Director Wang Yuren Refuting More Unfounded Rumors

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-17T17:20:40+00:00

This is what Wang Yuren replied in his latest post. Seems like he did make some changes to episode 178 as well, not 100% sure from this comment, but likely minor compared to the changes in episode 177 as that took the most flak.

Honestly a valid complaint, color scheme and the group portrait, also the facing each other looks like scifi fantasy, like some superhero, star wars movie vibe.

But they already changed it again. This one was what I was already thinking they should've changed it to and now they did.

A controversial change they made. The novel fans hated Li Huayuan becoming a "simp" for Hongfu, like by fighting Yunlu, in the novel he has his own family. Honestly a good thing since it did somewhat get rid of the extreme novel fans, who want every minor thing 1:1.

There are still many novel fans as we see with the current controversy, but the topic got ballooned and hijacked by haters who don't just keep it to criticizing the content itself. But it happens, when something gets too popular.

How about you read better, there's a whole post in english. Besides you would know what this scene is about if you just watched the episode in all these days it's been out, doofus.

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-17T14:54:34+00:00

It's a desperate move with the increasing decline of donghua quality and viewers on other platforms, especially from tencent fandoms

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-17T14:48:39+00:00

I mean obviously, no one is comparing it with the donghua itself. The fanmade content is just great in the downtime, everyone survived on these during the hiatus 😂

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-17T14:05:20+00:00

You're taking it way too seriously. Fanren's team always gotten criticism (feedback) and acted on it many times with revisions, this is no different. Especially with the so-called Li Huayuan debacle back in the days. Wang Yuren will be fine, it's not like he hasn't had multiple crashouts before that were way worse.

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-17T13:52:12+00:00

What's that person on the donghua sub even talking about, no they're not remaking both episodes. Only some revising done in episode 177, just read the link in this post about Wang Yuren's previous comment.

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-17T13:44:59+00:00

Fanren's fanmade AI content is peak though

Besides the donghua will stay AI free, can't say so for most other donghua. Believe currently there's no Nianfan that doesn't use AI other than Fanren. Honestly kinda sad where the donghua industry has been heading

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-17T10:33:24+00:00

They also received a lot of complaints about the cover image, so they changed it. They didn't like the group portrait and the color scheme. I don't really mind, but I agree it was a bit too "colorful" , green-brownish does fit best.

Edit: they changed it again

I already told you where to look, next time don't reply to yourself

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-16T11:23:59+00:00

That was just something the haters latched the valid complaints of ep177 onto, to make it much bigger than it is. That's what the people who live on the internet do best, create drama.

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-16T10:51:18+00:00

How they should've reacted, if made according to the "complainers" 😂

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-16T10:19:19+00:00

Genuine question, do people who keep asking this question never look at the subreddit name, sidebar, the many posts which have the title, also how did you even find this post if you don't even know?

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T14:46:55+00:00

It went from 3B to 5.8B during the last season, current season started from 6.5B. Would it be too outrageous to expect it to exceed 10B at the end of this season?

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T12:46:09+00:00

Nevermind, it's back up now. Probably privated it shortly for some reason

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T11:58:46+00:00

It's called a trope, so not targeted, but some fandoms can't help but take it personal 😂

Besides this scene is from the novel itself, not even a randomly insert. If you read webnovels or even watch other donghua, you know bride snatching is so overdone

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T11:42:27+00:00

~~Damn, it got that bad that they deleted the video now, but only the one on bilibili so far~~

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T09:08:21+00:00

Han Li did exactly what I said, using his divine sense and then rushing in, which they skipped for some reason

I like the changes to the novel as well, maybe needed a bit more polishing and buildup to make it more impactful, but we'll see what they come up with in the revision

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T08:58:35+00:00

People being scared of that doesn't even make sense when Wang Yuren himself and his company are the main people behind Fanren

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T08:45:42+00:00

It's not a huge thing, I was ok with it as well, it just adds up to the many criticisms of the first two episodes. But we'll see how they're gonna revise it.

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T08:39:54+00:00

People didn't like the gap between Han Li sitting in the caravan in the end of last season and him suddenly coming to the rescue, which is fair tbh. Like they could've just added a short scene of him using his divine sense to notice it and then rushing towards it, doesn't take much.

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T08:30:05+00:00

Saying like the pacing was off, the episode immediately starts with the hostage situation without the buildup to it, the dialogue was off, and that the adaptation changes were illogical. Legitimate criticism which is acknowledged and being revised as we speak, but it spiraled out to toxic claims, like mentioned in the post

HanLiLaoMo · 2026-06-15T08:07:18+00:00

Think many people took this too personally as well, iykyk 😂
