Jewelry Commerce, affirmation of women, Poetry without filter and the perverse world as sides of the coin: a remarkable series that has value as a reproduction of Chinese History, inspires and connects with the struggle of women in today's world, Beauty and cruelty come together take turns in a contra dance with life.

How many Duan Wus in this world! To play this spectacular character, there could be no other actress than ZLS: a graceful person, but incredibly vigorous in the fight scenes, a serene countenance, but so impactful when she gets distraught, she screams and cries with indignation, a discreet and introspective look, but pulsating and eloquent to express everything that is in the human soul. ZLS and DW are a perfect symbiosis.

Two aspects catch my attention in this series: its value as a faithful reproduction of a historical period and the focus on the lower classes of workers, especially on women's struggle for survival, autonomy and recognition.

The production of the series involved historical research based on works such as the "Historical Atlas of China" and shows in detail the Silk Road in the Tang Dynasty.

DW is a character placed within the Ancient History of the Jewelry Trade in China, a real world with which she interacts: this is genius. DW has a clear vision of the ground of life, a condition that gave her an unshakable inner strength, driving her actions within this real world.

The vast emotional universe, full of tensions that oscillate between brutality and sweetness, is balanced and well articulated. All the characters are solid in their characterization.

DW was dragged into slavery, but she emerged from that hell, like someone emerging from the sea, with a savage fury that did not take away her sweetness and ability to love. With undeniable self-esteem and determination, she used brutalities and setbacks as leverage to regain her own identity and assert herself as a successful and prominent woman. 

TSOPG is an inspiring story for women and is in tune with contemporary life, as women's struggle to assert their autonomy, their value, their prominent position in society still persists and is far from being merely fair.

DW is an inspiration for us to keep fighting...

Excellent! SOPG stands out. And you are right. Lu Si as one of the most versatile actresses is perfect for this.

I hope she will receive the awards she deserves for her amazing performance. I would not say I am part of any one fandom, but she amazes me every time! And after SOPG, nobody can tell me she is not talented and incredibly versatile. She does it all so well. Love her!

I hope so too! I'm not part of any group either, but ZLS has a fascinating charisma. I'm sure that TSOPG  has opened doors to more daring productions and innovative roles for ZLS in 2025. And we'll support her, wherever she is!

Exactly. I have other actresses I love for certain dramas but I have to say there is something about Lu Si that puts her in a special league. This is not to say I don't love the others for their work because I do. You say it best. She. has a fascinating charisma.
