Guo Zi Fan, born in Qingdao, Shandong province, is a Chinese singer-actor, and a member of the Chinese male pop group "X-NINE". In 2015 while still in high school, after participating in the youth network drama "Seventeen Blue", he joined Zhejiang Satellite TV "Burning Boy" youth talent program to become a trainee of Tianyu, and was screened to become one of the 16 recorded program contestants, thus making his official entry into showbiz. In February 2016, he and his team mates, namely Wu Jiacheng, Gu Jiacheng and Zhao Lei, debuted officially as "X-Fire". In September of same year, Guo participated in the "X-Nine Youth League" debut conference, marking his official debut as a dancer at the same time. In 2017, he was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy with the first place in the performance department in the country.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
