Dear XiaoXin!
I wish i could write you a letter… a real letter. Like the one i would write to ZC. Since i cannot do that, i’m going to write here instead. I have already communicated with you in here before. But i still have so much to say to you.
As much as ZC make me feel all kinds of emotions, i have realised, that your presence in this fandom makes me feel all the same emotions. I’ve been part of different fandoms before, but in none of those fandoms have i found a fellow fan, who’s presence makes me feel so welcomed. I don’t paticulary feel close to this fandom too… not anymore 😞. But to find at least one person, who makes me feel like i belong, means the world to me. For me, that person is you. I don’t even know why that is. Is it because you show so much love and respect for ZC? Or is it because i see how you treat other fans with so much kindness? I think it’s all of that. The way you are willing to listen to different opinions and how you are able to understand others points of views without forcing your own on them… i wish more people were like you. I often think that fans have a lot to learn from their artists. Amongst everyone in our fandom, you are the one, who radiates the same kindness, the same warmth, the same kind of compassion, that our beloved ZC do. I can see why you are so drawn to them. Like ZX has said many times “people on the same wavelength always find a way to each other”. I want to thank you for explaining everything to us, who don’t understan chinese, so that we can be a little bit on ease, when things get difficult. I want to thank you for always being so positive, because when you love someone, it’s so easy to be constantly worried when things don’t go like they are supposed to. Don’t listen to those, who say you are too positive about certain situations. There’s no such thing as “too positive”. I want to thank you for your countless translations, that make me able to be the fan i am. Because of you i’m actually able to understand and see the world they want us to see. I can see the effort and hard work you put into building this bridge stronger and stronger to carry so many of us to ZC. Thank you for being the glue that keeps a lot of us together. Thank you for simply excisting together with us.
I hope you also have someone like you in this fandom, someone who makes you feel like you make me feel. I see how you get criticised so often for no reason at all. I hope you have someone, who can comfort you, like you have comforted us for so many times. I hope you know how incredibly wonterful you are. I hope you’ll be part of this fandom for many years to come.
I have thanked you for so many times already that i sound like broken radio. But thats i grateful i am to you ❤️ So here goes my letter to you. You don’t have to answer this if you don’t feel like it. At least i got to say what i have been wanting to say.
And thank you again, forever and always… 🩷💚
I definitely need to answer this 😭 This is such a long & warm message from precious zcj! Tbh I don't even know how to reply bc I don't think there are enough words to convey how I felt rn!
I never expected anything in return when I started doing this. I just wanted to share what I knew & help inter fans understand them a little better so one day, when I slowly fade away from fandom, I don't think I'll have any regrets 😉
What makes me grateful is knowing that my existence helped some fans understand zc and how precious they are as people :) My way of loving people has never been loud, I don't really have the desire to meet them, get noticed by them, or be recognized. I just want to be here quietly, love them quietly, and one day leave quietly too. It's more peaceful that way 🤭
My willingness to listen to diff opinions? I think that's probably the quality I value most about myself too. Growing up, I always wanted my own voice to be heard + respected without being compared to others, my life experiences taught me that I can't only see things from my own perspective. There are always other pov worth understanding, even when we don't agree with them 🤗 that's why I can go through life without worrying too much every day, I try to understand before I judge 😌
After receiving criticism many times, I've become much stronger now! I don't really care about it anymore. I've learned how to find my way back to myself, back to being positive~
Over the years I've drifted away from many friends bc life simply moves people in diff directions. But I'm very lucky to still have my bestie of 13yr, who has become my travel buddy, my random talk and one of the constants in my life 🫶
Reading messages like yours reminds me that maybe I have more ppl than I realize cheering for me from afar too 🥹 Thank you for taking the time to write this, thank you for seeing me far more kindly than I see myself ☺️ Thank you, truly. I'll keep this message in my heart for a very long time 💖💚

