"When Zhenhun and its hashtags swept the Internet, many fans as well as the producers started to worry that the drama might have been too successful and drawn unnecessary attention from government censors. The fans therefore voluntarily abandoned one of the most trending hashtags used by the drama, hashtag #Shehuizhuyi xiongdiqing 社会主义兄弟情, socialist brotherly love, to avoid being mixed up with other BL dramas and becoming implicated, and also to try not to make fun of anything “socialist.” Despite the fans’ proactive moves to “cool down the heat”, eight days after the final episode was aired, the Zhenhun series was removed from Youku on August 2, 2018, for unknown reasons. If the government does not give clear reasons for its actions, its ban on the Zhenhun series is more likely intended to regulate and restrain the fan power than to police the text, because of “the dominant culture’s need to maintain the disciplinary distance between the text and reader”. The cultural capital produced by the fans is dangerous and subversive for a government that strives to instruct its people on living “morally and positively”, and that has been increasingly emphasising the didactic message of literature and art, unwilling to recognise their function as pure entertainment."
-"More than Conformity or Resistance: Chinese 'Boys’ Love' Fandom in the Age of Internet Censorship," by Xi Tian

helloo i was wondering which priest novel would you recommend to someone who mostly enjoys mxtx works?
ah hello i didn't notice the ask 🙏 orz
depends on what you prefer really. each mxtx novel has its own different appeal imo, so it's hard to say what exactly you might be looking for in priest novels
tbh i think you might enjoy priest novels in general, they're witty, well written, the world is well built. the characters are fleshed out and mostly grey, some of them you adore, some you hate, some you have mixed feelings about. i think that i'd describe mxtx novels in similar words, so i'd say just give priest a try!
i can give you some general vibes/ideas about some novels that I've read. i haven't gone thru all priest novels yet, but i can wholeheartedly recommend these:
tian ya ke / faraway wonderers - one of my fav novels ever, it's funny, sometimes heartbreaking, with some sexy moments, the main couple is very grey, like dark grey. jianghu, so some martial arts are involved. there's some political drama but MC is actively avoiding it, which is refreshing. it's quite different from word of honor, so i'd keep that in mind if you watched the drama
qi ye / lord seventh - lots of politics and court shenanigans, so it might be a bit hard if you're not into this sort of thing. has some supernatural elements. great main pair. also you get to see the past of zhou zishu (tian ya ke's MC)
liu yao - another of my all time faves, xianxia with some focus on cultivation sects. i really liked the details on cultivation and various dao paths. it's the definition of found family!! i love all the characters, they're so vibrant and different. you will laugh. you will cry. you will love. you will go through a transformative journey together with the characters that you watched grow. it's just such a good story i can hardly contain all the feelings i have for it. if you like mxtx then i think u might take a liking to it
jin se - if you're into svsss then this might be your thing. main pair has lots of issues and misunderstandings and dubious consent. MC is incredibly smart, i really liked him
zhenhun / guardian - a mix of modern world and supernatural/mythological elements. detective stuff. flashbacks to meetings in the past and feelings kept for millennia might make you think of hualian (tho hualian are babies compared to weilan)
whoever read other novels feel free to add your thoughts
#ask#danshushmei#priest novels#mxtx#idk if i should tag with novels so maybe more ppl find this and possibly give their thoughts#tgcf#svsss#mdzs#tyk#qi ye#zhenhun#liu yao#lhjc#mo du#can ci pin#tai sui#spl#<- i wanna read it so bad after the last vol arrived but i currently got into baihe and im reading fgep#i tagged a few more popular priest novels but there are even more

Speaking of giving people handmade things. Does someone want this guardian quote tote bag that I embroidered with my own hands? I never managed to give it to anyone and it's been sitting in my bookshelf forever (it's why it's all wrinkly in the pics, sorry).

Coming soon: 520 Day Reverse Exchange 2025!!
The Annual Interdimensional Haixing-Dixing 520 Day Reverse Exchange is coming back for 2025!
520 sounds like "I love you" in Mandarin, so May 20th is a bit like Valentine's Day. To celebrate, we're back with the seventh annual 520 Day Reverse Exchange. As the name says, this is a reverse exchange: instead of making your request and that request being assigned to a writer/artist/fanwork creator, here:
You sign up with the kinds of things you enjoy creating.
You choose three writers/artists/fanwork creators based on anonymised ads.
You make a request of each of them based on what they enjoy creating.
You are assigned one request to create for, based on your offer.
You receive a gift from one of the creators you chose.
(An updated rules/info post will go up before sign-ups open, but here is last year's for reference.)
This year's schedule
Sign-ups part 1 - offers: Saturday 22 March - Friday 28 March Sign-ups part 2 - requests: Saturday 29 March - Friday 4 April Matching: Saturday 5 April - Tuesday 8 April Assignments out: Wednesday 9 April at the latest Deadline: Monday 13 May Work reveals: Monday 20 May (there is no anon period)
This exchange is run on Dreamwidth and AO3, but you don’t need a Dreamwidth account to participate. We’d love it if you filled out or anon-commented on the interest poll on Dreamwidth, but that’s also not required. :-)

[ENG SUB] Bai Yu's 2017 birthday livestream FULL
youtube
mentions of Guardian:
"Zhu Yilong is an actor I really admire"
"Guardian really is a good read. However because we will be... Making some adjustments and making some changes to the original novel."
"Please call me Guardian Order Chief, thanks."
"I quite like the Guardian drama. When I read the novel I felt that its subject matter was quite good, quite unique. Different. But because of some limitations we have made changes from the original novel. But I believe that the finished product won't disappoint everyone and I'll do all that I can to do this well. This is what I have been ALWAYS doing."
"where is our Da Qing? Wanna eat little fried fish? Don't ask me for them, go ask Lao Li by the door!"
