fans sending you off to the ‘exam.’ You’re about to face your first exam question. Are you prepared?” 🐱: “I am.”
Q: “After every singer’s live performance, there will be live, professional critique. Would you fear to face sharp, objective critique?” 🐱: “I don’t think I will. Because having chosen to come on this stage, I feel I should be braver, more courageous and accept all words, regardless if they are praise or criticisms.”
Q: “A hot search once said you came to interview (‘sound test’) before. Can you tell us why you decided to participate in Singer 2026?” 🐱: “I actually decided to do the interview on my own. I want to test to see if I’m truly a qualified singer. I also really want to come to this show and learn from senior singers and give myself more confidence music-wise. I also hope to learn from everyone’s experience.” (Chyi Yu says he’s too humble)
Smc: “When Bichen was here last week, she said you’re an awesome singer in her heart, ranked number 1.” 🐱: “No no no no no no no, no no no no no no no! I don’t deserve such praise.” Smc: “Really, she said you sing VERY well. Trying all kinds of ways to recommend and introduce you to us!”
Smc: “You’re about to go on stage this Friday. Are you nervous?” 🐱: “It’d be a lie if I said I wasn’t nervous, I am a bit. But I will try to immerse myself in the music as much as possible, immerse myself in enjoying this show.”
Smc: “What kind of flag (goal) do you want to put up for Friday? Have you thought of that?” 🐱: “It’s written. I hope to make it through this episode.” Smc: “Just this episode?! You’re Bichen’s number 1!” 🐱: “Whoa. Why did she have to say that! Giving me such great pressure. I didn’t have pressure before.” Smc: “I think you can do it. Let’s make it through multiple episodes, okay?” 🐱: “Okay. Jiayou, jiayou, jiayou.”

The studio just posted the Nanjing concert vlog, and I'm telling y'all, he really shouldn't be filming a drama in the middle of his concert tour. I'm genuinely worried about him. You can clearly see from the vlog how physically demanding and intense the concert preparations are. 😥
Recently, our company has noticed a large number of malicious speculations, false information, and insulting remarks targeting Mr. Hou Minghao on some online platforms, even deliberately creating antagonism and inciting false topics such as "fighting for top billing," which has seriously infringed upon Mr. Hou Minghao's legitimate rights and interests. In response, the studio hereby declares the following:
1. Regarding the recent online rumors about Mr. Hou Minghao's "fight for top billing" and "tearing apart" of top billing, as well as malicious attacks, defamation, and personal attacks, we have secured evidence. We urge the relevant publishers to immediately delete the infringing content and cease all inflammatory and rumor-mongering activities. If they refuse to stop, we will resolutely pursue their legal responsibility according to law.
2. Mr. Hou Minghao has always focused on the performance itself, respected his partners, and adhered to his professional duties. We oppose any form of hype surrounding top billing, will not waste creative energy on issues of authorship, and do not condone creating antagonism and harming the industry ecosystem through such topics.
3. We strictly abide by the spirit of the "Notice on Regulating the Attribution of Actors in TV Dramas (Web Dramas)" jointly issued recently by the China Television Drama Production Industry Association, the China Online Audio-Visual Program Service Association, and the Actors Committee of the China Radio and Television Social Organizations Federation, and resolutely resist chaotic phenomena such as "fighting for top billing" and "tearing apart billing." As industry practitioners, we are willing to work with our colleagues to return to the essence of creation and jointly maintain a clean and healthy industry environment.
Thank you for your attention and support for Mr. Hou Minghao. We believe that truly good works can stand the test of time, and true actors speak through their roles. We will deal seriously with any continued rumors and malicious slander in accordance with the law, and will never tolerate such behavior.
