Modern C-drama Lady Liberty with Tang Yan and Mark Chao Reportedly Gets Broadcast Date Retracted as Another Fallout From the Voice Recording Leak From the Blossoms Shanghai Production Meeting
I can’t believe the same voice recording could end up affecting C-actress Tang Yan negatively in two different ways. The leaked voice recording from the C-drama Blossoms Shanghai production crew meeting has had multiple ramifications. For Tang Yan, the first was hearing director Wong Kar Wei criticize her for being fake, publicly cultivating a reputation of hard working and polite and arriving to set on time, but really making the veterans get there before her to wait for her. Now word is that her on deck C-drama Lady Liberty, which had its original Chinese title changed from 独身女人 Single Lady to now called 爱情没有神话 Love is Not a Fairytale, is being delayed. The drama was tentatively scheduled to air soon on Tencent but has now being indefinitely pulled from airing. The reason is that the screenwriter Qin Wen for Lady Lady was also a screenwriter on the team for Blossoms Shanghai and in the voice recording where she boldly claimed she was arrested by cops with a friend but easily used her connections to get them out and even smacked a cop and had no consequences. Oh boy, this is definitely not good and I feel so bad for the cast and crew of Lady Liberty.




Wish more recordings come out in the entertainment industry. So much more juicy news than hearing about fan wars daily.
So the screenwriter is the problem now? I dont enjoy watching Tang Yan’s acting…but I do like Mark Chao. Will check out if/when it get released and see reviews.
You should listen to the recording Koala, it is way more complicated than that and it involves the Shanghai police and possibly some shady agency. The Xinli writer has currently caused at least temporary hold on Xinli projects and it could end up being worse. She is not just a writer but one of shareholders. The other person is from Goose.
This went way past naive into serious consequences territory.
Hi @ehh
Any reason why she wanna release the audio? If she is involved in the project, won’t it affect her as well?
@Rei
She didn’t think it would cause such a problem. It was due to this spat with wkw, because he was shit to her. But the other stuff was way more explosive. In essence she miscalculated big time.
I really don’t know what’s going to happen. I imagine Xinli is doing everything they can to try and make it go away but the Shanghai police already had to make one statement (and it made things worse, not better) so who knows. It’s not a good time for them.
Oh gosh that is pretty bad to boldly say that. Wow it’s not like you can AI the scriptwriter away. Sheesh that sucks. So the scriptwriter gets the consequences but not the director too. His personality seems questionable. I wonder who recorded them and revealed all this will they get consequences too? Seems scary. It’s good that lady gets reprimanded though like come on she sounds crazy. But man I wanted to see the drama and see these actors again. What a bummer.
Popcorn aside, this is just the tip of the iceberg of shady practice and deplorable culture inside C-ent circles. Oh another nepo writer who stupidly exposed herself!!!!! LOL. If she did write BS, then she deserved all the setbacks cuz that plot is bullsh*t.
I was indifferent to Tang Yang though. I am still. When a talentless actress’ youth is gradually fading away, there is nothing left appealing to drama viewers like me. She may as well just retire by now to save her reputation.
