GJ and ZZH Updates — September 17-23

previous week || all posts || following week

This is part of a weekly series collecting updates from and relating to Gong Jun and Zhang Zhehan.

This post is not wholly comprehensive and is intended as an overview, links provided lead to further details. Dates are in accordance with China Standard Time, the organization is chronological. My own biases on some things are reflected here. Anything I include that is not concretely known is indicated as such, and you’re welcome to do your own research and draw your own conclusions as you see fit. Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or additions. :)

[Glossary of names and terms] [Masterlist of my posts about the situation with Zhang Zhehan]

09-17 → MYFM hosted a video interview with one of the Zhang Zhehan impersonators. Addition 10-01: One of the jokes he told was directly copying one Gong Jun told in a livestream on 2022-11-05.

→ Hogan posted a promotional video spoken by Gong Jun announcing his attendance at Milan Fashion Week. They later posted four photos of Gong Jun in New York.

→ The scam concert in Kuala Lumpur was held. - In photos posted by fans attending, the venue looked to be less than half full at the time in started. Photos later released by the scam gang have the audience photoshopped to look larger than the venue even allowed for. - Zhang Sanjian wore a very cheap looking copy of the white Zhou Zishu robes Zhang Zhehan wore during the Word of Honor concert. (Also a reminder that the original robes were given away in a raffle after the WOH concert.) - [Here] is my post about the Bangkok concerts if you would like to revisit it, this one was much of the same.

→ Gong Jun posted 51 photos of himself getting to act like a tourist in New York. Caption: "Update world favourites." He also posted eight to his Instagram, caption: "Lost in New York" (originally in English) and sixteen to his Xiao Hong Shu, caption: "Did you see it?? I'm in New York", with both of these latter posts including a couple photos not in his Weibo post. Fan Observations: - The IP on the both the Weibo and Xiao Hong Shu posts are Beijing. It was posted while Gong Jun was on his flight to Milan, so presumably they was posted by someone other than Gong Jun himself; if he was using in-flight wifi, there's no logical reason for the IP to be Beijing. Gong Jun has said before that he does not let staff manage his personal accounts. - The Weibo post was also made shortly after the KL concert started. Consider again the "Did you see it??" XHS caption: Gong Jun is in New York, someone he trusts is in Beijing. [record of timestamps] - (Because I'm a nerd,) the statues Gong Jun took pictures with at the Met are Andromeda and the Sea Monster, Sappho, Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux at Work, and The Martyr.

→ Gong Jun's studio posted nine more photos of him in New York. Caption: "Traveling through the city corners, every moment is a moment worth recording~ Collect the world with @ Gong Jun Simon🏙️"

09-18 → Gong Jun reposted a post by CCTV in memory of the Mukden Incident. Added caption: "Don’t forget the shame of the past, we should strengthen ourselves!" His studio did the same, added caption: "Don’t forget history, the alarm bells are ringing!"

09-19 → Net-A-Porter posted a teaser for the commercial featuring Gong Jun that would be released the following day.

09-20 → Zhang Sanjian was filmed at Heathrow airport, because he always needs to fail horribly at trying to one-up Gong Jun.

→ Gong Jun posted the Fox Spirit trailer. Caption: "Coming from Tushan, carrying the idea of ​​equality for all living beings, has compassion for the world, and breaks the prejudice of different paths." His studio reposted this with the added caption, "A sincere voice and a thought of reincarnation. See Tushan resolve disputes and express love."

BGM is Are You Ready for Me Baby by Funky Giraffe.

09-22 → Gong Jun posted sixty-four photos of Milan. Caption: "While on a business trip, take some time out from your busy schedule to continue updating your world favourites!" He later posted fourteen of these to his Xiao Hong Shu, caption: "You'll never guess! I took a walk around Milan and want to go back to China to eat hotpot" and eight to his Instagram, caption: "Stroll in Milano" (originally in English)

Xiao Chu's husband's company was recently sued 100k for her failure to deliver scripts, which definitely gives reason for them to be desperate for another source of income...

→ Hogan posted six photos of Gong Jun in Milan. (1129 kadian) They later posted another three.

→ 361° posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun, announcing a livestream with him later that day.

→ T Magazine released the cover of the new issue featuring Gong Jun. Caption: "The poet Margaret Avison said, "No one puts the world into your eyes. The visual heart must take risks." The subtext of this sentence is that even if we are just "watching", we are actively choosing. Seeing, experiencing, imagining, or "recreating" in a new way is an "adventure" that everyone can and should achieve. And the voice that belongs to life is awakened and activated in such adventures again and again. How do you watch @ Gong Jun Simon ? How does he reflect on himself? In this month’s Men’s Autumn and Winter Fashion Special, actor Gong Jun gives the answer visually." His studio reposted this with the added caption, "Filling time and space, collaging new ideas. @ Gong Jun Simon shows off his charming style casually."

Half an hour later, they posted the full photoshoot.

