Japanese G1 continuity is absolutely not normal about girls but damned if they don't give us some of the best ones
There was a significant amount of Transformers continuity released between 1987 and around 2007 that was produced in Japanese and is really only known to most English-speaking fans through fansubs, dubs that were only released in Australia, and the like. Shows like Headmasters, Victory, and Zone. Manga like Victory and 15 Go Go Go Teletraan (which was really mostly Kiss Players). Radio shows like Kiss Players.
I'm gonna be super up front. Japanese G1 is not normal about femmes in any way, shape or form. At the same time, it gave us some of the BEST and most underused female characters in the Transformers universe.
Headmasters, which came out right after the US G1 show ended, is particularly egregious. In Headmasters, Arcee has been reduced to Fort Max's administrative assistant, uses ridiculously polite and subservient language, and is also the only medic. And being a medic would be kind of badass if they let her be as badass as Ratchet, you know? But they absolutely do not.
Also, in Headmasters, Carly (now married to Spike) allows her son--a freaking child, not even a teenager--to go on missions when Spike can't and a human is needed, because uh, for some reason it's better for a 12 year old boy to go, not an adult woman?
But most of the good femmes don't come from Headmasters. And some of the best femmes we have are from Japanese G1.
Super-God Masterforce made it up to us by giving gave us Minerva, a human girl who is a Headmaster with a robot body (transtector) making her basically a bad ass mecha pilot, and who actively does fight.
The Victory manga gives us Esmeral, Deathsaurus' incredibly classy wife, and Lyzack, Leozack's twin sister, who is in charge of defending the homefront but really does want to go out and fight. Illumina appears in both the Victory manga and the anime. She's a little human girl who has a crush on Jan Minakaze and is always trying to get people to choose nonviolence.
(Lyzack later appears in an English-language comic - the Wings Universe--wherein she's basically Deathsaurus' servant and Starscream hits on her. I don't like that.)
There are a number of great femmes who were only ever toys. The Cobalt Sentries set gave us Howlback, leader of the Decepticon military police (called the Cobalt Sentries). She is basically Ravage's twin sister but instead of being super stealthy she can turn your attacks right back on you.
(Later she appears in several English language comics and in at least one she is canonically trans. I'm not a fan of her depiction in the SG Recordicons Batman tribute arc, though.)
The Unite Warriors toyline - Takara's response to Combiner Wars, basically - gave us the combiner Megatronia, made up of Megaempress, and her four guards, Lunaclub (sometimes called Luna Clover or Luna Trefle), Flowspade, Moonheart, and Trickdiamond. They are incredibly awesome.
(IDW 2019 used Trickdiamond, but none of the others. Tricky was one of Swindle's contacts.)
Then there's the elephant in the room that everyone pretends isn't there...Kiss Players.
So, okay. There is nothing normal about Kiss Players whatsoever. On the other hand, I'd rather listen to KP than watch RID2015 which is just blatant copaganda from hell.
Kiss Players had an interesting plot involving little bits of Galvatron and Unicron getting into humans and creating the Kiss Players--humans who could give TFs a powerup by kissing them and then merging with their internals somehow. Then there are the Legions, the dick-tongued monsters that everyone who hasn't actually listend to the show or read the manga thinks are Megatron.
The dick-tongued monsters are gross. It is also gross that some of the Kiss Players are barely teenagers and definitely not adults and are constantly ending up in Situations.
But the plot centres around the apparent rise of Convoy, or Optimus, from the dead, and his transformation into a weird groomery dude, which many people don't understand there was an actual reason for, because it's not Optimus, it's someone else riding around in his body.
Melissa Faireborn is like if you chopped Marissa Faireborn's IQ in half, dyed her hair blond and threw out any pants or skirts that covered her knees. She is nothing like Marissa and I treat them as cousins, but Xiaoxiao Li is amazing and her real lover.
Anyhow, this female scientist (Dr Amaou) lost her mind over the loss of her daughter during the events of the 1986 movie et sequelae, and she's got to be stopped from turning Atari and her Autorooper robot pal into a permanent fusion to reincarnate her daughter Shizuku (whom for some reason I always want to call Setsuna instead).
It's a little confusing because most of the really good parts of the plot got jammed into a few episodes near the end of the season, although once you know what it is, it's clear that it's being set up. That artist just likes borderline lolicon way too much.
The second season of KP is very squeaky clean and sends the girls out to collect what they think are Allspark fragments, and they are very annoyed because Ravage, whom they call "black panther man" keeps getting in their way and fucking with them, only to later find out that the bots who gave them this task are Unicronian heralds and Ravage is trying to stop them from helping Unicron do what Unicron does.
Rosanna, everyone's favourite robot pop idol, comes from the second season of KP, although you don't see very much of her or her companions Glit and Sundor.
Incidentally KP sets up the Unicron Trilogy and some of its characters end up in the UT--which did come to the US, and gave us Alexis Thi Dang.
(This post is brought to you because I just wrote an Esmeral thing and someone was musing separately about Megaempress as a parent and I almost ended up writing this post while reblogging them, because I'm a nerd with a hyperfixation).

from this article by China Daily about Xiao Zhan’s drama WDB. 🤍
Tumblr media
"The integrity, kindness and sense of justice that define Xiao Chunsheng harmonize seamlessly with Xiao Zhan's simplicity and sincerity. Moreover, in terms of appearance, Xiao Zhan's stature and posture perfectly suit the role,"
TV series taps into nostalgia of bygone era and the sense of optimism that captivated China's youth in 30 years.
As winter descends, the frozen Shichahai ice rink becomes a stage for young individuals gliding carefree across its surface. The profound contrast between the frigid ice and the passionate fervor of the young skaters creates a captivating tableau.
The youthfulness of this cohort finds its genesis in Shichahai, where their emotions and destinies will become intricately woven together. Over the next three decades, their fates will undergo a continuous metamorphosis, mirroring the relentless changing of the times.
