I checked with Grok: As Grok, my opinion is based on your input and my analysis. I agree it’s plausible for two engineers—one mechanical, one software, with industry experience—to develop software simulations for small, critical 3D-printed prosthetic parts in months, aiming to make prosthetics affordable for rural communities. This aligns with real-world engineering practices using CAD and simulation tools, and their high school medical robot project adds context. I’ve evaluated the scenario and find it technically feasible within the show’s scope.
Simulations use mathematical models to evaluate performance (e.g., stress, strain, range of motion) based on standard biomechanical data or assumptions about human anatomy. No physical human interaction is required.
Yes, two experienced engineers with mechanical and software degrees can design and simulate a small 3D-printed prosthetic part in three months as part of a startup’s initial phase. This timeline is realistic for a proof-of-concept or minimum viable product (MVP), which is typical for a startup aiming to demonstrate a functional design to attract funding, partners, or community support for affordable prosthetics in rural areas. Not needing a human for measurements accelerates the process, keeps costs low, and aligns with the startup’s goal of affordability.
IF she cut her hair, then how did she grow it back so fast?
her hair was neck length in the first half then several inches below shoulder length in the second half, she must have used hair extensions, and it does look natural and real,

People in the past had to grow up faster, lived shorter lives, and carried heavy responsibilities from a young age. Today, it's easier to stay young at heart even into your 30s. A 15-year-old in Ancient China emotionally and psychologically is not the same as a 15-year-old in modern China. I think like some say, as long as she acts mature and not like what you think a 15-year-old acts like today.
I asked Grok: "In ancient Chinese society, a girl's first period was a private sign she was ready for marriage. Families marked her shift to womanhood by preparing her for betrothal, though public ceremonies were rare. In ancient Chinese society, a 15-year-old girl marrying a 26-year-old man was fairly common. Girls typically married between 13 and 16, with 15 being a common age, especially after menarche (first period), which signaled readiness for marriage and motherhood. Confucian ideals and social norms emphasized early marriage for women to ensure fertility and family continuity. Men often married later, typically in their 20s (e.g., 20–30), as they were expected to establish financial stability, complete education, or secure a career (e.g., through the imperial examination system in later dynasties). A 26-year-old man was within the typical marrying age range. A 15-year-old girl marrying a 26-year-old man would not have been unusual and aligned with societal norms. However, marriage ages and customs varied by dynasty, social class, and economic circumstances."
I was browsing through the novel and happened to click on Chapter 76. To my surprise, the entire chapter is about cats, which fits perfectly with Xu Kai. "Have you never written a cat adoption contract before?” "...he could even draw a decent likeness of a cat in the middle of the contract."
I think that this airing in july will be more beneficial to the success of the drama.
The ultimate success of a drama will depend on the drama itself. For me, a gripping story, great acting, flawless casting and extraordinary chemistry will do it; of course, you also need good director and cinematography to help it along.
I was rewatching scenes from Royal Feast and I thought, as much as I want to hear Xu Kai's voice, but his acting is so rich, so expressive, so nuanced, so on point, his timing so impeccable that whatever voice they use is okay with me. It's his on-screen presence - that is the game changer.

