First week of 'Soul of basketball' event 🔥🏀, part 1
(chill start with Du Guangyi 😌 lots of bonus videos though!)
⬆ Days we'll cover🌟
Official announcements: Reminder from an urgent update, we got a detailed lc stage set tour* 😊 We also got another video! Where LG actors answer the question 'If there was a Time Photo Studio irl, what task would you entrust?' (parallel to the vid with cxs's actors).
Links in replies: stage set tour, LG actors answer the question + my twt thread with translations 🌟, Cai Lu's 2 new clips from rehearsals 🙏 + Metablue's video about composing 'Friendship's Faith' (found by @saelterlude <3
* thanks to a set tour (and @shimmeringweeds translation <3), now we know the mystery drink from encore is not a vinegar but a plum juice!
Aside from that, Encore Musical's weibo is keeping a score record of basketball matches:
I will delve deeper into some individual scores, because we (musical brainrot gang from lc discord) are doing our own bets on who wins. We're invested and so should you, trust me 😤
April 19th: Teng Chunpeng, Du Guangyi, Deng Xianling
Nothing out of usual during the match, Basketball God tcp just doing his job 😊 At 'You can forget about it' Deng Xianling was having a hard time tying her shoes ><
Listen, I am sorry for potential 'clickbait', they just look like this ;w;
April 20th, noon: Ding Xingchen, Du Guangyi, Cai Lu
Basketball match was a tie this time. Also, puppy hat made a comeback thanks to dgy :>

(backlog, the most 🫣😳💅✨photos with the actors you requested)
Disclaimer??: I'm asexual, and call people 'hot' mostly as a joke. Honestly, I don't have a good feel for what's attractive in people, so sorry if you expected more (I tried my best to feed you) ><
On the other hand, I promise this post has no intent to objectify the actors and is just to appreciate them 🌟 I'm sure it was a given for you, but since the musical involves real people I'd rather be extra careful to be respectful :>
⬆ Wang Minhui ✨People seem to like his dancing moves (and arms, especially the arms. fair)
⬆ Teng Chunpeng <3
⬆ Shu Rongbo (the first photo? he posted it on his weibo >>)
⬆ Ji Xiaokun (Quarri I'm sorry there's so little, I'll add more next time)
⬆ Wu Yihan (@saelterlude sent me a cute clip with him, so check the replies for a link to click)
And finally, an extra treat ^u^ My darlings, I present you Wu Yihan as Florence from 桑塔露琪亚/Mio Fratello musical 💅✨It took an immense brainrot and luck to learn about the existence of this character. And a lot of time to find at least one picture of her 😤 Huge thanks to @chocolatexiaoshi for help with researching 🙏
I went down this rabbit hole and thought it may be interesting for my fellow Wu Yihan enjoyers 💕 Sorry for the huge offtop ><'
About 'Mio Fratello', it's a long term musical with small cast (like LC play), in that case 3 actors. It's a story about Italian mafia combining the present with flashback elements?? Wu Yihan actually plays the mafia boss, Sonny Boy. That is his main character:
Florence is a different character from the past memories/flashback part. So Wu Yihan plays her bc they only have 3 actors. The reason it's so hard to find pictures of him in this costume, despite him still performing in Mio Fratello, is that Florence appears in the main plot. And as we've learned with LC musical, we only get to see the encore recordings😞
But I saw people praise his depiction of Florence, saying it was 'really visible (he) studied carefully what is a cute girl like' yet there were 'no common stereotypes for female characters' 🙏 imo? another reason to love this guy 💙
*Oh, trivia! Currently, Zhao Muzhi also plays in Mio Fratello. And Shu Rongbo used to as well (he doesn't anymore). They did different characters.
k byeee 🏃♂️💕

(it's been a busy time, so let's do a summary)
Because of Chinese New Year holidays, the musical is currently on a break 🐲🌟 There were just a few last performances and now they're resting 🙏 However, some extra content came out, so let's go through it (all video links in replies as always :*)!
LC Musical got media coverage on CCTV (Chinese Central Television - main national tv station in China). It was a short material promoting the play and the theatre, you can actually watch it on Encore Musicals' weibo and bilibili. The stageplay has gained popularity since the premiere and more people are visiting Shanghai to see it. So this news piece is basically a big shout out and a recommendation 🌟
Another video on Encore Musicals bilibili (and 1st pic at the top of my post) is from when the whole musical crew was drawing red envelopes 🧧 (I didn't know this tradition, so I added the wiki for you too^). Basically Zhang Jiahao and Wang Minhui drew the best gifts and were happy about it ^^
I already posted abt Wang Minhui's vlog with rehearsal scenes, but thanks to @chocolatexiaoshi 💝 explanations and translations from @/Elaraqwq and @/bhd322418 on twt 💙, I can tell you about some fun details about it ^^
⬆ So yea, here Cai Qi really says: "Coincidentally, I'm single too. If you want, I'll be your first boyfriend."
⬆ here Cai Qi starts singing CXS's main plot song "Words can't convey the love", then it cuts to Wang Minhui singing the rest (best thing is, we'll get to see that song performed by Shu Rongbo and Wu Yihan on Feb 10th livestream).
⬆ then he talks about the books they have in sunroom shelves. He points out how the books are all about how to become wealthy and sucessful, with titles like: 'It's performance that counts', 'Project Management Practices', 'Conscientiousness trumps competence', 'Corporate Strategy and Risk Management'. Like, the book he's holding in 2nd pic is written by Jack Ma Jun, 4th wealthiest person in China, you get the vibe... It's such a funny touch and shows attention to details by the crew designing the set ❤ I love the idea of our broke indebted boys having a library of economy coaching books ><'
⬆ (okay... okay, you got this Niebo) Then this part. Wang Minhui is singing a song from another musical (白夜追凶 roughly translated as 'Chasing the murderers day and night') in which they played as twins. Minhui played the older brother who was an experienced policeman.
In order to solve the case, Minhui's character tried to rewrite the psychology of the perpetrator, that's what this song is about. Like he was just imagining the interrogation. So Cai Qi is reenacting what Minhui is singing. It is not the actual choreography to that song 💀
Okay, that's all I had to share about the vlog, thank you Mr Wang Minhui 🧎♂️
From minor news, Encore Musicals announced they'll be auditioning for LC Musical cast. It's probably connected to how it's a long-term stage and they'll need more actors. According to choco-xiaoshi, musicals like this can go on for a year or longer, depending on how well the tickets sell. And for now LC stage is selling well 🌟
They also posted the performace schedule for March, with special events marked. And yes, Shu Rongbo and Wu Yihan have birthdays on the same day, March 10th and will be performing then 😌
Also Liao Jingyuan and Cai Lu posted these pictures:
To finish this post off, have this Rock, Paper, Scissors sequence between Bai Zhuoming and Wu Yihan. It's not recent, but I like it and wanted to post all the pics together but always reached photo limit before I could ><
it's missing Wu Yihan hours fr
Okie, hope you had fun ^^ remember to make use of a masterlist~

