Wang Hedi Teams Up with Zhao Lusi: 'Love Between Fairy and Devil' CP Fans Furious, Threaten to Quit Fandom

25-year-old actor Wang Hedi made his debut by playing 'Dao Ming Si' in the Chinese version of 'Meteor Garden' and rose to fame with the xianxia drama 'Love Between Fairy and Devil,' securing his status as a top male star. Recently, he announced that he will hold a solo concert in Macau on the 17th and has invited Zhao Lusi as a special guest. After the news broke, some 'Love Between Fairy and Devil' CP fans, who view Zhao Lusi as a competitor to Yu Shuxin, voiced strong dissatisfaction with the collaboration and even threatened to quit the fandom.

After Wang Hedi announced the guest for his concert, many 'Dixin Yili' CP fans collectively broke down, declared they were quitting the fandom, stopped following him on super topics, and changed their profile pictures; some even posted '1250 days of companionship ends,' lamenting that their 'Love Between Fairy and Devil' fantasy was shattered. Some netizens felt that Wang Hedi was disregarding his early supporters and criticized him for 'betrayal.'

Reportedly, Wang Hedi and Zhao Lusi are both from Sichuan Province, have worked together in advertisements and variety shows multiple times, and have a good personal relationship; fans dub them the 'Sichuan-Chongqing Double A Duo.' There is various speculation from the public regarding this invitation: some believe it is meant to dilute Wang Hedi and Yu Shuxin's CP image, while others look forward to new sparks between the two high-profile entertainers on stage. Fans are calling for respect for the artists' choices.
