Loved the 2nd trailer a lot. It's quite intense. It's quite difficult for modern dramas to reach 30 k heat index on Tencent, but still hope that this drama will reach the 30k mark. Let's all support and promote the drama well especially since it's Lusi's last drama in her inventory. It'll take quite some time to see her again on screen after this drama is over.
August? If it’s August what drama then do Tencent have in stock to air after princess gambit? Perhaps the golden…
ZLS isn't soft banned. This news is being spread by YXH accounts and anti fans. If she were, then CCTV (Chinese govt. run channel) wouldn't post things related to her, mentioning her. Also she wouldn't be endorsing brands, or announced as GBA of Charlotte Tilbury during this time and also wouldn't be attending brand events freely where hundreds of people are present. There's rumors that she has terminated her contract with her agency. When discussions about the contract termination was going on, these kind of news (black hs) was flying around. Currently she isn't filming any drama because she's under medication which have side effects leading to poor memory, so, she can't memorize any script. Also her doctor said that there's a possibility of her illness being relapsed. Coming to release of dramas, a costume/ historical drama gets replaced by another historical drama. And a modern drama will get replaced by another modern drama. For e.g. Be passionately in love was replaced by Reborn. I might be wrong but this is the general pattern that I've observed.
Yesss these r the obvious things. we should trust n support only lusi n destroy this company completely
Yes, I too hope so. Just saw her friend, Zhu Rui posted pics of her 1 is Lusi's present pic and another one is her past pic where she's celebrating with her friends (difference can be found by looking at the hair color). Since Zhu Rui didn't caption the pics, there's high possibility that tomorrow there's going to be another black hot search saying ZLS is celebrating happily with friends while seeking sympathy. Mainland fans are kind of suspicious about Zhu Rui saying she's been weird, it's already been twice and they kind of think she's been bought by her agency(KU). It's critical time so she should have been careful while posting pics. C ent is completely messed up.
Yesss these r the obvious things. we should trust n support only lusi n destroy this company completely
Yes, we all want that. Hope she gets justice that she deserves. It's not going to be an easy journey. She might lose a lot of resources, endorsements. Even if she leaves the entertainment industry, she should get justice and the ones responsible for her nightmares deserves to rot in jail.
If anyone wondering about her agency and its CEO. Her agency's name is Galaxy Cool Entertainment. And CEO is Mars Li Wei. https://x.com/Team_BNior/status/1873949698811453940?t=LyUptFIAEgPA1_btwUwwjA&s=03 Her agency has already started using water armies and they have started to twist the narrative and put all the blame on ZLS. Also it's the beginning of the battle against the higher ups with immense power and there's possibility of all her Fanclub accounts being retrieved and go back to the control of KU(her agency). Many things can happen, if there's news of her being accused of tax evasion and many more, we shouldn't get surprised. Now people should keep fan wars aside and come together because the current situation is artist Vs agency. God forbid but it can happen to any actor/actress especially if they don't have strong backing.
Wish you a speedy recovery. Also hope that the truth will come to light, with thousands of rumors flying around and spreading like wildfire, blaming and accusing the sick of faking illness to gain sympathy, speculating and creating theories about her illness. Pushing the entire blame on her, buying hot searches saying she has emotional issues and so on. I don't know if humanity still exists. With so many speculations and theories, passerby will get confused or just simply follow the majority whether it's true or not. All these things could have been stopped with just 1 statement from the production company. But no, only when public completely believes in the surrounding rumors about depression, the entire illness is her fault by buying hot searches, blocking and banning the accounts raising voices, complete damage is done to her, only then they will release a statement. Whenever any actor/actress falls sick or gets injured while filming, the respective production company immediately comes out to give statements to stop speculations. But Almost Lover's production team is the complete opposite. I like Deng Ke as a director a lot. But after this incident, I don't like the human being he is. Being the producer and main director of the drama it is his responsibility to clarify the rumors. He doesn't have time for that but he had the time to update his status, "wish for world peace". Also being the main director he wasn't seen on set most of the times. Assistant director, Gao Cong Kai, when asked for explanation he immediately blocked the fans asking for answers. ZLS'S agency is one of the most useless one, ZLS fell sick on 14th Dec but they still made her work, when she severely fell sick on DEC 18, they took her to the hospital. In cent artists face black hot searches but their respective agencies brings down before they become hot topics, but her agency did nothing. Also it feels like she is being treated just like the way some actors/ actresses agencies treat their respective artist by buying black hot searches, ruining the reputation of their own artists when their contract comes to an end.
i dont think is youku fault. Social media platforms limited promo for Pearl. On Douyin, Pearl is blocked
ok, that makes sense. That production company is desperate to produce a hit drama even at the cost of sabotaging other drama and disregarding the drama cast and crews hardwork. Because all they care about is profit.

Exactly, to begin with they don't need to compete, although competition is inevitable but it should be done fairly. But despite all these low tricks TSOPG is doing well in charts. But the most surprising one was the douyin character charts one, with Lusi's popularity and her drama character, she should have been in Top 2 or 3 if not 1. These production houses or platforms just only care about their own profits and benefits even at the cost of sabotaging other people who equally worked hard as their own cast and crew. The good thing is that TSOPG is going to release on 3 TV channels, hopefully the ratings will be fair and the drama and the entire cast will be appreciated.
The Story Of Pearl Girl before it's premiere has now reached 6k heat popularity on Youku china app (the highest popularity for this year among all Youku dramas before it's premiere).
From the materials released by TSOPG team, OP made some connections and made a theory about the clip where YZJ…
From the clip, we can see that YZJ ‘steals’ the blood pearl which is given to DW by her mother but what is the blood pearl to YZJ cuz he is filthy rich why would he care about a single pearl? https://x.com/sleepless_kiddo/status/1851656338922999856?t=N6o6i4kKyr-tQrvVfY12vg&s=19 YZJ is the oldest son of the Yan family, Yan family ‘was’ the most famous jewelry seller back in the day they had amazing design and craftsmanship from this 👇 You can see the blood pearl on top of the list in the above mentioned link. About the BLOOD PEARL:- A tribute gift from Kang state in the Western Regions escorted by the Yangzhou Yan family, containing the Gulistan treasure map. During the escort, Lilong robbed and killed people to seize the treasure. One was picked up by the maid of Yan Zijiang's mother, and the other fell into Yuchi's hands unintentionally. So how did the blood pearl end up in DW's mother's hand? Cuz her mother is YZJ's mother's maid. https://x.com/sleepless_kiddo/status/1851656727407837212?t=KdAYmCQqmB8agHmSmVpVQg&s=19 She end up as a slave due to the fall of the Yan family while YZJ end up in the hands of the bandits who kill his family So after all this time seeing the pearl again probably gave him both hope and doubt. Then there is this clip where YZJ broke down after knowing that his sister is already dead so possibly after that he will also tell DW his story. https://x.com/sleepless_kiddo/status/1851657700175933818?t=GflDcT_lLrS0J_GIfxR1wQ&s=19 Now this brings in great potential cuz YZJ will feel a familiar bond with her, he sees her as someone with the same origin as him BUT she is her own person and it will make this story 100 times interesting. Yes DW has somewhat the same origin as him but her life is different. She long for freedom She longs for ability to be able to decide a life for herself! She never live a life in the Yan family in that Caravan like YZJ so how can she prioritize it over her own autonomy.

The pearl is covered with dirt and imprisoned, but dares to chase the heavens and the stars; the longer the journey, the deeper the ravine, and the more it shines, creating a legend.

People who read the novel said that Shen Haochen is Shen Haoming's brother in the novel.
