Acting controversy
Page 163 reported that in recent days, as Bai Lu's historical drama aired, the actress born in 1994 became embroiled in a new wave of controversy.
Historical dramas are a familiar theme for Bai Lu, an actress who has made her mark with dramas such as "Zhou Sheng Ru Gu," "Chang Yue Jin Ming," "Ning An Ru Meng," "Bai Yue Fan Xing," "Lin Jiang Xian," and "Tang Palace Qi An" ...
The drama "Mạc Ly" aired at a time when Bai Lu was being criticized for her unprofessional and disrespectful remarks towards her seniors on the show "Keep Running." Therefore, audience sentiment towards this work was not high. The plot was considered unoriginal, and the motif of the female lead being ostracized by her family and the male and female leads "marrying before falling in love" had appeared too many times in historical dramas in recent years.
Bai Lu's performance in "Mo Li" has sparked much controversy. The actress has been criticized for her outdated makeup and stiff acting.

Bai Lu received a lot of feedback on her acting. |
According to QQ , Bai Lu's weaknesses in acting were revealed in her previous films. In "The Moon Shines Brightly, " after 3 years, Bai Lu has not improved.
It's clear that the actress hasn't done enough research to portray the character. QQ suggests this is a lack of originality.
The drama "Mo Li" did not achieve promising results upon its release. The popularity index of the character played by Bai Lu ranked 5th, even lower than the character played by Liu Haocun, despite the drama "The Main Character" having already ended. "Mo Li" garnered 12 million views on its first day, but only reached 20 million on the second day, showing no significant increase.
Chinese media consider the airing of dramas as a time for artists to regain audience favor. For example, Zhao Lusi and Liu Haocun, who were once involved in numerous controversies, saw their reputations significantly improve when their dramas achieved good results.
Bai Lu is currently embroiled in a scandal for allegedly showing favoritism towards producers, leading to disrespectful behavior on the show Keep Running. Her drama, Mo Li, aired with the hope of dispelling public negative perceptions, but it failed to do so. In fact, Bai Lu's reputation has suffered even more.

Under investigation
With her new drama failing to achieve positive results, Bai Lu is embroiled in controversy over her "National Artist" title. Specifically, at the end of 2024, Bai Lu received the title of National Level III Actress, a highly significant honor not achieved by every artist. However, viewers have investigated and found that the process for awarding this title to Bai Lu was fraught with issues.
Accordingly, the actress did not meet the educational requirements; she only graduated from a college, while to be granted a Level III Actress certificate, an artist must have a master's degree in a related field. They must also be a Level IV national actress and have at least four years of work experience. Bai Lu was not a Level IV actress, her application process was not public, and her professional achievements were unclear, yet she was granted the title of Level III national actress, raising many questions.
Viewers have repeatedly demanded an investigation into the process of awarding Bai Lu her title, calling for its revocation if any irregularities are found, and for those involved to be held accountable to ensure fairness and transparency in the workplace.

When the drama "Mo Li" first aired, screenwriter Meng Qiqi accused Bai Lu of using her influence to replace the screenwriting team right before filming began. Although many colleagues later spoke out in defense of Bai Lu, viewers remained skeptical.
Viewers are questioning why Jiangsu Cultural Investment Group, a frequent investor in projects starring Bai Lu, such as "Honorary Police," "Love for Business," "North and Up," and the recently aired drama " Mo Li, " might be the powerful entity backing Bai Lu's career.
