Zhao Lusi looks excellent and I will watch her edits but the ML is downright old, creepy uncle looking and not…
I seriously don't know which part of William Chan looks like a creepy uncle. Is it his glasses? Or yours? Haha. He's very charming and based on what I've read, the Chinese audience love him. Younger actors may not have the weight to carry off this role as well.

While looks and talent are utmost important for an actor, so is popularity, sponsorship and network/connections.…
When she got blacklisted? If she got blacklisted, how can they air their drama? And how can they air it on national Satellite TV (Dragon TV) ? How can the chinese government medias praise her left and right? Please do more research before talk nonsense… she just has a fight with agency

People must have lost it...this man is still hasn't crossed 30s...he's 39. That's nothing and is definitely not "old". Zhao lusi is also 27 and a veteran in industry now. Both are mature. I understand criticism of acting but i don't understand severe criticism of a man for being 39 especially when Zhao Lusi has previously done dramas like dating in the kitchen. That pairing felt odd to me because at that time, she was 20 and he was very old for her. By now, she herself as well as her character in the drama is mature. Funny thing is, PEOPLE ARE BEING RACIST to the chinese in the comments when we see pairings with even more age difference in Hollywood. Even in korean movies, this age gap is pretty normal.
SHM declaring to anyone who'll listen that he's tried everything to get Xu Yan back, and not one of them has asked how he apologised or if he told her how he supposedly feels. Anytime he wants to approach her, it's through tricks and deception... Throwing money around, manipulating the people around her, inserting himself into her life without invitation... Everything BUT an honest moment with her where he acknowledges his wrongdoing and expresses what he claims to feel.
I can't stop feeling that his problem isn't that he lost the woman he loves, but rather just that he lost and he doesn't like losing. I'm seeing the direction they're going with this and honestly, it's not something I'm enjoying right now. Every scene with SHM makes me more irritated and that's really not what you want with your leading character.
Honestly I wasn't going to watch this bc the synopsis sounded terrible to me. But I wanted to watch and show my support for Zhao Lusi. And honestly even tho it didn't get promotions, it's doing amazing in ratings. The whole cast and behind the scene crew did so good.
And this proves our Zhao Lusi doesn't need an agency to promote her. She is good enough to be her own agency/manager.
I'm currently halfway through ep 23, and I need Hao Ming to LOCK IN with his attempts at reconciliation. He needs to actually apologize to Xu Yan and talk it through with her instead of whatever manipulative playing the victim shit he's pulling rn. I want to actually see that he's in love and not just that he's used to her being around. I can feel it a little, but I need more to actually support them being together. Him getting his frontal lobe back and grovelling a little might help that a bit. Also, the evil corporate villain plot was SO unnecessary in this show since we already have so much going on, but I hope that gets wrapped up soon, cause I need at LEAST one episode dedicated fully to their happy ending. But by the amount of filler they're putting into the last few episodes, I have a bad feeling that the ending is going to be rushed. I just hope we get express this weekend so I can get off this emotional rollercoaster and be happy that Lusi finally aired a drama after so long and patiently wait for the next one.
