It's NOT fair PD Gao. Do NOT blog kickass hot stills of my AILF (ahjusshi I'd like to...fangirl) right next to a guy I'm not attracted to at all....till NOW.
And I do not wish to look forward to drama very desperately like counting down the days when my Binnie will be discharged. The WHEN can be a year, hundreds of days or MORE. I hate hate hate waiting for anything, much less sth I am coveting every drop of it. And I'm still definitely ANGRY I'm not getting my ChenDM/ChenJianBing most glorious clothes/rags-a-flying ahjusshi lovehate bromance....but Peter, I'll give u a chance, prove me VERY wrong.
PD Gao wrote character descriptions for his LiuBang and XiangYu:
刘邦是中国历史上个性最为复杂的帝王之一,以布衣之身提三尺剑而取得天下建立大汉基业,期间遭遇无数险阻和人情变故,可谓是“九死一生”,他果敢睿智却又狡黠阴柔,知人善用却又心中藏疑,总是有一场纠葛在心中羁绊着,而我希望这个人物通过道明老师的诠释,可以淋漓尽致的展现他帝王之身的另一面,“汉皇千古一英雄,休笑当年马上功。试问后来为帝者,谁人曾出范围中。”
LB is one of the most conflicting emperor in the history of China. A lowly commoner by birth, with a normal sword 3 ft long, he conquered the entire country and laid the foundation for the great Han dynasty. He's experienced tremendous trepidations and numerous human betrayals, 'surviving 9 deaths'. He's bold and wise yet cunning and conniving, had a sharp eye for talents, yet never trusting. It's as if his mind was a constant battlefield of manipulation. I am wishing this character, through the interpretation of MasterChen, can be shown in another light as The emperor we've known.
PD Gao ended with a quote of a Qing poem praising the Han emperor: The Han King was a hero, one in a thousand year, few could match his vigor and prowess. Let us ask the emperors following his footsteps, who can surpass the bounds he laid?
On Peter's XiangYu:
《楚汉传奇》中的项羽虽和《三国》中的吕布都称得上是天下第一猛将,也都有爱美人不爱江山的千古绝唱,不同的是,吕布虽有虓虎之勇,而无英奇之略,是个轻狡反复,唯利是视之人;而项羽勇武古今无双,在汹涌澎湃的的反秦浪潮中,他犹如一条巨龙,在江海中腾挪跳跃、叱咤风云,上演着一幕又一幕撼人心魄的壮举。
Both XiangYu in and LuBu in <3 Kingdoms> were renowned as the number 1 warrior of their times, both of them are revered in history for abandoning political power for love of their lives. Their difference is in , although LB had the bravery of a formidable warrior, he possessed no mind of a strategist. He lacked the moral compass for loyalty, with myopic vision of short minor gains instead of the long run, bigger picture. XiangYu was a warrior almost unmatched, he's roared and ruled the land in the uprising against Qin, performing deeds that are still fascinating generations to come.

No ChuHan contention rambling can skip the comparing of the LBs and XYs, and if I MUST thank 'PD/writer' YuZ for one thing is always tickling my funny bone every time I see MingDao...for the rest of my life..