GJ and ZZH Updates — January 8-14

<<< previous week || all posts || following week >>> 

This is part of a weekly series collecting updates from and relating to Gong Jun and Zhang Zhehan.

This post is not wholly comprehensive and is intended as an overview, links provided lead to further details. Dates are in accordance with China Standard Time, the organization is chronological. My own biases on some things are reflected here. Anything I include that is not concretely known is indicated as such, and you’re welcome to do your own research and draw your own conclusions as you see fit. Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or additions. :)

[Glossary of names and terms] [Masterlist of my posts about the situation with Zhang Zhehan]

01-08 → Colgate posted photos of fans next to their cutout of Gong Jun, with an equal amount of both solo fans and CP fans shown (including a CPF with “junzhe” written in large letters on her bag.)

01-09 → MARRSGREEN posted a promotional video spoken by Gong Jun.

→ Legend of AnLe passed government review with 39 episodes, which got on hotsearch. It can be expected to air soon! 

→ Colgate posted photos showing public displays of their ad featuring Gong Jun.

→ 361° posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun.

01-10 → New regulations on AI generated images went into effect in China, requiring users to clearly watermark things like deepfakes and AI art to make it clear that that’s what they are. Unfortunately given that the Instagram is a) on an international platform and b) already criminal activity in the first place, this likely won’t help us here.

→ Calendars with white haired photos that the brand gave as gifts with purchases of over 850 RMB were shipped. On them, Wednesday was abbreviated as “WEN” and the dates were organized into rows of ten rather than weeks. 🤡 [photo] This resulted in infighting between whalers on Weibo about a (better quality) fan-made calendar which was given away for free by lottery, with some fans attacking it as “competition” against the official one despite it only being given away after sales had closed. Members of the scam ring were involved in instigating this.

→ The China Police official Weibo posted a promotional picture of Gong Jun, among a number of other celebrities, paying tribute to the third People's Police Festival. Gong Jun reposted this with the added caption: “The home that some people can’t stay in is the place you want to return to but are unable to. Ahead is difficult and dangerous, keeping the people behind you. Thank you for confronting danger! January 10th is the third #People’s Police Festival#, join me in paying tribute to the People’s Police!”

→ 361° posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun. (1129 kadian)

→ An article about the recent songs was published on Medium, giving an objective summary about the rapid rising and falling on music charts and addressing the concerns about whether Zhang Zhehan is involved. This is an article that was previously published on What’s On Weibo on 01-02 but taken down less than 24 hours later; it now includes more detailed research and overall has a more skeptical air to it. (Thank you for your work Ms. Chu, it’s very appreciated 🙏)

→ The Instagram posted ten travel photos.  Fan Observation: The last one seems to be an attempt to imitate the photo Gong Jun posted on 12-17 of the person in a hoodie taking a photo. 

→ Hogan tweeted three photos from Gong Jun’s Wonderland photoshoot highlighting their shoes.

→ Charlotte Tilbury posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun.

01-11 → Colgate posted a promotional video spoken by Gong Jun.

→ Gong Jun posted eight travel photos from Yunnan and a photo from the filming of Fox Spirit Matchmaker to his personal Weibo. Caption: “Some remaining film fragments​​​​” An hour later he also posted seven of these plus an additional one to Xiao Hong Shu, caption: “Shock!  Didn’t realize, there was still stock!” and four plus another additional one to Instagram, caption: “😏” 

→ #GongJun trended on Twitter.

→ 2022 satellite non-prime TV rankings were released, with Gong Jun’s shows Dream Garden and Begin Again in the two highest spots respectively.

→ Honor posted a promotional video spoken by Gong Jun.

→ QuelleVous made a post linking Da Xiong (Gong Jun’s manager)’s current Weibo marketing account, where she has been leaking industry information in the same manner as on her previous account since 2022-04-06. These leaks include information about Gong Jun and Fox Spirit Matchmaker, and at the time of this post her most recent post was only a few hours ago.

01-12 → Esquire posted a teaser video featuring Gong Jun for their January issue. (1129 kadian) Caption: Before the lens focuses  he was already ready  What about you?” A few seconds of behind the scenes footage from this was leaked a couple days earlier, I will not be linking it.

→ The Instagram posted six more travel photos.

→ The clothing brand A BIG THANKS posted photos of Gong Jun wearing their coat.

01-13 → Esquire posted the double covers for their issue featuring Gong Jun. (1129 kadian) Caption: “Only those who have really traveled far will be grateful for every inch of land and their own feet. Compared with the past, @ Gong Jun Simon cares more about the future.” This was reposted by Gong Jun’s studio with the added caption, “The ripples are quiet, reflecting the willful reflection. Boss @ Gong Jun Simon releases inspiration in the camera, and everything can be traced.” It was also reposted by Hogan. (1129)

Half an hour later, Esquire also posted another teaser video. Caption: “‘I hope everyone can see a different side of me’, @ Gong Jun Simon has said this sentence many times, and he has done it.”

