I too watched the hbomberguy video and went straight to Twitter, whereupon I found that James Somerton had mentioned danmei in one of his videos and it made everyone mad, so I went looking and. yeah here's a full transcription of his just completely incorrect coverage of cql and mdzs from "Hollywood's (Gay) China Problem" so you don't have to watch it and give him views:
"The 2019 fantasy series The Untamed, featuring an unlikely bond between a man with magic powers and a stoic prince, started an online craze over the pair's implicit romance, but the show's promotion focused on its portrayal of Chinese traditional culture, a push consistent with Chinese communist party propaganda.
The show was... Queerbait-y. But the novel on which it was based [shows a picture of the fanmade cover for The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation made by fan translator team Exiled Rebels] certainly was not. That featured a very explicit love story between the two main characters, but was self-censored when adapted to meet the censorship guidelines of the Xi Jinping government. But it didn't matter. Like so much queerbaiting before, people saw through the weak veneer of heterosexuality. They "took the bait", so to speak. The series has accumulated a total of 9.5 billion views in China as of this summer, and had also received an international release via Netflix. It was described as a global phenomenon, taking off like no BL series before it, making its way all around Asia and with the Netflix deal, all across Europe and North America as well.
Tencent, the Chinese streaming platform it originated on, saw 2.6 million new subscribers to the service when it was released. And WeTV, an app that lets you watch BL content anywhere in the world, saw growth of 250% while the show was airing. In January of 2020, the cast members planned to embark on a multi-city, worldwide fan meeting tour. Cities included Bangkok, Singapore, Tokyo, Seoul, Macau, Kuala Lumpur, Toronto, Los Angeles, New York... But it was cancelled due to COVID-19.
Even the Chinese government has endorsed it. The overseas popularity of these romantic sword-wielding heroes is often highlighted in Chinese media coverage focusing on the massive overseas streaming numbers and its ability to build a growing appreciation of the charm of Chinese culture."

hiii i'm new to brocedes. i know some basic storyline now but can you share some silly stories about them
they have some silly stories from their childhood, such as lewis learning how to learn the unicycle the same day after seeing nico come on the grid and ride one, robert kubica growing up with these two competitive freaks who would race eating pizzas.
Tumblr media
here's a story about keke nico anthony and lewis in the same car and keke giving anthony a heart attack. (speaking of~ anthony has that unicycling pic of brocedes framed in his house). since nico and lewis shared a room while karting they got up to a lot of shenanigans like throwing mattresses out of the hotel room, and asking to eat ice cream 🥹
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is a pic of nico, lewis, and vivian partying when they're 19ish~
more on from their adults, since we know they live in he same building. here's lewis' facebook status about playing ping pong with his teammate and neighbour :) lewis also kept his watches in a safe in nico's bathroom the first year he moved in monaco? 😭😭
some silly stuff: here's nico teaching lewis italian but its all nsfw 😭
they love calling each other old despite having a 6 month age gap here's them bickering
here's nico climbing on lewis while lewis says I know you love me man
here's nico pretending to jack off lewis while daniel live slug reacts
lewis behaving like a normal heterosexual when asked how he first met nico
during their first day as teammates they both crashed in the exact same puddle immediately after each other 😭
Tumblr media
perhaps the silliest brocedes feud of all time:
the f1 dinner of all the drivers where the bill was split 19 ways 😭
lewis claims it was nico's idea, nico says its customary for the reigning champion to pay

A little earlier in the F2 season, we caught up with Williams Racing Academy Driver Logan Sargeant.
Wanting to get to know him just a little bit better, and with a big date in Austin now on the horizon, we tasked him with answering 22 questions about racing and life in general.
Here’s what he had to say…
What race day rituals do you have?
If weekends are going well, I tend to stick with the same underwear for each day. Before you worry, they’re different pairs! I have a Friday, Saturday, Sunday set. But if it’s not going well, I have to make a change!
What's your go-to coffee order?
Latte, but it's a double espresso before quali.
What's the inspiration behind your racing number?
This year it’s six because I can’t choose in F2, but when I am allowed to pick, it would be No3. Three for Dale Earnhardt, an all-out American hero.
Your favourite drink?
I’ve only just turned 21… but it’s water, of course.
If you had to cook one main course to impress a loved one, what would it be?
Oooo… I’m not much of a cook, but I can tell you what I would order in! I love a good prime rib.
What’s your favourite film?
Love the Jump Streets, but I’ve got a lot of time for Step Brothers. But if I had to choose out of the two, I’d go Jump Streets. I suppose I have to choose which one?! But 21 and 22 are both pretty good. Ah, I can’t decide.
Who is the toughest rival you've come up against so far?
It’s got to be the battle in Formula 3 between myself and Oscar Piastri.
Your favourite cheat meal?
