Ning Xiuxiu ([[Yang Mi]]), the daughter of the wealthiest man in Tianniu Temple Village, was abducted by bandits on her wedding day.

Synopsis
Ning Xiuxiu (Yang Mi), the daughter of the wealthiest man in Tianniu Temple Village, was abducted by bandits on her wedding day. Her father Ning Xuexiang (Ni Dahong), unwilling to part with his farmland to pay the ransom, instead arranged for her younger sister Ning Susu (Xing Fei) to take her place and marry Xiuxiu’s childhood sweetheart, Fei Wendian (Zhang Tianyang). After escaping and returning home, Xiuxiu was enraged by her father’s decision and cut ties with him. She then married Feng Dajiao (Ou Hao), the farmer who had rescued her from the bandits’ lair. Learning to work the land, she gradually came to understand the profound significance of the soil to peasants. Later, inspired by the revolutionary ideas of Du Chunlin and others, she actively guided the village women to break free from feudal constraints and organized fellow villagers to combat bandits, resist Japanese invaders, and support the military. Through countless trials, Xiuxiu ultimately reconciled with her father and discovered her own purpose in life.[6][7]
Production
Development
The series is adapted from the novel Qian Quan Yu Jue Jue by Zhao Defa, an author from Rizhao, China. The original work won the 3rd People’s Literature Award, the 4th Shandong Provincial Excellence Project Award, was shortlisted for the 5th Mao Dun Literature Prize, and was selected as a key project in the National Radio and Television Administration‘s Outstanding Literary Works Adaptation Initiative. The series depicts the evolving fortunes and intertwined destinies of three families—the Nings, the Fengs, and the Feis, represented by Ning Xiuxiu, Feng Dajiao, and Fei Zuoshi—across two generations on the land of southern Shandong from 1926 to 1986. The villagers of Tianniu Temple have a long history of sustained agricultural cultivation.[8][9][10]
It was selected as a key project of the “Qilu Literary and Artistic Peak Plan” and included in the 2025 “Great Dramas on CCTV” television series lineup by China Media Group.[11][12]
Filming
Filming locations for the series included Yinan County in Linyi, Donggang District and Renjiatai Village in Rizhao, as well as Feijiazhuang Village.[13][11] The series released its concept poster and announced the cast on April 23, 2024,[1] and wrapped filming on August 5 of the same year.[14]

Reception
On Yang Mi’s portrayal of the character Ning Xiuxiu, Zhao Defa, the novel’s author the series is based on, wrote: “She brought Xiuxiu to life. Her nuanced depiction of Xiuxiu’s shock and loneliness after misfortune, her bewilderment and hatred toward her father, lingering feelings for Fei Wendian, gradual acceptance and growing affection for Dajiao, as well as her learning and integration into farm life—all were portrayed with meticulous detail.”[15]
Critical response
Critic Di Hanwei from People’s Daily noted that This Thriving Land strictly adheres to “the narrative center of land ethics, from which all major conflicts and plotlines unfold, depicting a temporal landscape where agrarian civilization and modernity clash and intertwine.” He described the series as a passionate call for a return to the spiritual homeland of modern people: “The characters’ profound connection to the land, their life and death, love and pain on it, evoke a primal memory deep in the genes of contemporary people—a longing for ‘roots’.” Regarding the characters, he views Ning Xiuxiu as “both inheriting the resilience and maternal nature of Chinese rural women and radiating the light of spiritual awakening that transcends the limitations of her time—an individual who actively fights against the storms of fate and seeks self-realization within the framework of land ethics.” Meanwhile, Feng Dajiao embodies “responsibility, duty, and optimism.” Their relationship is described as “a quiet yet deeply powerful, warm current in the midst of impoverished lives and turbulent times, one that can still melt viewers’ hearts today.”[16]
