You jinxed it (I'm kidding) but it just dropped again. such wild swings, someone can't decide.

Viki is 9.6. I'll take that over MDL. Viki is stable.

Someone here posted Maoyan results that showed ABAY as #1.

25000 for premier date is very good but need to climb to 28000 which is the line that separate the drama from the rest of the pack, need to see it rising in the first week

Her work is her life.

There is a reason ML wants her to join his company.

the difference between #1 and #2 is only .03 points. #1 aired 6/26, #2 aired 7/2, and #3 aired 6/21. It is still possible for Han Ting character to reach #1 since it just aired, not that it really matters, it is already great result for the character. I'm not sure I understood it right, but 9.01 might be Xu Kai's personal best for character popularity so it is already great.

I really like these comments I saw on twitter, they reflect how I feel:
"I love how hardline Xu Kai's character. No matter how much of a softie he looks in front of his crush, he can be truly rational and firm with his stance to the point that it seems harsh. But it is tough love."

"Even if the world would say Xu Kai bn a CEO is kinda like a typecast; I will still back him up … he eats this role; diligently"

The Douban user group is so low and Tencent heat index is only 25000, I thought this drama is just doing okay but the Maoyan webcast chart you showed says the network popularity index is #1 and then the other chart shows the market share of 4%! while the second places are 1% or below?! How can that be? I haven't heard that his drama is exploding or anything like that. Also, there are complaints it is not available in all regions and even Marcus said something about having to use VPN to access it. I'm going to wait for this Sunday results from Marcus, see how it ranked for this week. Usually, he makes predictions on his Thursday program based on the daily Vlinkage data.

Vlinkage 7/3/24 Broadcast Index, ABAY #1 83.13 points, The Tale of Rose #2 82.18 points
Vlinkage 7/3/24 Character Index, Han Ting character popularity #2 with 9.01 points
and Ji Xing #4 with 8.91 points
(note #1 is 9.03 points)

how can ABAY have more points than The Tale of Rose, that drama is very popular in China, isn't it?

In the novel, he told her that their paths are different, that it hurts him to not be able to help her, and he wants her to be the best she can be.

I like this comment:
"Han Ting thinks to himself: I am decisive and clever to control everything 😎; Actually: I enlightened her, and she started a business for me. No!!!! 😭"

Source: Douban user group:
" Xu Kai is so strong in the boss track"
"It's really handsome, and it's not greasy at all"
"Yao Zhiming had already seen it, but he didn't expect Han Ting to be stronger"
"Comes with extravagance"
"Because the luxury is natural"
"Xu Kai acts like something to benefit our eyes"
"Because the figure, appearance, and temperament are too top"
"Xu Kai is really super handsome. The whole person exudes a sense of Su!"
"It has its own domineering momentum"
"It's like a romance bully who came out"
"It's very foreign"
"It feels like he's a good fit for a lot of tracks! It's a wide play"
"Hard handsome guys, every role is handsome and takes off"
"Han Ting looks so tender here"
"Han Ting is handsome and steady, which is very reassuring"
"This picture looks like a professional chef hahaha"

Don't you think the synopsis says she works for top IT firm is inaccurate? It's not IT and she's not a technician. The description really downgrades the field that she is involved in and her work and abilities, although later her startup is more software side and narrowly focused on just 3D printing.

I love how they retained the lines from the novel but not necessarily under the same scenario as the novel but still maintained the essence of the thoughts from those lines. The drama so far has able to laser focus on the key highlights of each chapter.

The scene of him following her from behind with their hurried footsteps and the waltz music is enchanting. It conjures up the feeling of two partners dancing in tandem. It is my favorite scene thus far. Han Ting always has half smile on his face. I don't know if he's being smug or amused or both.

the brother from Court Lady is his cousin

I think in real life, the success rate of a startup is like 10%?

I'm watching it on kisskh and in ep. 6, Xiao says to HT "This Ji Xing will be your nemesis in your career"? Is this a translation problem or a foreshadowing?

Ep 5 we finally see the real Han Ting.
"You handed out your business proposals as if they were leaflets."

Krish728, how are you liking the pace so far? It's moving the story along pretty good, right?