This is the narrative that unfolds in the domestically produced drama The Youth Memories, a 38-episode television series that was broadcast on both China Central Television and Tencent Video this year.
Directed by Fu Ning and starring Xiao Zhan, Li Qin, Liu Ruilin, Cao Feiran, Zhao Xin and Cui Hang, the drama is set in Beijing in the 1970s and tells the story of a group of young people who grow up, pursue their dreams, and struggle during the early period of reform and opening-up.
This series has captivated attention since its casting and production to its on-air debut. The conscientious craftsmanship of the production team, evident in details like costumes and props, coupled with the dedicated performances of the group of young actors, has resulted in the show achieving both impressive viewership ratings and positive acclaim.
Yang Chenghu, a professor from Beijing Normal University, comments that the series not only provides a snapshot of a bygone era, but also preserves a love story etched deep within the memories of an older generation.
Through its vibrant portrayal of ambitious and dynamic young characters, it gives play to the anthem of youth, conveying profound reflections on the spirit of the times and the essence of life, Yang says.
Zhou Xiaoxiao, chief editor of the drama, says her goal is for the show to resonate with the memories of older generations, while simultaneously helping the younger generation comprehend an era where warmth and challenges coexisted.
"This isn't a documentary series, so it's impractical to comprehensively delve into every historical nuance. Nevertheless, the destinies and fluctuations of the characters undoubtedly stand as the era's most compelling testimony," she says.
"The Youth Memories serves as a poignant bridge in this regard. The personal growth that Xiao Chunsheng and his cohort of young individuals undergo throughout their journey resonates with the evolving times, encapsulating a condensed path of life."
Director Fu Ning has crafted numerous TV series that unfold in the heart of Beijing. Raised in the Beijing hutong, Fu maintained a profound connection to the core narrative and the atmospheric backdrop of the depicted era in this drama.
With a stringent approach, he ensured authenticity in shaping the essence of the story and the period ambiance, striving to present a genuine portrayal of 1970s Beijing through his lens.
Yang Xiaopei, general producer of the TV series, has served as the executive producer for several renowned dramas including Legend of Fuyao, Ancient Love Poetry and Who Rules The World. The Youth Memories marks her debut in the realm of realistic historical dramas.
According to Yang Xiaopei, this drama delves into discussions on themes such as love, friendship, dreams and faith through a youthful lens, with its creative exploration that touches upon every facet of characters' lives.
"I think the drama has the capacity to resonate with audiences across different age groups," Yang Xiaopei says.
As per Yang Xiaopei's explanation, the crew meticulously studied the daily habits of individuals living in Beijing during that period to capture authentic details in props, including practices like winter cabbage storage, burning coal balls, and the presence of street vendors selling sugarcoated hawthorn.
In terms of costume design, items like batwing sleeves, bell-bottom pants, scarves and headbands authentically recreate the ambiance of that era.
To recreate the Shichahai ice rink of the 1970s, the team crafted detailed blueprints, and ultimately enclosed an area exceeding 10,000 square meters.
Yang Xiaopei highlights the involvement of over 100 members from skating clubs who served as extras. As the machines operated, they glided naturally, infusing the entire scene with a profound sense of authenticity.
This was not just a leisurely pursuit or hobby but a genuine reflection of the lifestyle of Beijing residents during that era, she says.
Young actors' ambitions
The series unfolds over a span of 30 years, requiring each key actor to navigate three decades of character development. The main cast delivers a compelling performance that leaves the audience thoroughly satisfied.
During casting, Yang Xiaopei emphasized her willingness to provide opportunities for young actors, but she steadfastly avoided relying solely on popularity. She placed greater importance on the suitability of the role and the actor's genuine passion for the character.
Xiao Chunsheng's character is played by actor Xiao Zhan. Yang believes that Xiao Zhan shares commonalities with the role in both image and character.
"They both exude optimism, sincerity, uprightness and the courage to confront challenges. When combined with Xiao Zhan's profound understanding and portrayal of the character, he can be deemed the ideal choice to bring Xiao Chunsheng to life," Yang Xiaopei says.
"The integrity, kindness and sense of justice that define Xiao Chunsheng harmonize seamlessly with Xiao Zhan's simplicity and sincerity. Moreover, in terms of appearance, Xiao Zhan's stature and posture perfectly suit the role," Yang Xiaopei comments, adding that Xiao Zhan even sought out a teacher to learn the Beijing dialect.
Zhou acknowledges the outstanding performances delivered by the entire main cast. "Li Qin's portrayal of Tong Xiaomei also stands out. She is an exceptionally thoughtful actor, meticulously considering whether each plot point aligns with Tong's character, and whether it is within her capabilities to portray them." Zhou says.
"Of course, this extends to Liu Ruilin, Cao Feiran and the other young actors who, to my pleasant surprise, shone brightly. Everyone surpassed expectations, delivering performances that were truly exceptional."
Cao, 28, portrays the character of He Hongling, who shares numerous emotional scenes with Xiao Chunsheng in the drama.
Reflecting on the filming experience, Cao mentions that Xiao Zhan, with his extensive acting background, often provided valuable assistance on set. "If I did something well, he would point it out, enhancing my confidence in the process of shaping the character," she notes.
As both Cao and Xiao Zhan fully embraced their respective roles, spontaneous dialogue between them became a common occurrence on set.
Cao perceives He as a radiant, goal-driven individual with ambitions. However, influenced by her family background and the era's milieu, He is also a complex, self-interested individual living in the present, Cao adds.
In preparation for her role, Cao learned the violin and how to ice skate before joining the production. Additionally, she sought insights into the emotional experiences of individuals from that era by consulting her parents. "My parents mentioned that emotions during that time were relatively straightforward and pure."
