Is 30 eps enough to adapt the novel? I hope there won't be cut to any important scenes.
Keep your expectations low .. then everything will be an interesting surprise ! In my opinion 30 episodes is actually extra. If they followed the novel fully .. there was not much story . Ideally 25 episodes of 40 minutes each is enough. That will keep the pace good , story tight and exciting
According to Qichacha APP, recently, the court issued an apology statement from Wei Moumou to Xu Kai. The statement indicates that Wei Moumou publicly published insulting and defamatory remarks about Xu Kai in response to queries on Baidu ( Google of China ) on 24/10/2022 , causing negative impact on Xu Kai and infringing on his right to reputation. Therefore, Wei Moumou publicly apologized to Xu Kai and promised not to publish or forward any content that infringes on the reputation rights of Mr. Xu Kai and others in the future.

25/6/2026 : Fashion Beijing XHS and weibo update ( 时尚北京)
Fashion Beijing July Issue Cover: #XuKai #FashionBeijingXuKaiJulyIssueCover #FashionBeijingMagazineCover
Within an 800-meter radius, a small town was trapped, and so was Chen Hui's life. He shed his gentle exterior, plunging headlong into the somber gray tones of a 1990s mining area.
There, he was no longer a gentle young master, no longer a passionate youth, but a person who protected love in the wrong way, an ordinary person "understandable in his actions, yet unforgivable in his sins." Good and evil tore at his heart, softness and obsession grew simultaneously.
At the moment filming wrapped, he said, "It felt like I personally sent off a passionate yet regrettable chapter of my life."
On this journey, Xu Kai no longer sought externally, but sank into his heart, observing the world, portraying his inner self, allowing his acting to grow inward.

Kai has faced so much cursing backlash and scolding from media , eSports players .. Just scroll down in this page , you will get the echos of the past still ringing ... So many haters ... Please may kai not face such humiliation again . No need for any season 2 .. besides the story reached its logical end . What's there to show in season 2 ?
30 episodes is actually extra. If they followed the novel fully .. there was not much story . Ideally 25 episodes of 40 minutes each is enough. That will keep the pace good , story tight and exciting

For Xu Kai, acting is a never-ending journey of self-cultivation.
From deliberate imitation to introspection, from creating flat characters to interpreting multifaceted humanity, he has always maintained reverence and sincerity.
He says, "Acting authentically is more important." More than being entertaining, he cares about whether a story can immerse the audience. So he tanned his skin, cut his hair short, shed all his glamour, and lived as a real person who existed in a mining area in the 1990s.
He didn't deliberately "switch" or force a "subversion," but simply quietly entered Chen Hui's predicament—feeling his timidity, accepting his struggle, letting every glance become a footnote to the character's inner world.
