dandelionjd Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Hi all! It's so great to have here all of you!@mimi26 I'm so happy that I'm wrong.bed scene!!! Wow!!! it's so amazing!kekekeke, but i'm not sure since just translating on google trans. If any bed scene it means this is her third bed scene in drama, right? SKKS, HEALER, BOTM (if it's true) off topic: just visiting The Four thread (ZH's latest historical drama), they waited for over one year to watch it. Wah how patient they are.But lets just enjoy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Eileen531 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 ahaha, @dandelionjd, I guess you could count SKKS on the list but then you would have to multiply it about 10 times since she slept in the same room with two other scholars....... What scene did you think was a bed scene.......when they were married at the end? To me it didn't count as a bed scene but that is my take on it. lolAlso, in Princess Ja Myung Go she is married and is in a bed on her wedding night, all covered up of course. lolI'm really surprised if there is a bed scene in BOtM, since I heard there are rules in Chinese dramas.....someone posted a list of not allowed types of scenes and a bed scene was on the list. Hmmm, really curious now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frannie_8pie Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Greetings chingus! Thank you for this new thread @mimi26. <3It looks like BOTM will be broadcast online first before any of the TV networks picks up the drama in 2016 as per reported in this article:"Another online series that has attracted more than 100 billion yuan in investments is Braveness of the Ming produced by LeTV. The drama is an adaptation of the 2011 online novel by Yueguan (Wei Lijun). Although LeTV is coproducing the show with Guizhou TV, the series will first appear online before it is broadcast through traditional means."Source: http://www.globaltimes.cn/content/914754.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frannie_8pie Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Here are some pics of the prayer ceremony that were posted on Weibo. They had great weather that day so that's usually already a good sign for filming that will run smoothly and harmoniously. Wish them all an enjoyable time in filming!

frannie_8pie Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Here's the poster that came out in early March of this year for the drama. The full cast was yet to be confirmed at that time so the faces of the lead actors could not be used in this poster.

I'm curious if it's for good luck or what the meaning is about? Thanks.My pleasure @Eileen531. The Red envelopes are usually "Lucky Money" packets given to staff by the bosses ( or possibly the TV studio in this case) in encouragement and token of appreciation for the staff's forthcoming dedication and efforts to the project. It's kind of like an early bonus if you may with a possibility for more bonus money packets if the drama does well ratings wise. It's common practice along with the opening prayer ceremony for each movie/drama before filming in China and other parts of Asia.

Yes, over 100 billion yuan is considered a pretty big budget for a 30 ep Chinese historical drama. Look forward to some great visuals from this drama. There will most likely be lots of promotions too when it nears its release date. Plus, the actors and production staff usually get better catered food during filming of bigger budget productions lol.
