The popularity and viewership of 'Pursuing Jade,' starring heartthrob Zhang Linghe and actress Tian Xiwei, have reached new highs every day. Yesterday, the 'latest figures' were released, showing the drama’s total views have exceeded 2 billion, with a ratings share as high as 55.1%. This puts it second only to the legendary drama 'The Knockout' starring Zhang Songwen, making it the runner-up in Chinese drama history.
In addition to Zhang Linghe gaining over 4 million followers and successfully holding his place among the top young leading men, other handsome actors in the drama—such as the main villain 'Qi Min' played by Deng Kai, 'Sui Yuanqing' played by Lin Muran, and even members of the 'Pig-Slaughter Squad' like Li Dianzu, Gao Qingchen, and Sun Kai—have seen their popularity soar as well.
Recently, both Zhang Linghe and Deng Kai appeared separately at the airport, and both were immediately surrounded by large crowds of fans, openly launching into a chase scene! Seasoned Zhang Linghe appeared in an overcoat, completely covering himself from head to toe while deliberately keeping his head down. Of course, he could not escape the discerning eyes and cameras of the fans.
In fact, since the airing of 'Pursuing Jade,' while he has been busy filming his new drama 'Returning Luan,' every day when he finishes makeup and heads to the set, at least several hundred people wait outside for him. In order not to disappoint his fans, he can only hurry into his car and leave. Soon, he will depart for Shenzhen to hold a fan meeting, and many netizens are looking forward to witnessing the 'spectacular scene' when the time comes. 邓凯面对人山人海的场面。An industry veteran of 8 years, Deng Kai tasted 'the sweet rewards' for the first time, but was completely unprepared. Just recently, as he set off for Changsha to record the variety show 'Hello Saturday,' a large number of fans arrived ahead of time to wait for him. Even as security staff formed a human wall, they still could not help him break through, and this chaotic scene was described by netizens as an 'arrest site.'
Feeling helpless, Deng Kai could only sit down and let fans take pictures, putting his hands together in a plea, 'You’ve almost finished taking photos, please go home and rest, you must be tired... Please, go back earlier!' Later, he simply hid in the bathroom to avoid the crowds; standing near the door, he couldn’t help but break down and shout, 'I’m suffocating!' Some fans even chased him onto the plane, causing Deng Kai to roll his eyes in exasperation in public—a genuine reaction that made many netizens burst into laughter after watching the footage.