Fortunately I have a quick metabolism, so they come relatively often… my American roots mean it would have to be a nice, juicy burger.
How many attempts did it take to pass your driving test?
Just one, which is apparently pretty rare for racing drivers! That’s including the practical and the theory.
Which track are you most looking forward to in 2022?
It’s got to be Monaco, but I’m looking forward to seeing the F1 team in Miami.
You can choose one song only to listen to before a race, what is it?
Lose Yourself - Eminem.
Is there one circuit not on your calendar that you'd love to race at?
Obviously it’s either Miami or Austin; to have a home race would be amazing. That said, I’d love to race at Suzuka some day.
Who is your favourite sports team outside of F1?
Anything Miami! We’re talking Heat, Dolphins, Marlins, Inter Miami… they’ve all got my support.
Least favourite exercise your trainer set for you in the offseason?
I’d say it’s got to be all the extra cardio I had to do to get ready for F2.
What's a better feeling, nailing a quali lap or executing a late overtake?
I saw what Nicky and Alex said to this answer and I have to agree. Nailing a quali lap all day long. It’s my favourite part of a weekend, I love putting it all on the line.
Is there anyone you idolised when growing up?
In racing, my first hero when I was a kid was, funnily enough, Jeff Gordon. I just loved watching him and the way he fought on track.
Favourite sport that's not F1?
At the moment, I’d have to say NFL. But it switches between that and the NBA.
If you could invite anyone in the world to a dinner party, which three people would you choose and why?
I would invite Leo DiCaprio, I feel he’s kind of cool. Then let’s also invite Margot Robbie and Brad Pitt. Let’s make it an A-List movie night!
What is your favourite Grand Prix?
Well, I could be biased and say Austin. I mean, how can you argue against 450,000 fans across the three days last year? That was pretty awesome. But I’ve got to say I love Silverstone as well.
What's been your favourite moment of your career so far?
My rookie race in Macau where I finished third. Definitely, 100%, hands down my favourite track in the world.
One word to describe how you're feeling about the 2022 season?
Confident.
One word that best describes Williams Racing to you?
Supportive.

Panduan Lengkap Login di LAKUTOTO, Bandar Togel Toto Macau Terpercaya
The infamous Porcaro beat leads to the basic violin sus4's therefore beautiful that the crowd can't struggle the desire to sing ahead of the classic oral comes in. Anticipation is everywhere on this song and therefore we typically conclusion the night time with Rosanna as the crowning glory of laku toto a nights smooth music. A whopping 95.75 ranking on the Yachtski scale, this song uses all of the missiles that Toto might fireplace from their collection of badass musicians. Large guitar solos, huge synth solos, large oral and harmonies and Purdie shuffle beat in 12/8 time, this is a visit delaware force. Regrettably, you mostly hear this melody played by bands applying assistance tracks, what a shame. As with yacht rock generally speaking, it's a must to enjoy it live without cheating it behind those pre-recorded support tracks.
So, kudos to artists enjoying it completely live this one is specialist level problem! Tie on your own chair belts, this melody really stones the show.Unfortunately a beat that doesn't score well on the Yachtski degree but results well with the ladies. Hall and Oates is really a juggernaut in the clean steel company and definitely drifts the audience's boat. While purists container the music as away from boat, the audiences require for this like your dog enjoys bacon. It's minimal hanging good fresh fruit but often to help keep our crowd pleased we gotta perform a favorite such as this and probably hurt the purists.
The concept claims everything and certainly our fans want to sing along, party, and otherwise get down to this contagious vocal groove. From the opening keyboard hook and semi-acapella intro, the ensuing base stomping guitar discloses the joy of the crowd. By the full time these big Hall and Oates harmonies pounce on the pre-chorus, the group is cheering and willing to vocalize that joy.This one makes certain it's time to get down. And, at a 89 Yachtski ranking, Lowdown is not only legit, but it's that swagger, that groove, and enough bassy goodness to obtain the folks dancing.
It's yacht gold. Even as we picked it for the early discount movie, it embodies the fun of the ship, the dance of sunlight and the seaside, and that contagious clean that produces you intend to time transfer to the summer of 1976. In reality, Yachty by Character plays that distinctly with double jazz flutes which makes them the only real group on earth that doubles the Ron Burgundy delight of the tune. End back or strike the dance ground that one slays irrespective of your situation.Ahhhhhh, where the yacht matches the 80's in a large way.
