[An annual event, a regular occurrence.]
The time has come to test how many hidden talents are lurking in each of your group's 208s.
[Everyone who voted for it got a big win... It's hilarious...]
[In the eyes of fans, nothing is immune to being exposed.]
[This was from last year's show. The drama starring Yingjie flopped at rock-bottom ratings on CTS, but Sister Mustard insisted that even a hit on Weibo was a hit. From then on, any drama with better ratings than Yingjie's was considered a hit. If it got popular, it was a hit, no problem.]
[Ahhhhh, this brings back the fear of my group being dominated by Mustard Sister for three months [smile]]
[The first place is actually Hu Ji's Biography? Aunt Tao Xiang is still got it!]
[Dramas about family feuds have a large following and are always effective at attracting new viewers. No dramas about family feuds produced by Aunt Xiang have flopped so far.]
In recent years, the only domestic drama or palace intrigue series that can rival "Grandma Xiang" is probably "The Tale of Yun Qing."
[Aunt Xiang also follows Yun Qingji and even posted on Weibo, saying that one should have a son like Emperor Pingzhao.]
[Aunt Xiang's characters in dramas have never had a good relationship with their children, so it's normal for her to want a smart child...]
[A hellish joke.]
I can understand casting Hu Ji's Biography, but why is "Double" ranked second? I've never even heard of such a drama. A quick search revealed the two main actors are both obscure.
[The person upstairs clearly doesn't frequent my group; "Double" is a BL adaptation...]
[Can BL dramas be broadcast on satellite TV now???]
[Online streaming.]
[BL (Boys' Love) adaptations generate a lot of buzz and have a high fan conversion rate, so even if it's streamed online, its popularity won't be low. An average of ten million views per episode can generate an average of one hundred million discussions per episode. From a long-tail perspective, that's considered a hit.]
[Isn't "The White-Haired Xiangjun" Luan Qing's show that's been shelved for five years? TV dramas basically become outdated after three years; who has that much faith in my work?]
[It wasn't me who threw it; all my throws were no-goes, thank you.]
[It wasn't me who voted, I voted for our small but beautiful low-budget crime drama "Silent Goat Milk 2," thank you. Don't let the nonsensical title fool you, it's actually very good [crying emoji]. Sisters, you should give it a try [crying emoji]]
There are quite a few Bird Sisters lurking in our group, more than the obscure ones.
[Hu Jie only gave Tianban a little over a thousand votes? Looks like the lingering influence of my decision to make Ye Zheng the second lead is still going strong [laughing]]
Why are there so few people casting for Tianban? I watched the trailer, and it looks pretty interesting...
What trailer? Download it and check it out.
[Link] 4K 60FPS | First Teaser Trailer for "Half a Day"! — "Rain Disappears in the Water" — June 15, 2018.
[Finished reading it. Such an affected style...it has a kind of pretentious, artsy vibe. Anyone get it?]
[+1 This doesn't seem to have anything to do with espionage; it's more like a scenic PowerPoint presentation.]
[No wonder Hu Jie didn't vote for Tianban; I didn't even see the ghost I deleted in the first trailer... He's the male lead, after all.]
Who are those two people speaking at the end of the credits? I recognized one of them as Ye Zheng, but who is the other? Qi Ming?
[No. I checked out Ye Zheng's fans, and one big fan used software to alter their voiceprint; both voices sounded like Ye Zheng's. One sounded younger, the other older; it was probably some kind of montage-style, cross-time dialogue.]
[The hydraulic system said that both feet were Ye Zheng's, and the shoe size was the same... That's hilarious.]
[Old Ye has been well-trained by Xu Hanwen; he's even learned how to change his voice.]
Judging from the quality of this trailer, I feel Tianban shouldn't have received this many votes...
[I agree. The quality is really high; I've never seen a trailer like this before, it's quite refreshing.]
[What's so new about this trailer? Doesn't it remind you of Xu Hanwen's usual melodramatic style? "The Legend of Qingyun" was in the same style, and look at how badly it ended up with a bloodbath!]
[Just a casual observer, but I feel like the trailer for "Tianban" doesn't look like "Qingyun Biography" at all...]
[Upstairs, could you please hide the works you rated on the homepage? Are you afraid others won't see you gave "Yun Qing Ji" and "Ya Po" five stars? Hydraulic engineering, if you come here again to cover for your genuine work, you'll get another three thousand hits from Tiger Sister in this steaming plaza [delicious]]
[...Are you serious, upstairs? "Yun Qing Ji" has a rating of 8.6 with 580,000 ratings, and "The Mute Woman" has a rating of 8.4 with 220,000 ratings. If you randomly pick a few people from your group, can you guarantee there aren't any who gave these two films five stars? Don't be so hateful.]
[Sorry, my grandma is just so amazing, two of her works are at a level that some lousy actors can never reach in their entire lives, I'm so sorry for making the person upstairs so upset [laughing and crying]]
[I told you your group would get into trouble if you didn't ban streaking... Hydraulics and Sister Hu are going to start fighting again...]
[It'll be even more lively if Bird Sister joins in; it's like human brains are being used to fight dog brains [laughing and crying emoji]]
I really can't stand some people who spout nonsense without thinking. If you don't know, please don't talk nonsense.
The phrase "rain disappears into water" comes from the long lyric poem "A Man in a Photograph, June 19" by the Western poet Bogdkavis. The original text reads: "They cross endless bridges, like rain disappearing into water / The rain never changes color / They still run / Where they just ran / Time is intercepted / Bullets pause their flight / Passing by, too eternal."
Bojicavis's homeland was a small country that was invaded by rebels during World War II. The people of Bojicavis's hometown organized a heroic and valiant resistance against the invasion, a struggle that lasted for twenty years. The war between his compatriots and the invaders spanned Bojicavis's entire youth and middle age.
Bojikavis was once a baker who provided bread to his compatriots fighting against invasion on the battlefield. One June, Bojikavis was pushing a cart full of bread to deliver lunch to the soldiers fighting on the Karlov Bridge when the enemy launched an attack. The soldiers went to the front lines without even having time to eat their bread. A reporter who happened to be passing by captured this scene on camera.
The battle was extremely fierce. The Bojika people, at the cost of total annihilation, bought half a day's time, allowing those supporting the anti-aggression war to evacuate. But the bread from Bojika was never delivered.
The reporter later gave the photograph to Bojika. Because the soldiers were moving too fast, the photo didn't capture a clear face or shadow of any of them. It was raining that day, and the reporter only managed to photograph a puddle on the ground and many blurry, indistinct figures. Inspired by this, Bojika wrote this long poem, praising the heroic and fearless spirit of her homeland's people in resisting aggression. This is also the longest poem she ever wrote.
In an interview in his later years, Poggicavis once said: "I remember the fine white rain falling on the black bread, and the bread did not change color; and their shadows disappeared on the bridge, just as the rain disappeared into the water."
