Kapanlagi.com - The fantasy costume Chinese drama titled A Beautiful Destiny suddenly becomes the center of attention. This iQIYI project, which has been eagerly awaited from the start, is reported to have failed to move into the production stage after an internal conflict regarding the lead actor's position emerged. This issue is said to be the trigger for actress Li Landi withdrawing from the project.
The news of the postponement of A Beautiful Destiny quickly became a hot topic on social media. This is because the drama was initially touted as a major project with a combination of popular actors and a promising fantasy story. However, before the cameras could start rolling, the project came to a halt.
1. Billing Dispute Becomes Trigger for Problems

According to reports from Chinese media, the main issue that led to the suspension of A Beautiful Destiny is the billing position dispute between the two main actors planned, Ding Yuxi and Li Landi. Initially, both actors were promised to appear on equal terms or pingfan, which means their roles and credits were aligned.
However, the situation changed when the production team decided to place Ding Yuxi as the first lead actor. Meanwhile, Li Landi was instead referred to as a special guest star and was ranked third after the second male lead. This change sparked dissatisfaction and was cited as the main reason for Li Landi's decision to withdraw.
2. Leaked Internal Documents Spark Fan Protests

The situation escalated after leaked internal documents surfaced, showing a change in the cast's position. The leak quickly spread and triggered strong protests from Li Landi's fans. They believe the production team has violated the initial agreement that was mutually approved.
Many fans also accuse the production team of favoring Ding Yuxi to maintain the commercial appeal of the drama. Moreover, Ding Yuxi's popularity is considered to still have a strong market base, even though the performance of his latest project has not been very satisfying.
3. Rumors About Yang Yang Being a Candidate for the Main Role

Adding to the heated situation, another rumor emerged stating that the male lead role was initially offered to Yang Yang. However, after Yang Yang declined the offer, the position was ultimately given to Ding Yuxi. This change is said to have influenced the marketing strategy and the cast structure in the drama A Beautiful Destiny.
Although there has been no official confirmation from the production team, this series of rumors has led the public to believe that the project has been problematic since the early planning stages.
4. Li Landi is Gaining Popularity Thanks to Coroner's Diary

In the midst of conflicting news about Li Landi's withdrawal, many fans are actually giving full support. Li Landi's popularity is indeed at its peak thanks to the success of the drama Coroner's Diary, in which she stars alongside Ao Ruipeng.
A solid acting performance and positive audience response make it seem unnecessary for Li Landi to risk her reputation on a project that has not provided certainty from the start. This makes the decision to withdraw, if it indeed happens, considered reasonable by many parties.
5. Ding Yuxi is in a Career Transition

Meanwhile, for Ding Yuxi, the project Canghai Huakai or A Beautiful Destiny is actually seen as an important opportunity to regain public trust. His latest drama, Fight for Love, co-starring Victoria Song, has not shown optimal performance in the market.
Unsatisfactory ratings and mixed reviews have led Ding Yuxi to seek a project that can showcase his charm again, like when he succeeded with Love Game in the Eastern Fantasy. Therefore, this fantasy drama is hoped to be a turning point in his career.
6. The Future of A Beautiful Destiny is Still Uncertain
Until now, there has been no official statement confirming whether Li Landi has truly stepped down or is just delaying her involvement. However, since no suitable replacement has been found, the project A Beautiful Destiny is reported to be temporarily frozen.
While Li Landi enjoys a surge in popularity, Ding Yuxi is actually in a challenging phase of his career. With unresolved internal conflicts, the future of the Chinese drama A Beautiful Destiny is now in great doubt and continues to be a focus for fans.
