The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.
Estimated: filming began in Foshan on 24 July 2026 with an 80-day schedule, which puts the wrap around 12 October 2026. Bai Lu's last Tencent drama, The First Jasmine, premiered about eight months after wrapping (11 October 2025 to 9 June 2026), so this uses about 10 June 2027. Entertainment posts guess late 2026 to early 2027 for this shorter 16-episode drama; that is unconfirmed. Re-date when filming wraps and again when Tencent Video announces the date.
The drama's encyclopedia entry: Tencent Video and 承皓影视, the cast and billing, 16 episodes, the 1995-1999 Guangdong setting, the slate history and the 24 July 2026 start.[1]
The First Jasmine premiered on 9 June 2026 on Tencent Video and CCTV-8, about eight months after its wrap; the basis for the estimate.[1]
A Weibo[1] post on the official word that filming would start in Foshan on 24 July: Tencent S+, 16 episodes, an 80-day shoot, Li Muge directing and Dong Runnian on the script.
Says the shoot is mainly in Foshan's Nanhai district, with Shunde and Chancheng locations, over about 80 days.[1]
Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most. A picture that shows something else, or shows it badly, is looked at too, and moved down or replaced.
