Another chart GOTD is topping is the Paid Best-seller Ranking in Tencent Video. It's the only drama in this list and GOTD variety show is the only vs in the list. As of 1/21, GOTD has placed 3rd in the domestic animation history. It will be noted that the membership base of TV dramas in Tencent Video is much smaller than that of domestic anime, thus topping this chart is a great feat for GOTD. https://x.com/WangHediFolder/status/1881579711283020133
Here are some discussions about this in the platform: "is this drama really that strong? It can actually surpass Martial Universe..." "GOTD sells far more express packages than regular TV dramas" "GOTD supporters are mostly 30 - 45 yrs old. This group of ppl has strong purchasing power, and WHD fans are also willing to spend money lavishly"
Comedy/drama isn't OK w/ any artists. So i'd like to commend Dylan in GOTD for successfully embodying his role.…
Dylan is a rare breed of actor who excels in comedy, action and drama. This drama showcases his great acting talent. Though he has already shown it in his previous works, like Love Between Fairy and Devil, this drama proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that HE CAN ACT, something his envious haters keep refusing to admit. Another thing GOTD shows is that a high-quality drama can withstand a heavy smear campaign. Despite the 200-million-rmb smear campaign lobbied at this drama by Dylan's envious bullies in C-Ent, this drama prevailed, having topped Kuyun viewership charts for 3 weeks , even after its finale aired. Regarding the FL, I too, was dubious of their pairing at first, but I was impressed with her acting, pulling off a role of a seemingly spoiled but kind princess to perfection. Moreover, she and Dylan know how to kiss 😊
With "rated low in China", do you mean the antiquated Douban scoring? The reason is because this drama was attacked by a 200-million-rmb smear campaign. Many people in Chinese Entertainment are envious and/or threatened by Dylan's grassroot popularity; he's getting choice projects from actors with powerful backers. Nevertheless, it topped viewership charts during its run.
the color black and white also raised questions for me but I thought I am becoming obsessive with all the details…
Gosh, I seriously need a rewatch. I can't remember that the man in black was harvesting the national fortune then. Seems like Didi's beauty is overpowering my comprehension. The only thing I can remember in that scene with the man in black is how beautiful Didi is ðŸ¤
But I've been wondering whether the reason the dragon is drawn to Xu Qi An is because of the national fortune in him or whether he has royal blood.
Thank you! I confess I didn’t fully understand it either! Now everything makes sense!🌹
I wish there is an episode-by-episode explanation of the drama. I’m sure I’m missing some details that never occurred to me. I didn’t even think of a book having a qi 😔
it also reached 1B views I think on the 32nd or 33rd episode.
What that hater said and the fact that GOTD became a hit just emphasized how successful this drama is, earning the distinction of being the first male-centric drama not starring ZRY that became a hit. In fact, not just a hit, but a blockbuster hit.

Wow! One of Didi's most powerful haters, who said male-centric dramas, except those starring Zhang Ruo Yun, become flops, must be raving mad of envy and embarrassment now, lol
This explanation of what happened between Xu Qi An and the Wilderness book made me realize there are many amazing things happening in the drama I'm oblivious of: "He used the method of looking at qi, which is the method of the sorcerer. There was a scene where he suddenly seemed to think of something, and then he took out the talisman paper. Here he suddenly thought of what his second brother said, that this was a book from the Si Tian Jian. Since it was a book from the Si Tian Jian, he must use the method of the Si Tian Jian sorcerer, so he used the method of looking at qi, and sure enough, the qi in the book appeared. At first it was white qi, and after entering the body, it went around from Shen Shu's body, and after coming out of Xu Qi An's body, it became black and white qi, which means that Xu Qi An can carry two different qi at the same time, and then there is a synchronous action, where he and Shen Shu exerted force together, and then successfully hit a palm, which means that now he is no longer controlled by Shen Shu, but he can control Shen Shu and let Shen Shu's power be used for himself." https://x.com/4theLoveofDidi/status/1879906763258094021
A firm believer of quality over quantity, I'm fully satisfied with the romance angle of this drama. GOTD is male-centric and mystery-driven, so I didn't expect much romance. But every interaction between ML and FL is titillating, from him falling in crush with her at first sight in ep 6, then her gradually developing feelings for him and most recently, their non-cheesy way of confessing their feelings in ep 34. ML's confession: "Without you, why would I need a rank?" ML's clarification: "I don't want to be your friend" FL response: "(Blissful smile) Be careful! I'll wait for you to come back!"
Best part is that both ML and FL know how to kiss, all sweetness and heart. Their kisses are among very few onscreen kisses where I didn't go "ewwww!"