I guess this song squeaks onto the vessel with a 61 ranking with JD Ryznar's frustrating support. He rated it a massive 91 while Hunter Step and Hollywood Charlie Huey could have quit it off the vessel using their scores in the 40's. Another group beloved here, Lionel Richie is quintessentially nailing it with fantastic songwriting and an enjoyable, percussion stuffed party tune that gets persons on their legs, let alone the conga line. That requires the ship to some other level or the Lido Terrace even as we contact it. It's a must-have to get people going and truly help the group "escape" to another position and time. This ship is certainly headed to Joy Town…
"hey there's a range, yeah do me on it" (Ron Burgundy reference!)This is the textbook description of clean and the right 100 standing across the panel on the Yachtski scale. It's got the Doobie reversal, peppy and bright keyboard lick and that hot Michael McDonald vocal that devices you up and directs one to a pleased place. The 2nd that violin riff visits, the natives get sleepless and commence to shimmy. Certainly, the Godfather of Yacht Stone and royalty himself, Mr. McDonald lays down a classic dance and croons his way into the musical stratosphere. When the harmonies interact on the refrain it really gets useless attractive and the yacht party is getting into whole swing.

From Zhuhai to the World: “Qiaopi” Opera Showcases Chinese Cultural Diversity and Global Influence
Tumblr media
By Sunlei,Hong Kong Economic Herald,in Shenzhen
To promote and extol the cultural values and spirit of honesty, integrity, hard work, courage in pioneering, and devotion to one’s roots encapsulated in “Qiaopi,” and to significantly enhance the influence and appeal of overseas Chinese culture, a press conference was held on April 24 in Shenzhen to announce the “Qiaopi: Journey of Ten Thousand Miles” tour. This event was guided by the China Overseas Chinese Federation and the Guangdong Overseas Chinese Federation, organized by the Publicity Department of the Zhuhai Municipal Committee and the Zhuhai Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese, and executed by the Zhuhai Performing Arts Group.
The press conference featured the presence of Guo Qihua, Deputy Minister of the Cultural Exchange Department of the China Overseas Chinese Federation. Also in attendance were Lin Kefeng, a senior inspector of the Guangdong Overseas Chinese Federation; Min Yuntong, Executive Deputy Minister of the Publicity Department of the Zhuhai Municipal Committee; Zhang Lili, member of the Party Group and Vice Chairman of the Zhuhai Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese; Chen Weian, Secretary of the Party Committee, and Zou Jianhong, General Manager of the Zhuhai Performing Arts Group. They provided an overview and responded to media inquiries.
Tumblr media
“Qiaopi,” a key cultural project of Guangdong province and Zhuhai’s first original national opera, is produced under the guidance of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism. It features a distinguished creative team including composer Meng Weidong, playwright Wang Yong, directors Liao Xianghong and Deng Yijiang, and conductors Zhu Man and Fan Jie, with performances by leading domestic artists such as singers Lü Wei, Li Yang, Li Bufan, and Dong Bin. Set against the backdrop of Tangjiawan in Zhuhai, the opera delves into the unique “Qiaopi” culture of the Lingnan region, weaving a profound historical narrative on stage that tells of the overseas Chinese renowned for their reliability and commitment.
Since its premiere at the 2nd Zhuhai Arts Festival in October 2022, the opera “Qiaopi” has been staged in cities such as Beijing, Chongqing, Macau, Hangzhou, Urumqi, Guangzhou, and Zhongshan, eliciting deep emotional responses from audiences. It has been selected for the National Culture and Tourism Ministry’s 2022–2023 “Chinese National Opera Heritage and Development Project” and has received various national and provincial awards, including the Outstanding Opera Award at the 5th China Opera Festival and the First Prize at the 15th Guangdong Arts Festival. The opera has also featured on significant cultural platforms such as the “Outstanding Stage Art Works Exhibition of the New Era” and Macau’s “Spring of Haojiang.”
At the press conference, Min Yuntong outlined the touring schedule, noting that from April 24 to May 15, the opera will visit key diaspora cities such as Shenzhen, Shantou, Xiamen, Ningbo, and Dongguan. Associated activities, tailored to each location, will include a concert version of “Qiaopi” at Ningbo University and visits to the Shantou Overseas Chinese Museum and Ningbo Commerce Museum, aimed at enhancing the cultural impact and resonance of overseas Chinese heritage.
Zou Jianhong, General Manager of Zhuhai Performing Arts Group, elaborated on the preparations for the tour and the opera’s creative process. The creative team, after extensive research and multiple revisions, has focused on authentically representing the protagonists’ inner worlds. With each performance, they carefully consider audience and expert feedback to refine the opera, aiming to create a lasting and influential work. Zou hopes that the tour will attract more domestic and overseas Chinese to theaters, using art as a bridge to convey the warmth and affinity of the motherland.
According to the touring schedule, the opera “Qiaopi” will debut at the Shenzhen Poly Theater on April 24, followed by performances at the Shantou Lin Baixin International Conference Exhibition Center on April 28, the Xiamen Jia Geng Theater on May 2, the Ningbo Grand Theater on May 6, and the Dongguan Yulan Grand Theater on May 15, bringing this heartfelt family letter across mountains and seas to audiences in each diaspora city.
