The female lead's performance is quite comfortable, but several dramas have the same hairstyle and similar acting styles. In every drama, she must get drunk and go crazy. It's a bit aesthetically fatiguing. The male lead looks decent, but he's just too pretentious in his acting. That's a common problem among most of the current idols in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Can two people with different values have a successful relationship? If one side compromises, problems will inevitably arise. The conflicts between Lin Xi and Xiao Yi Cheng are quite evident. Fortunately, the option of giving up their future prospects was bypassed, and I must say Lin Xi's courage is truly admirable.
FairyZhao1 year ago rating:9.7
The drunk scene is like a breakthrough in the intense emotional tension, giving Lin Xi an excuse to be reckless and granting Xiao Yi Cheng a long-awaited happiness. Even in the sober world, the reality remains cruel. Even if Xiao Yi Cheng wants to take things further, Lin Xi's timely withdrawal leaves no room for negotiation. The progression of emotions is fantastic.
Mugen1 year ago rating:8.2
The conflict between work and emotions lies in the difficulty of balancing love and career. Neither Lin Xi nor Xiao Yi Cheng is willing to accept the other person changing their ideals and life trajectory. Maybe temporary separation is the best answer. Reuniting and falling in love again later will be a more natural and compatible connection from personality to soul.
New1101 year ago rating:8.8
The drama revolves around a back-and-forth dynamic between the two leads. Just when Xiao Yi Cheng starts to thaw a little, Lin Xi withdraws from the ambiguous game. It's clear when we immerse ourselves in the storyline, but I really wish these two would get together in the next moment.
BookishFriend1 year ago rating:6.7
I really like Lin Xi, a capable and adaptable female protagonist in the workplace. Despite her exceptional job skills, she never becomes arrogant or conceited. Instead, she authentically portrays the status of a working person, being diligent and confident in her profession, while also understanding the importance of humility and restraint in dealing with interpersonal relationships. She is a mature and charismatic professional woman.
SongoftheSea1 year ago rating:8.8
This drama is well-crafted in terms of its plot and dialogue. It delves into meaningful discussions on various social issues. The conversations between the male and female leads go beyond trivial romance and focus more on the rapidly changing industries in our society. It provides a unique perspective that resonates deeply.
SelfConqueror1 year ago rating:9.6
I really like the character of CEO Xiao. He's handsome, wealthy, and talented. He's also very loyal in relationships. Even after eight years of breakup, he still can't forget his ex. When facing Lin Xi, he puts up a strong front but surrenders in his heart. He may seem domineering, but he's actually just deeply in love. Where can one find a man like him?
Joann1 year ago rating:6.6
I really resonate with Lin Xi's current work situation. Even if you have excellent professional skills, you still have to put aside your pride and endure personal grievances in order to maintain clients. I'm sure her gastric illness is probably a result of years of entertaining clients and drinking. If any fellow workers have had similar experiences, please raise your hand.

You guys are translators, so you should know about "Xinda Ya" theory, right? Can't you update your theoretical knowledge a bit? What was that opening cocktail party all about?
That artificial intelligence competition between humans and machines had me scratching my head. Can't you include some more obscure classical Chinese texts? "Tian Xing Jian Jun Zi Yi Zi Qiang Bu Xi" is too common. You're translating it as if it's from "The Matrix"...
And since your machine is so advanced, why bother with simultaneous interpretation? Just give every guest a device on-site. It would be a lively advertisement, much better than a simple press conference...

I can understand why Lin Xi rejected Xiao Yi Cheng's confession. There are indeed considerations on her part, such as her desire to work at the United Nations. The breakup and subsequent reconciliation, as well as the changes after their reunion, are issues that need to be realistically considered by both of them at the moment.
Wave1 year ago rating:8.9
Let's start over." "I'm sorry." Lin Xi's considerations are actually quite realistic. The reunion after the breakup makes her more determined not to delay each other. Mr. Xiao has a long way to go in his pursuit of his wife. Let's spare a brief moment to feel sorry for Xiao Yi Cheng.

Just finished watching the latest 11 episodes. After "Blooming Flowers," there's a drought of new dramas, so I decided to watch "The Interpreter." Honestly, most of Mango TV's modern romantic dramas feel toxic. The filters are as fake as ever, with fast-forwarding scenes and game background music.
I'll give one star to Song Qian, she's still quite beautiful, but why hasn't her acting improved at all? (She looks cool while translating, but her emotional expressions are stiff.) Personally, I feel like her performance in this drama is not as good as in "Next Stop." Maybe she should try changing her hairstyle, as it feels like she has the same look in several modern dramas.
One star for Chen Xing Xu after losing weight, but his character is truly too childish and stubborn... I can't help but criticize. Although both dramas are pretty bad, I'd say the other one he's doing at the same time is better.
In 2023, the two Mango TV dramas that kept me engaged and that I liked were "Where the Wind Blows" and "Revelations of Pretentiousness.
As for Mango TV in 2024? What's in store?

