Striking while the iron is hot is so important in entertainment whenever there is a breakout or buzz. It’s great seeing supporting actors and actresses get noticed but if one doesn’t quickly have a follow up then the momentum seems to die down fast. Cheng Lei was talked about so much after My Journey to You for his acting and onscreen charisma and he got the male lead role in Zhou Ye‘s next drama Legend of the Female General. But between then an now the furor has long since moved to the next it star to have a good drama performance and he’s in the currently airing Follow Your Heart and I barely have the urge to watch that for him. It doesn’t help they put in in an ancient Phantom of the Opera mask there and halving his visual intensity haha. But it’s here in the new posters for Female General so please don’t cover this man up anymore.
