• I think she's in a difficult position as she can't refuse Yu Zheng or else she will get black listed by him and this drama is produce by him. I think he wanted her and Was ang Xing Yue to star in this series. Like his many victims, those who tried to break away from him after getting famous found it quite hard. He's trying to milk out all his top stars as much as he can.

  I do think she does need a break. Though being in this industry is so cut throat so it's best to make all the money you can while you're still young. As actresses are not as desirable anymore after they turn 30s. The rising generation like Zhou Ye or Zhao Jin Mai will soon take over or they already has.

  As much as I hate Yu Zheng, some of the dramas he produced were quite decent. I never grown to love Joseph though. I like him in some series. He has been in many dramas but he has never made an impact on me. He's like the reliable boy-next-door but not the one you fall for kind of actor for me. Maybe it's because of his boy-next-door look that I never took hold.

  • Yu Zheng is her boss, why would a boss block his biggest money making artist

  • I think Wang Xing Yue would have been better. What happened?

• She is surely the hardest working C-drama actress out there right now. It's like non-stop for two years now.

• I am thin Bai Lu must have seen how short lived actress career live can be...regardless how popular they are. Bai Lu film Keep Running with Angelababy and watch how AB get blacklisted suddenly. I bet it must affect her somewhat.
  Since she is young, she will work as long as there is good budget dramas. And in time, she will slow down by naturally.
  Just my thoughts. I cannot speak for her of course. I personally wish she takes a break and return to acting with new energy and dynamics.

  • Typical dyslexia correcting Typos: I think Bai Lu must have seen how short lived liuliang career life can get. She is still young...

  • I'm also seeing a lot more folks seeking to reap profits quickly than passion for performing art in Cdrama industry. There used to be some really good C dramas a few years back. But now they look more like crappy made-in-China products on Walmart shelves. LOL.

    • I agree...sadly. Harder to find good C-dramas. Some TW dramas are good now.

    • TW dramas? I rarely watched TW dramas although I was from there. LOL. Can you recommend some for me to take a look? Thanks.

    • @Somebody
      I'm not the OP.
      Almost all of Taiwan's dramas that have come out in the last few years got high to very high scores on Douban and Douban take them as Chinese productions so they're displayed together with the China's productions.
      I don't know if you're a subscriber of Netflix but Netflix got excellent Taiwan's dramas and their catalogue of Taiwan's dramas will increase even more.
      Taiwan's dramas have the freedom to touch subjects and themes that Chinese productions can not touch. The acting is suberb and the production is from the highest quality.
      I can't make suggestions because I don't know which genres you're into.

    • Gourmet Affairs
      Small & Mighty
      Oh No! Here Comes Trouble

      Just naming afew..there are more.

    • @Jiao, thanks for the information. It helps. I literally have zero knowledge of modern T dramas. I don't even know T dramas are on Netflix too. My memories about T dramas stay at Meteor Garden & F4. LOL. Taking T drama as part of Chinese production is as ludicrous as CCP taking TSMC and Taiwanese semiconductor as a Chinese company and part of China GDP (couldn't help LMAOing). Chinese are so baffling shameless!!!!!

      @HL, thanks a lot. I'll check them out. Perhaps I can find something interesting to me while waiting for new K dramas to slowly roll out.

    • @Jiao, I'm more into fantasy, mystery, and suspension. Legal and criminal genre is fine. I'm not so much the one for romcom.

• Poor woman. She keeps getting forced into these dramas. And now this ML. Yikes.

• I personally think artists need a break from time to time, I got bored seeing the same actors over and over no matter how good they are
  I really love Zeng Shun Xi and I never had a problem with his acting,I watched many of his dramas and really enjoyed them

• I understand why actors don't take breaks, another reason being you don't know when editing finishes, if your drama passes censorship, and when it will air. You must churn out as much as you can to stay in the public eye and relevant. A disservice to their hard work is when their backlog of dramas air at the same time and compete, obviously they were filmed at different times.

• Are C actors rotating to costar with her? LOL. She's everywhere, so boring.
  Koala's last comment about Kdrama vs. Cdrama is amusing. It reminds me of infrequent higher-class trains than lower-class trains run in every 10-15 minutes in Taiwan. LMAO.

• I like seeing her and it’s nice to know that she is in demand.
  However, in light of what we have come to know about Xu Zhengxi’s case, I hope it’s not another case of an agency grinding their star into the ground in order to make as much money as they can. If they consider her an asset, not just a money-making tool, then appropriate rest would be of the essence. Not just to ensure her physical and mental wellbeing, but also to maintain a certain level of quality in her work.
