The biographical film "Mui Yanfang", directed by "Cold War" director Liang Lemin, earlier released its first film trailer at the end of May, recreating the moment when Mui Yanfang last stepped on the stage of the Red Pavilion. Recently, a complete cast list of the movie "Mei Yanfang" was leaked on the Internet, and other actors can be seen including Zeng Zhiwei, Cen Jiaqi, Wu Ruoxi, Liao Ziyu and Lin Jiadong. And Zeng Zhiwei and Wu Ruoxi will play Luo Wen and He Yunshi respectively, which has caused a lot of controversy.
It is rumored on the Internet that Zeng Zhiwei and Wu Ruoxi will perform in "Mei Yanfang".
Although the official movie promotional poster of "Mei Yanfang" can be seen everywhere, the film performance lineup is still quite confidential, and only three actors have been announced, namely Wang Dani, who plays Mei Yanfang, Gu Tianle, who plays Liu Peiji, and Liu Junqian, who plays Zhang Guorong.
When the list of other actors flowed out on the Internet, many netizens had a lot of criticism of this performance lineup, and even anger, all because the casting was very awkward, rumors said that Zeng Zhiwei would play a generation of singers Saint Rowan, and Mei Jie's apprentice He Yunshi was played by Wu Ruoxi.
Another thing that caused netizens to make a fuss was the role of Chen Baiqiang, played by Cen Jiaqi. As for the other actors, there are Lin Jiadong and Liao Ziyu, the former playing Mui Yanfang's record company general manager and her friend Su Xiaoliang, while the latter playing Mei Yanfang's sister Mei Aifang.
For this "performance list", many netizens reacted greatly at that time. However, the circulating wiki page can no longer be found, and the list of performances of "Mei Yanfang" has been revised to only the official announcement of three actors, namely Wang Dani, Gu Tianle and Liu Junqian. In response to an inquiry from the Hong Kong media, the film company said: "The cast circulating on the Internet is not an official lineup, and an official announcement will be made later. ”