Cui Hang, 34, delivers a compelling performance as Chen Hongjun, the close companion of Xiao Chunsheng. Successfully overcoming the challenges of the college entrance exams, Chen gains admission to university, and eventually becomes ensnared in the tumultuous currents of power, while ultimately landing in prison.
Before delving into this role, Cui took the time to thoroughly understand the character, charting the logical progression of changes in Chen's journey.
Throughout the series, Chen's glasses change three times, with each pair symbolizing a significant shift in identity, status and mindset.
From glasses mended with tape, to the pair gifted by Ye Fang so he could focus on preparing for the college entrance exams, to the gold-rimmed glasses worn after ascending in rank. Cui explains that the prop was chosen to signify changes in his character's social standing and mindset.
In the final office scene, Cui devised a meaningful gesture. He meticulously straightens the national emblem on his cap, wipes it clean, and then places the hat on the table, simultaneously removing his glasses.
"This is a farewell to his mistakes of the past," Cui explains.
Spanning 30 years, Chen's narrative presented a unique challenge for Cui, marking his first portrayal of a character with such a broad age range. Despite the inherent challenges, Cui found the experience immensely gratifying.
"The set design instantly transported us to an era half a century ago as soon as we arrived. The props, hats, scarves — everything belonged to that specific period. As actors, it was effortless to immerse ourselves in our roles," Cui says.
In the series, the character of Ye, Chen's wife in the drama, is brought to life by Beijing native Zhao Xin, who was profoundly captivated by Ye's personality when delving into the character's background.
"I find this girl incredibly intriguing. In that era, how could there be such an intelligent and clearheaded young lady? She is remarkably perceptive and forthright," Zhao says.
Ye earned the endearing nickname "prophet" from the audience, due to the character's accurate prediction of the reinstatement of the college entrance exam. Zhao believes that Ye's popularity is attributed to the fact that contemporary young women exhibit a strong sense of independence, and they can connect with Ye on a personal level.
"I've learned valuable lessons from the character. She possesses a profound pursuit of ideals and approaches situations with a highly rational mindset," she says.

queer rep in 《鸣龙少年》 The Hope (2023)
i just finished bingeing all 30 episodes last night and i thought i was over this, but i'm really not.
Yu Yang (禹洋) is a shy senior in Class 11 with a stammer. in ep. 5, we learn that due to health issues, he took an extended leave from school and thus had to repeat his second year, so he's a year older than his peers. his mother is well-meaning but overbearing, and he was made the target of quite egregious bullying before he joined Lei Ming's (雷鸣) class. throughout the show, we see him become more and more willing to voice his own opinions and set boundaries, esp. with his mother.
(a side point, but i absolutely adore how the show did not pathologize his stammer as a bad thing he had to be "cured" of; it's through unconditional acceptance and encouragement from the adults in his life and his friends that we see him naturally come out of his shell.)
unlike his four friends in Class 11, he doesn't seem to be embroiled in any of their tangled 感情线 / "love" lines, nor does he seem to have one at all—until ep. 21.
on new year's day, the Class 11 CPs are a mess. Jiang Qinglang (江晴朗) confesses to Cheng Yushan (程雨杉), leaving poor Bian Xiaoxiao (边晓晓) who likes JQL and Li Ran (李燃) who likes CYS behind.
so when the fireworks go off, JQL and CYS are togther, whereas BXX and LR are together—contrary to how the show has been pairing them thus far.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
then we cut to YY, who is watching the fireworks alone, but about to text someone.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
that's a name we haven't seen before! Wu Fan (吴凡), i wonder who that is?
importantly, we see him delete the "I" and instead wish this person "happy new year."
Tumblr media
the entirety of ep. 21 was about confessions, crushes, dating/breaking up/moving on, and the innocent and pure feelings we experience in our 青春 / youth.
Tumblr media
so it's truly not that big of a stretch for me to think that what YY may originally have been intending to write was “我喜欢你” / "I like you."
then, in ep. 24, Lei Ming takes his class on a trip to Qingbei University in Beijing. and it's there we finally learn who the mysterious WF is.
four years ago in 2015, an older student once stood up for the bullied YY and ended up with quite a nasty beating.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
as YY quietly cleans his savior's injuries, they have a brief exchange:
Yu Yang: I'm sorry. Wu Fan: You haven't done anything wrong. What are you apologizing for? In the future, raise your voice when you speak and build up your muscles; I guarantee no one will dare to mistreat you. If that really doesn't work, let's enroll in the same university later on. In the future, I'll continue to protect you.
in the present (2019), YY is waiting outside WF's university. originally overjoyed to see WF, YY's expression drops when he sees his xuezhang with a girlfriend. nevertheless, this might be one of the only times in this entire show we see YY don such a sweet open-mouthed smile.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
they grab milk tea together and catch up, reminiscing about their earlier years. unfortunately, whereas YY has never forgotten their first meeting, WF remarks that he would've forgotten about it entirely if not for YY mentioning it now.
then YY asks what will happen after WF graduates.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
the camera cuts to a shot of the milk tea brand: 心意 / the intentions of my heart.
this milk tea shop is a recurring setting throughout this drama. it's where one of the main CPs (Li Ran & Yu Chengshan) had one of their earliest interactions in ep. 3, and it has consistently been romantically coded (e.g., a boy treating his crush to a cup of milk tea).
Tumblr media
so, effectively, as WF tosses away his empty cup, that is also signaling the short lifespan of his current relationship.
finally, WF encourages YY. only...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wu Fan: I promised my mom I'll return home to take the civil service exam. After I graduate next year, I'll immediately go back to Xingzhou.
