Sisters, do you know what's been happening lately? Cheng Yi's new drama 'Sword and Beloved' has been facing some suppression. Local fans tried contacting some Weibo marketing accounts, hoping they could edit and post some good clips from our drama, but they said that many of these social media accounts belong to a large company, and their company has explicitly stated that they are not allowed to promote Cheng Yi's dramas in any way. Even though they think cy’s drama is good ( Last time they promote lotus casebook)
'The Journey of Legend'..." From the very beginning, Cheng Yi's drama was subjected to malicious reports (claiming that the female supporting actress disrespected Chinese people, which was later proven to be defamation; the production team sued ten Weibo accounts spreading rumors, all of which showed they were XZ fans).
However, Xz fans believed we were only blaming others because the drama wasn't doing well. Wow, that is totally unfair.
In May, our drama hadn't even aired yet! But xz fans had began to report the drama already .
Couples Xz’s main fan had already mobilized, organizing and inciting their fans to report Cheng Yi's drama, on the grounds that the female supporting actress disrespected Chinese people. This female supporting actress also had three other dramas, but Xz fans didn't report them.
What was the reason for this?
Who started the bullying?
You smart people can probably figure it out.
XZ fans also claimed that Cheng Yi “stole” more than twenty brand endorsements from XZ. I don’t understand what they mean by “stole.” In China, many brands—especially daily-use brands—operate differently from luxury ones. Luxury brands sometimes rely on an actors’ agency connections, But daily-use brands choose celebrities with strong commercial value and powerful fan purchasing power. Long-term renewals show even more clearly that a celebrity has real influence. So, brands choose Cheng Yi because he has the ability to make them money — not because he “stole” anything.
Now, Cheng Yi's "Sword and Beloved"... We've also encountered a lot of malicious negative reviews. This time, they're doing it more subtly; they're posing as fans of the comic book to complain about the drama, posting tens of thousands of negative reviews on the Chinese Douban app. But when we ask them about the absurd plot points in the comic, they can't answer.
I don't know how long this one-sided bullying will continue.
I agree with an opinion that XZ should have confidence in himself, and his fans shouldn't be afraid of losing his position and doing this.
But the fact that this happened precisely shows that fans don't have confidence in Xz. So why is that?
As someone who supports Cheng Yi, I hope this bullying can end, because competition should be fair, not about gaining success by sabotaging opponents during the competition—that's shameful.
We hope everyone who likes Cheng Yi's dramas can help him voice some righteous opinions. I know rating is a hassle. But if those who like Cheng Yi don't put in the effort, and only the haters are, then the world will only be filled with negative voices. Here are some rating websites; I hope everyone can help to rate!