→ Colgate posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun.

→ Gong Jun’s studio posted a video (flashing lights cw) of behind the scenes footage from the photoshoot. Caption: “The snapshots float, and move willfully. Boss @ Gong Jun Simon encounters the true self and enjoys every moment of freedom.” BGM is Como tu by Cannabeats, Zona Infame, and Klibre.

→ Esquire posted eight photos from their photoshoot with Gong Jun. Caption: “For @ Gong Jun Simon, growth is about seeing the gap between reality and ideal, and then working hard to close it.”

→ Gong Jun posted both of the Esquire covers and four of the photos. Caption: “This is the first time I’ve tried a long curly hairstyle, hope you like it, thanks to @ Esquire” Esquire reposted this with the added caption, “Happy cooperation! ❤️❤️❤️ Looking forward to unlocking more new looks with Esquire in the future [3 shiba inu emojis]” Gong Jun also posted the photos to his Xiao Hong Shu, caption: “Anyway I think  It looks pretty good! 😛” and as two posts [here] and [here] to his Instagram, captions: “😜😜😜” and “Wuhu, looks good”

→ Hogan posted six of the Esquire photos highlighting their shoes.

→ The Instagram posted a clip of the third song.

→ Gong Jun’s studio posted twelve behind the scenes photos from the shoot. Caption: “Boss @ Gong Jun Simon’s filming break is broadcasting 📸” They commented on the post, “Make up a colour” with a full colour photo of one of the photos rendered in monochrome in the main post.

→ Gong Jun’s studio posted a douyin of more behind the scenes footage. Caption: “Today's ‘set diary’! Capturing the willful and comfortable boss @ Gong Jun Simon under the camera” The BGM is a slowed reverb remix of the Ian Asher mashup of One Kiss by Dua Lipa and I Was Never There by The Weeknd (this took me so long to find, please listen ot it.)

→ Gong Jun was seen doing a photoshoot at Universal Studios Beijing, where he also watched the parade they were holding.

→ The Muses account (associated with Xie Yihua) posted an official statement discouraging fans from using the previous tactics to inflate sales activity, claiming that they had never encouraged this. (Bullshit.) They also made a post announcing the title Deep Blue Man for the album these songs will be compiled in. Fan Observation: Zhang Zhehan has always previously been associated with light blue. Them explicitly using dark blue is likely another intended smear, as the colour is associated with Kuomintang political party.

→ 361° posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun.

01-14 → #TheRealZhangZhehan trended on Twitter, staying there for over twelve hours.

→ The third song was released on YouTube and later Apple Music and Spotify. Fan Observation: It was noticed that comments from some familiar names (whalers) were made on the video six hours before it was posted. This can be done by initially posting the video privately and giving people the link, which results in the view and comment counts reflecting the actions by those with the link so it looks like the video is more immediately popular than it truly is once it’s made public. It’s therefore highly suspected that whalers were given the link specifically with this aim.

→ #GongJun trended on Twitter.

→ Esquire posted a video featuring Gong Jun. (1129 kadian) [subbed video] Caption: “Looking back on 2022, @ Gong Jun Simon said: ‘You can only make the best choice at the moment. Now that the choice is over, the rest will be handed over[.] Let time prove it, there is no regret, everything is good.’”

→ 361° posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun. (1129 kadian)

→ MUJOSH posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun. (1129 kadian) They later posted a behind the scenes video. (flashing lights cw)

→ QuelleVous made a post revealing which of Xie Yihua’s people is the one behind the Muses account (Zhao Yao).* A few hours later the account made a post saying it would no longer be active in order to “give Zhehan more focus.” *When I’ve included stuff about this account in the past, I believe I’ve usually just referred to it as Xie Yihua. I apologize for the mistake. 

→ Kangshifu posted a photo ad featuring Gong Jun.

→ Gong Jun posted nine photos from visiting Universal Studios Beijing the previous day. Caption: “Played all day hahahahahahahaha [three husky emojis]” This was reposted by MUJOSH highlighting their glasses. He also posted the photos to his Xiao Hong Shu, caption: “Happy New Year  🐼” and his Instagram, caption: “wuhu～”

→ An interview with BRTV that Gong Jun did for their Spring Festival Gala was released. [subbed video]

→ Gong Jun’s studio posted nine more photos from Universal Studios Beijing, these all of Gong Jun in Harry Potter robes. Caption: “Boss @ Gong Jun Simon's surprise trip, a day immersed in adventure and ‘wow’!” This was again reposted by MUJOSH.

→ 361° posted two photo ads featuring Gong Jun.

→ Esquire posted the article of their interview with Gong Jun. [partial translation]

→ CAPA updated their website, now including a list of their main leaders and subcommittees (aka a step towards more transparency.) It’s possible that this was something they were ordered to do rather than something they did voluntarily, but at this time that is only speculation.

Addition 01-16: Chinese film report posted a video of Gong Jun writing a blessing for the new year. [written translation]
