Why did Dong Fangshuo in the TV series Son of Man change his name?

This is because after the first broadcast, some people questioned that the play was too fabricated in history, and the Radio and Television Bureau temporarily requested re-dubbing, especially the part involving historical names, so it was renamed Dong Fangshuo-Oriental Hui, Li Ling-Li Yong and so on.

Moreover, because it involves history, I am afraid of misleading the audience, thinking that the great man Tianzi is a historical drama and plays the truth. In fact, in history, Dong Fangshuo was a humorous old man and an exhorter. He didn't start his career by fortune telling. So SARFT asked people to change their names.

Shady, snared Liu Che and his gang. Liu Che was in danger without knowing it, and was addicted to the pursuit of youthful love. Dong Fangshuo, a strange man whom Liu Che met occasionally, pointed out the maze several times, which made them almost miss and turned the situation around. Finally, Liu Che played chess first and ascended the throne of the emperor.

Emperor Wudi ascended the throne in his teens, relying on the wisdom of the East and "princelings" to crowd out Dou Taihou and other harem forces. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty made great efforts to rule the country and rebelled against the Huns in the north, ending the 70-year history of maintaining humiliating peace only by "intimacy" and pushing the Han Dynasty to the most powerful peak.
