The drama has started fiming sometime in December 2013. Zhao Li Ying and Zhang Han have been confirmed as the leads. Some pictures of the filming process have been released so I will share them with readers who are following the novel translations. The quality of those pictures are not very good but they are the better one I can find. I have included my personal opinion/comments and you are allowed to disagree with me:) Judging from the pictures released, I am not very happy with the direction of the drama so you have been warned. Who know, when the drama is released, I’ve to eat back all my words, lol?
I think the official English t.i.tle for the drama is Come on Eat. I guess it is okay, quite close to my translation, heehee…The design of that poster is quite cute with the Chinese character of the word ‘Eat’ looking like a pacman.
I think this may be Shan Shan’s rented apartment. Well, it is befitting her poor status so no comment on it. Just that, I am looking forward to see Feng Teng’s mansion.
Is my Shan Shan going to look like this? I prefer the hair a bit shorter and more curls so she’ll look even more adorable. In the novel, Shan Shan does not even know how to use make-up so this is too much with the fake eye lashes. Okay, this could be after she started dating Feng Teng but minimum make-up please to retain her pure and simple appearance. Also, the cheeks are not chubby enough for Feng Teng to pinch, lol.
This picture is slightly better because I cannot really see the make-up:P Zhao Li Ying indeed looks very sweet and cute, just like Shan Shan. I don’t know who are the two girls. Maybe, her colleagues such as Ah May?
Here is our Big Boss Feng Teng looking cool and arrogant. Unfortunately he is wearing a red/pink coat:( How do you look handsome and imposing when you are wearing such a girly color coat, sob sob…..?
Okay, I can a.s.sume Feng Teng is wearing a red coat because it is Christmas so he needs to wrap himself up like a present for Shan Shan, lol. Also, he needs to look brighter and better than the X-mas tree which is next to him. However, please don’t let me catch my Feng Teng wearing Shan Shan’s color clothes again. I think they are filming the part where Feng Teng is taking Shan Shan home after the company’s annual banquet.
This is male lead number 2 Huang Ming. n.o.body knows which character he will portray in the novel or additional to the novel. Could he be Yan Qing or Senior a.s.sistant Fang or Feng Teng’s new rival in love?
I suspect Feng Teng will be driving a white sports car. Anyone know what type of car? I don’t think Gu Man mentioned what type of car he drives in the novel. All I know is lawyer He Yi Chen drives a silver BMW as per the novel. I’ve to say lawyer He has better taste in car than Feng Teng:P
The crew has filmed Feng Yue and Yan Qing’s son one month old banquet (in Chinese it is called ‘full moon’). The screenwriter exercised his poetic license and called the baby Yan Xue.
This is little Yan Xue !!!! Isn’t he cute? I wonder how Yan Qing looks like. Lidge said she looks cute just like that when she was a month old, but the truth is Lidge dreams of having such a cute son, haha…..
I think this is a picture of the ‘full moon’ baby banquet where Shan Shan wanted to hide away and eat more but ended up sitting in the same table as Feng Teng. I honestly hope the drama will turn out better because I’ve a lot of bas.h.i.+ng to do based on this picture alone. Firstly, although the color is right, why Feng Teng is dressed fully in black like he is attending a funeral??? Can’t he match his black coat with a white/blue/grey or any other color s.h.i.+rt/sweater? Also, why his hairstyle looks like he has just got out of bed? Use some gel and a comb please since he is attending such a formal occasion.
Shan Shan isn’t doing any better. Her coat is just too casual. I can’t really see what she is wearing but the coat is definitely too bland. Didn’t she use all her money to buy new clothes just for the banquet? Her hair is also awful making her look much older like an auntie. Beside the people, the setting also doesn’t look grand or lavish. Have the producer forgotten the banquet is held in an exclusive club? But this looks more like any ordinary Chinese restaurant. I hope all the budget have not gone to hire the two leads and there is still plenty of money left to give the drama better clothings and settings.
This is Shan Shan’s employee ID pa.s.s. The script writer decided to call her Cindy in English. Why Cindy? She works in Wind Group (Feng Teng Group) which has been translated correctly, lol.
This is a better looking picture of Shan Shan. The face has more meat for pinching, lol. The white turtleneck sweater looks quite nice, simple & angelic.
Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for Feng Teng:( What is that vest for? It makes him look kind of sissy? Is he very cold? Plan to enrol in the military?
For me, this is the best picture of Feng Teng, haha…..From the back, he looks just like the Feng Teng I imagine, tall & slender:P
According to baidu, they are filming a s...o...b..ll fight which is also not in the novel. But where is the snow? Feng Teng’s coat looks quite nice but you will change your mind when you look at the back:( Did you notice Feng Teng towering over Shan Shan, lol?
Yeah, the snow has finally arrived. Lets the s...o...b..ll fight begins!!!!
Could this be Feng Teng’s family home?
I think they are filming the part where Shan Shan’s grandpa fell sick and he has to be hospitalised. Oh, look at Shan Shan’s downcast appearance:(
At last, a better picture of Feng Teng but why he is still wearing that red coat???? Oops, I forgot it will be Lunar New Year next week so he needs to compete with the red packets, lol.
A casual & relaxed Shan Shan.
What is Feng Teng doing in a pub? Who is that girl? It better be Shan Shan or else he gonna be in big trouble!!!!
Whose engagement party? I bet Shan Shan is eager to get her hands on those yummy cakes:)
Whose birthday? This drama is aptly t.i.tled ‘Come on Eat’:P
