She is actually better here IMHO. I did not enjoy her perpetually tragic expression in NIF2 when her backstory wasn't actually that tragic. I am delighted to finally see this gal smile!!!

OMG I would faint!
Moral of the story - guard the remote with your life. Best keep in hand not to be distracted by screen activity into letting go!!! LOL!!!

Hahaha.....Could have been worse.... like she grabs the remote from you, rewinds, replays in slow motion and watch noisily with you...

It appears random and that part was really not well done because everyone falls in love at first sight pretty much (eyes roll). But as I watch I am beginning to wonder if it was so accidental. This is one where the backstory takes awhile to reveal itself and you have to pay attention.

With a brilliant resolution, I loved it!!!

Its a sad time in life when your parents start revenging you for all the embarrassment you put them through while growing up!!!

Awesome, tyvm. :)

Yeah and you have to be careful with that. Like ExpressVPN which is the one I use doesn't have a China server so you actually cannot get into the China firewall. Actually I haven't found one that can get into China.

I like him a lot too but to my shock and horror it is my mama that is cyber stalking him!!! I know bc she shares my youtube account and it all comes up. .. Sigh - I just tell myself retirement must be boring to excuse her behavior...

It does pick up again after 40 but sounds like it may be too much a struggle for you to get there...

The Chinese version is cheaper than the international (about half the price) but it has streaming problems outside of China.

Sadly in Q1 although subscription revenue +30pct they lost about the same amount in ad revenue and bottom line loss was ~$300mm. They said Q2 ads still not recovering so probably will be similar hit on bottom line. We blame regulator all the time for drama delays but for things like the much anticipated The Wolf I suspect the platforms don't want to launch until they can get enough ad dollars behind it.

I think they all lose similar amounts of money but Alibaba and Tencent are able to hide the losses because their streaming business is not separately listed. But Baidu is better off selling iQiyi and Tencent and Alibaba/Youku are gonna both have to bid for it. Viewers eventually have to pay to watch so everytime I am upset I tell myself I am free-riding on billions of losses and I try not to complain so much - LOL! But I have VIP for Youku and iQiyi even though most of the time I don't have time to watch that fast but because I love drama I want to support and its cheap. I don't subscribe Tencent on principle bc I think their shows are more bad than good.

If only my tummy can look as yummy when I am chubby!!!

iQiyi lost $1,4bn usd in 2019 and 2020 may be worse because advertising is really bad. VIPs pay to watch so they get to watch first. It’s fair and truth is if not enough people pay eventually everyone goes bust and no more dramas....

Heh... then we must surely watch at least one to see what the difference is... in the name of research of course!!!

Indeed but how many tech billionaire wannabes have we seen in the black turtleneck... Everything changes and yet everything remains the same!!! LOL!!!

Do give it another look... if for nothing else, to see the other Ren Jialun! :)

Yes... I was taken aback at first but now its great.

There is attempted light humor but no, its a complicated somewhat dark story. Great fighting from the get go but the first two episodes just feel a bit off and then it comes together.
