Look at us being great!

Definitely their lower executives. Despite being big companies, Alibaba and Tencent are known for letting their startups and sub groups work autonomously so those executives will definitely be working overtime to cash in on a new investment.

Absolutely, Lusi has come a long way since her early works. She has definitely put in the hard yards but it will be challenging to take a role that isn't a rom-com or doesn't require her to be emotionally vulnerable. It will be interesting how she and her team manoeuvre it all. Because a huge backing can be both a blessing and curse.

Dilraba has a great deal of potential to extend her career reach. And now with her personal team taking more time to navigate the spaces for her to succeed, it's promising. And we see the results of that. Jaywalk need an overhaul of management because they have too many promising stars to not invest in proper scripts and collaborating with production/producers/directors.

Check out 38Jiejie, quite a few articles on that page. Most were dated late last year, but it's spiralled until TLB was released. My friend had to translate the Mandarin sites for me so I could fully grasp what the sites were saying. Her fans might be gushing but the anti-fans are always working over time especially on Weibo.

And yes, Dilraba is always the target of criticism, most of which are unfounded. And she takes it on board, she recently said that she no longer lets the comments bother her as much as it used to. She has a better team now so I am happy that she is now living her best life!

LMFAO not Sifeng cheating on Xuanji. All those Heavenly trials and that's what he goes and does :)

There's been a quite most recently. Much of its just netizens being nasty online and articles popping here and there. But it's had to push her management to make statements in order to put the rumours to bed.

The last time I read she was managed by Yinhekuyu Media who were acquired by Alibaba last year. They also manage Terry Liu who is in the new drama with Zhao Lusi. Considering Jack Ma (CEO Alibaba) and Pony Ma/Ma Huateng (CEO Tencent) are good friends and have collaborated in the past, it doesn't seem unlikely that a broadcasting deal would have been struck up between the two mega-companies. Each have stakes in each other's businesses ventures.

It makes sense that they would push her forward as she has gained quite a bit of traffic for her dramas lately and Tencent are always looking to bring about the new faces of the future.

I just hope they look out for her properly and that her management are keeping an eye out for her wellbeing and career developments. The industry is cruel and if they don't risk assess properly, she will be the one to suffer the most loss.

There's been so many since TLB started. It doesn't help that the smallest thing she does, netizens and critics point it out.

I just hope she looks after herself and that management do there job.

Tencent really is. Since the TLB, this the first time, I have seen her consistently make the top 10 spots in charts. We will see how this fairs, as this strategy usually starts off well, then the actors in question will get quite a bit of backlash as we see with Lusi now, as there's terrible rumours about her in circulation. And not the best kind. Time will tell. She's young so she will learn along the way and hopefully her management look out for her.

It's best to steady help them raise or if you're going for a quick capitalisation, make sure you make the right power moves. The industry is cruel.

Bai Lu is great. She's one I am watching closely for the next few years! She is definitely making the right moves. She and Li Yitong have similar career paths so it will be interesting to see.

Fam we hit 29K! I feel like a proud parent :)

She'd be amazing in a suspense drama.

thank you!!

Beautiful gown! Again, wish they had gone for a slick back hair do and different make-up

Does anyone have a link to the story?

The dress is gorgeous but as always a lot Chinese stylists always fall short of the hair and make up aspect of the look when it comes to carpet. I notice that their supermodels are usually the standouts because they always take risks

You Are My Glory slotted to be premiering on June 27th. Fingers crossed. Here's a trailer I believe. Judging by it, we are gonna get a bit of romance with Yang Yang. Yaaaaaay.

Her second choice seemed a lot more fun. That hairdo was just too messy of an up-do. They should've at least had it slicked.

I quite liked it but the big puff skirt wasn't the best choice. Had they made it more figure hugging, with a slight mermaid flair down the bottom and put her in a high ponytail, she would've looked more youthful.

They need to be more adventurous with her make up too. Add a bit of a blue hue to her eye shadow.

Damn I see we on our way to 29K. The power of the people have spoken!

While it does seem smart, business wise, to capitalise on the TLB's popularity now, and pair two of its stars, numbers will soon tell when production is done, censorship is complete just how well this series will do. I know Tencent will be all over it. Let's see what happens. Has anyone read the story?
