The CQL BTS is so priceless in so many ways and this segment has countless moments of note, but even by this point (in his career) GG was known for being an excellent scene partner, someone to learn from; very understanding and kind. And there’s an example of that during this sequence. It was the first day, things were awkward and new and when they talk at one point, DD apologizes for laughing, saying something about his previous experiences and GG immediately responded something like— It’s fine (understandable) to laugh. Laugh if you want (need) to laugh.
For some reason that stuck with me, just how encouraging he was and how comfortable and normal he made a moment some would have found a nuisance or an inconvenience.
It also made me think about how he approaches his work and his working relationship with others. I’m sure it’s a combination of personality and intent but I love how he creates safe spaces for the people around him.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT THE MOON AGAIN the bloody moon, the bloody bloody moon and actual blood moons please no....T_T
But Y13 was holding her art hostage for our tgcf fic so...here goes.
I refer you to XZ's collection of four cryptic images posted on 3 May 03:30 CST (screenshot from my phone shows my local time which is 7h behind):
There is a lot to unpack here, but the focus of this candy is on the timing of the Red Moon.
When was this Red Moon photographed?
Note: C-turtles keeeep calling this a blood moon but it is not related to the lunar eclipse, which actually occurred on 3 Mar, but what they're talking about is just a normal full moon that's red.
Very very unlikely it was on 2 Apr when XZ first arrived in Qingdao to start filming Ten Days to End. Because...heh... in a highly portentive manner for this supposed horror-type drama (where the MC also sees a blood moon when he arrives in Qingdao), XZ's arrival was accompanied by the Red Full Moon complete with dense fog, so the pictures we found ended up looking more like an apocalypse-type scene.
Also..why would you wait a whole month before posting such a pic? And then post it at 3:30am a month later?
So, let's rule that out right now. Not from 2 Apr.
The other possibility is that he took this pic on 2 May. HOWEVER. and correct me if i'm wrong. A red moon only appears when the moon is rising or setting, and the light has to pass through a thicker layer of atmosphere, so most of the blue light is refracted away before reaching us. Hence, red moon. But XZ doesn't finish work till super late on 2 May, (~2:30am, essentially 3 May already), so he must have taken the pic during work on 2 May?
OK...BUT there's another problem. Others on the web began noting that the moon wasn't red in Qingdao on 2 May or even 1 May. They claim that the first red moon pics only started appearing around 4 or 5 May.
So...did I go and verify this?
Yes, of course I did. Scoured Weibo and RedNote. The earliest I found was 3 May evening.
Many were on 4th or 5th, and by then the moon was already fairly obvious gibbous and not full.
NOTE that XZ posted his pic at the wee hours of 3 May, which means he essentially took the picture on or before the evening of 2 May.
Remember that people were already buzzing from XZ arriving in Qingdao in the foggy glow of a red moon, and I keep seeing pictures from all over China of red moons, and them saying ooo I caught the red moon too. And if there was a red moon on 2 May, you can BET that it'd be alllll over the web.
SO where did XZ's picture come from?
Hur hur.... firstly, do we know where WYB was during those days?
I rmb rampant unrelated rumours at that time of him being sighted rock climbing in Southern France somewhere, and he did indeed disappear for a while.
Do you know where else the Red Moon appeared?
hur hur.... C-turtles suddenly realised there was also a Red Full Moon in Europe around 1 and 2 May based on tourist pics. And I did try my best to verify this. (I know i know i'm in europe but like it rains so much where I am...can't even see the moon)
See below an Insta pic showing the red moon on 2 May in Nice, France; a RedNote pic saying the red moon was taken on 1 May in Nice, France; and a BBC article about the red full moon, but in Sicily. There were various other pics and places too, but yes, red full moons (flower moons) were sighted around Europe and definitely in France.
All the above were unrelated to turtles.
Unsurprising then the notion that it was WYB who took a pic of the red moon began circulating, and only quite some time after the fact. The timing of XZ's post fits well with this theory. At 3:30am in China, the time is 9:30pm in France, and the moon rises around that time too (~8:45pm). Hence, the hurry to post right after he finished work at that ungodly hour (hubby sent awesome pic!!!).
