i remembered couple of months ago i watched on Youtube about gay love in china and how it was in the past so i heard about Zi Hua and Zi Gao and i remember i was fascinated about the info of how much the man was in love with the guy, he made him his lover ,gave him a name and important positions too he gave him a lot, it did look like genuine love as he tried to make him appear as equal and was courting him so hard,the real definition of whipped, but their love ended in tragic way, and it wasnt a relationship problem, Zi Hua died then Zi Gao become vulnerable, i dont remember the details of that video but he commited suicide later on. i dont consider this a spoiler because thats how it ended in real life but i dont think thats how it ended in the movie, by reading comments it looks better than how it really ended in the real life
,so after knowing that this movie was based on them i was really excited to watch the movie ,then i felt dissapointed, mostly because of how messed up the eng translation was so i lost interest to watch something that im barely understanding