Tumblr media
and then, once again, as YY sadly watches WF walk away, the camera cuts to the milk tea cup in his own hands.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
in the end, Yu Yang never got to express his 心意 for his xuezhang, and he can only keep it to himself.
but as their Chinese teacher Tan Xiaozhou (谭小舟) remarked earlier in ep. 21 during their class on love poems:
Love is not only in the present tense or future tense, but also in the past tense. Having loved before doesn't mean that the current love isn't real. Loving now doesn't mean you won't love again in the future. If you didn't obtain it, or you broke up—without longing, without resentment—silently remembering the beautiful parts—bidding "Take care" in a cool demeanor: this, also, is love. [...] To me, the most important thing about love is that I can respect your independent nature, protect your lonely soul, and defend your right not to love me.
and so concludes our Class 11 xuezhang's 感情线. for a gaokao-prep cdrama that aired on CCTV8, i honestly cannot believe we got any of this.
here are two more small instances of queer acknowledgment:
in ep. 13, school psychologist Sang Xia (桑夏) leads a lecture on sexual harassment: what it looks like, how to prevent it, how to keep yourself safe. right from the start, she emphasizes that boys can be victims as well—and also that harassment can occur between same-sex individuals.
in ep. 21, when the school runs amok with dating rumors among the teachers, Sang Xia questions why everyone defaults to thinking that it must be a male teacher confessing to a female teacher.
overall, i seriously cannot recommend this show enough. it tackles so many themes (e.g., the premature grief of losing a loved one to Alzheimer's; the importance of destigmatizing depression and mental health overall; the hugely significant role that family/home life has on students' ability to perform well in school; that parents are not infallible and can be controlling/manipulative/abusive, even if unintentionally; that SES so greatly impacts the trajectory of a student's life; how damaging bullying/cyberbullying can be; and that though society is rife with inequity and injustice, it is the responsibility of adults—as best as they can—to create a more just and safer world for all children), and in both a realistic and gently heartwarming way.

Happy gushiwensday shabbes, we have for you a delightful little jewelry box of a poem by Li He, titled "At Su Xiaoxiao's Grave."
pale orchids' honeydew, dripping like tears; the true lovers' knot is not woven for her, but the flowers by her grave defy shears--- grass for her mattress, pine needles to cover her; wind-skirted, belt jewelled with droplets of water. the bright-lacquered palanquin's waiting at dusk for her, cold bluegreen foxfire to light her way home. under westhill she sleeps now, safe from tempest and storm.
Notes and original text under the cut!
苏小小墓
幽兰露,如啼眼。 无物结同心,烟花不堪剪。 草如茵,松如盖。 风为裳,水为佩。 油壁车,夕相待。 冷翠烛,劳光彩。 西陵下,风吹雨。
Su Xiaoxiao was a famous courtesan and writer in the Qi Dynasty, a couple hundred years previous to this poem being composed. Her tomb is at the border of Jiaxing and Hangzhou. We're not sure what's up with this poetic form! Never seen anything like it before. I find the single five-syllable-line couplet enchanting.
pale orchids --- interesting word choice here! The orchids are 幽 remote or serene, although the word also has a connotation of ghosts or the underworld. I've chosen pale as a word that's associated with both stillness and a corpselike complexion.
true lovers' knot --- according to Gushiwen, 结同心 is a symmetrical knot woven from flowers that symbolizes the steadfastness of love; similar concepts exist in Europe. My interpretation is that she doesn't get one because she never married or anything similar; she died at age 19, so the tone of this might be a little sad.
the flowers by her grave --- referred to as fireworks for their bright colors, which is a bit of a joyful contrast to the first part of this line! They're bright, they're loud, they may ward off demons, and they CANNOT be cut.
to light her way --- an interesting one! As far as I can tell the literal 劳光彩 is something like "working hard to shine brilliantly."
under westhill --- I have no particular reason for not rendering this as Xiling, which is the name of the area around Xiling Bridge in Hangzhou, except that I don't think the emphasis pattern works with these tones.
safe from tempest and storm --- literally 风吹雨 wind blowing and rain; "safe" is editorializing and to make it fit the meter. I might have liked to use the more neutral "while storms blow overhead" but I'm not satisfied with the way it sounds, and home/storm is a nice slant rhyme.

happy gushiwensday saturday! we got curious about the subject of last week's poem by Li He, so we went looking for poems written by Su Xiaoxiao herself.
travelling with Ma Haolan at West Lake
(attributed to) Su Xiaoxiao
According to a Ming-dynasty story, the spirit of famous fifth-century poet & courtesan Su Xiaoxiao visited Ma Haolan and his friend when they were visiting West Lake (centuries later) and wrote this poem in response to theirs:
they came here for singing and dancing once we turn back, and all those talents are just dust young lords, for whom is your virtue green as fragrant grass? on Cold Food the pear blossoms open without being told you call at the palace door, ranks of clouds attending I'll wait on the balcony, visiting the rain only the northern crane will carry my feelings the pines and cypresses of Xiling stand in their gloom
i feel like this is a pretty rough translation... i'm really sleepy today and we had to do a lot of contextualizing research since gushiwen didn't provide any notes
和马浩澜游西湖诗
苏小小
此地曾经歌舞来,风流回首即尘埃。 王孙芳草为谁绿,寒食梨花无主开。 郎去排云叫阊阖,妾今行雨在阳台。 衷情诉与辽东鹤,松柏西陵正可哀。

GJ and ZZH Updates — June 12-18
<<< previous week || all posts || following week >>>
This is part of a weekly series collecting updates from and relating to Gong Jun and Zhang Zhehan.
This post is not wholly comprehensive and is intended as an overview, links provided lead to further details. Dates are in accordance with China Standard Time, the organization is chronological. My own biases on some things are reflected here. Anything I include that is not concretely known is indicated as such, and you’re welcome to do your own research and draw your own conclusions as you see fit. A glossary of names and terms often used can be found [here]. Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or additions. :)
06-12 → Gong Jun posted a commercial he did with Mengniu to his personal Weibo. Caption: “Looking forward to the summer sun, but also to the cool summer. Not only to cool off the heat, but also to send you more good moods.” This was reposted by Mengniu with a caption that includes, “The season of natural healing has begun!”
