This is indeed for the best. The ss are becoming unruly the more famous he becomes. I feel so sorry for him. These scary ss might mingle in the crowd of solid kiwis while waiting for him after work. He was just cornered in the plane's lavatory by them when he returned to Hengdian 😫.

IQIYI international

With the current 3.27 billion views/plays for #JiBozai on Douyin, this becomes the third most popular male character of 2025 (behind Han Li and Sang Yan, both from big IPs, which were already popular character tags prior to drama broadcast).

Don’t forget that Ji Bozai was shown to the audience only in October!! What an achievement!! Hard work pays off, #HouMinghao!!

Said this many times, it's like a broken record at this point but PROUD IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT.

Well, this is different as IQIYI international bought the overseas rights for Glory but it is still on Mango TV as the sole platform in mainland.

The World's Number One. Baili Dongjun.

Well, if that 🍉 is true then good thing they didn't reach an agreement. It's awful to be tied to one platform and Youku of all platforms lol 😂. Not that I'm bitter or pissed af with what they've done to LITC but to thrive in their platform, you gonna mainly need to bring your own traffic to counter their lowest daily active users count ohmy 🤦.

Glory is the main priority at least in mainland because iykyk.

Well, new 🍉 said that it will be in early January. Yes, because of xianxia's repetitive storyline, the mainland audience are tired af with the genre 😵‍💫.

I am not lying to say that this left a bad taste on my mouth the first time I've heard of it. Usually, platforms pulling this stunt are not optimistic to the drama 🚶. The last time iQIYI have done this was with the drama AMBF. And it's extremely rare for the og platform to get a miss and misjudged their decisions to sell the drama to another platform.

But it could be, Youku's love and hate toxic relationship to Minghao lmao 😂. Kiwis have already expressed their byes to Youku and Youku be like: we are not done!!!!!

if it's really sold to Youku then nothing could be done

not good for heat index, a major traffic diversion

Need to wait for official announcement but 🍉 The Unclouded Soul is distributed to Youku China with iQIYI.

Edit: A reliable 🍉 owner has spoken. Still take this with a grain of 🧂.

His new endorsement

iQIYI Scream Night popularity stats are out (bigger the text, greater the popularity). #HouMinghao was the most popular male celebrity on short-video platforms! Kiwis even made it on the chart, although due to a misspelling they appear as two small texts in the figure 😆 Go kiwis!! 🥝

Heavy on that first sentence! The replacement thing made me revisit bitter emotions 😭.

Hesong's usual tactic, they wanna promote their other artists but it comes off as rubbing the wrong way to us kiwis for the way they are treating Minghao 🚶.

Idk why HS and the studio did what they did yesterday, made me think for a while that there's no contract renewal but maybe they are just this perfunctory to him as they want to prioritize the other 2 who attended🧍 or whatever idk anymore 🚶🚶🚶.

LBB even brought him to that Dior event, it really makes a difference if you are favored.
