Long siiiiiiiiigh, how is this even worth fighting over. Period C-drama Flower in Novoland is about to start filming in early November and has unofficially confirmed leads Zhang Jing Yi and Chen Zhe Yuan. This week his fandom started grumbling about billing order saying he should be top billed. Her fandom responded back that she’s a way bigger star with more hits under her belt so she is naturally top billed. His fandom then shot back that it’s not decided so they are merely he should be top billed because her hits drama all come from her male leads doing the heavy lifting. And so on and so forth, it’s basically each fandom trying to showcase why their stan is better than the other. It’s disappointing to see Chen Zhe Yuan’s fandom start it and do this once again as if they haven’t learned the lesson already.

Really childish and worthless for this
You can be last billed but if you are the breakout of the drama - you win still: so it’s the performance not the billing!!
Are we going to believe in this when the drama is not close to be confirmed yet? So far, it's all rumours.
ZZY is a big girl with very powerful people behind her back. If her people do not want this project, they will not take it. It's very simple.
I think there are people paying to do hate campaign on CZY by trying to ruin his reputation beyond repair. No Chinese actor/actress is safe. Everytime you read a negative rumour of a popular actor/actress it's for sure the job of a well paid person who made it up. It's a huge profitable business made by people who earn too well by simply making hate campaigns. It reminds me of sales and marketing people who earn their salaries plus bonus and commission based on performance's results.
That's why being a fan of a Chinese actor/actress equals a person who loves being stupidly stuck in suffering forever besides being ill with fanatism.
Agree with everything you said, however in this case ockoala should be a suspect too. Did a dive through all their posts about him this year and every single one is riddled with lies and defamation. They've been obsessed with ruining his reputation since the billing fiasco in Jan.
Negative gossip becomes confirmed news and if no negative gossip, they make it up.
Truly disgusting
Gossip like his apparent dilraba billing fight that was proven false, or the most recent one they posted about him being in a billing fight with ysx and how he lost the ml role in dual track to Gao, meanwhile there was never anything of the sort mentioned on weibo or literally anywhere else.
Heyu was actually the final ml confirmed not Gao. Just goes to show the kind of lies they spew here and how their readers eat it up as legit news.
She should win this one 💁🏻♀️ lol. But who cares. Just do a good job so we have something decent to watch and you continue getting jobs.
She is a fool for accepting to work with this loser. Smh
I think CZY agency overestimated his popularity but to call him a loser in favor of an actress who got put in all main roles her agency could get despite having no popularity or stats to back her is a choice. The strategy worked and she has a small hit and a fanbase now but let's not forget her roots. Do you guys think she has the ability to get all her movies with her little popularity 🤣🤣?
@Lizzy8
She has a better record of dramas than him by far and her recent hit Blossoms of Adversity was hers, not the MLs. If anything the guy only contributed to people not watching it.
He has one single drama that Zhao Lusi carried and that was enough for him to think he is god's gift to mankind. He continues acting like that because his fans are directed by him.
If she doesn't have fans, he is in the negative. Classic misogyny as always on koala where you d ride your gege's no matter what.
Those fans of either side doesnt even give 2 cents about scripts instead of billing... Thats why there are so many waste writing in Cdramaland...
Both of them are mid and if the drama does badly then that just makes all this fuss for nothing even funnier.
This is not like JJY's case where the contract was already signed, or Dilireba's where she clearly should be top billed. I think both of these actors are at the same level and ZJY isn't a level above CZY where him/his team/fans wanting top billing is outrageous. This fight should be behind the scenes between the production and their teams though, where I'm sure billing order is often negotiated because it is a part of the industry. Teams seem to be really lazy now though and get fans to do a lot of the promotion/fighting etc. so his fans kicking up a fuss may just be what they want to get the project noticed or push him ahead.
Agreed. Both of them are around the same level and haven't sign the contract yet so the billing fight is reasonable this time round.
So top billing is not based on who gets paid the largest for the project? Or is that what they’re fighting over? To be paid big, you have to get the top billing first?
Second billed can be paid more than the first billed
Billing issues are all about elevating an actor's reputation and standing in the industry
Thank you for the clarification. So it’s more of a perception then. Many good pairings can happen if 1st & 2nd billings are not a big deal for a cp centric drama.
@ Smh i dont give a single shit about CZY "Classic Misoginy" and "riding for my geges" 🤣🤣🤣. I just think its funny thinking ZJY is so above him when she has one small hit. Actually equal billing for this is not something ridiculous zjy fans need to humble themselves.
I hope he’ll drop out, not attractive, and mediocre actor. She is much better actress.
