On April 2, Jaywalk Studio wrote a congratulatory message to one of its artists, Dilraba Dilmurat, for reaching over 40 million followers on weibo. They also took the opportunity to announce that her studio is officially open for business. It’s the first mention that Jaywalk Studio has made towards Dilraba Dilmurat Studio (nicknamed Di Di’s Office by Dilraba herself) which was established in early March, though there wasn’t any activity on its weibo account until recently.
Yang Mi has around 80 million weibo followers while Dilraba has the second largest number with 40 million. No wonder their company’s been working hard to promote her. Other Jaywalk Studio artists such as Zhang Bin Bin, Vengo Gao and Li Xi Rui each have less than 10m followers.

Omg, Same here!No offense to those who like dilireba but her acting skills are mediocre and she is not as talented as everyone sees her. Additionally, I don't find her very pretty, in fact she looks quite plastic to me. Just saying popularity doesn't make you a good actor, it is just to determine how large your fanbase is and how crazy your fans are over you.

For me her acting is good. She is a rising star or newbie but she will be polish as she do more dramas. I've seen Yang Mi's old dramas it's same as Reba when she started she is not as good as she is now. Yang Mi 14 years acting experience we can not compare to Reba acting as she is a newbie though she is newbie she gain popularity in a short period of time.

Dilireba is a weak actress that is the truth. But being a good actor and popularity are not related in c-ent. If you look at most popular celebrities both male and female, very few of them are even considered decent actors. What is sad is that it feels that most of them don't even try to improve their acting since they don't need to and overall standards for actors do get lower. Sometimes I watch a mediocre actor and go like well he was pretty decent compare to all the horrible ones out there. Anyways, congrats to Dilireba.

i agree that her acting isnt good but if you target her looks and call her plastic then i cant take you seriously cause she's been proven all this time that she's natural.popularity doesnt mean good acting, lost of top actress cant act, but they re still popular in chinese industry. Reba is still quite new, i think she's gotten better but still has a long way to go. she seems to fit modern drama more than historical ones

Some fans like her because she’s pretty. Some like her for sex appeal.

Dilreba is not a newbie. Quit with that excuse.
Her company is putting the majority of the resources on her. She climbed up too fast, which ended up hurting her performance.
She’s is very much like Yang Mi who is avarage at best. How fitting when Dilreba was said to be Yang Mi’s successor.

I agree with this. Don't know if it's the case for the person above, but too many people look at her face, see it's not what they expect for a Chinese person, and assume she's plastic. Fact is there are lots of pictures from her childhood online and she looks exactly the same down to the bags under her eyes.
As for her acting, she's been at it for a few years now so I wouldn't call her new. She needs work (As does everyone else bolded above. Yes, everyone). A lot of it. Especially if she keeps getting cast in these historical dramas that require more emotion). I think it's a shame that she rose so fast without having to put in the work to improve her skills and I hope she doesn't coast, but, as has been said, talent doesn't mean much and a lot of popular actors in c-ent aren't great including her mentor.

She was quite a scene stealer in TLTM.

I think she do really well with fashion and modeling. And her fans probably came from supporters of YM knowing YM is promoting DLRB.
Speaking plastic surgery and acting, DLRB was really decent and natural (both face and acting) when she first started in Sound of Dessert with LSS. She got really good dancing skills too.

LOL the person who started out, not looking pretty, not good at acting, that was ZLY. And I don't think her acting improve or anything but she got prettier and that was it…

Maybe DLRB really do need PS because people think your acting is better only when you're prettier. Can't people see that each and every guzhuang role she play were always the "quiet girls"? And of course quiet girls are very boring. Unless the scripting and storyline is over the top of your head, dumb storylines will make things even more dumb'er and boring'er. Not that DLRB couldn't attract me to watch her dramas, but the plots just put me to sleep!
And I don't get that ZLY play Chu Qiao as a very boring and quiet role too, the story was just as dumb. Yes, her fightings were also done with tons of slow motion too. So, everything was just like DLRB, no difference. But obviously ZLY is better look'in so she gets the praises, but me, meh…both were boring the same.

I think she just needs better dramas. Most of the top "little flowers" nowadays are not good actors at all but they were lucky they are good looking and met the right drama. But its gonna be hard since China is now limiting ancient dramas, and its where most actresses hit it big. Anyway she can always be like AB and maintain her popularity through variety shows.

SMH! It’s so unneccesary to drag down another actress. I don’t even know why you’re comparing the two when it’s obvious ZLY is the better actress. If you wanna compare, Yang Zi and GLNZ are more in the rank with Dilreba.
Dilreba has been stagnant as the lead. Her portrayal in TKW and TFD are pretty similar. Blame it on bad roles or scripts? Well…she picked her projects.

I love Dilraba! I love her acting and her personality (On Chinese running man). I enjoyed all her dramas and she's sooo beautiful. So happy my girl is so popular. Of course with fame comes hate and jealousy so whatever lol.
Excited for her new drama Sweet Dreams with Deng Lun. Please air soon!

Agree!
Many people question why we like Reba when her acting is so-so, and I think it's mostly due to her happy personality and being a great person in general. She brought so much and was so hard working on Running Man, but still got so much hate 🙁
Acting wise, of course she has places to improve, but I feel she is very good for someone of her age. You see little things she does the shows she's in the character and is in the mind-space of the role.
Sweet dreams could have been better if the director did a better job at cutting the clips (especially towards the end), but watching the behind the scenes was so funny because Reba and Deng Lun have such great chemistry!
Anyways, hoping she continues to do the things she loves and I will continue to support her <3
