YuZheng has favourites and bias but he's famous for helping his own artists. He helps everyone except XK. XK was used by him to help others get job. Xu Kai survives results one after another through his own efforts. According to normal logic, company will support top artists because this is where their money pool is but not in XK condition. XK is natural money pool so his company is having leisure time doing work because profit come easily.

Hot Search. Promotion on multiple platform. Did you notice how Li Li got her own storyline and screentime can match the main leads? That was negotiated by YuZheng, their boss. This always happens to Xu Kai's dramas. His boss will buy scenes for his colleagues in his own dramas. Even sacrificed Xu Kai own storyline because he said Xu Kai can easily get job so it's okay to help others in the company. But he did it to every of XK dramas whenever he got chances. Abay wanted XK for ML so he traded conditions. If he's not trading for his artists, he will trade for company benefit like how he did for Snow Eagle Lord.

Tencent rarely provided marketing for their dramas, their main revenue is from Anime. They only provided marketing to those who signed with them (drama contract term). Production company of the drama and the main casts are the one who will do the marketing. Unlike iqiyi where their main revenue is from dramas so they have share in marketing for their dramas to support the image in front of their investors. Xu Kai's dramas mainly on Tencent due to Tencent buying his dramas, the obligation for the marketing is on the drama production and main casts company. If you look at the details of hot search statistics, he only had 20 - 30 hs per dramas (and these are low ranking) while other actors (popular one) usually will have around 100++ and some can even exceed 10k++ (mind you marketing are not cheap so high marketing might not return huge profit despite the dramas end up very popular). Despite low marketing, his dramas never failed to return profit particularly on overseas copyrights selling. See how he's the Global Ambassador for WeTV? This is the request from WeTV overseas. His dramas never failed to reach No 1 on WeTV during airing. That's why Tencent keep buying his dramas. The profit is guaranteed. For Abay, Mango bought the copyrights from Huace that's why they worked hard with promotion. Just some trivia here, his company bought more hs for Li Li (He RuiXian) and Xiao YiXiao than him.

Her comments are click-baiting. She can find all those CP posts where information is fabricated but couldn't find Hi6 video? She's fishy. Everyone should just ignore her comments in the future.

I think the acc is hate-bots. Her comments and replies are not normal. But people keep replying to her, deviated the discussion even further.

This is called cloud booking, it enables more "seat" for the audience to watch the drama. Because some might not want to spend on VIP to try out the drama. So this is sort of calling people to come and watch the drama, fans prepare "seat" for the curious audience. With influx of people "coming" to watch the drama, this will contribute to heat. If the audience getting interested after trying it, they might sign up for VIP to follow the drama airing. This activity has been done by other dramas as well, LYF2, Fox Demon, Story of Rose etc. Not just the fans doing it, the production also "open seats" for more audience to enjoy the drama. Xu Kai didn't spend money on hot search, instead he also bought "seats", this is more effective in calling people to watch the drama, rather than spending money buying hot search which is more costly and not effective. If I'm not mistaken, each LYF2 main casts reserve "seats" around 3k to 7k per person.

ML didn't snatched it. Their divorce happened because ML felt that she should be honest with her feeling, he even willing to concede to 2nd ML in case FL wants it. Throughout their 7 months separation, FL met 2ML many times due to work and 2nd ML did make approach to her but she rejected it while no contact at all with ML. Later on 2ML reconcile back with 2FL. ML's principal is for the people he cared is happy with him. So if their relationship fall apart later, ML will give in since no point continuing it.

😅

I heard Oath of Love got 50+ kiss scenes. Eternal Love S2 got 80+. but I didn't watch them so I didn't know.

It's haters vs fans ratings nowadays.

yes, it's not XK fans.

Actually it's not because they want their fav to portray JX. More like XK can only have CP and success drama with their fav.

yes, after 31 eps they gone towards turbulent times with the kingdom facing crisis and actually they smoothen the way Empress Hu passed her position to Sun. This version is better than Ming Dynasty where they make Hu as villain. This version is closer to the history gist.

Can we pin this comment so that when the blaming game started again, we can shove this?

try Iqiyi app, Viki app or Tubi app.

Ikr. The push and pull also exciting as it leads to each other understanding.

Yeah, applying modern mindset when watching ancient drama will lead to frustration. Couple with how cryptic and poetic they converse, it drives away interest due to hard to fathom what they are trying to deliver. For me this is the enjoyable part. plus seeing how they maneuver through restriction in order to live is really refreshing.

Low rating due to lack of romance and some of ancient dialogues and ettiquate are hard to understand. For me, this is enjoyable. It has more depth than just a romance.

This poster is atmospheric.

Yes, there's 1 time I lost the wish to a friend because something come up at that moment. That friend managed to wish our friend at exactly 12am and I lost just a few seconds...