CCTV commentator Lu Jianing described This Thriving Land as an ‘epic of ordinary people, brimming with earthy charm,’ praising its non-stereotypical characterizations: “The series features various round characters—moral standing isn’t determined by class, and diverse personalities are restored from class representations to vivid individuals, with personal dispositions shaping their destinies. The creators portray these characters with empathy, acknowledging historical limitations rather than easily judging their choices from a contemporary perspective.”[17] Critic Dai Qing from Wenyi Bao described This Thriving Land as “an epic of the people, ceaseless and enduring,” one that profoundly portrays farmers‘ “deep-seated connection to the land—a bond etched into their very bones.” Regarding its adaptation, she believes the series “toned down the original work’s depictions of class struggle and violence,” thereby transforming the novel’s “raw and gritty style into something warm and bright.” About the characters, she finds Ning Xiuxiu “particularly outstanding for her credible and relatable spiritual growth,” and she identifies the love-after-marriage story between Ning Xiuxiu and Feng Dajiao as “the most important plotline and emotional thread of the entire series.” On a cultural level, Dai Qing notes that the series “retains a wealth of folk elements from the original novel, such as the Xuegucang (踅谷仓)[a] folk songs, the legend of the iron ox, and farmers’ agricultural economics, which further highlights the rustic charm and Qi–Lu culture, making the era and regional qualities of the work more distinct and vivid.”[19]
Viewership
The series achieved both high broadcast ratings and online streaming numbers, reversing the declining viewership trend for long-form dramas.[20] It premiered on CCTV-8 on August 13, 2025, recording a cvb single-day rating of over 2%, with a peak rating exceeding 4%[21]—and consistently ranked first in its time slot. After its simultaneous release on streaming platforms, it topped the charts on multiple data platforms including Kuyun, Lighthouse, and Maoyan. According to Yunhe Data, its viewership market share exceeded 46.1%[22], setting a new industry record for 2025. Its single-day effective playback exceeded 100 million, topping the daily playback chart of any series in the recent three years. The “Yunhe Data Character Screen Dominance Index” for Yang Mi’s role as Ning Xiuxiu surpassed 1.2 million on August 21, 2025, making it the first character in 2025 to exceed 1.1 million on the index.[23][24][25] On iQiyi, the series’ popularity index broke 10,000 on August 16, 2025, within 65 hours of release, and reached 10,761 on August 19, becoming the second-highest in the platform’s history.[26][27][20]
Impact
Due to the popularity of This Thriving Land, iQiyi‘s stock price rose. As of the closing bell on August 20, 2025, it had increased by 17.09%.[28] The series has also fueled a surge in tourism to its filming locations in Shandong, with Ning Manor—the home of the character Ning Xiuxiu—now experiencing a visitor boom, as crowds swarm to take photographs at the site.[29][30] According to Jingshi Live, the number of visitors has doubled compared to the same period in 2024. Key filming sites, such as Ning Manor, Fei Manor, Feng Manor, the “One-horned Bull”, and the rolled Jianbing—central to both the scenes and the cuisine in the series—have been restored. Additionally, multiple plot-themed photo spots and professional guided tours have been added to provide visitors with an immersive experience.[31]
The series has also popularized the Shandong dialect beyond its regional boundaries. Expressions from the drama such as “俺知不道” (I Know Not) and “俺也是” (me too) sparked a wave of online imitation, giving rise to several internet memes. Audience engagement included learning phrases such as “扎觅食汉” (a hired farmhand or labourer), “拉呱” (chat), and “夜来” (yesterday), and blending them with the MBTI concepts of “i人” (introvert person) and “e-人” (extrovert person) to form the new term “俺人” (I-person, used as I in pronoun). This has exposed the Qi–Lu culture to a broader audience.[32]
The series also revived the public interest in danshen, a Chinese medicinal herb long praised with the saying “a single herb has effects equivalent to Siwu Tang Wan“. The drama’s plot, in which the protagonist Ning Xiuxiu grows this herb and leads her fellow villagers to increase their income and combat disasters, brought it back into the public spotlight, generating widespread attention.[33]