Hi XiaoXin! You know, i've been thinking... It's funny how because i love two actors that you happen to love aswell, i actually have started to care about you alot too. On days when you don't post on x i always wonder how you are doing, are you well? Have you eaten? Are you tired? And days when you translate content after content i wonder if you get enough sleep while doing so much for us, international fans. You have your own life, your own job yet you're always the first to update us. Because of you, i'm able to understand the actors i love so much. I actually once tried to translate one minut video myself. You know how long it took me? An hour 🫣. I truly think that you are the reason why a lot of us haven't given up the love we have for ZC. Because sometimes when you love someone but you are not able to understand a word they speak, it gets so hopeless. I personally have you to thank for it, that you help me to truly understand and get to know them. You posted that you are working on translating things you love (drama series etc).. why do i feel so proud of you? Why am i so happy for you? Because let's be honest, i don't actually even know you. Yet here i am, caring about you so much. It's like i'm a fan of yours aswell 😊
Anyway, that's what i wanted to tell you for a while now. I wish you eternal happiness and may your every dream come true. And thank you, forever and always! 🩷💚
Hi 🥺💖💚 I actually read your message a few days ago, but I wanted to reply when I had the time to properly express how I feel. Your message really made me feel so overwhelmed and happy… I never thought someone would feel this way about what I do, so I’m truly, truly grateful 🫶
There are times when balancing life, work, and translating/updating ZhanCheng is really hard. Sometimes I skip meals or don’t get enough sleep, and even a 15–20 min video can take 7–8 hours to finish. But they bring me happiness, so I keep going :)
What means the most to me is knowing that there are people who notice my efforts. Thank you so much, really 🥺
One thing I’ve learned from c-zcj is that we’re all fans who love ZhanCheng, so we should support each other. At first it was just for fun and love, but now I hope I can help more people get to know and love them too. That would make me really happy 💖💚
Wherever you are, I hope you’re always happy, stay healthy, and continue loving ZhanCheng 🫶

Xiaoxin, this is C-ZCJ who has been following you quietly. You’re really amazing! Every time I get hurt by the public opinion on Weibo, I come to Twitter, and then seeing the sweet messages from Inter fans is so healing. I know you also check Weibo often and are among the first to be exposed to all that toxic content, but I notice you never bring that kind of public opinion to your own account. I deeply know how hard this is—after all, it’s hard to avoid wanting to rant or say something about it. Besides, you also mentioned before that there are some thoughtless people who come to ask you weird questions that have nothing to do with Zhancheng, and some even mistake you for someone from Google. All in all, you’ve really been through a lot. In the end, it’s still the same wish: 祝我们万事顺意！*This was translated using Google Translate, and I hope it conveys my sincere feelings correctly.💖💚

Xinxin, I've always wanted to say thank you so much for being here in the XuanXuan fandom. I've followed you since the very beginning, and I’m truly grateful for your genuine support and love for both of them ❤️ Thank you for always sharing and translating their updates! I know it can't be easy to balance everything with your own life, but I'm so thankful that you've stayed the same and continue to keep such a positive attitude. I don't even know what else to say, just that there are people who deeply appreciate your presence in the XuanXuan fandom 🫶 love u 💚🩷
Omg 🥹 thank you for saying this!! It really means so much to me 💚🩷 I just feel happy to be here with everyone, sharing what I can. Sometimes it’s tiring, but knowing there are people who appreciate it makes everything worth it 🫶 I’m also grateful for you and for this fandom family, let’s keep supporting them together ❤️ love u too!!

Hi!
Can you maybe answer my question if you know the answer of course 😊 Why do all introductions keep mentsiining LXC’s EP. Like this friday, that he’s talking about his new EP and the bts No One But You. But he just released a song not an entire EP yet? I’m confused 😄
Hi! 😊 From what I understand, it's mainly a promotional wording thing. Even though only one song has been officially released so far, that song is part of his EP. So when media outlets say "his new EP" because they're promoting the entire project rather than just the currently released track~ think of it like when an artist releases the first single from an upcoming album, they'll often say "from the upcoming album" even though the full album isn't out yet.
I could be wrong if his team changes the release plan, but that's how these promotions are usually done 🩷💚

