Yang Zi’s Next Project the Tencent C-drama The Way You Come Back Reportedly Inks Male Lead Ou Hao
This is definitely going to be a big prestige aiming C-drama and now the two leads are set so I expect filming to start soon. The Republic era onward era Tencent C-drama The Way You Come Back (玉兰花开君再来 Yu Lan Hua Kai Jun Zai Lai) has found a male lead for earlier confirmed female lead Yang Zi. It will be Ou Hao, who earlier this year had the big hit This Thriving Land opposite Yang Mi. This will be a reunion for Yang Zi and Ou Hao as they embark on a biography tale of Chinese businesswoman Dong Zhu Jun, who opened Shanghai’s famed Jinjiang Sichuan Restaurant which later became the Jinjiang Hotel which is a state hotel that welcomed over 400 foreign heads of state to China after the war. The story starts when she’s sold off to be a prostitute and follows her escape, moving to Japan, divorce, and returning to Shanghai to become a female powerhouse business leader all on her own. Industry insiders are saying this continues Yang Zi’s concerted project choices in serious dramas with strong female leads, with her next two on deck dramas being The Heir (Family Business) and Born to be Alive.




Nice. She’s one of the first of the big 90s born actresses that seems to be taking the Zhao Liying route of pivoting away from just fluffy idol dramas and doing mostly serious ones instead. The rest would be smart to follow suit.
She sure has good resources.
She’s been in the industry since she was a child and has proven to be a pretty good actress and has a massive fanbase. Makes total sense for her to be able to start doing better quality dramas at this point in her career.
Ah so it’s Yang Zi’s turn to be carried. First YM now her. Of course, the water queen will make sure his job is easier.
You cannot seriously compare Yang Mi to Yang Zi. Yang Zi may not be the best actress in the world but she’s decent and Yang Mi is so SO much worse.
I absolutely can. Neither one can act. At least YM is actually pretty while YZ just filters herself into a an unrecognisable face.
YZ has resources out of this world, capital darling, which is the only reason her talentless self is around.
Yang Zi only has those resources because she’s been in the industry so long. It’s not like things are handed to her. Yang Zi and Yang Mi are nowhere near on the same level of acting skill. As I said, it’s not like Yang Zi is the most incredible actress, but she at least can emote. Yang Mi is so botoxed up and also doesn’t seem to care about any character she’s played since 10 Miles. And Yang Mi is almost 40, her looks can’t make up for her lack of skill like it used to.
I love seeing comments like this. Makes me happy to see you being triggered
Im so happy to see Ou Hao is getting more leads alongside known actresses. plus this kind of serious real life story will need more than a flower handsome face in my opinion.
I cant wait to see them together in this. I love their acting esp in emotionally breaking scenes and they will act even better when other party is also good at acting.
Not because other idol actors don’t want to but they may be have limited resources. Yang Zi surely has good resources.
Yang Zi seems to be doing business dramas set in different era lol. The Mo, Flourished Peony and now this have very similar plots. She just needs a modern one next.
I can’t say YZ isn’t a good actress. But like Bai Lu, she is somehow very predictable, bot her visuals and acting, that she is boring to watch. That greatly reduces her appeal to drama fans.
Is Fan Bingbing winning Golden Horse Best Actress award not news? Not a mention at all? Her award is a snicker to C-ent as well as the CCP authority. LOL
She is handling her own career well… I am happy to watch her new dramas.
one thing I like about Yang Mi is that she tried to save Yu Menglong.
She tried at least 3 times to get him into her agency.
His other agency would not let him out. RIP Yu Menglong.
