00:00Hello Dramamaniacs, I'm Eli and I welcome you once again to The Ark of Dramas.
00:06In today's video I'll talk about news from the world of Chinese cinema and dramas, and some gossip.
00:12So let's get to it.
00:15We begin today's video by talking about Sniper Butterfly,
00:18also known in Spanish as Mariposa Francotiradora or La Mariposa en su Mira, depending on the platform.
00:24As I mentioned the other day, the drama has exceeded all expectations and will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the best Chinese romance dramas.
00:36in which there is a relationship between an older woman and a younger man who has been more successful.
00:43Screenwriter Sui Tien has acknowledged that Sniper Butterfly may revolve around the age difference between its protagonists.
00:51But they didn't want the drama to revolve solely around that.
00:56Instead, they reframed the central conflict as a clash of imbalance, emotional maturity, and power.
01:05Liu, played by Zhou Kei Yu, loves with all his heart and sees Shen Yin, played by Michelle Chen, as his entire world.
01:13His extreme choices, even going so far as to give up the opportunity to study abroad, are all efforts he makes towards that love.
01:23Shen Yin, on the other hand, carries the burden of high self-esteem, a failed marriage, and moral pressure, so she carries guilt and doubts with her.
01:34Therefore, the creative team decided to add a separation to the drama, allowing the two characters to grow independently.
01:43A period of six years of complete separation and no contact whatsoever, after which Liu returns as a successful professional and reunites with Shen Yin as equals.
01:55It's a plot point that has broken the hearts of many fans of the series, but Sui Tian quickly addressed the criticism, saying that if they felt hurt, they should take it out on the writers, not Michelle Chen or Zhou Kei Yu.
02:11Putting that aside, both the writers and the entire drama team are receiving a lot of praise for their work.
02:18We continue talking about Zhao Luzhu, because the actress is on the cover of the December issue of Shang Chen Xi magazine, for which she has done a photo shoot.
02:31Let's take a look below at the photos and videos revealed by the magazine, as well as several behind-the-scenes images.

12:03and posted a series of wedding photos along with the message announcing her marriage.
12:09Dino Lee revealed that they got married on December 17th of this year and that they intend to grow old together.
12:17Dino Lee and Su Jung Le revealed that they were dating earlier this year.
12:23Apparently, the two began to develop a close relationship after collaborating on a play.
12:29Su Jung Le was previously married to actor George Chang,
12:33from whom she divorced after six years of marriage at the end of 2023 due to their differences about having children.
12:42With the recent announcement of their wedding, many Chinese netizens have congratulated the couple.
12:47for having found that special person in each other.
12:51Congratulations to the couple. Let's see the rest of the photos below.
12:55We continue to talk about Luo Yunxi because her participation in Yang Su TV's New Year's Eve concert has been confirmed.
13:19The concert will be broadcast via Yang Su TV and AI Global Lifestream on December 31.
13:28We continue talking about Xiao Yang because his new film, Getsi Town,
13:33It premiered on December 18th in Australia and New Zealand,
13:38December 19th in the United Kingdom and Ireland
13:42and will premiere on December 25 in the United States and Canada.
13:49Thanks for watching the video.
14:19On the other hand, Xiao Yang also appears in a new poster by Philippe Soniker,
14:29brand for which he is a Global Ambassador.
14:32Xu Qi's first film as a director, Gale,
14:36It was quite successful at the Busan International Film Festival,
14:41where the actress and director won the award for best direction.
14:45However, the film has not been very successful in theaters.
14:51After 17 days in cinemas in mainland China,
14:55Gale had only raised 4.57 million yuan.
15:00And after 11 days at the box office in Hong Kong,
15:03The film had grossed 660,000 Hong Kong dollars,
15:07a rather low figure.
15:09Xu Qi has been promoting Gale through various media interviews
15:14and among them is an interview she gave a few weeks ago to Carol Cheng
15:20on his online show Du Show
15:23and in which Xu Qi spoke openly about his fertility problems
15:27and about his complicated childhood.
15:30Since marrying Stephen Fang in 2016,
15:34Xu Qi had always given the impression that they were too busy with their careers
15:38and that they were a self-centered couple
15:42and they never mentioned plans to have children.
15:45But the reality was different.
15:47When Carol asked Xu Qi if they had no plans to have children,
15:51She immediately denied it and said that wasn't the case.
15:56but she had always wanted to be a mother,
15:58But it was something that had never happened before.
16:01After getting married, Xu Qi took a sabbatical year to take care of his health.
16:06Since she preferred to get pregnant naturally,
16:09She refused to freeze her eggs and did not rule out adoption either.
16:13His words prompted many internet users to wish him well.
16:16that her dream of becoming a mother would soon come true.
16:19Regarding her relationship with Stephen,
16:21Xu Qi remarked that they were like two children who had never grown up.
16:25and that their marriage was quite peaceful.
16:28During the interview,
16:29Xu Qi also talked about his childhood experiences
16:33growing up in a violent environment.
16:35Since his family favored boys,
16:38They always beat him up whenever his younger brother got into trouble.
16:42When I was 13 or 14 years old,
16:44His family told him to go to work.
16:47He once had an accident with his scooter
16:49And when his father found out,
16:51He chased her and beat her up.
16:54Xu Qi ran into the street to escape
16:57and in the end she decided to run away from home.
16:59The actress and director described those days away from home as unstable,
17:03But they were happy because they could sleep at night
17:07without having to listen to anyone's screams.
17:09Xu Qi commented that he had to work to earn money to eat
17:12and that she couldn't go to school,
17:15But I had another circle of people.
17:17When asked about those childhood experiences
17:20affected their view of marriage,
17:23Xu Qi said he felt that parents today
17:25They would need a license to be parents.
17:29In the past, the actress and director did not think about marriage.
17:33because it was impossible to know if a couple would last
17:36no matter how much one might want to.
17:38When I was young I didn't believe in the word fidelity,
17:41so I wasn't thinking about marriage,
17:43But nevertheless, she ended up getting married in the end.
17:47We continue talking about Dylan Wang
17:49because the artist has confirmed his participation
17:52at the Hunan TV New Year's Eve concert.
17:55On the other hand, on December 20th
17:58It was Dylan Wang's birthday
18:00who took the opportunity to share with his fans
18:03the photos that we will see below.
18:25And we conclude today's video talking about Wang and Bo