→ Master Wu, a big account who previously spoke out in defense of Zhang Zhehan, made a post insinuating that Gong Jun threatened him and saying that he was going to make Gong Jun “disappear from c-ent forever.” He deleted his post after someone reposted it @ing Gong Jun. 
When people later encouraged him to post a photo of himself holding his ID to prove the validity of his case, as had been done by others recently in response to a violent misogynisitc attack in Tangshan, he replied saying he “isn’t that shameless.”
→ Hu Xia, who performed one of the songs for Word of Honor and is another contestent on the currently airing We Are The Champions, followed Gong Jun on Weibo.
→ Information was posted about a situation that’s been happening in Kris Wu’s fandom, where someone claiming to be helping him and his case has been exploiting fans by selling merchandise “in his name.” Sound familiar? Even the merchandise itself looks shockingly similar to what Xie Yihua’s brand has been putting out.
06-13 → 10 months since 813.
→ The season of Go Fighting! Gong Jun filmed at the start of the month was announced to start airing on 06-26, every Sunday at 9pm.
→ Mengniu posted another commercial featuring Gong Jun. (1129 kadian)
→ Gong Jun’s studio Weibo posted a video for 361° spoken by him (11:38, 1129 and 511 kadian), saying that the new logo—the one which means being surrounded by love—is now more memorable and meaningful. “Passion never graduates, we never say goodbye.” [subbed video]
→ An anonymous post was made on Zhihu from the same location as Master Wu, complaining that CPFs were using the Tangshan incident for their own benefit and as an excuse to act hatefully towards men. The post was deleted after someone commented, “Wu, is this you?” [source]
→ The tea was spilled on Master Wu, showing that he used the traffic from supporting Zhang Zhehan for personal financial gain, has lied about his schooling and his work history, has been accused of plagarism, lied about being a Party member, has lost multiple contract disputes, and had his mother help him commit fraud against his ex-wife, to name just a few things.
→ Believers in the Instagram account tried to hijack a Weibo hashtag about cyberbullying by posting clips from the 05-04 video, specifically the parts accusing Gong Jun and CPFs. [screenshot]
→ A livestream was held by Mengniu in which the giveaway winners were all Gong Jun and Zhang Zhehan fans; the host showed the IDs and read them out. No recording has surfaced yet, but people watching have said this included him saying Zhang Zhehan’s name.
06-14 → Master Wu announced he’s going offline for a week.
→ Fresh posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun. (1129 kadian)
→ Hsu Chi Fu posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun. 
→ Gong Jun posted a video to his personal Weibo for Every Minute, Every Second, Every Day, a new song sung by AI Gong Jun and another AI persona, Du Xiaoxiao. (12:04, 511 kadian) Baidu APP later reposted this, and Honor also posted the video.
→ Three photos and two videos were posted of “Zhang Zhehan” at a driving range in Shanghai wearing the brand’s merch. Caption: “Recommend the song ‘Crazy and Stubborn You’ to everyone by Liu Xin[.] Seeing the message under the music, she felt a little sad and felt more resonance. Good music should be heard by more people.” (mtl) Fan Observations (also found in my Instagram masterpost):   -  The logo on the hat in the second photo is so obviously photoshopped you barely need to zoom in to see it. Also someone found the original unphotoshopped picture.  -  Many people commented that the figure in the videos is shorter. He also is using a shorter club than what is Zhang Zhehan’s known habit. Comparison photos below, leftmost is from this post; [here] is a direct side by side comparison and a visual overlay of the swing; [here] is a discussion about the change in club length. 
Tumblr media
 -  The figure in the video is wearing shorts, whereas Zhang Zhehan always wore pants when playing and practicing golf as is regulation in the sport. This can be seen by looking through the past photos and videos on the same account.  -  Those familiar with the sport commented that his swing is horrible, as opposed to Zhang Zhehan’s which was complimented as professional level by an Olympic gold medalist. They have also commented that his stance is different.  -  [Here] is a visual breakdown of the figure’s ass vs. Zhang Zhehan’s lol. Below it is a further anatomical breakdown and explanation of how these breakdowns were done.  -  [Here] is a thread talking about how this sort of post likely looks to passersby. (Hint: not good)  -  Believers in the account spread images from the videos cropping them to make the differences in stature less apparent.

100 million sold in 4 hours, what’s Dong Yuhui’s next step?
Tumblr media
Since the incident involving Dong Yuhui’s essay was finalized last month, Dong Yuhui has been preparing his own team and studio. On the HE Tuber evening of January 9, he and his team launched the first live broadcast on the new account "Walking with Hui" and launched 7 new anchors; from the data, the 4-hour GMV reached 100 million + yuan, and the number of online viewers peaked About 1.64 million. But what will happen next and whether the effect can be sustained? Now it's time to verify his commercial value and personal ability.
5 hot searches, 1.3 billion likes, 100 million GMV, and 3.3 million followers were all achieved during the first live broadcast of Dong Yuhui’s new account on January 9.
The last time the live broadcasting industry was so lively, perhaps it was the return of Li Jiaqi, the first brother in the field, but this time it was a new account that was only 15 days old that "exploded" the live broadcasting circle.
Almost a month ago, Oriental Screening had the original CEO "step down" and Dong Yuhui "suspended" due to the "little essay" incident. Later, Dong Yuhui started his last live broadcast in Oriental Selection and announced the establishment of his own studio. On the evening of January 9, he and his team launched the first live broadcast on the new account "Walking with Hui" and launched 7 new anchors, showing the momentum of "doing something big".
Judging from the live broadcast that night, Dong Yuhui was in good condition as an anchor and was also ready to transform into a team manager. An example is that he mentioned that he is now anxious about paying wages to his employees. At the same time, he has thanked fans many times in the live broadcast room to operate and maintain the fan group.
