I was not sure if I understood your comment right, and if you dislike/like Lusi or not. I just think it's a pity because there are quite a few people who just decided to dislike Lusi because of problems others caused for her. She is really sweet to her fans always when I see fan videos. I hope you have some Chinese dramas to enjoy :)
Alright so I have watched both. ADOS is definitively a good production in terms of sets, cinematography, acting,…
I was not bored as well :) But first day there were plenty of comments who said they dropped it after 1 episode because they could not stand the grandma and evil aunts voices.
thanks. How is the store related and what evidence it revealed in the investigation
So in episode 2 you can see that Ling Buyi and his men goes to a fabric store, which is owned by the Ge family. The mean aunt in the Cheng family is from the Ge family, which means that the granduncle used this shop to launder money or something like this.
I want to know whether the Chinese entertainment industry is biased towards certain people because from time to…
Is the industry biased? For sure. Some actors are more sought after because of their previous hits that perform well on charts. Many wants to recreate the success of previous works. But clearly you are biased as well since you don't seem to think that it's a good thing that she has had so many works. Lusi herself has said that she loves to work, and so she happily accepts roles even when they have been similar to her previous characters. She do not believe it's a bad thing to play similar roles, even though some has criticized her for this since they only think she can do one sort of role. Maybe you have not heard of all the scandals other people have created against her? There are a lot of people who do not like Lusi because of these rumors people write against her. And she is not even in a very big company, so it is due to her hard work that she has been given to be in a lot of different series.
Some actors just film 1 project a year, while she has recently been working on at least 2-3 projects. Are there actors out there who are stuck in the lower budget dramas even if they re actually quite good actors? Sure. But it all depends on opportunity and how well their projects are received by the public and how good their management company is.
There are also some actors who don't take all the chances given to them simply because they don't want to be a second lead or support in a bigger budget drama, due to the fact that they don't get the same privileges on set compared to being a main lead in a smaller budget drama. There is a youtuber who talks about this particular problem. And you can make your own opinion.
You mean that some people say they are dating? That rumor has been going on for years and people just keep writing…
It has not been confirmed so I think it's just a rumor made by fans who ship them as they worked together in two dramas. But there have been rumors about her and Yang Yang as well for example so I take news like this with a lot of salt. Unless Lusi herself confirms she is dating I will just ignore rumors like this. Dating rumors are also quite bad for female artists as they get a lot of hate for supposedly 'stealing' someones idol. Also during the last few years Lusi has worked almost non stop so I doubt she has had time to date. Last year alone she filmed almost the whole year and during 2020 she said the she had only had about 5 days free.
Ep 1 : Question, at the end of the episode was LBY really praising FL? or did he imply whatever FL thinks at her…
In episode two she sent the haystack with fabrics to tell him that he should investigate the store the fabric came from, since it was related to her granduncle who hid in the haystack. And it was a roundabout way of telling him where to look for more evidence instead of just saying the name of the shop.
I need an opinion on whether to watch this drama or not . ADOS had raised the standard of chinese historical dramas…
Alright so I have watched both. ADOS is definitively a good production in terms of sets, cinematography, acting, a mature plot amongst other things. I did however not really feel anything for the characters, they failed to draw me in as I found the plot rather mediocre and not all that exiting. If you like a mature love story I understand why a lot of people enjoy it.
This one however I am more invested in, maybe because I am a bit biased since I like Lusi and Wu Lei, but I find that the plot here is much more interesting compared to ADOS. It's okay to disagree on this point. Here we have a young girl who has not been treated with any kindness in her whole life, and due to this she resorts to using her wits to try and outsmart her family members that wants to do her harm. Unlike Paner she does not really have any grand ambitions like owning a restaurant even though she is a girl etc. She just wants to live a good life and finally be loved and feel safe. The story starts with her parents coming home from the war after 15 years time has passed and though her father dotes on her, her mother finds her much to wild and unruly and therefor tries to curb her instead of showing her affection.
Our male lead could so far be said to be a bit similar to Qianfan, as he is dedicated to his duty, and not really interested in things out of it. He also has a complicated background, but it has not really been specified this early in the show. However due to some chance meetings he find himself intrigued by our female leads wit, even though it takes them a few episodes to actually meet. And then he falls hard.
When it comes to the sets and cinematography and directing I think the cast has done a great job. The different angles used is really great and there are some long shots that I find really impressively done. There is also more instrumental music compared to your regular show, which seems fitting in this case.
Some people dropped this after 1-2 episodes because the drama starts out with some family theatrics which people found "annoying". I however found the first episode really great, and I did not feel as if the characters made me want to drop the show. The number 2-4 episodes were a bit slower but I found that it was a good thing to establish how difficult the female lead had it even when it was just to live well with her own family. From 5 onward things definitively heat up and I found that it just got better and better.
So I would say try it out and don't drop it after just 4 episodes :) Sometimes the start is slow and then the rest is just the right pace.
And I knew something was up with the military maid when she was given screen time. But SS did well for her first…
She was such a cute girl that Miao Miao as well :( But I really thought that they did a kickass job the female soldiers and thought really well. I agree that the reason they lost Miao Miao like that is so that SS could experience what it feels like to lose someone. I was really glad Liangfeng stayed home, otherwise I felt like she would have been killed and that would have been even worse.
I liked the entrance of BY with the mist and then heroically saving the kid. I hope she makes it. He was very quick with changing his tone once he found out that SS was on the way to the city xD
The arrow scene was really well made. Lei Lei sure must work out a lot.

If anything there is more bias AGAINST Lusi then towards her.
Also during the last few years Lusi has worked almost non stop so I doubt she has had time to date. Last year alone she filmed almost the whole year and during 2020 she said the she had only had about 5 days free.
