The Chinese historical drama "Thich Duong" starring Truong Lang Hach is scheduled to start filming in September, but the female lead role has not yet been finalized.
Currently, Lu Duc Hieu, a junior colleague of Chung Tinh Thoi Dai company with Truong Lang Hach, is considered the most promising candidate.
If this becomes true, this will be the second collaboration of the two after "The Empress of China", and this information immediately faced strong opposition from Truong Lang Hach's fans.
Recently, Truong Lang Hach's global fan club posted "Declaration to protect rights", publicly opposing Lu Duc Hieu taking on the female lead role in "Thich Duong", and at the same time pointing the spearhead towards the joint management company of the two, Chung Tinh Thoi Dai.
The fan club believes that the company is "pooling resources", taking advantage of Truong Lang Hach's appeal to bring opportunities to other artists under the company, and if they continue to arrange for the two to cooperate again, they have reached the tolerance limit of fans.
In the statement, the fan club also said that Lu Duc Hieu's team "has repeatedly damaged Truong Lang Hach's career interests", and also assessed that the actress has not met the audience's expectations for a quality work in terms of public image, market feedback and acting relevance.
Therefore, the fan club calls on the film crew to carefully consider the process of casting actors to avoid affecting the quality as well as the reputation of the film because of the issue of casting actors.
According to media reports, the strong reaction of Truong Lang Hach's fans stems from long-accumulated dissatisfaction.
According to fans, during the time the two actors collaborated in "Wan Zhiwu", Lu Yuxiao's manager interacted with an anti-fan account of Zhang Linghe named "fofo". This person publicly admitted to spreading rumors that Zhang Linghe bullyed supporting actors in the film crew.
Fans believe that Lu Yu understands the existence of this anti-fan but still lets management maintain a close relationship with that person.
In addition, fans are also not satisfied when many brands that Truong Lang Hach represents such as Chopard, Pantene, MLB and Tom Ford, Lu Duc Hieu all appear in the role of "brand friends", making them suspect that the company is intentionally "linking resources" between the two artists.
In addition, Truong Lang Hach's fans believe that Lu Duc Hieu's reputation is not good because there were many rumors about her working attitude before.
According to circulating information, when filming a movie, she once made Tran Tinh Huc wait up to 7 hours, and continuously filmed poorly, causing the film crew's progress to be significantly delayed.
During the filming of "Hà bất đồng chu độ", Lu Duc Hieu was also accused of holding a knife prop upside down, while wearing funeral attire but laughing and filming a TikTok dance video right at the film studio.
However, Lu Yuxiao's office has repeatedly spoken out to deny these accusations, affirming that these are all fabricated information and maliciously cut and pasted.
The case of Truong Lang Hach's fan club protesting Lu Duc Hieu also divided public opinion into two streams: one side supports fans speaking out to protect their rights, the other side believes that fans are intervening too deeply in the casting work.