Dong Yuhui's influence is still there, but he faces more challenges - recommending books, celebrity interviews, and cultural travel. It is difficult to balance time and energy, and the positioning of the new account is not yet clear. But one thing is very clear. Yu Minhong does not want Oriental Selection to become an MCN company. He is still telling the story of self-operated e-commerce. He hopes that all his capable anchors will open new accounts.
"Whether it is Dong Yuhui or Peer with Hui, the first priority is to stabilize." An industry insider told "Ding Focus" that now is the time to test Dong Yuhui's commercial value. Once the value is not as good as outside expectations, apart from Oriental Selection, the most damaged will be. And Dong Yuhui himself.
1. Dong Yuhui’s new account is so popular that it’s no surprise
Amid the overwhelming comments of "Happy opening", the "Walking with Hui" account had 100,000 people online at the same time just after it was launched on the evening of January 9.
For its first live broadcast, "Walking with Hui" started with seven "new face" anchors. Anchor Panpan and Dong Dong sang a duet of "Do You Want to Dance" by New Pants Band, which heated up the atmosphere in the live broadcast room; then, anchor Chuanxi played guitar and Hansen played piano, showing off their talents; anchor Peng Peng performed a magic trick with two ropes and talked about the universe and life at the same time. Finally, anchors An An and Xiaoxiao warmed up the live broadcast with a Peking Opera performance and an English reading respectively.
During the breaks between the anchors' performances, Dong Yuhui acted as the host and emphasized the benefits of the live broadcast room.
Zhou Ke, the person in charge of an MCN organization, analyzed that the first live broadcast is usually when the popularity is the highest. Dong Yuhui’s intention is very obvious, to “bring people” rather than “bring goods”. But the results of leading people remain to be seen. Fan Xiaobai joked that the way the anchors expressed their "talent + golden words" felt like watching a company's final art performance, like "seven young Dong Yuhui surrounding one Da Dong Yuhui".
In the second half, Yu Minhong appeared on the stage, chatting with Dong Yuhui while carrying goods. During the chat, he "spoiled" the next plan of the "Walking with Hui" account.
It is reported that the "Walking with Hui" team now has more than 70 people, and they are basically employees who were diverted from the "Oriental Selection" team. Before the Spring Festival, the team prepares to live broadcast five days a week, mainly chatting and selling goods. After the Spring Festival, Dong Yuhui will plan to lead the host to broadcast locations and "international tours". By then, there will be insufficient manpower, and recruitment will also begin. "Don't care about sales, care about culture." Yu Minhong set the tone for the "Walking with Hui" account.
Compared with the restraint when he rushed to broadcast after the "Little Composition" incident, and the tragedy when he said "A scholar will die for his confidant", Dong Yuhui regained his "home field feeling" in this live broadcast . Not only did he return to form, but he also became More "mature".
This sense of control, on the one hand, comes from the tacit understanding of the team in front of and behind the scenes. The anchor can naturally and easily exchange ideas with Dong Yuhui. The field control will promptly remind behind the scenes that the link has been filmed and control the rhythm of the live broadcast; on the other hand, it comes from Dong Yuhui. Changes in mentality and role. Yu Minhong mentioned, "In the past, Yu Hui could only listen to arrangements for broadcasting. Now he not only arranges for himself, but also arranges for the team. He has a sense of control than before."
Xiaobai observed that Dong Yuhui was particularly relaxed throughout the live broadcast, his desire for expression became stronger, and his products were sold out as soon as they were launched. She believes that compared with the previous style of selling goods in Oriental Selection, the biggest change of Dong Yuhui and his team is that they began to pay attention to the management of fans. "Fans who are aboveboard, please listen to this advice."
Some "mother-in-laws" (a collective name for Dong Yuhui's fans) said that "So you are here too" and "Walking with Hui" are comments that mothers-in-law often make during Dong Yuhui's live broadcasts. Choosing the first broadcast on January 9th was also a suggestion from fans, because June 9th, 2022 is the beginning of his popularity. Since then, the 9th has also become a festival for fans. At the end of the live broadcast, Dong Yuhui also specifically stated that in response to fans' request, he would no longer directly download the broadcast, but instead played a short video.
There is a short video and a list of staff at the end of the live broadcast
At the same time, during the live broadcast, the team specially played a video to thank the fans, and made the fans' messages in the comment area into a comment wall, which was read by Yu Minhong and Dong Yuhui in the live broadcast room. Chen Ming, a veteran of live streaming e-commerce, said, "Focusing on managing fans shows that Dong Yuhui is moving closer to a professional anchor, and it also means that he has become more mature when he started his own business."
In the end, various data in the live broadcast room also announced Dong Yuhui's return to form.
In the lively atmosphere, the gifts in the live broadcast room of the "Walking with Hui" account have basically never stopped. As of the end of the broadcast, the number of online users of "Walking with Hui" has not been less than 100,000+, and the number of likes has reached nearly 1.3 billion. As of press time, the number of fans of the "Walking with Hui" account has reached 7.42 million, an increase of 3.3 million compared with before the broadcast.
On the night of the premiere of "Walking with Hui", the 4-hour GMV reached 100 million+ yuan, and the peak number of online viewers was about 1.64 million. The Oriental Selection live broadcast room sold about 2.55 million in 16 hours without Dong Yuhui, and the peak number of online viewers was about 1.64 million. 110,000.
The premiere GMV of "Walking with Fai" exceeded 100 million yuan

2. Can Walking with Hui replicate Dong Yuhui’s myth?
The team of "Walking with Hui" stands on the shoulders of their predecessors in terms of live broadcast rhythm, delivery skills, and field control ability. It is not surprising that the first game was popular. Zhou Ke said that according to industry rules, this type of new account live broadcast is often a "proofing" of the first data and performance. The anchor team and product selection ability in the later period are the key factors for whether the account can continue to be popular.
