On June 17th, Sina reported that screenwriter Meng Qiqi had apologized to Bai Lu for falsely accusing the actress of using her influence to change the screenwriting team for the drama "Mo Li ," causing Meng Qiqi's hard work to be wasted.
"I am Meng Qiqi, and I would like to apologize to Bai Lu. Due to the impact of the incident with the drama 'Phoenix Prisoner' many years ago, coupled with a change in communication with the main cast this time, I initially assumed that the script change was due to Bai Lu. After verifying from multiple sources, it is true that this matter is not related to Bai Lu. Therefore, I sincerely apologize to Bai Lu for the inconvenience and trouble caused. I hope everyone will remain rational and not believe or spread false rumors."
Following her apology, Meng Qiqi's account was banned from speaking out for making baseless accusations. According to Sina , Meng Qiqi was criticized for using her influence to publicly fabricate and spread false information, tarnishing Bai Lu's reputation and further escalating the conflict between Bai Lu's fans and those who dislike her.
Bai Lu later announced she was suing Meng Qiqi for making inaccurate judgments that damaged her reputation. Some also argued that the ban on Meng Qiqi speaking was too harsh a punishment. Some even suggested that Bai Lu used her hidden power to restrict Meng Qiqi's freedom of speech.
Previously, 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 still suspected that the actress's reputation and the drama's reputation were seriously affected.
Meng Qiqi's accusation put immense pressure on Bai Lu, as she had previously been criticized for unprofessional and disrespectful remarks towards her seniors on the show Keep Running, resulting in extremely low audience sentiment towards Mo Li .
The film's plot was criticized for lacking originality, with the motif of the female lead being ostracized by her family and the male and female leads "marrying before falling in love" appearing too frequently in historical dramas in recent years. Bai Lu's performance in "Mo Li" received much controversy. The actress was criticized for her outdated makeup and stiff acting.
The ongoing controversies have negatively impacted Mo Li 's performance. The popularity index of the character played by Bai Lu, as well as daily viewership, have fallen below expectations.
Bai Lu, born in 1994, is famous for her roles in television dramas such as *Zhao Yao*, *The Flame of War *, *Zhao Yao*, *Zhou Sheng Ru Gu*, *Chang Yue Jin Ming*, *Ning An Ru Meng*, etc.
