Straight Male Protagonist, Everyone's Favorite, No Romance. Emphasis on Straight and No Romance!!!
I want books like The Straight Male Heartthrob Blitzes a Tragic Romance (One-Sided Bidding). Ideally, the male lead should be very aloof. No teary-eyed, silly beauties, please.

The main character should preferably be the youngest member, and there should be no female lead. Um... did you not see what I wrote above? I want a boy band, meaning all men. I see a lot of people recommending stories where girls join the boy band. Well... first of all, thank you so much for the recommendations. Secondly, I don't want those.
Boy Band Survival Show Stories, No Romance, Career-Focused (Fanservice)
I'm looking for books similar to After Playing to the Fans, the Unknown Trainee Debuts as Center. Are there any idol survival show and trainee growth stories with a male lead and no romantic pairing? No System. The male lead can pretend to ship himself with someone for publicity, but it can't be real. He should be hardworking, ambitious, and driven, but not lacking in self-awareness.

I really love the author's books. The protagonists are all ambitious and competitive, like gods in a boy band without a romantic pairing. Other characters (except for minor villains) are also unique, not just stereotypical figures. The three books share the same theme and the protagonists' personalities are similar (?)
I devoured all of your new books in one go, and it's my favorite kind of talent show novel, hehe 😳. Xiao Gu and Xiao Ning have such amazing chemistry! I'm a cheetah cat now! I even came up with a couple name: Gu De Mao Ning (a homophone for "Good Cat Ning"). It's just not enough! Looking forward to more stunning performances from Xiao Gu. We love you, Da Vocabulary! 😘
My favorite boy band is learning their style. The protagonist doesn't follow the pure and innocent route of aloof beauty; instead, he takes the route of being bold, decisive, and courageous in his pursuit of power. His character also has a distinct boy band vibe, displaying genuine emotions while harboring ulterior motives.
It's so good! I've always loved protagonists who aren't overpowered but are ambitious, strong, and cunning. And then I saw the author—wow, no wonder I love it! Her first two talent show novels were top-tier on my reading list! 😂 I really love her character development and writing style. Highly recommend! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
I love this kind of ambitious guy who always aims for the center position! The descriptions in the story clearly show that Gu Heng craves the spotlight. I can't quite remember the author's previous entertainment industry stories, and I'm surprised to find it's the same author again! 💕 It's a pity there are so few forum-style stories; I prefer more forum-style ones.
Holy crap, I just realized it's this author's new work! His previous two books were absolutely amazing... Absolutely unparalleled online, except for him himself!! It's the one by Xiao Zhou... The ending was a bit strange; could you please release some extra chapters so I can think about it? ✌️✌️
The career-driven male lead is getting high marks. I think there are no major flaws so far, and it would be best if he remained without any romantic pairings. Please don't introduce any other members' romantic pairings. Watching Shi and Pei together is making me a little uncomfortable TT; I really want to see the main character replace Shi and Pei as the center and debut as the main center.
Good-looking, no-CP boy group audition, BL content, no female lead, protagonist is an all-around ace It's still being updated; I hope the author doesn't abandon the ending. Also, I hope you can continue updating after your debut. If that's not possible, I hope you can write two or three side stories.
1. All three books by the author are of high quality and substantial, clearly demonstrating a deep understanding of talent shows. The plots are all very well-structured, making the reading experience feel like watching and following a talent show, with a strong sense of immersion.
It's interesting, although it seems there aren't any real friends right now; it's either mutual exploitation or mutual distrust. But it's only the first round, so maybe once the rankings stabilize (like first place), they'll be able to interact with others more freely.