From the product selection point of view, "Walking with Hui" is slightly lacking in features.
Except for the self-operated products of Oriental Selection, most of the other products overlap with Oriental Selection, and the prices are slightly advantageous or even the same. For example, a 5kg fragrant rice from October Rice Field is priced at 35.9 yuan in the "Walking with Hui" live broadcast room, and the non-member price of the Oriental Selection APP is 36.9 yuan. Some members posted the previous purchase price of 31.9 yuan; another example is the Huiqi Fresh Fresh Gift Box , "Walking with Hui" and Oriental Selection Live Broadcast are both priced at 269 yuan.
For the same product, the left is the price in the "Walking with Hui" live broadcast room, and the right is the price in the Oriental Selection APP
Such selection is associated with a shorter lead time. "Walking with Hui" only takes 15 days from opening an account to starting a live broadcast. It will be smoother to discuss cooperation with brands that we have cooperated with before. "Dingjiao" found that Honest Yiyi was also one of the domestic pet brands that Oriental Selection had close cooperation with after opening up the pet category. This time, two dog food products were featured in the live broadcast room of "Walking with Hui". One of the products was released soon.
Chen Ming analyzed that there are two core factors that affect users’ orders. The most important thing is Dong Yuhui himself. His endorsement effect is the most important. As long as Dong Yuhui appears in the live broadcast room to bring goods, someone will pay for the goods; the second is the goods themselves. price, quality, brand.
But except for Dong Yuhui, the other seven anchors in the anchor team are all non-popular anchors from the original Dongfang Zhenxuan sub-account. Why did "Walking with Hui" choose these anchors?
In fact, the eight anchors of "Walking with Hui" cover three generations of "old, middle and young", and they have their own characteristics.
Dong Dong, Xiao Xiao and Yu Hui are veteran anchors who have been present at Oriental Selection since its establishment. Among them, Dong Dong worked behind the scenes at the beginning, and his all-around experience helps in the operation of the account. Xiaoxiao tells English stories to her children every night. In the future, she can work on cultural books, cultural travel around the world, and maternal and infant products.
Pengpeng and Panpan are mature anchors who joined Dongfang Selection after it became popular. Panpan is Yuhui's fellow countryman and undergraduate classmate. He is quite familiar with Dong Yuhui and is called his "dirty excavator"; while Pengpeng is regarded by fans as As the people who can best catch Dong Yuhui's stalk, these two people can cooperate with Dong Yuhui. The last three are newcomers who have joined recently. They have both talent and good looks. An An has experience in Peking Opera, Hansen plays piano, and Chuan Xi plays guitar. They have more room to play during outdoor live broadcasts.
Some people believe that the current reputation of the new anchor is not as good as that of anchors such as Yoyo and Dundun in Oriental Screening. However, compared to the big "involution" in Oriental Screening, there are more opportunities in "Walking with Hui". "Objectively speaking, they still need to explore their own characteristics in subsequent live broadcasts, but they have already obtained the 'ticket' in their career." Zhou Kecheng.
At present, the delivery mode and product selection categories of "Walking with Hui" are similar to the main account of Oriental Selection, and it has become one of the matrix accounts of Oriental Selection. The differentiated positioning of accounts is also an issue that requires Dong Yuhui to spend time thinking about.
Currently, the account is still in the cold start stage, and the account's labels and attributes are not yet stable. Chen Ming pointed out that the team may want to use non-popular anchors for testing to see how fans respond to the new account, and at the same time, use new anchors to undertake new categories and new brands, and new anchors should also seize the opportunity to leave an impression on fans.
The head anchor cannot be copied. Just as it is difficult for an American player to create the second Li Jiaqi, it is also difficult for Dong Yuhui’s team to copy the next Dong Yuhui. However, Yu Minhong does not need to copy Dong Yuhui. He once said that after the influence of other anchors under Oriental Selection reaches a certain level, they will also open separate live broadcast rooms for them as appropriate.
"This may be because Yu Minhong wants to express to the outside world that Dongfang Selection still wants to take the road of self-operated e-commerce instead of the road of MCN." Zhou Ke said that the growth space of super IP is already very limited, and it is necessary to stabilize the overall market. enough.
Absolute "bigness" is a kind of ability, and extreme "stability" is an ability.