Hi XiaoXin!
Happy 1st anniversary to you and all other ZCJ 🩷💚 The project you made is so so beautyful. Happy to be part of it ☺️
Tell me if i’m being weird. Lately, maybe like the last half a year, i feel like i don’t want to know anything about their life outside of work. And i mean ANYTHING. I don’t want to see any photos that fans have shared when they have seen them in their private time, i don’t want to know what they are up to if they’re not working (if they choose not to share it). And yes, i’m not even interested in knowing what kind of relationship the two of them share. But that doesn’t mean i don’t love them. I still love them exactly the same and even more than before. But i just don’t want to know anything that has even remotely to do something with their private life anymore. Am i weird? Now people will probably think i’m not a real fan 😬
Happy 1st anniversary to you too! 🩷💚 And thank you so much for being part of the project!
Honestly, I think that's actually a very healthy mindset. Being a fan doesn't mean we have to know every detail of someone's private life, respecting that boundary is another way of showing love.
Personally, I've always believed that not everything needs to be known. If they want to share something, we'll happily celebrate it with them, if they choose to keep something private, that's okay too :)
And, dear... there's no single definition of what a real fan is. As long as you genuinely support them, respect them, and they bring happiness to your life, that's already enough 🩷💚

Hi XiaoXina!
I remember you answered a question here and explaining that the 1st anniversary is celebrating ZC recognizing their fans. But looking at other’s posts it seems like you’re the only rational one. Because everybody else are celebrating ZC relationship instead 🤦♀️ They’re not in a relationship tho? Not that i know, but it’s quite obvious.
Thank you for explaining things to us in truethful way, If it wasn’t for you, i’d be sonconfused most of the time honestly. 🩷💚
Ahhh I see~ 🩷💚 Yes, the anniversary is about ZC recognizing their fans. I also understand why some people naturally associate it with ZC's relationship, since everyone interprets things differently.
But if you look at what the C-ZCJs have posted, especially the phrase "有名有分", it's about the anniversary of ZC recognizing their fans, not about confirming or celebrating ZC's relationship.
Well everyone enjoys the fandom in their own way, I just prefer explaining things based on what has actually been said or shared, so hopefully it helps everyone understand the context a little better 🩷💚

Lol. Who says you’re not a ZCJ if you support another couple? Since when are people supposed to only be fans of two people in their lifetime? 🤣 Why do i have a feeling, that the people who say things like that, are the same people who are wayyy to obsessed over their artists. These really possessive ones, who think the artist belongs to them and that every fans entire life is supposed to revolve around their artist…. Simply childish 😆 But it’s a good example of how not to be a fan and the unhealthiest way of being a fan.
Anyway, love who you love XiaoXin. I actually really gravitate towards fellow fans who show interest in things/people other than ZC 🩷💚
Hahaha actually at this point in my life, I don't really care what people say about me anymore 😂 I spend my own money, time, and energy on the idols I love because it makes me happy and I don't think strangers have any right to judge that lol
Even before becoming a zcj, I've been a fan of many Chinese actors and actresses. ZC is definitely my first cp that I've invested this much in, but my happiness is mine, and that's nobody else's business 🤷♀️ At the end of the day, being a fan should be something that adds happiness to your life, not something that limits it. We can support different artists while still genuinely loving ZC. And thank you for saying this. It really means a lot to me 😘🩷💚

