weren't they wearing VR glasses, how could they recognize each other outside the game?
Here’s the thing: the VR technology shown isn’t purely virtual. The players physically go to the game space, dress up, and embody their characters in person. VR only enhances the game environment—it doesn’t replace physical presence. Since they’re actually there on set, it’s entirely logical that they can see and recognize each other in real life as well.
So in the VR game, do they see each other's real faces? So does the ML recognize FL every time?
Here’s the point: the VR technology in this setting doesn’t mean the players are physically absent. They are actually present at the game location, choosing their characters and dressing up in person. The VR only overlays the game world onto a physical set. So yes, they can see each other in costume, because they’re there in person—the VR simply enhances how the game space is perceived.
My view differs from the popular opinion on forums that Hu Xiu instead working as a subordinate in the ML’s company, should've joined the SML’s organization. I disagree with this stance.
The SML’s Zhuling Company is notably more ambitious and politically driven, with increasing engagement in strategic maneuvering. While such an environment is not inherently negative, it can be stifling for someone who values the essence of the work itself—designing, studying, continuous learning, and professional growth. Hu Xiu’s priorities align more with craftsmanship and skill development than with navigating corporate politics.
In contrast, the ML’s company provides a more dynamic yet professionally focused environment, with significantly less/none emphasis on sabotage, scheming, or power struggles. This makes it a healthier space for Hu Xiu to grow. Moreover, the ML is an architect, which creates strong alignment in professional ideals. The FL looks up to him both technically and intellectually, allowing for deeper discussions and meaningful professional exchange.
The ML’s reserved, introspective, and non-cocky nature further supports a balanced and respectful work dynamic. Overall, Hu Xiu being a subordinate in the ML’s company is not a disadvantage but a more compatible and sustainable professional choice for her development.
Your comment seems internally inconsistent, which is why it stands out. You state that you’re uncomfortable…
I didn't mean to be combative or overly technical. I just articulate my thoughts the way they come. When I refer to versatility, I’m speaking in terms of role construction rather than surface traits. She has portrayed, among others, a bright high-school “sunshine” character, a modern CP fan transmigrated into a fictional narrative, a femme-fatale assassin, an autistic character in Blossom of Adversity, dual identities such as Ming Yi/Ming Xian, and more overtly strategic or scheming roles in historical dramas. These roles differ substantially in psychology, behavioral rhythm, and emotional expression, even if they may not register that way for every viewer. Of course, audience reception is inherently subjective. If those distinctions don’t align with your criteria for versatility, that’s completely valid. We can comfortably agree to disagree.
I don’t know what it is about the FL but every time I try to watch a drama that she’s in, I just lose interest.…
Your comment seems internally inconsistent, which is why it stands out. You state that you’re uncomfortable with people posting negative remarks about actresses who can genuinely act, yet you proceed to do exactly that—regarding an actress who is widely acknowledged for her acting skill. LXY’s reputation is built precisely on her control of micro-expressions, emotional restraint, and character immersion—qualities that are often cited in professional and critical discussions of acting craft. Disliking her presence or not connecting with her performances is, of course, a matter of personal preference. However, personal disengagement is not the same as an absence of acting ability. What your comment appears to reflect is not a critique of her skill, but a lack of alignment with her acting style. That distinction matters. Framing subjective disinterest as a limitation in her craft contradicts your own stated position and unintentionally reinforces the very kind of commentary you say you oppose. Recognizing the difference between “this doesn’t work for me” and “this cannot be acted well” allows for a more consistent and fair discussion—especially when speaking about an actress who has repeatedly demonstrated range and versatility across varied roles.
started pre-med partly because of this show. After that initial influence wore off, I found myself deep in this field. There's no glamorizing it now; it's just the grind of studying
Check this out… guess our xiaoxiao really won over the interviewer 🤍