"To be kind to your enemy is to be cruel to yourself, but do you really want to do that?" Chu Tianming hesitated, he did not know whether to do so, just attacked Luo Sheng, but also because he attacked himself first, otherwise, Chu Tianming would not have penetrated his body, this is entirely because of a moment of anger will do so. Now once he calms down, facing more than ten years of ideological bondage, he simply can't do that to the other two people! Killing! Do you really want to kill someone? They are all living human beings! Do you really want to kill them because of this? Chu Tianming frowned and sat down, looking at the two people standing on the other side who dared not move, but he was in a dilemma. At this time, Wu Gaofeng, whose face had recovered slightly, came over and could only shake his head helplessly when he saw Chu Tianming's appearance. Here, eat it! Looking up at Wu Gaofeng, Chu Tianming shook his head and let him sit down beside him. "Do you think I should kill them?" He asked. Wu Gaofeng was stupefied. Then he shook his head and said, "Forget it. They don't deserve to die. But we don't have to worry about them any more. Just let them run their own course. By the way, I'm going to leave with you!" "Oh!" With a smile on his face, Chu Tianming looked at Wu Gaofeng and said happily, "In that case, don't you care about them?" With these words,14 needle valve, Chu Tianming pointed to the three of Liu Xiaoxiao, who were making a lot of money over there. Wu Gaofeng smiled, "they can go together, too!" "Together!" Frowned, Chu Tianming actually did not want to take these three encumbrances in his heart, although they all have the skills of sealing, but now they are still in the state of sealing, this is the fact,needle valve manufacturer, with the three of them, Chu Tianming they will definitely encounter a lot of trouble along the way. Looking at Chu Tianming's face, Wu Gaofeng could not help persuading: "Tianming, people are social creatures, not a person can survive, we should find some partners, in the end, more people can survive!" Chu Tianming nodded, he naturally understood this truth, but now is not the time to form a team. After hearing what Wu Gaofeng said, Chu Tianming also agreed to come down, the big deal is to find a safe place on the way to let them stay there temporarily! Chapter 54 Space Ring. Today adds more plans, the total recommendation achieves 3800, adds more one chapter, achieves 4000, 12 needle valve ,stainless steel tube fitting, again adds more one chapter, does not go up the cap, in a twinkling of an eye is Thursday, a week has already passed more than half, next week also does not know what is the recommendation position, hoped everybody can in this week will make this book the result top to go up, thanks everybody!!! After deciding the way of Liu Xiaoxiao, Chu Tianming looked at Li Ke and Ming Ge again. After thinking about it, Chu Tianming still failed to kill them ruthlessly, "forget it, let them stay and fend for themselves!" Of course, the reason why Chu Sheng's death, they thought Chu Tianming would not let them go, now suddenly heard Chu Tianming to let them go, they can not believe it. "Why, you don't want to go, you want to die here!" Chu appear on the turntable in front of him. A piece of Lingshi for the next grade One high-performance locomotive Internal Skill Arhat Heart Sutra A book of magic "Electroshock" A space ring A Black Wolf pistol. A bottle of Bigu Pill One pack of hemostatic powder Give up a knife One more chance. After seeing clearly which prizes were owned in the ten grids, Chu Tianming looked at the big turntable turning quickly, skillfully according to the rules found,hydraulic fitting manufacturer, and shouted'stop 'directly in the place of the magic "Electric Shock". This time the space ring is always mine! Chu Tianming thought happily in his heart. The role of the space ring is self-evident, not only used to place items, but also can play the role of the enemy. chinaroke.com

It doesn’t get more Glitcore than this.  The bar hostess seen in the very beginning of this video reminds me a lot of Glit’s lost human wife (Naoko Mori) in Voice of Stanix, who was a bar hostess, because of course she was, and a close friend of Melissa (not Marissa) Faireborn-Convoy and Xiaoxiao Li. 
In conclusion if Glit is ever in a new TF audio/video production I would like this man, Jero, to be his voice actor.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jero
Jero is pretty awesome all on his own.  First black enka singer in the world, and he is so freaking sexy.  I always knew Glit would be an enka fan but I would never have imagined myself getting into enka before I heard Jero.

Entry 6
On July 14, Tiktok Group's public welfare project "Toutiao Seeking People" announced that by July 2022, it had helped more than 19000 separated families to reunite, and helped 59 people go home at most one day. Among the lost people who were recovered, the longest was 80 years, the fastest was 60 seconds, the oldest was 101 years old, and the youngest was only 3 months. Toutiao Search is a public welfare search project launched by Toutiao in February 2016. Its core principle is to distribute search information based on geographic location accurate pop-up technology, and it is committed to helping all kinds of separated families find the lost with scientific and technological means. According to the White Paper on China's Lost Population (2020) issued by the research institute under the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the elderly, minors, disabled and mentally retarded people, migrant workers, vagrants and beggars with no means to live are vulnerable groups. With the development of the headline search project, platforms such as Tiktok have gradually joined. Since December 2021, Tiktok platform and volunteers have started the live broadcast of family searching to help parents and children spread the information of family searching. As of June 30, 2022, Tiktok has successfully helped 751 people go home by pop-up window and releasing 14681 notices. For more than six years, "Headline Search" has launched "Cross Strait Search for Relatives", "Search for Martyrs' Descendants", "Search for Old comrades in arms", "Chinese Search for Roots", "Tiktok Search for Persons" and other special projects, and has cooperated with a number of public welfare organizations, local civil affairs departments, and relief stations to continuously expand the type of search for relatives. At present, Headline Search has become one of the largest Internet public welfare search platforms. The relevant person in charge of the headline search introduced that Tiktok search made the search more diversified, opening up a new channel for searching for relatives, and the creator ecology of Tiktok platform also provided more resources for searching for relatives. As of July 10, Tiktok search volunteers have successfully recovered 458 people. Huang Defeng (net name: Xiao Xiao) is one of the search volunteers active in Tiktok, and has helped 7 search for relatives to find their families. He was originally a Bouyei youth who was keen on spreading national language. In September 2020, Feng Xiaoxiao received help in Tiktok. Through voice recognition, he successfully helped the Bouyei elderly Deliang, who had been abducted for 35 years, find his relatives. In May and June of this year, he helped a 60 year old man of Yunnan Zhuang and an 80 year old man of Guangxi Zhuang to find their relatives who had been separated for more than 30 years by identifying national languages and releasing videos. Li Jingwei, a recipient of the Headline Hunting Project, was abducted at the age of four and has been searching for relatives for 33 years. On December 15, 2021, he used his memory to draw a map of his hometown by hand, and asked Gan Biao, a volunteer looking for people on Tiktok, to release a video of looking for relatives. 13 days later, he finally found his mother, brothers and sisters in Zhaotong, Yunnan. After the successful marriage recognition, Li Jingwei has also become a Tiktok search volunteer, releasing nearly 100 videos of family search, and has helped many people find their families. In July 2021, Li Shuqin, a native of Zunyi, Guizhou, found his brother who had been missing for 33 years within two days through the video released by Wang Xiaoxin, a search volunteer on Tiktok. Now, he has also become a Tiktok looking for people volunteer. He has released 39 videos of looking for relatives, successfully helping to find two people. It is reported that Li Shuqin's story of looking for relatives has been adapted and shot into a public service short film Two Trees, which will be officially launched on July 15.