Hi XiaoXin!
Thank you for your 1st anniversary project. It’s absolutely gorgeous 🩷💚 oh how i wish i could see it in person. I really appreciate you for taking the time to make this project come true, it’s my first time participating in something like that. I feel a little bit proud 🙈☺️
Thank you also for updating all Zhan Xuan’s PFW content 🩷💚
I have a little question as well. Or maybe not a question but a worry? Thought? Idk.
I think that’s actually maybe just in my head, but i feel like (especially lately) that whenever we see Zhan Xuan offline, compared to maybe half a year ago, he seems, not sad, definitely not sad. But he doesn’t show he’s usual chatty side. He used to be so carefree, smiley, a little bit silly. Especially silly, he doesn’t show his silly side to us anymore 🥺 He’s so on guard when we see him offline. Maybe that’s the prblem. The more famous they become, the harder it is for them to be as carefree as they were.
But i think i just overhink it. Or maybe he really wants to protect that side of him now. Thst precious side of him. Maybe he wants to keep that side to the people who are close to him. Let’s be honest, he can’t really give all of himself to us 😊
Thank you, XiaoXin, for listening 🩷💚
Thank you so much for supporting the anniversary project 🩷💚 And thank you for always following my updates too!
About Zhan Xuan, I think it's completely okay to have those thoughts. Personally, I don't think he's unhappy, if anything, I think he's just growing :)
As people become more well-known, they're naturally more aware of cameras and public attention. They also learn what they want to share with the public and what they want to keep for themselves. I don't necessarily see that as losing his spark, but rather becoming more mature and learning to protect his private life. At the same time, we only see a few minutes of his day, we don't really know what he's like the rest of the time with his family, friends, or the people he's close to. So I try not to judge too much based on short public moments.
I actually think your last thought is a beautiful way to look at it. He doesn't have to give every part of himself to us, and that's okay. The fact that he still shares pieces of his journey with us is already something I'm grateful for :)
So don't worry too much 😊 Let's continue supporting both of them without putting too many expectations on how they "should" act. As long as they're healthy, happy, and able to keep doing what they love, I think that's enough for me 🩷💚
little demons · 8d
Hi!
I noticed that you only answer some people’s comments on X. Even when more people have commented something. Lol. Not that i judge you, it’s your choice, i was just wondering is there a reason behind it.
Btw looooove your work soo much. It hasn’t been long since you last posted some vlog or something but i already miss it 🥺 I know you’re busy with everything. Don’t ever feel pressured by us. We can wait for everything 🩷💚 Tanks to you i can enjoy being a fan of ZC ❤️
Actually there's no special reason, it's pretty random, not every comment gets detected in my mentions because some are filtered as spam, and sometimes I just feel like not every reply needs a response (?) I hope that makes sense, if it's a question, I'm more likely to reply :) (unless ppl asked me about rumor, I don't like it)
It's the same with DMs too, I don't usually check them very often because I manage this acc every day while also working full-time on the side.
As for vlogs, I don't think there are any left for me to sub at the moment 😂 Right now I'm also super busy because the second half of the year is usually the busiest season for translators, so I'll probably take things a lot slower with ZC videos. But I'm still working on the rl bts little by little!
Thank you again for always supporting me~ I'm happy that my work helps you enjoy being a ZC fan 🩷💚

