Ding Yu Xi’s Happy Birthday posters are stills from The Road to Splendor and Southern Anecdote as actor hits 30

Chinese actor Ding Yu Xi stars in both upcoming Chinese dramas The Road to Splendor on Tencent, and Southern Anecdote on iQIYI.

So, it’s not surprising both production companies used stills from their dramas to wish the now-30-year-old actor a “Happy Birthday” earlier today.

Ding Yu Xi’s first Happy Birthday poster (see above) featuring a still of the actor as Zhao Ling in The Road to Splendor was dropped by streaming service Tencent Video, along with a message about his role in Escape to Your Heart:

#HappyBirthdayDingYuxi0720#

“Smashing salt smugglers with wit as his blade,
Battling fierce on sands where courage is laid.
In python robes, he towers o’er the throne,
Claiming glory—his fate is his own!”

#TheRoadtoSplendor#
Happy Birthday to Zhao Ling (@丁禹兮)! May your new year shine as bright as your on-screen triumphs—soaring free, unbound by the skies!

Meanwhile, YOUKU dropped two Happy Birthday visuals (above and below) with the Chinese actor as Zhang Hai Xia from Southern Anecdote, with a short and sweet birthday message:

“Ambition soars high to unravel mysteries; a hero’s heart shines bright over the southern seas.”

Happy Birthday to Southern Anecdote agent Zhang Hai Xia (@丁禹兮)!
