Fang Han

Biodata

Background

Fang Han is a wealthy business heir and the president of Yintai Company. His family's inheritance arrangement allocates one-third of the business to him and two-thirds to the family's daughter. He expects deference as both a wealthy heir and a paying client, and openly boasts that people ordinarily flatter him wherever he goes 45 47.

Gu Xingfan is his distant cousin-uncle and creditor. Although their family connection extends beyond five generations, Gu repeatedly invokes his seniority when reprimanding Fang Han 55 83.

Personality

Fang Han is status-conscious, domineering, and quick to anger. When Xu Su refuses to accommodate him, he escalates from demanding apologies to threatening contract termination, an industry blacklist, and physical violence. His confidence falters around Huo Yuchen: he shifts into polite business manners, offers an apology dinner, and later withdraws his pointing hand immediately when Huo threatens it 45 46 47 48 83.

He readily accepts Zhuang Luo's displays of distress as proof that Xu Su has mistreated him. However, his apparent protectiveness is conditional: he accepts Zhuang Luo's humiliation when it allows him to escape Huo Yuchen's displeasure. After suffering a public beating himself, he makes Zhuang Luo the target of prolonged captivity and abuse 46 49 88 104.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Endorsement Dispute

Fang Han arrives at Xu Su's endorsement shoot with Zhuang Luo and arranges to turn the work into a joint endorsement. Cheng Nan explains that the arrangement is intended to make Xu Su and Zhuang Luo's earlier conflict appear staged. Refusing the five contracts would incur combined penalties of fifteen million, limiting Xu Su's ability to walk away 44 45.

When Xu Su mocks Zhuang Luo, Fang Han demands an apology. The dispute intensifies after Zhuang Luo slaps himself and presents the scene as though Xu Su has attacked him. Fang Han immediately blames Xu Su; Xu Su responds by actually slapping Zhuang Luo rather than accepting responsibility for something he did not do. Fang Han then threatens to terminate the contract and destroy Xu Su's entertainment career 44 45 46.

Fang Han attempts to attack Xu Su and demands ten audible kowtows, but Huo Yuchen interrupts. Xu Su reports that Fang Han has forced him to share the endorsement and surrender the center position. Fang Han's proposed apology dinner does not resolve the confrontation: Huo orders Zhuang Luo to perform the ten kowtows to Fang Han instead. Fang Han accepts and pressures Zhuang Luo to comply 47 48 49.

Afterward, Cheng Nan informs Xu Su that Fang Han has amended the contracts, canceled the endorsements, and agreed to pay him in full 49.

Dating Show and Island Survival

Fang Han joins the six-person cast of See You Beyond the Rainbow, arriving with Gu Xingfan. His introduction immediately goes wrong when he selects the viewer comment “Who's Fang Han?” and erupts into profanity, prompting staff to pull him away. Faced with the island's conditions, he later demands a private flight to Hawaii, luxury accommodation, expensive food and wine, and threatens termination and legal action 51 53.

He is furious to discover that Gu Xingfan has brought him along while intending to pursue Xu Su. Their uncle-nephew disagreements become recurring arguments and physical fights, particularly whenever Fang Han insults Xu Su 55 70 88 90.

During the survival tasks, Fang Han maneuvers Zhuang Luo into gathering firewood with him. He maintains intimate physical contact despite Zhuang Luo's attempts to move away and discusses their next private encounter within earshot of the cameras. Zhuang Luo tolerates him because he still needs Fang Han's connections, while concealing the affair from his current partner, Li Weizhou 56 59.

Fang Han deliberately aggravates Li Weizhou by embracing Zhuang Luo, calling him “Luoluo,” and suggesting that they are involved. Their hostility later degenerates into a prolonged exchange of insults about wealth, professional status, and intelligence 61 73.

Several incidents make Fang Han a target of the show's comedy:

• Mushroom-toxin incident: He tries to separate Li Weizhou and Gu Xingfan during a nighttime episode of poisoning-induced behavior. They mistake him for a participant, tug at his clothing, and Li Weizhou knocks him unconscious. The two then fall asleep beside him 70.
• Argument-induced dizziness: Xu Su's refusal to take their argument seriously enrages Fang Han until he collapses backward. The doctor finds no serious problem and attributes the dizziness to a sudden rush of anger 71.
• Life Q&A: A caller asks whether a business can be started without money, then supplies “begging” as the answer. After receiving the minimum score of one point, Fang Han threatens to fight the caller and must be restrained by staff 79.
• Supply dispute: Discovering that his single point buys only one cookie, he confronts the director. Gu Xingfan initially objects to his aggression, then joins him after remembering that his own reward is only six cookies 83.

Despite their hostility, Fang Han and Xu Su briefly shake hands over their shared exasperation with Gu Xingfan's pursuit of Xu Su. Gu responds by kicking Fang Han 85.

Affair Exposure

When Zhuang Luo appears with a badly swollen face, Fang Han again accuses Xu Su without evidence. Gu Xingfan attacks him for confronting his supposed future cousin-in-law, and their renewed fighting carries them away from the proceedings 88 90.

They return to find photographs exposing Fang Han and Zhuang Luo's affair being displayed. Zhuang Luo insists that Xu Su fabricated the evidence, but Fang Han inadvertently destroys that defense: he states that Xu Su could not have obtained their bedroom photographs because they took those photographs themselves. Li Weizhou then beats Fang Han, pinning his head against the ground 94 95.

Captivity, Injury, and Imprisonment

After the airport incident, Fang Han confines Zhuang Luo in a villa and abuses him day and night. Humiliated by his public beating and unwilling to accept responsibility for the affair, he uses Zhuang Luo as an outlet for his anger 104.

Zhuang Luo eventually lures him into the kitchen, obtains scissors, and demands his release. The threat fails, but during the struggle he severs Fang Han's penis and escapes amid the resulting chaos. Fang Han is taken to hospital, resuscitated, and subsequently contacts the police 104 106.

Zhuang Luo later reports Fang Han for rape. DNA evidence supports the charge, and Fang Han is imprisoned 106.

Relationships

• Zhuang Luo — Affair partner who seeks access to Fang Han's entertainment-industry connections. Fang Han publicly defends him and exposes their intimacy, then later confines and abuses him. Zhuang Luo injures him while escaping and ultimately reports him for rape 59 95 104 106.
• Xu Su — Former endorsement artist and frequent adversary. Fang Han attempts to use contractual and financial leverage against him, but repeatedly loses verbal confrontations. They briefly cooperate in mocking Gu Xingfan 45 46 71 85.
• Huo Yuchen — An intimidating figure whose intervention defeats Fang Han's attempt to punish Xu Su. Fang Han treats him deferentially and backs down when directly threatened 47 48 49 83.
• Gu Xingfan — Distant cousin-uncle, creditor, and fellow dating-show guest. Their arguments repeatedly become physical, especially over Gu's pursuit and protection of Xu Su 55 70 83 88 90.
• Li Weizhou — Zhuang Luo's partner during the affair and Fang Han's romantic rival. Their mutual antagonism culminates in Li beating Fang Han after the photographic evidence is confirmed 59 61 73 95.
• Cheng Nan — Xu Su's manager, who tries to appease Fang Han during the endorsement dispute and physically intervenes when Fang Han threatens violence 45 47.
