Best show for 2024

Love the acting of Zhao Lusi,she brought the vulnerability and strength of a woman. I also appreciate the ending because her struggles to have a hold in the Pearl businesses,came true. The love story angle wasn't the focus of this show. I wish that she has more shows that showcase her acting strength. I enjoyed the BTS and the cast.

Love's Ambition is the best show for 2025

When I watched this show it was by accident coz there was no advertisement. I kept checking on Tencent every week. Anyway, I was so drawn by Zhao Lusi's acting, she was so disciplined, poised and matured. I have to re-watched every episode 3x, because there are so much to take in like the plot, acting, cast chemistry,clothes of Xu Yan, music & need to read English subtitles. After watching I became pickier on selecting other dramas. This show had the quality of Kdrama. I'm dazzled & grateful . I hope they make more high-quality shows like this. I truly love both of these shows because they showcase strong female that are wishy washy nor tolerate being abuse. The first Chinese drama I watched was Love like the Galaxy and since then I watched/followed Zhao Lusi. Her role as 15 years old Niaoniao who didn't get any love from her mother, grandma nor have friends was able to succeed in life to grits, wits & kindness. That also reminds me of Xu Yan who was also abandoned by her parents but got all the unconditional love from her grandma, and she turn out to become a successful entrepreneur & able to find true love. Both characters are so imperfect/ flawed but never make it as alibis to become evil, greedy & immoral. I can also relate to them, and it helps a lot that Zhao Lusi is the one who portrays those roles, if it's not here I will not love it as much. I hope people just support her if not don't invite to rally against her, she already in so much stress w/ her agency. Thank you

LOL show

This show is so hilarious from the male lead, his assistant and the quirky Zhao Lusi. I though Zhao Lusi will be in the background due too many veteran actors especially the male lead. Surprisingly, she held on to that character very well. I was bit hesitant with the age gap chemistry but as usual Zhao Lusi is able to connect with her partner. The ML is very known to be a serious actor but his funny here and had a comfortable sparring with Zhao Lusi. The funnies guy was the male assistant and his bantering with his boss is superbly funny. I love that Zhao Lusi's favorite hobby had shown her which is cooking. She is very funny. I like the episode in the market were people avoided her due to her moods & frugality. Zhao Lusi's always have a very enjoyable chemistry with all the cast. I believe the director of Love's Ambition portrayed as Zhao Lusi's uncle here. This show is my top 6. I peed laughing in this show. I highly recommended and re-watched it again.

I have watched this show twice and I still love it. Zhao Lusi is a very strong and wise heroine, the er martial arts are convincing. I love their fight formation especially the Phoenix. Zhao can play roles like a high schooler, cutsie, funny, serious, princess and hopefully someday as an Empress and General. I fell in love with Chinese drama because of Zhao Lusi #1. I pray she will get better and stronger. One thing I love her as an actress because of her screen presence and she is the only one who can make me cry, laugh, angry to the villains and emotions.

I had watched this show 2x. It's a lighthearted show which I like. Zhao Lusi is very cute, quirky, sassy & charming. She has a fun chemistry with the whole cast. This is my top 6-7 favorite shows of Zhao Lusi. I truly love all her shows, but I have some favorites. Her acting is very natural, the make-up is not too much flour and her chemistry with the lead star is funny.

Best show for all time

I watched this show 4x (2 YouTube and 2 or 3 in rakuten). This is the show that makes me an avid fan of Zhao Lusi. She captured my interest due to her dramatic act, funny and smart. Some actresses plays similar to NN but their facial expression is void of emotions. The cast was fantastic especially the grandma,mom, emperor and chunky guard. This show contains a perfect formula of success. They have a good director, beautiful and smart script and strong cast. I will watch this again every year!
