Zhang Ling He and Tian Xi Wei’s ‘Zhu Yu’ passes 1 million reservations – lovely visual drops
Zhang Ling He and Tian Xi Wei’s upcoming historical romance drama Zhu Yu (aka Chasing Jade) has passed 1 million reservations on Tencent, with, sadly, no premiere date in sight as yet.
A new Zhu Yu visual was dropped today via Tencent’s Weibo account, though, celebrating the Chinese drama’s first 1 million reservations.
The visual features main leads Zhang Ling He, who’s latest drama, Our Generation, premiered today, and Tian Xi Wei who recently did a brilliant job as the annoying but ultimately cute Princess Lin An in the superb Guardians of the Dafeng.
Tencent Video also commented about the interest in the upcoming C-drama:
#Zhu Yu# Tencent Video Pre-orders Surpass 1 Million
Snow falls on shoulders, lanterns glow in thousands,
A single glance, two hearts beat as one.
In life’s most ordinary moments,
Silence speaks louder than a thousand words.#Zhu Yu# has reached 1 million pre-orders—can’t wait for the premiere!
Starring: Zhang Ling He (@张凌赫z on Weibo) and Tian Xi Wei (@田曦薇) (in no particular order)
They then reminded C-drama fans to reserve Zhu Yu on Tencent.
Zhu Yu‘s 1 million reservations announcement follows on from the Chinese drama’s trailer, which was released internationally via WeTV’s X account on April 26th.
Before you get excited about a potential Zhu Yu premiere date, however, be aware the C-drama only finished filming in mid-April, so a 2026 premiere in the second quarter at the very earliest is probable.
We’ll keep you updated as more Zhu Yu information is announced. Including whether it sticks with its Chinese title — Zhu Yu aka 逐玉 — or gets an English translation title ‘Chasing Jade‘.

The cinematography on this one looks beautiful and, can I just say, the pairing of Zhang Ling He and Tian Xi Wei is a masterful decision. Don’t you agree?
