Zhang Miaoyi causes controversy with "Dream of the Red Chamber 2024"

The movie “A Dream of the Red Chamber” starring Zhang Miaoyi and Bian Cheng became a box office disaster in China. After 4 days of release, the movie only earned 4.2 million yuan, while the investment was up to 200 million yuan.

Not only did the film have low revenue, it also caused a lot of controversy about the content and appearance of the actors. In particular, the female lead Lin Daiyu, played by Zhang Miaoyi, was criticized for being unattractive, in poor condition, and unable to show the temperament of a beauty.

Through the shared images, Truong Mieu Di appeared with a swollen face and a bland appearance. The actress does not fit the image of a “beautiful woman”.

According to the audience, the star born in 1998 has a cute, youthful appearance but is not as sharp as many beauties in showbiz. The lines on Truong Mieu Di's face are commented to be normal, difficult to impress viewers.

Not only that, when the actress participated in “Hong Lou Meng Zhi Kim Ngoc Luong Duyen”, she was only 18 years old, without much experience or ability to control her expressions. Therefore, public opinion believes that director Hu Mai chose the wrong person to play the role of Lin Dai Yu.

Faced with negative public opinion, director Ho Mai spoke up to defend Truong Mieu Di, affirming that the actress was not ugly and was intentionally "splashed" by others.

The person behind “The Legend of Red Chamber” also argued with the audience, claiming that his 18 years of hard work was being undermined by others. Therefore, the film producer reported to the police, deciding to prosecute those who criticized and spread bad information about the film.

The incident immediately became a top search term on Weibo with a lot of discussion. Many people disagreed with director Hu Mei's statement. Coupled with Zhang Miaoyi's misinterpretation of Lin Daiyu's character, she was immediately attacked by many people.

Truong Mieu Di’s social media accounts were “defeated” by thousands of negative comments. Many people even said that the actress did not know her own limits and was too ambitious when accepting an “immortal” role on screen.

Currently, the noise related to “Hong Lou Meng Chi Kim Ngoc Luong Duyen” and Truong Mieu Di has not shown any signs of cooling down. Meanwhile, the box office revenue has not shown much progress, being one of the top “flops” of 2024.

Zhang Miaoyi was born in 1998 in Jiaxing, China. She participated in films such as “When You Run Towards Me”, “The Unique Fairy Tale”, “Please Don’t Pamper Me”, “Hard to Coax”, “Sweet Trap”, “The Reason I Returned to the Age of Seventeen”…
