LayarHijau— The Chinese entertainment industry has just witnessed an impressive historical milestone through the historical drama Pursuit of Jade (逐玉). This work successfully broke records by surpassing a popularity index of 10,000 on two giant streaming platforms, Tencent Video and iQIYI, simultaneously. This phenomenon is considered extremely rare as cross-platform distribution typically splits audience focus and makes it difficult for a drama to reach peak popularity on both services at once. This success places Tian Xiwei in a highly formidable position within the competitive landscape of young Chinese actresses.
In the drama Pursuit of Jade (逐玉), Tian Xiwei plays the role of Fan Changyu, a daughter from a butcher family with a humble background. The storyline follows Fan Changyu’s dramatic transformation as she survives harsh life obstacles until she finally rises to become a tough and authoritative female general on the battlefield. This role required deep character exploration of sharp contrasts, from the innocence of a market girl to the firmness of a strategic military leader. Tian Xiwei’s mature acting in portraying this transition has received widespread praise from both critics and audiences.

The economic impact of this drama’s success cannot be overlooked. Recent reports show that Pursuit of Jade (逐玉) managed to generate an average revenue of a fantastic 58 million Yuan per episode. With this massive achievement, Tian Xiwei is officially crowned as the first actress of the 95-er generation to have four drama titles with a popularity index above 10,000. Her collection of successes includes New Life Begins (卿卿日常), Guardians of the Dafeng (大奉打更人), and Moonlit Reunion (子夜歸), all of which became major market hits.
This brilliant achievement automatically shakes up the hierarchy of the 95-er actress generation, which has long been dominated by big names like Zhao Lusi and Yu Shuxin. While previously Zhao Lusi was considered the commercial leader and Yu Shuxin led through a loyal fanbase, Tian Xiwei has now emerged as a serious challenger with a record of work consistency that is hard to match. Tian Xiwei’s commercial value is also reported to have tripled, making her now on par with the elite group that is the main target for international luxury brands.
Meanwhile, the competition among the 12 leading 95-er actresses is heating up. While Guan Xiaotong continues to build a reputation through projects that emphasize artistic value, Wang Churan has strengthened her position as a fashion icon after being selected as a global brand ambassador for Dior. Names like Meng Ziyi, popular through The Untamed (陳情令), Zhou Ye in Legend of the Female General (錦月如歌), and Lu Yuxiao through Love in the Clouds (入青雲) also continue to apply pressure in the industry. However, for actresses like Li Landi and Zhang Jingyi who are known for their stable acting quality, the next challenge is to produce a phenomenal work that can match the explosion of popularity currently achieved by Tian Xiwei through the success of Pursuit of Jade (逐玉).
