10. [+1246] It's still Liu Yi Fei who's pretty 


This is now the second article that I've translated where South Korean has ranked Chinese celebrities. I'm really curious to know which South Korean media outlet is writing these articles.
Also, it's clear that Zhang Li only made it to the list because she's dating Joo Jin Moo. She's only been in one ancient costume drama! I don't deny that she's beautiful but there are many more actresses who are known for their ancient costume dramas.

NETIZENS: FAN BING BING ENTERS TIMES TOP 100 MOST INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE AGAIN!

QQ: FAN BING BING RE-SELECTED FOR TIMES TOP 100 MOST INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE

COMMENTS: 781

1. [+1369] China having such a person should be supported. I don't understand why the haters hate. When foreign women have such news you can't wait to lick their feet.

2. [+486] Because she's Chinese, you belittle her.
Z-list foreign women you exalt their faeces
Even that something Hepburn got married then divorced, you all praised her beauty independencece and intelligence.
To sum it up, the foreign moon in a stray dogs eyes is rounder [T/N: the grass is always greener on the other side]

3. [+468] So happy!! At this moment I want to say, congradulations Fan Bing Bing, you are the pride of the Chinese, also in the comments the face of those piss keyboard warriors is really funny, their face cos they're not use it to yet cannot get rid of it is really adorable.

4. [+459] Fan Bing Bing indeed has influence, an actor who doesn't act, just stars in ads and becomes famous. Then hung around all types of fashion conferences and place where she can be exposed, occasionally appeared in random films, took off her clothes. When an actor can't rely on their acting they can also have a smooth life, Fan Bing Bing undoubtedly set the benchmark!

5. [+291] Fan Bing Bing regularly encourages Li Chen, you can see that Fan Bing Bing is very supportive partner! Not only has money but also ability and doesn't care whether her boyfriend has as much influence as her, also spares no effort to encourage her boyfriend, support her boyfriend! If each girl treated her boyfriend like this, doesn't worship money, doesn't drag him down, doesn't make trouble, supports boyfriend, encourages boyfriend, then how happy would all the men in the world be! So I reckon for everyone happiness we should support Fan Bing Bing! Let this great atmosphere flourish! Man will be blessed!

NETIZENS: THE NEW "FOUR GOLDEN SHENG NV"

QQ: RUBY LIN AND SHU QI END THEIR SINGLENESS, TAIWANESE MEDIA SELECT THE NEW "FOUR GOLDEN SHENG NV"

Joe Chen, Jolin Tsai, Tanya Chua and Cyndi Wang selected as the new "Four Golden Sheng Nv"

COMMENTS: 3560
1. [+5071] I've always felt that Sheng Nan and Sheng Nv are considered to be the cruelest titles. It is
difficult for me to understand. I respect marriage, however, each individual is already complete. There is no need to look for another half. It doesn't matter how old you are, all have the right to choose singleness. Since they are living happily, love life, are unwilling, are unselected, when deem them leftover? Those who are leftover are those condescending individuals who consider their point of view to be those of the whole world.

2. [+1571] A bunch of actors*, married or not what they hell has they got to do with us.

3. [+1144] I really like Joe Chen 😊

4. [+1023] Without even considering that they're celebrities, they all are rich, living well. Why must they get married? Marriage does not guarantee happiness. Today aren;' there a lot of celebrities who don't even consider getting married? Successful women don't need to rely on men. Instead there are a lot of weak men who want to rely on women to live a good life. When encountering this type of man, women would prefer not to marry.

5. [+700] Where is Lin Chi Ling? Isn't she considered an old Sheng Nv.

6. [+396] Tsai Ing Wen, Park Geun Hye

7. [+375] Perhaps each of them have played around with a lot of bosses, therefore those who understand are afraid to marry them and those without status are unable to marry them.
[T/N: pretty much saying that perhaps they slept with a lot of influential figures so they could get famous. those who understand how the industry works are afraid to marry them and those who have no status (outside the industry) are unable to marry them because the girls are looking for someone with status.]

8. [+242] A 35 year plus age pregnant woman who wants that... Rich and stubborn.

9. [+216] The impression Ruby Lin gives me is okay, nothing to say. Regarding Shu, 9 out of 10 films are erotic. One face that tens of thousands have ridden on.^

10. [+162] I think men or women who never get married or have kids are failures.

NOTES:
* netizen wrote 戏子which can be directly translated as actor, however, I feel like they meaning they were trying to convey was more along the lines of divas.
^ direct translation. wasn't sure how else to translate that

NETIZENS: XIAN XIA* ACTOR RANKINGS - HU GE IS FIRST

QQ: XIAN XIA ACTOR RANKINGS, NO ONE HAS AN ISSUE WITH HU GE BEING FIRST RIGHT

Beginning 10 years ago with Chinese Paladin there has been wave after wave of emerging xian xia nan shen*. There is no doubt Hu Ge is a representative of Xian Xia actors.

Due to the popularity of Sword of Legends, Li Yi Feng quickly became famous. With Qing Yun Sect 1 and 2, his popularity reached new heights.

From Chinese Paladin 3 to Hua Qian Gu, Wallace Huo has sent countless fans crazy.

With just Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms, Mark Chao in an instant has become the standard for the next generation of xian xia nan shen in the hearts of countless fans.

With his role in Sword of Legends, Qiao Zhen Yu has secured his place as a xian xia nan shen.

Vengo Gao received attention in Sword of Legends, he later starred in Legend of Zu. His more popular role, however, is indeed Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms' Dong Hua Dijun

William Chan in Sword of Legends and Legend of Zu demonstrated an excellent performance. This in addition to his aesthetics, is an indispensable xian xia nan shen.


COMMENTS: 3661
1. [+2804] 李逍遥，童远，景天，飞蓬，龙阳，杨六郎，宇文拓，易小川^

2. [+2406] Li Yi Feng is the most disgusting, least qualified.

3. [+1981] Still it's Ye Hua whose love has a strong aura.

4. [+1627] Hu Ge first. Wallace Huo second.

5. [+1496] If I call them six young children you won't laugh at my old age, right?

6. [+1061] After I watched Three Lives Three Worlds I fell in love with Dong Hua Di Jun.

7. [+782] Mei Chang Su^ was acted really well

8. [+533] Personally like Mark Chao. He has Ye Hua's calm demeanour, loyalty in a relationship, regarding his career he's able to perform vividly. I think he's first 😊😊

9. [+530] Disagree, I think Louis Koo should take first place. Not only is his acting good, his personality is even better.

10. [+381] Hu Ge is the most handsome, Mark Chao second, Wallace Huo equal second.


NOTES:
* xian xia is a fantasy genre typically involving martial arts, mythology and Taoist/Buddhist ideas
^ names of the characters Hu Ge has acted as