So then, to me, suddenly the two moons make sense. One was taken by WYB (the red moon) and the other could have been taken by XZ where he was, at around the same time (the yellow moon). Two people apart but looking at the same moon. Note also that the yellow moon actually has a greenish tinge to it which !!!!!! gar... The Symmetry!!
This is further supported by the baffling sizes of the images. Red Moon is 18kb, less than half the size of Yellow Moon (40kb) and Bird Feet (56kb), and way way smaller than Rock in Sea (319kb). Red Moon could have been severely compressed when it was sent via a messaging app.
By someone rock climbing in the south of France perhaps?
And since we're the spelunkers, I would like to propose a further, perhaps outlandish, notion based solely on XZ's liking of symmetry (we know how ocd he gets right?)
What's up with Bird Feet and Rock in Sea? They can't be arbitrary. Given that the two moons seem to suggest that they were doing the same thing at the same time, i.e. looking at the same moon. HAHA...I would like to propose that XZ used the other two pics to suggest the different things they were doing at the same time. So Bird Feet might be a pic he took trapped inside somewhere while filming, coz it appears to me to be a transparent roof of some sort that the bird is standing on. And Rock In Sea might be him saying, YOU SEE, while I'm trapped here, toiling away, earning us money, THAT GUY is out there somewhere having fun, climbing some random rock by the sea! (but maybe in a more loving tone XD)
Wouldn't that be so artistically symmetrical!!! And make this cryptic compilation of images make more sense??!!!
Ah well.......i wish i had real answers, but there you are...suffer in limbo hell with me...blame Y13 she insisted we dive. these speculations are a very high price to pay for one little tweak in her art work she is cruel.
Attention is usually drawn to DD and his reactions or fond expressions toward GG (rightfully so) but DD’s 😍 always made me pay even closer attention to GG. Because I tend to believe when there’s that amount of adoration ebbing from one person to another, it’s well deserved. And GG has this inner steeliness, that’s sassy and sarcastic and he’s so domineering at times it’s palpable.
It's nice, the way you say my name
Not very fast or slow, just soft and low
The same as when you tell me how you feel
I feel the same way, too
I'm very much in love with you
💛.
Bless the Telephone is a song by Labi Siffre. It's said he wrote the song after receiving a call from his boyfriend (later husband), Peter Lloyd, while he was in a hotel room after a gig. To capture the immediate warmth and tenderness he felt following the long-distance call, Labi wrote this song. 🥲
For me, it's impossible not to think about 晚安 Bonne Nuit's lyrics. In my mind, when GG sings...
别说了 天都快亮了 Don't say more, it's almost dawn
谢谢你 送我的温暖 Thank you for the warmth you gave me
别说了 天都快亮了 Don't say more, it's almost dawn
谢谢你 送我的晚安 Thank you for the "good night" you gave me
...I instantly imagine him talking to DD on the phone until dawn, both alone (and perhaps lonely) in their respective hotel rooms, and how much a single call must warm their hearts and souls until they meet again. 🥹

it’s always been funny to me when so/os are quick to say “xx is using xxx” and vice versa as an explanation for a candy. i swear they are more sensitive to cpns than us. they seem to know all the lore, cause obvs, they are obssessed with reading the posts we make for some reason. instead of idk, minding their own business. lol.
it’s not rocket science. we see the symbolism and we’re happy. that’s it, end of story. for example with GG’s recent ad where he was driving alongside a green car. we know who the master car racer is that’s so popular — WYB ; so it’s a connection to his husband’s sport. and GG is in his signature red, tho i see it as pink, i think it’s marketed as electro purple/pink. green and red, two colors that we love and also represents lrlg in fake stories. driving through snowy mountains. through deserts that look like where WYB would do some climbing. etc.
yay! that’s coincidence candy! 🙌🏻
but at the same time we (cpfs) are well aware that xz has little do with picking the color. if you look at the weibo account of shangjie, those two colors red/green have always been highlighted in promo posts. way before GG was announced. there are 10 colors but the 2 were the ones that were initially available to pre order last March.
also, it’s not that GG was trying to be a race car driver like WYB. the product is a car. the hell was he supposed to do with it? 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
i wasn’t really into this candy but seeing the reaction from some people — well, i’m now convinced 😂😂😂😂

another month has gone by! it was a kinda quiet time cpn-wise for the fandom — not to say we did not have candies to enjoy, but i think this is expected as years go by. and of course, we always have content from the boys. same drill. i will be doing a recap of the stuff that was talked about in clowning circles!
