OMG after watching the preview of the new episode, let me tell you that the plot is really hitting me on a very sore spot... ahah!
So, I'll tell you my experience and why I can relate so much with Sheng Yang again.
During the pandemic, the company where I'm working has been struggling to keep up with the work as we were all doing smart working from home, which was quite a hassle and not an easy task. Several employees either resigned or got fired during that time and the enterprise had to give up in a few contracts because of that reason. When pandemic was over and we resumed office work, another of my co-worker resigned. At that time I was already handling as senior a famous luxury brand and I was in a collab for another one, which were keeping me busy enough to even have me do overtime work. Because there was no one to take over the brand handled by the designer who resigned, that project was pushed over on my arms and I had no way to object. I had to either accept or also resign, which for me was not an option. And like that was not already enough, because the company needed fresh blood, they accepted students in apprenticeship and the girl was also assigned to me to be tutored. I got so stressed that I started to go crazy, couldn't sleep and eat because of too much stress at work.
But somehow I managed to keep myself composed and at the end of the project, when I was to go into the meeting and present my work, I was ready with all my work done, including the work abandoned by the resigned designer. But surprise, when the chinese team complimented the person who did the project, my boss took all the credits, leaving me only some crumbs, saying I was only collaborating in market research and layout presentation, and not on drawing and projecting everything by myself. I had a mental break-down and I burst into a nervous crisis. It took me weeks to gather myself back.
Now related to the drama, in the preview I've seen Sheng Yang exploding and that brought back my own memories to resurface. 😅
Sorry for blabbering, I felt the need to share this with someone. 😂

Xiao Zhan's english is not perfect but his accent is exquisite for my ears.
I'm gonna engrave Sheng Yang's quote somewhere, for the posterity: "Happy wife, happy life." LOL so true! 😂

I was a bit reluctant to watch this because I wanted to watch some other period dramas first. But then I couldn't resist because a friend sent me a message to tell me that Sheng Yang's life resembles mine to perfection, in the job department and in general. I mean, how could I resist that?
So I dived in, and damn my friend was so right ahah!
In short: I'm the same age as Xiao Zhan and I have the same (more or less) job as Sheng Yang. When I first got hired, I also was a bit bullied by my boss and colleagues and I had to work my a** off to be able to maintain a bit of stability, and tbh even if now I'm a senior designer, from time to time I'm still getting bullied. It's funny that the enterprise I'm working for, have deals with China and every couple weeks I have a direct meeting with their boss via videochat where I present the workflow, materials, etc. So this drama is indeed like a slice of my own life.
When Shen Yang asked the girl if she knew how to use AI, InDesign, PS, etc, i could soooo relate because some of my office mates doesn't know to use many apps and I'm always burdened with extra work because of that.
Overall, this drama has a nice pace, great acting, and I love the choice of music background, very fitting in all the scenes.
I am fed up with MDL and its trolls, this drama would deserve a much higher rating, but well, we all know how Xiao Zhan's dramas are brutalized on this site. But still, such a pity.
Anyway, I can't wait for the next episodes. I highly recommend it.

How could he change his career if he was only a kid? What career does a 14yo kid can have except going to school? Did you watched the drama at least?

Two days after I finished watching this series, I found myself coming back here and lurking into the comments... I'm telling you this drama is ranked #4 on Netflix in my country right now, and somehow I just went in and binged again a couple episodes for no reason, although I'm not really into thriller/horror stuff... This is how good this drama is. Mindblowing.

What a great series! I binged it in one go without pause, I got hooked from start to finish. Although I hated the ending, that poor little girl lost both her grandma's and her mom in a single night. Couldn't she tell the granny that the baby was her niece? So much drama could be avoided and the little girl would have had both grandma's alive. Oh well, I bawled my eyes out, too cruel. But The series worth so much more that 7.5, this rating is an insult for such great acting.

I have no idea if you are a fan or not, honestly I don't care either. But his career was affected by leaks, not only once, and if you know how these leaks affect chinese artists' works, not only Xiao Zhan's, you wouldn't talk like that.
You people, trusting a melon account managed by a person who speaks 0 chinese and takes all her sources from weibo and douban translating them with google, thinking you know more than people who are actually speaking chinese and know where these melons coming from and how are they fabricated and spread. Lol okay...
If Xiao Zhan asked to not trust in melons and not spread them, there is a reason. But whatever. You do you, I see that you find big support in here.
Tl;dr, the person on the post below, was asking if XZ will only be taking mainstream projects from now on, because a melon account says so. But you say people are eating melon with caution...
Not everyone is you, like not everyone is me. Advocating for what Xiao Zhan was preaching gets me a scolding on his personal space. Lovely! Can't only laugh and go on my way.
Stay serene.

My "GTFO" was directed to that "fan" who persist on pestering XZ's drama pages with essays while preaching, meanwhile she downrated all his works. But dude, whatever, happy you to maintain a calm demeanor while others are stomping on his works in all serenity and you only find my comment offensive. LOL okay.

Then next time when one of his works gets leaked and spread by these melon accounts because they hunt for likes, and Xiao Zhan's career will be hurt by it again, you will feel good by not being in a cult and not following what he said to a letter because you re not his fan anyway. Good for you then. 🤷‍♀️
Calling for common sense means "dictating" nowadays... LOL.

Xiao Zhan said to stay away from melons, will give you diarrea. But I see more and more people following these melon accounts. Since when xfx lost their common sense? Stop following melon accounts, Xiao Zhan disapproves of it.
Also, some "fans" in this page should really leave XZ alone. You bashed him, his dramas and projects for far too long, downrating and ill speaking, then pretending to be for his own good... I mean, GTFO?!
Enough is enough, go find some useful hobby or something, ppl are tired to read your BS!

CGI awful? LOL the special effects for this drama were produced by the team of The Wandering Earth, a Hollywood specialized in movies crew. Please find something else to spew nonsense about. The CGI on this drama was spectacular from start to finish.

Welcome into the rabbit hole, make yourself comfy, it's gonna take a while until we gonna move out.

To me it's a happy ending. He promise he would be back when the snowy rosa will bloom and he kept his promise.

I only went to take some screenshots from the last episodes, and I caught myself entangled in the plot yet again, I couldn't help but watch all over again the last 4 episodes bawling my eyes out... This drama ruined me, ahhh!

This is Mao Buyi OST: https://open.spotify.com/track/75zJPwNYSJVQ0LUm9z3fhw

The drama is amazingly good, the romance is slow burn as it should between master and disciple with a certain age gap and upbringing. The ending is as you want to interpret it, some found it happy, some less.

He onli lied to himself, he knows she is not her grandmother. Anyway if you want to know if SY killed him, no he didn't, he is still alive until the last episode.

Is Xiao Zhan really going to Thailand to host Produce Camp? If true, that might bow up the internet 😂

Take a trip scrolling Douyin, so many official accounts, like China Telecom, Hangzhou Tourism office, etc, are posting promotional videos using Xiao Zhan's dubbing from TLP. The drama is so popular 😁

LOL at all these people with the annoying fl comments that somehow "droped the drama at xxx eppisode", yet they are still here commenting on it, like are you sure you droped, because to me it seems like you are so invested at the point of being obsessed... 😭😂
