Just by looking at the screen time allocation, one can see Shi Shan's position in this drama. As the male lead, he only appears a quarter of the way through the story—truly absurd! Numerous key scenes were cut, the scriptwriters ruthlessly stripped him of his essence, even going so far as to call him "the female lead's shadow." What's worse, he has to endure endless online harassment from the lead actor's fans!
The ivy-covered website had no intention of stirring up trouble so soon after the finale of "Tianban." However, since screenwriter Zheng Bohan (@泛舟文海) has already torn away the last veil of pretense in an interview, the ivy-covered website has no intention of maintaining a facade of civility. Here are ten questions; please answer them, @电视剧天半官博 and @泛舟文海!
First, is Shi Shan the male lead in your drama?
Second, did the production team cut out any of Li Ruhui's highlights or other scenes?
Thirdly, I would like to ask @TV Series Tianban Official Weibo and @Fanzhou Wenhai, why is the screen time of the male lead Shi Shan even less than that of the fourth lead Lu Huaizhang? Why is he only 11 minutes longer than the third male lead Di Ting?
Fourth, Shi Shan acted in this play out of courtesy. Do your actions live up to Shi Shan's loyalty and trust?
Fifth, @泛舟文海, in your other works, are there any characters like Li Ruhui who you have wantonly insulted and ignored?
Sixth, @泛舟文海, what do you mean by "Didn't everyone forgive him?" Does it mean that just because Shi Shan has excellent acting skills and good public image, he deserves to suffer your malice and perfunctory attitude?
7. @泛舟文海, you shed tears for Li Yiming's death. Did the death of Li Ruhui touch your heartstrings at all?
8. Whether it's promoting the drama or appearing on variety shows, Shi Shan actively cooperates with the production team; why are there only 43 Weibo posts related to Shi Shan in the official Weibo account of the TV series "Tianban"? That's only one-eighth of the posts of the other lead actor?
9. Does this drama feature any other actors adding or altering scenes, or arbitrarily taking over Li Ruhui's spotlight? Is there any use of Shi Shan's actor reputation and public image to promote a newcomer?
10. As the male lead in "Tianban", Li Ruhui was insulted and ignored by the screenwriter. What is the official Weibo account of "Tianban TV Series" regarding this? Or are they going to turn a blind eye and do nothing?
These ten questions are written in blood and tears. They are the words that every Virginia creeper has poured out of their heart and lungs, roared from their throat!
This character was neither treated well by the screenwriter nor valued by the production team.
This character was born burdened with injustice and mistakes.
This character, who has endured days of criticism and cyberbullying, and has been constantly exploited—
Those who don't love it will discard it like dirt, but in the eyes of those who do, it is a true treasure.
With the professionalism of a seasoned actor, Shi Shan meticulously crafted and interpreted Li Ruhui, showing no negligence despite the scriptwriters' and crew's initial disdain. He nurtured the character of Li Ruhui with love and acting skills, giving him real flesh and blood and a complete life.
As Mr. Zheng Bohan said, Li Yiming did not love Li Ruhui, nor did the screenwriter who brought him to life and death. Even the production team turned a blind eye to the various injustices suffered by the male lead.
However, sincerity begets sincerity, and the ivy will never allow such a sincere, dedicated, and deeply affectionate actor to be treated this way. We believe the vast majority of our viewers will also disagree.
