Cheng Yi’s Next Period Drama Fu Shan Hai May Get Rising Young Actress Liu Meng Rui as Female Lead

So there are reunions, and then a three-union already for these two is pretty lol. Cheng Yi has accepted his next drama titled Fu Shan Hai as a top billed male lead in a guy centric wuxia period piece that will start filming soon. This week word on the street is that the female lead may be a pretty unknown and very young rising actress Liu Meng Rui. She’s only 20 years ago and funnily enough has worked with Cheng Yi twice already, once in Love and Redemption and more recently in Mysterious Lotus Casebook. Once I saw that I immediately suspected she was in the same agency and a quick Google search confirmed it, she’s part of Huanrui Entertainment the same agency as Cheng Yi. Guess this is an agency drama then so I expect more Huanrui folks tossed in.

  • Reminds me a bit of Tavia Yeung and Charmaine Sheh - visually, not a great fit outside of modern dramas

  • It is a Huanrui drama. His fans are playing dumb saying it isn't but the production Straw Bear Film is theirs.

    • I think its both a Straw Bear drama and a Huanrui drama. Its just that Huanrui is producing it under their subsidiary company - Ye Hua Picture.

    • Strawbear is a production company owned by Wu Qilong who is Liu Shishi’s husband LMAO 😭 Y’all gotta look up who and what Strawbear is before lying on here. Last time y’all said Stellar Pictures was owned by HR and now Strawbear is owned by HR 😂 Google search is useful sometimes.

    • So what, still a duo platform S+ drama thats announced at the same time 5:20 🥴 520>我爱你 only you haters trying to empathize the HR part

      • Cheng Yi fans emphasised the Huanrui part.

        In fact you screamed all over Weibo how it's an awful drama, it's terrible that it's a Huanrui production and the worst possible choice when you thought Cheng Yi wasn't in it. Now that it turns out that he is, it's suddenly an amazing drama. You are ridiculous and you exposed yourself.

  • I found her acting rather stiff, and somehow she is dislikeable in several dramas I’ve seen.

    If she really is the main lead, it will be unfortunate for the drama that corporate interests win on this.

  • Its rumored between her and Chen Yuqi but I'll honestly prefer Chen Yuqi. Both are wooden in acting but at least Chen Yuqi looks more beautiful, and was good in her role as Zhao Min. This actress, on the other hand, was dislikable in MLC.

  • Peng Xiao ran is in the same agency as Cheng yi. Would love to see those two pair up in the future.

    • Oh I did not know they were in the same agency. They would look pretty good visually. I like that Cheng Yi is headlining and dont mind a rookie but a different rookie would be preferred

  • I thought they had a few cute beats in a young uncle who understands/supports his impertinent niece sort of way in MLC. Would feel weird about them being a romantic pairing. She was more paired with Zeng Shun-xi's who was the son of Cheng Yi's character's older-brother-like friend.

  • You people need to get yourself checked. Why would huanrui need to hide behind other agencies? why wouldn't they announce themselves as the production company of the drama? MLC is from Huanrui, I don't see anybody hiding that fact. And you're also the same person that said fsmm is also from hunarui🤣 So what? Are all the production companies in the world owned by huanrui now?🤣

  • Mouse-boy gets an equally mousy looking FL. I guess it’s what they call a good fit 🤣

    • Yo, which salty fandom did you come from, if you focus on your own idol maybe he'll be more successful

  • I saw this girl pop up in many other shows I guess she really has strong resources, I notice on this site everyone having problems with every single actor/actress's look, I wonder who actually considers pretty here in Koalasplay

    • Xiao Zhan (he's like a God on this site)...others are peasants, therefore insignificant hahahahahaha *rolleyes*

    • So im not the only one who notice. That explained the person above calling mouse boy. A xz fan

      • Cheng Yi fans are so obsessed with Xiao Zhan that it is sad.

        Look, it's not Xiao Zhan's fault that no matter how much water he buys or how many words he mispronounces, Cheng Yi still can't get a decent drama offer. Focus more on your fave than others, his career may not end up a dead end.

      • @Smh Who is obsessed with who exactly?
        That's rich coming from a fandom who can't help but harass/mock other fandoms and artists. A fandom who can't even let go of a feud that started in 2019 ('The Untamed' aired in 2019, it's time to move on, don't you think?)
        We're not the ones who're barging onto other topics/articles unrelated to their fav just to bash/troll/taunt or be off topic (talking about your nemesis in an article unrelated to him is disrespectful and uncalled for)

        I don't care about Xiao Zhan (I even pity him for having to deal with such a toxic fandom) but I'm fed up with your fandom arrogance and nonsense (and I'm not the only one) so that's why you need to be call out on your problematic behaviour.

        Cheng Yi can't get a decent drama offer?!? lol Still can't get over the fact 'Mysterious Lotus Casebook' was hotter last year than the soporific 'The Longest Promise'? I see. Cope
        His new project is an S+ drama adapted from a very good and popular novel. I'm very happy with his casting. You do not need to worry about us. Thanks for your concern *rolleyes*

        XZ fandom love to think their idol's career is moving to greater heights but he's still doing idol dramas(he's only one year younger than CY) and is not much invited to international festivals from what I know (I'm waiting for him to come at Cannes Festival and not as a model)

        I'm not even a Wang Yibo fan (I really don't care about the guy and watched none of his works) but fact is that his projects seem more diversified and he was even nominated for a prestigious award (Golden Rooster)+ worked alongside freaking Tony Leung (an actor globally known and this, even if you don't follow Asian entertainment)
        Jealous much?

        'Focus more on your fav than others'? hahaha That's the pot calling the kettle black.
        I advise you to take your own advice first because I'm not the one who looks desperate and feels threatened here.

      • @Panda eyes

        Aww, a Cheng Yi fan playing victim. You brought in XZ here, now deal with it.

        Yibo's "diversified" projects stopped exactly a year ago because he hasn't filmed a single thing since. I wonder why.

        Youth Memories is not an idol drama, "only" a big hit CCTV period drama. Neither is Legend of Zanghai. Remember that one? The one Cheng Yi so desperately wanted? So much so he bought the hell out of hot searches and them embarrassed himself in front of Zheng Xiaolong in person by not even being able to speak Mandarin. Funny how that worked out and the ML went to Xiao Zhan. His extensive theatre experience helped there, not that Cheng Yi can relate, considering he can't even speak properly.

        Do you perhaps think Legend of the Condor Heroes is an idol drama? Or the following war movie could be so in your delusional head. And guess what, all these projects are his, without anyone carrying them for him. Kong Sheng next.

        Enjoy yet another costume drama for a 35yo produced by his own company. It's extra ironic that you, a fan of someone stuck in idol costumes is talking about diversity to a fan of someone who did Xianxia, modern life, period drama, martial arts, historical and next war genre. That is diversity.

        Oh and btw, Xiao Zhan fans dgaf about Cheng Yi. Keep XZ out of your mouth and you would never see a XZ fan again.