• there were some serious clowning going on related to GG’s post on 5/3. aside from us being so sensitive when it comes to posts with the 🌙, i think the detective work has some points. if you don’t buy it, that’s fine, i just love how the 🌙 has become a thing in this fandom and a symbol or romance and longing.
here is the source. OP is saying that it’s a rumor. especially on WYB’s schedule. because his is not public.
tldr: XZ, as the only artist on the internet to post photos of the "red full moon in Qingdao in April-May," is suspected of using photos taken by Wang Yibo abroad.
First, a simple explanation of the formation of a "red moon" (Figure 1), and a key point—the atmosphere scatters red light when the moon is rising or setting, requiring a high concentration of water vapor or dust in the atmosphere. Qingdao and Yibo's location, both at similar latitudes, meet the light scattering condition of being "by the sea."
Observing this photo further, it can be seen that this is a full moon phase on the 15th or 16th day of the first lunar month, appearing reddish and slightly shriveled in the low sky (Figure 2). The possible shooting time corresponds to April 2-3 or May 1-2.
So, did Xiao Zhan have the conditions to photograph this "reddish full moon in a clear Qingdao sky"?
If April 2: There was strong advection fog that day, resulting in low visibility (Figure 3).
If April 3: There was heavy rain that night (Figure 4).
If May 1 or 2: Xiao Zhan's off-work times were 22:43 and 3:00 AM respectively, while the moonrise times on those two days were 18:32 and 19:33 respectively. Assuming the moon is reddish one hour after moonrise, Xiao Zhan was still filming at that time (Figure 5).
The tree shadow in the picture appears to be a dwarf pine, which mostly grows by the sea or on mountains, essentially ruling out the possibility of it being shot in a studio.
Meanwhile, no photos of the red moon in Qingdao on May 1st have been found online, raising doubts about whether such a celestial phenomenon actually occurred that day.
If at other times ➡️ as mentioned earlier, the moon phase begins to wane from the 17th, which doesn't match the full moon posted by Xiao Zhan. (Figure 6)
Therefore, the answer is obvious: he didn't have the conditions to take this photo.
According to Wang Yibo's rumored itinerary, he was abroad in late April and early May, in a famous hiking destination. So, could he have taken this photo of the moon?
1. According to tourist feedback, a clear red moon appeared in the area during the May Day holiday, and the weather was clear on May 1st and 2nd, providing excellent shooting conditions. (Figure 7)
2. This photo is only 18kb in size, making it unlikely to be a direct output from a camera or phone. Verification suggests it was most likely taken with a camera, quickly transferred to a phone, then transmitted via WeChat, and cropped to enlarge the moon. If Xiao Zhan took the photo himself, why go through such complicated steps? (Figure 8)
3. Comparing it to the local moon phase provides a very intuitive similarity. (Figure 9)
4. There are also dwarf pine trees in the area, and they grow in many wild climbing areas. (Figure 10)
In conclusion, Wang Yibo has sufficient conditions to photograph this moon.
By the way, Xiao Zhan's other moon, this green light bulb with the characteristics of a mobile phone camera (Figure 11), is also a full moon. Perhaps that night, when Xiao Zhan looked up and missed his lover in a foreign country, he also thought of "sharing this moment across the world".
When analyzing this moon, I was peeling back the layers with the attitude of digging into a relationship, but it wasn't until writing this article that I was belatedly shocked by a kind of magnificent love.