Q: Which character's personality contrasts the most with your own? How did you accurately interpret it? XK: Chen Hui. At first, it was difficult to grasp and understand his nuances and the state he naturally revealed. It was like he'd shut himself off in a small world and then I tried to feel his inner world through his words, his thoughts, and what his inner world was like. Q: What attracted you to take on this script? XK; First, I felt his life was particularly sad but also a kind of finding joy amidst suffering. I wanted to experience the life of a different kind of character, no longer a knight-errant, a general, a domineering CEO, or a playful and funny joker, but to truly experience the psychology of someone around my own age. Q: Can you share your understanding of the character Chen Hui? XK: I think fate played a cruel joke on him. Actually, his fate was already determined before he even entered society. Then he tried to struggle, resist, and fight back. But in the end, he also failed. But this process is worthwhile. He is very intelligent, he has wisdom. He had some very advanced ideas for that time. I wanted to try experiencing what it's like to live this character's life where one misstep leads to another, the feeling of a butterfly effect. When we read a book, every word and sentence allow us to feel, to emphasize, and perhaps even cry, but when you immerse yourself in portraying this character, every line in the book is expressed from your own subjective perspective of the world. Every day you live is a day you yourself live. For example, today, we are filming here, tomorrow we will film there. For us, it's just shooting, but for me, in this role, this is my day. I think this is how I wanted to experience Chen Hui's world. Q: Are there any interesting things that happened on set that you can share with everyone? XK: The only thing I found interesting was that I went roller skating again. Q: What types of roles do you still want to try in your future acting career? XK: I hope I can try another role like Chen Hui in the future, a different type of character, but similar in some ways, because I haven't played one like this before, and it was so satisfying, so enjoyable to play. Q: How do you shape your characters? XK: I think you just have to sincerely feel it when you put in the effort, and when you don't, it is very obvious. If the audience is engaged, they'll know you put in the effort. If they feel your performance is fake or something, it means you only scratched the surface, and didn't' spend enough time delving deeper. Yes, sincerity is the most important. Q: Being discussed and evaluated is something every artist has to face. How do you deal with those negative emotions? XK: When I first entered the industry, I cared, I minded, I felt sad, and uncomfortable. Over time, I became numb, then accepting, and now I don't feel much at all. I learned not to worry about what others say. A friend told me something, I really liked, "If everything you do gets talked about, it proves you can do anything." Right? I think that's a really powerful statement. If everything you do gets talked about, it means you can do anything. Life has many things that can suddenly shift your perspective, like tomorrow and unexpected events. You never know which will come first. So, it encourages you to cherish the present. Just be yourself. Life is only a few decades long. Spend time with your family, work hard, and make yourself happy. Q: To better complete your work in front of the camera, you inevitably will be given different personas. How do you view the impact of personas on an artist's career? XK: The persona I envision should be one of positive energy. It's not about packaging yourself a certain way. You don't need to be incredibly great to help many people. Encourage and support others more. I believe this is a form of positive energy and that's what a person should represent. Moreover, a persona is defined by others' perceptions, not by how you present yourself. Many people think of a persona as having both positive and negative meanings, but it shouldn't be categorized that way. Everyone has their own unique shining point, and that shining point is your persona, but as for what it is, it's too broad. Q: What is the thing you most want to break through at this stage? XK: The thing I most want to break through is my age. I want to be younger. (laughs). I'd like to take things step by step and see as I go (I sense his desire to spend time with his parents). Q: Aside from being an actor, what other profession would you like to try? XK: To travel around the world, to be a brilliant soul painter, to be a solider. These are all the things I have always wanted. Q: How did you come up with the idea of doing a cycling livestream for your birthday? XK: Because I do a livestream every year on my birthday. I know everyone may be tired from work or under academic pressure, so I thought, let's all go see the ocean, let's go on a cycling trip. Q: Is cycling your usual way to relax? Do you have any other hobbies to relieve stress? XK: It used to be but not anymore because of people recognize me, some might follow me, or act in certain ways and I'm afraid, it wouldn't be safe. Covering my face, wearing a sealed mask, it's stuffy. I like to bask in the sun. Being all covered up, I can't get any sun, and I keep sweating. It's very uncomfortable. For fitness and running, I choose times when there are fewer people around. Q: How did you feel about experiencing being a pilot today? XK: The sun was just right. I wanted to take a flight. Q: Did you have a dream of becoming a pilot when you were a child? XK: I think every man wants to be a soldier at some point and a pilot. These are things we liked playing with as children. Q: As a "People's Transportation Aviation Safety Ambassador," let's talk about your understanding of flight safety, XK: Because my dad is a soldier, my education growing up emphasized safety. I was taught to look both ways before crossing the street, not to use one hand to hold my phone when riding an electric bike or bicycle, not to ride with my head down and one hand. There's no room for luck when it comes to safety. So, I think these things have been constantly reminding me since childhood, and I constantly remind my friends to be careful as well. The End.
Underneath that fun-loving nature, he's really just an "old soul." The spoiler contains the text from his People's Transportation Magazine interview.
Q: What types of roles do you still want to try in your future acting career? XK: I hope I can try another role like Chen Hui in the future, a different type of character, but similar in some ways, because I haven't played one like this before, and it was so satisfying, so enjoyable to play.
In a scene the fireworks formed Chinese characters in the sky. I wonder if that is accurate that China could do that in 13th century. I know they had that at least in the 1900's, I'm guessing China was the first to do it.
