As of today, all dramas filming at Hengdian, Xiangshan, Wuxi, and Shanghai Chedun Studios have stopped filming. This means almost all period dramas, such as Zhao Liying and Wang Yibo’s Legend of Fei and Yang Zi and Kris Wu’s The Golden Hairpin, have paused filming. In addition, many dramas filming outside these places have announced a pause, including Wang Kai’s Like a Flowing River, Yang Mi and Bai Yu’s Thank You Doctor, and Zhang Xincheng’s The Corridor Pavilion. Other dramas set to begin filming have also been delayed indefinitely. Hopefully, things will get better in two weeks and they’ll be able to get to work again.
Good news, a vaccine for the virus is undergoing R&D:

It should take a few months for it to finalize and then go to distribution. I think everything should be back to normal by the summer, at the latest, hopefully.
Its important not to take the risk. their health is wealth,most priority and its for good.
Good call. Also, typo— it’s Wang Yibo for ‘Legend of Fei’, not Wu YiFan, no?
Good catch! It’s fixed now.