Both dramas airing on the same day aren't doing well. This script is even worse than "You Also Have Today." The male lead, the male lead's company board, and the female lead's subordinates, many of them seem like lunatics. Does the screenwriter really understand the reality of the workplace? The plot is just too ridiculous.
Both lead actors' performances are average, compared to "You Also Have Today," Nine Days' performance here is slightly worse (since they aired at the same time, it's inevitable to make a comparison).

Chen Xing Xu's looks in this drama are almost on par with Gu Xiao Wu, haha. But as a graduate in studies, I do feel a bit awkward. I hope to see more brilliant s like piecesforpeace in the future~~~~
Patrick Star1 year ago rating:6.2
The problem lies not in the acting skills of the male and female leads, but in the director and screenwriter. Since the workplace aspect occupies such a significant portion, they should have written it well. However, what kind of workplace did the screenwriter create? It would have been better to condense it into a six-episode reunion drama. The pacing of this show is a major issue. I don't know what it's trying to convey at times. Is it intentional to have several seconds of Song Qian's sad face without any movement? It feels like a waste of time.
DrElijah1 year ago rating:9.2
Everyone is concerned about Lin Xi's affairs, and whenever asked, it's always "I don't have feelings for her." But Xiao Yi Cheng demonstrates the thoughts of a man through his actions. Don't guess, who could have imagined that behind the cold and aloof CEO facade lies a tsundere straight guy?

Li Grandma is the cutest, and surprisingly, she plays Fei Qi Ming quite well. Everything else is so cliché, especially the accidental collisions between the male and female leads. It's either someone falling onto the bed or being embraced in someone's arms. I can't help but roll my eyes and say, "Here we go again." The current short comments are somewhat interesting, but they lack the human touch and feel like machine s.
HNY1 year ago rating:6.6
The first few episodes were okay, but in the middle, it became a bit hard to watch. The male lead is a bit childish, and the female lead behaves so annoyingly in front of him. It gives me the feeling of one of those situations in real life where you reject someone's confession, but they continue to pester you, twisting things around and forcefully arguing their case. It's so irritating to even think about it. Especially just now, in Episode 12, when the guy said, "You have feelings for me, otherwise why would you avoid me, bro?" I clearly rejected your confession, and you directly moved in next door to me. If I'm not avoiding you, then who am I avoiding? It's just so frustrating! Help!

Watched two episodes, it's alright, but I don't have a strong desire to continue watching. The director didn't make it visually appealing enough; urban dramas should have beautiful visuals. The plot of reuniting broken relationships is decent so far, and I haven't noticed any major flaws, but the storyline isn't gripping enough. It lacks attraction and highlights, feeling a bit dull.

Wu Zonglin1 year ago rating:5.1
I've watched up to episode eight, and it's really disheartening to see the female lead forcing her subordinates to work overtime just because of a date. I sent you a message early, but you only checked it after work. And even after watching it, you still want me to work overtime. This drama is not suitable for working-class people to watch; it's distressing. It's more suitable for bosses. Negative review.
ExplosiveMind1 year ago rating:9.3
Although Grandma Li's original intention was to help Cheng Yao suppress her rival, CEO Xiao, by intentionally saying that the West Lake Vinegar Fish made by CEO Xiao had no taste, her mouth was honestly picking up piece after piece. It seems that her assistive will is not very firm, and she could be easily turned at any time.
AnonymousAstro1 year ago rating:5.6
Episode 8 abandoned/Regarding the part, it's still vague chanting of slogans and the AI's confrontation with others is still about romance. The plot of reconciling after breaking up and falling in love at first sight with the male lead is not that great, and the female lead's acting is quite monotonous. Although they are completely different characters, there is hardly any difference in their emotional expressions compared to the doctor role she previously played. Although there aren't any extremely cringeworthy moments, there's nothing compelling enough to keep viewers engaged.

As a professional translator, when I first saw this drama recommended on the webpage, I couldn't help but mock it and even complained to my roommate about it. After watching a seven-minute analysis video on Bilibili, it was no surprise that the screenwriter has no understanding of the profession. Can't they stop associating it with and wasting resources?
Momo1 year ago rating:6.5
Initially, I would have given it a 3-star rating. The character development for the second female lead is just poor. I don't expect someone who grew up abroad to necessarily be open-minded or anything like that, but come on, it's the 21st century, it's already 2024. The screenwriter portrays the girl as shy in front of the person she likes, to the point where she can't even bring herself to speak up during her menstrual period, and she keeps emphasizing that she weighs less than 50 kilograms. Fei Qi Ming doesn't look well; he appears a bit aged.

It's not hard to understand why Xiao Yi Cheng is so bold in pursuing Lin Xi. It's not only because he has realized his own feelings, but also because he has seen Lin Xi's love for him. Even if adults don't say it out loud, their love can be communicated through their eyes. From the moment they reunited, the two of them have already emitted the pheromones of love.