(various pics from the actors and other stuff)
⬆I've stumbled upon a profile of Guo Hongxu's friend (?), also an actor, who interacted with some of his pictures and thanks to that I found this stunning set of behind the scenes photos from the promotional photoshoot they did before the premiere. What's interesting, in the last picture you can see the actors were actually using Link Click artbook as a reference :>
I didn't realise earlier, but February 10th will be the Chinese New Years. That's why some actors are posting photos now, to sum up their year of work ^^
⬆this was posted by Zhu Jiayan
⬆these are from Liao Jingyuan
⬆these are from a bit older post from Cai Lu (today she posted a clip of shiguang playing the hand slap game, so check her weibo profile!)
⬆this one is out of context set from Wu Hanglu, but I add it bc it has Shu Rongbo and Wang Yifei too >< aand I think the other girl is Yu Mengying (?)
⬇A hug from 240128 performance with Wang Minhui and Teng Chunpeng
A person who was in the audience that day said on twt (@/friendsnevertre): 'TengChunpeng cried a lot (during the earthquake main plot part, they do that) and was still crying at the encore, then he asked WangMinhui lg for a hug and WangMinhui lg kept patting and comforting him[...]' they're so sweet :'>
A throwback to Cao Muzhi's birthday:
And Zhu Hanbin LG in glasses 😔👌✨
(oop i still have more glasses pics, gotta make more posts)
but now, byee~

Goodnight from me and all the beautiful Link Click musical ladies (especially my new wife ChengXiaoGuang ma)
Wang Minhui/Lu Guang as a housewife from encore did irreversible changes in my brain. I suddenly remembered how gay for mother figure type of bossy women I do be sometimes /_ \ But also the genderfuckery of it all? amazing.
this photo sequence is soo 😶I can't comprehend it help
Also
shiguang yuri musical edition and these are the girls 💅✨

(just... look at them 🙏)
Deng Xianling, Teng Chunpeng, Du Guangyi
It's more or less a Teng Chunpeng appreciation post. I didn't vibe with his goofiness at first, but it grew on me ^^' He's so hyper all the time, like a huge dog with zoomies >< And he has a distinctive, high energy dancing style. OveralI, from the bits I've seen, his personality seems to hype up the rest of the cast. Du Guangyi is often smiling at him despite trying to stay collected. It's endearing <3
I've also figured out when does Xiaoshi pull up on a ceiling, like here:
They don't do it often. It's a part in the beginning of the 'sofa trio' song. CXS climbs there, Qiao Ling brings him down, while Lu Guang starts singing. Then they both run to the sofa. There are videos of it, let me know if you want a link~
Good night for now ✨

Middle of April summary, part 1
(big dog energy Wang Yifei and poor cat Guo Hongxu also the usual wmh&tcp)
I'm sorry if this batch of updates will be kinda weak, but I've been working a lot this week, I had no time to sort through the photos and the burnout is catching up on me and I just wanna sleep tbh /_\
⬆ Days we're gonna cover😇 First I'd like to focus on ghx&wyf days, bc they were quite eventful. And next update is gonna cover jyq's birthday to give it enough attention :>
Official announcements: The theatre released the schedule from May 13th to June 2nd. There will be more Jing Yanqiao, from new lineups we'll get Wu Yihan with Wang Yifei 🌟
They will also be doing a little game for the audience where they can bet what the score is going to be in 'Friendship's Faith' basketball matches. People who win the bet will be rewarded with basketball-themed special photocards. There's a whole video where Teng Chunpeng and Du Guangyi explain the rules of the event, so if ya wanna cluelessly stare at them talking for 2 min, I'll link that ><'
Links in replies: ^the vid mentioned above, wyf&ghx 13.04 encore, funi ghx clip
April 12th: Teng Chunpeng, Wang Minhui, Qian Anqi
wmh did raise his hand in time to make a heart ><'
the pout
April 13th, noon: Wang Yifei, Guo Hongxu, Qian Anqi
New lineup full of surprises 🌟 I'll link it, you watch it m'kay? It's better if you just watch it ;> Pay attention to Guo Hongxu's reactions to Wang Yifei's antics, like him covering the mic to sing 'Dive back in time'.
In sd interview ghx talks about the jump hug and says sth along the lines of: 'I seem to dislike it on a surface. In fact I liked it! [laughs] it was quite a fresh feeling (for the encore)'
April 14th, night: Wang Yifei, Guo Hongxu, Deng Xianling
He's learning!
