According to page 163, the film "Lover" by Zhao Lusi and Peng Guanying has been submitted by the platform to the censorship agency to request a broadcasting license. Notably, the film was cut from 24 episodes to 14 episodes.
This information surprised fans because the film is still under construction. Previously, the film had to be temporarily suspended indefinitely due to health problems of the female lead Trieu Lo Tu.
According to Sohu, the producer tried to cut and edit the film to complete it, and tried every way to help the film air. This action was commented as a "trial to eat sticky rice" because the opportunity for "Lover" to air was very weak.
First of all, not completing all the scenes and collaborating the content in a sketchy and disjointed manner will cause the quality of the film to decline, not ensuring the release to the audience.
In addition, the scandal related to Zhao Lusi's health or the director's absence from the set and the constant changes in script are also major reasons why the film is unlikely to receive support. In particular, recently, the General Administration of Radio and Television of China has had many strict regulations in the censorship stage. A patchwork work with many errors in the filming process like "Lover" is even more unlikely to be able to air.
"Lover" marks the first collaboration between Zhao Lusi and Peng Guanying. Right from the start of filming, the film received a lot of controversy because of the difference in appearance and age between the male and female leads.
In the latest article denouncing the management company Galaxy Cool Entertainment, Zhao Lusi hinted at having to pay compensation to the film crew without any support from the company. Her reputation with industry directors has also been severely affected.
The film "Lover" is adapted from the novel "Unoformed Floating Fish" by author Hera Khinh Khinh. The film is directed by Dang Khoa, written by Ma Tu Vu, and the main cast includes Trieu Lo Tu and Bang Quan Anh.
The film revolves around the unrequited love story that has lasted for 8 years between Nguyen Du (Trieu Lo Tu) and Dang Duc (Banh Quan Anh). Meeting in a big city, the two fell in love but got lost because of an incident with Nguyen Du's family.
Four years later, the couple accidentally met again and had the opportunity to work together. However, Nguyen Du found a new direction for his life and decided to study abroad for 4 years. After 8 years apart, both of them had the courage to pursue the love of their lives.