Hi XiaoXin!
You know, we are all so so happy whenever ZC post something or whenever there’s any kind of event. For me, the happiness at that moment is maybe like 70%. But once you post your translation to whatever they posted, my happiness level goes up to a 100% and i’m screaming, kicking my feet and running around with excitement like a little kid. Like there’s a thousand butterflies in my stomach that almost make me feel sick. Is that how love feels like?
You always say that being a fan is not about language and i completely agree with you, but knowing and understanding what the person you love want’s to share makes the love grow so strong. I cannot imagine just watching their content and not understanding a word. What exactly would i love then? Their looks?
At this point i also cannot imagine my life in this fandom without you XiaoXin. I don’t even want to think about the possibility of you not being here. 🩷💚
As i write this, i realized how selfish i sound. It’s like i love your presence in this fandom because you’re useful for us. But the thing is, i actually care about you alot. I worry about you all the time. You’re constantly so busy that i hope you really have some time to rest too. Remember in around february when your loved one passed away? I actually cried. I don’t even know why. But that was the moment i realized that i actually care about you as a person too, not just because of your work you do for us.
As time goes on my love and appreciation for you has grown stronger and stronger, theres always sooo much i want to say to you. I’ve written to you in here so many times already. Writing only once would never convey everything i want to say because you manage to stir up all kinds of emotions in me that i need to let out otherwise i would explode. Maybe i should just start journaling instead of bothering you here lol 😅 I really want you to know how much some pople cherish you. I want you to know how much we love you as a person not just as a transpator. There’s so much to love about you, but on top of the list is your unmached kindness. I’ve never seen anyone so considerate and understanding. I feel like i could write a book about “million reasons to love XiaoXin”. I should do that you know 😆
Anyway. I hope your days are filled with happiness and all the thing you love. I hope you eat well, rest well and continue being as amazing as you are. I always wish for ZC to be who they are, because that’s exactly why we love them. I wish you the same. Be who you are, you’re already so amazing and that’s why we love you.
Than you! 🩷💚
Awww... thank you so much for taking the time to write all of this 🥹🩷💚 I honestly don't know what to say because your message really touched my heart.
Thank you for always sending me your love, support, and kindness. I love ZC so much that I just want to bring more people to love them in the only way I can, even with how busy my life gets.
Sometimes it can be exhausting when ZC have a busy schedule and I also have work and real-life responsibilities, I end up staying up late to finish translations. But thankfully, God has always blessed me with good health, and I try my best to keep a positive mindset and maintain a healthy balance in life. So for now, everything is still going well :)
No matter how busy things get online, I always remind myself that my health and happiness come first. Only when I'm happy can I share that happiness with everyone in this fandom ^^
Thank you for caring about me as a person too. It really means a lot, especially knowing there are people who genuinely wish for me to be happy and healthy. I may not always know how to reply properly, but please know that I'm truly grateful. I sincerely hope everyone who loves ZC can be happy every single day, enjoy this journey together, and continue supporting them with lots of love. Wishing you nothing but happiness, good health, and beautiful moments ahead. Thank you, truly 🩷💚

Hi Xiao Xin! By any chances do you know if RedLight fansite no longer follows Zhenger? Thank you.
little demons · 13d
Oooohh. That story of why we celebrate their first anniversary is so cute. But how did you all knew back then, that they acknowledged ZCJ? Not solo fans aswell? Sorry, i’m just too new here, i’m trying to understand every detail as well as possible 😊🩷💚
Both solo fandom names were already established before the drama gained recognition. "Mingfen" (名分) became significant after the drama when both ZX and LXC posted it, and it later trended when Zhan Xuan used the same characters from Zheng'er post.
That's why many zcj see it as a form of recognition from both of them toward the fandom 💖💚

Hi xiaoxin, i feel like theres sm discourse abt theories etc. but honestly, is it wrong to feel the fun reading a little funsies theories? its not all of that theories gonna became true anyway, even if one of them became true i think thats might be coincidence. i feel like we should enjoy our own way of fangirling, im a realistic person too tbh and not always treating all of the theories are right, theres dumb theories too that doesn't make any sense. even if i enjoyed reading theories, i still have my own way too supporting them as individuals. is it truly that wrong?
I'm not saying it's wrong at all :) As I said, I understand why some fans enjoy reading theories, and there's nothing wrong with finding happiness in them. Even if it's just for a moment, happiness is still happiness.
Like I've said before, everyone has their own way of supporting and idolizing someone. Some people enjoy analyzing details, some enjoy making theories, some focus on official updates only, and some simply enjoy watching from the sidelines. None of those approaches are inherently right or wrong as long as everything stays within reasonable boundaries :)
When I said theories can be "wrong," I wasn't talking about the fans themselves. I meant that many theories may eventually turn out to be incorrect because they're based on fan interpretations rather than confirmed facts~ To me, the healthiest fandom space is one where people can enjoy theories, enjoy discussions, enjoy official content, and still keep an open mind if things turn out differently than expected 😊 You can enjoy theories while still supporting them as individuals and staying realistic. Those things aren't mutually exclusive.
At the end of the day, fandom should bring more happiness than stress. If reading theories is fun for you and doesn't negatively affect your view of them or other fans, then I don't see a problem with it at all 💖💚
