Showbiz: I Asked You to Act, Not Save the Country with Yang Mi!

A passionate tale of bloodshed, entertainment, resistance against Japan, and multiple heroines.

After waking up, veteran film critic Lin Yu finds himself a young actor in Republican-era Shanghai.

The Marco Polo Bridge Incident has just taken place. In an era when human lives are worth less than grass, can he just keep his head down and survive? No way!

He sees his fellow actors oppressed by Japanese collaborators and their backers, and civilians left homeless.

Lin Yu is furious. Acting can't save the nation? Then he'll show them what a real cultural bomb looks like!

From the start, he beats up traffic-star traitor Chai Kun, takes over a film company, and signs Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, and Reba to form an all-star women's resistance troupe.

One performance of On the Songhua River brings 400 million countrymen to tears.

One film, The Battle at Lake Changjin, leaves the foreign powers trembling.

What about the Japanese Kikuchiki's assassins?

Lin Yu sneers and combines his skills with the legendary Flying Dagger of Xiao Li: “My flying daggers are for killing beasts!”

Dai Li: “Mr. Lin alone is worth a hundred thousand troops!”
