What I posted was the current situation of the entertainment in China. Because production has been reduced, demands are less and competitions are high among actors in China. I don't think XK is the only one taking a time off because this situation affects every actors in China. I mean actors including actresses of course. You can Google with this search: is it true that the entertainment in China has slowed down a lot in 2026. You'll find about what I said above. In general that is the current situation and hence, it affects XK as well.

👍🤞🤞🤞

@Draco, that's odd...I was able to get the video to play for me on both mobile and laptop. If you're on a computer/laptop, try this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=7FtKWQinSiY

I wonder whether he'd be there or not. Usually his alasos (VorXukai, and the likes) on X would've announced it a couple of months before and it has been very quiet so far. If production starts taping in May, chances are that he is not going to be there most likely unfortunately. Regular members may change every year and it's not based upon last year. Note that this other young smart guy, i forgot his name, he was a regular member for a few years and he didn’t attend last year at all.

I posted here because there was a posting of the pay cuts in the entertainment industry in China. This is just a follow-up. This could also explain that there hasn't been news of new work for Xu Kai. Competition is fearcessly nowadays because of what the government in China is doing. This news came out into discussion on April 27. Pays is now 30% of what it used to be. Their final conclusion that all of this is happening is because the industry is planning to replace real actors with AI which i don't believe. However, I do believe that the pay is cut down to a very low level in comparison to the past... China's economy is not doing well currently.

This was on the news: the tv industry in China has gone down a lot in 2026. The actors pay have been reduced to 30% of what it used to be. So if you were making 1M, now, you only make 300,000... In other words, you're just making about 1/3 of what you used to get. It's not because that the economy in China is bad, it's because the dramas can get canceled by the government in the middle of filming or getting frozen after production and can't be streamed. So the main platforms are afraid to invest. They don't want to take risks to then running into the risk of failure. As such, they just go with the safe types of dramas and so most if them aren't good and people then complain. They said that so far in the 1st Q of 2026, they have produced like 28 dramas, so many actors/actresses are out of work. They said that some of the 90s young actors/actresses have left w/o work. Like one of the prominent young 90s actor was offered a script but got canceled and this happened 4 times to him. They said the 3 major platforms in China are: IGIYI Youkou and Tencent. They decide the actors, directors to go on a drama. They will stipulate in their contracts exclusively and if they don't comply, they'll be taken out. They said nowadays the most important quality they look on an actor is political cleanliness, then something else which i don't remember, the acting skill comes in 3rd. In the news, it says, although the acting people are having a very hard time in China right now, especially, the older generation, they are still better off than normal people...because many of the young population have given up in looking for a job and they just go on doing nothing, just sleeping at home or on the streets.

Yeah, I think Eight Hundred had performed betther than expected, 24060 heat index, it's not a bad thing. It was the #1 Web Drama of the week ending on April 26. We all enjoyed it. It's just Xu Kai and some veteran actors not a well known FL, so the results have been good. It was all on XK's shoulder I would say...So let's just enjoy it and a kudo shout to Xu Kai and the entire crew of this drama.

He might be your idol but definitely not mine, so I really don't care about your views. Xu Kai's style was enviable then, he's now past that onto more meaningful things. This is not your idol's page so go back to his to bluff about him all you want. You don't move me a thing nor I care on what you say! 😄😄😄. BTW, don't insult me by calling me blind, simply cuz I find your idol ugly. We all have different tastes and definitely him is not in mine.

I do agree too in that Wang Heidi copied Xu Kai's style in makeup and sometimes in hair style as in Xu Kai's prior 2-3 years ago. In a few pictures, just skimming, Wang HD got me confused for XK for just a few seconds. XK changed a bit nowadays.

Vlinkage for April 22 and 23: Eight Hundred tops 1st on Web dramas: https://x.com/Xkfangirl88/status/2047540717296496880
Chen Hui character moved from #12 to #10 respectively

💯

Agreed 😄😄😄

Of course it's worth to watch, this drama is the best that TXW has done so far. Xu Kai was superb... But you probably can't see that cuz you're already biased...so why do you bother to ask 😄.. You're definitely weird!

You may want to just do some research yourself or analyze things that you see on the Internet on Xu Kai than asking here because most (if not all) of the people here don't really know what is going on. You can check his status on X. Hopefully things will go better for him when his dramas like 800 meters, etc are shown. Right now to tell you the truth because of the silence and there's no activities for the past few months, things (as they appear) aren't looking too good for his career (no variety show and no new dramas to shoot). I don't think this has ever happened to him in the past 8 years. I mean definitely because of the defamation they did to him in August of last year, it has affected quite a bit his career and has stalled it. At least this is what I see it. I feel sad about it but that's the truth. People here will start calling me names but I am just speaking the truth and how I analyze the information that I see surrounding his career. Plus, he kind of looked depressed last time when they took pictures of him, lost a lot of weight and kind of looked down. Nothing will make me happier that I turned out to be wrong about him or that he would get great success in his next drama. He has worked very hard but he hasn't had the luck to get his career back up like in his first couple of years. This might be that his agent didn't help him for the most part. Anyway, just go to his X's alassos's sites and find information about him. Good luck to you and to Xu Kai!
I think Tencent may not have renewed his contract after he filmed 800 meters.
BTW, smelly rat whose username starts with U, refrain to respond to me and stay away from me!

Did you mean the user whoissilmoy? I don't know who she is or it might be a he... It sounds like a her to me🤷... As to what she meant with what she said, I noticed she likes to mumble incoherently at times, so I am as you are...at odds on what or why she said. She would be the best person to tell you😄

👌🤗 ???

Shut up @UEbe, you're stinking so much smelly rat 🐀 that every time you open your mounth i have to open all the windows around me. You love to start a fight, don't you rat 🐀 to spill your venom? I'm not interested to hear your response or whatsoever so save it for your midnight snacks with the breadcrumbs from the actual humans in your house😄😄😄. BTW, didn't you ask everyone not to be engaged with Mandilparajili's topics, so why are YOU HERE, READING HIS/HER RESPONSES?? This is in the same mood that you commanded the other forists in this forum... You're so ignorant!

👍😄😄😄😄