The sentence from 20 years ago, "I want to take a picture of the moon for you, but it never comes out", seems to have been settled into a promise by the years. Whether it is the Mid-Autumn Festival moon or the moon across time zones, Wang Yibo has been practicing "clumsy romance" year after year.
It turns out that the time you love each other can be referenced by the moon.
If a kind of romance can remain unchanged across years, then it is love as enduring as the moon.
• 18 x 38 x 23 tod’s collaboration bag measurement as explained by @rainbowsky here. TBH, i get why people got all excited with the numbers! we are all so sensitive with that! to me, it’s more of a coincidence than an intentional decision.
• li ning x bottled joy. lol. why is bottled joy always at the scene of the crime? 😂😂😂
• Sharing this really sweet write up about BJYX ✨
How can I describe to you that BJYX is more than just one summer?
It's the last event related to the drama, the two of them standing side by side but not daring to look at each other, their eyes brimming with tears; it's the countless words unspoken in a single glance across the crowd after the storm; it's the kite string that flies high and low, a delicate necklace given by a lover; it's the day he left the variety show that was like a university of life, when he, at thirty, said that people's dreams never end, sharing "shining adults"; it's the song "Nanhai" that he sang with all his might even when drunk and off-key after the new drama wrapped up; it's the numbered seat number that I would still tear up for you despite the rumors six years later; it's the couple fans holding up wedding photo signs and receiving their tacit approval and sweet smiles at various occasions...
This is what you see as strangers, but this is what truly belongs to Bo Jun Yi Xiao's "nothing else"—there will never be another pair like this.
Now it's the seventh year since the "purification" was done. Do you really think that just adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing can retain so many people? People are curious about the secret to the product's longevity while using the analogy of tortoise shell candy and tortoise knife to belittle it. But if you understand a little, you'll find that you're wrong. There's no sea of hatred and love here, no male or female ghosts, no rotten people with true hearts. There are only two idiots smiling at each other and then embracing.
i really liked this one cause with all the hate we get and people deliberately misunderstanding us and what we stand for — it’s good to see it worded like this. it’s not that complicated. we just love these two idiots who are in love. we support them.

What I always enjoy about “the moon” analysis is: 1) the research and effort
2) how much I learn about the moon itself and what’s possible. What was going on while I clearly wasn’t paying attention
3) also highlights why studying and watching the moon is so fascinating and worth study or low key admiration [even by our two idiots in love]
4) I have to agree with how these shared phases and photos have become a symbol of romance and whimsy in the fandom. How they spark creativity from poetry to art, even sound, and in many ways cause us to pause briefly and breathe. Not just “consuming candy” but taking time to embrace the wonder around us.
5) This fandom brings together all types of people, from all over who support and appreciate two individuals equally. What I like the most about that is it began because of their great admiration of one another. Their connection, connected us. Their interests develop ideas and blossom into conversations and experiences throughout the fandom around the world without some of us ever speaking a word to one another. This isn’t always good in fandoms (from what I gather), but in this one, it is refreshing and fun.
I think one of the gentlest things in the world is when a friend just gets your weird little brain. like you say half a sentence and they finish it. you reference something incredibly niche from seven years ago and they’re already nodding. they understand your strange vocabulary for emotions that don’t have real words yet. it’s being seen and known and still loved. maybe especially because you’re known. god. what a gift.
sharing the post match interview part from the 2026 china GT video by unoracin. his mindset is in the right place when it comes to the sport and competitions. he is in it for the right reason. and like everything else, he is in competition with himself. in this race. and in all parts of his career and his life.
i also like the part where they were talking about the penalty handed to car 85 and how WYB handled it like a pro. 💯After receiving the penalty, Wang Yibo returned to the track. Satisfactorily, he wasn't greatly affected by the penalty; he remained steady and calm during his second lap.

Faced with this level of chaotic competition, he not only remained calm and composed, but also held onto his position and seized the opportunities he needed.
Many people who watch racing these past few years have been watching with a label attached (to Wang Yibo), but on the track, there are no labels, only speed; fast is fast, slow is slow. And in this race, his performance was definitely above average.
i encourage you guys to watch the whole thing! great insights on what happened ✌🏼
