Showbiz
What's Going On with Entertainment Fiction? Looking for Good Reads
Looking for books similar to "The Entertainment Industry’s Number One Sugar Baby". Please recommend something good. Everything else is just the same old plot repeated over and over. If you’re going to repeat things, at least give us something interesting! What’s happened to entertainment-industry novels? They can’t all revolve around Yang Mi and Dilraba Dilmurat...
Looking for Showbiz Stories About Someone Who Just Wants to Act in Peace!
I don't really want too much variety-show content. I want some high-quality scripts, with the protagonist mainly building their career and the romance taking a back seat to it.
Looking for Female-Led Stories About Transmigrating to a Parallel World and Copying Earth's Songs (Female Singer)‼
Are there stories where the female lead transmigrates to a parallel world and becomes famous by singing well-known songs from Earth? For example, songs by Jay Chou, Zhou Shen, and other famous singers. Please share some good female-oriented entertainment-industry stories!
Showbiz Acting Stories with No Couple
I'd prefer something career-focused, with sound values, a genuinely talented actor, and well-chosen scripts. I especially want to read about the actor's understanding of their roles and scripts, with well-written stories within the story. I'm not interested in romance, so I'd prefer no CP.
The Male Lead Is a Top-Tier Star, and the Female Lead Is Outside the Entertainment Industry
Looking for books like Top-Tier Star! The A-List Actor's Secret Marriage and Child Go Viral, and the Whole World Is Looking for the Kid's Mom.
Entertainment Industry Novels With Exceptionally Talented Heroines
I'd like a story that goes into great detail about the plots of some of the dramas the female lead acts in, and where she occasionally takes part in variety shows.
The Female Lead Must Be an Actress, Not an Idol! Ideally, Include Scenes of Her Acting.
No talent competitions and no girl groups. Variety shows are fine. Both leads should work in the entertainment industry. Sweet or angsty, either is fine. Are there any books like that? Why are all the entertainment-industry novels I find on Tomato about girl groups, or about characters who only appear on variety shows and never act? Those are so boring.
Finished Showbiz Novels, Preferably with Variety Shows
Sweet romance!!! Super sweet, the sweeter the better!! Ideally, both leads are badass.
Entertainment Industry Novels About Hardworking Actors
I'm looking for books similar to Working Part-Time as an Actress. I want a showbiz story with an acting-focused cast and leads who grow over time. They shouldn't start out as top-tier stars, but they should be exceptionally good actors.
Looking for a Strong Female Lead in the Chinese Entertainment Industry. Does Tomato Only Have This One?
I want books similar to The Top Female Actress of Chinese Entertainment. It is rare to find a powerful female-lead Chinese entertainment story on Tomato that is not set in a fictional entertainment industry. This is the only one I have found so far. Does anyone know of other similar Chinese entertainment stories with female protagonists?
Female Lead Has Just Entered Showbiz, With No Scandals and a Clean Image
Looking for Novels Where the Protagonist Directs TV Shows or Variety Programs. Movies Are Fine Too
No actors, please. I've read quite a lot of those and I'm getting tired of them.
Looking for a Story With a Fresh Opening That Grabs Me Right Away! Great Writing Is a Must!
Female-Lead Entertainment Industry Novels, With a Truly Dominant Heroine!!!!
I want showbiz stories, okay? No male leads! No male leads! No stories aimed at male readers!!!! I just want to see a female lead use works from the entertainment industry in her past life to dominate a parallel world! A female lead!!!
Modern Entertainment Industry Celebrity Fanfiction
Recommendations Wanted: Entertainment Industry Career Novels About Actors, Singers, or Groups, with Good Writing
Something traditional and down-to-earth, without a System or anything like that (or one that barely features). I don't mind whether there's a CP or not, but I'd like the focus to be on the career plot. Any recommendations? I quite liked The Salted-Fish Girl Has a Top-Tier Star as Her Biggest Fan, but I can't add it for some reason.
I'm Out of Books, Please Recommend Some
I'm looking for books like "High Martial Arts: A Comparison? I Can Beat the Empress Too! (When Kings Meet, Neither Yields!)". I'm in a reading slump. Any high martial arts novels with expansive worldbuilding?
Chinese Entertainment Novels from the Female Lead's Perspective
I really want to read realistic Chinese entertainment-industry novels with an actress heroine. I've never seen one from the heroine's perspective; they're all told from the hero's perspective.
Please Recommend Stories Where the Female Lead Debuts in a Korean Girl Group, Returns Home, and Becomes a Mentor 🙏
The female lead should be rather strict.

No-CP (no romantic pairing) female protagonist novels set in the Chinese entertainment industry are incredibly rare and genuinely enjoyable. Some novels have hundreds of chapters where the female lead doesn't continue working for the company as a financial backer, but this one features her knowingly organizing her own scheme and becoming the boss, with virtually no messy romantic subplots.
It's pretty good. No romantic pairing. The female lead, born in the 90s, is wholeheartedly dedicated to acting. It's a decent Chinese entertainment drama novel. She has a cheerful and decisive personality. From actress to director, every step she takes is correct, neither too fast nor too slow. The content is very engaging, and she wins various awards later on.
It's a good show; the dramas are mostly popular ones. The female lead is career-oriented and rises in status quickly. However, sometimes the portrayal of the female lead's status doesn't quite match the actual character, but overall it's good.
It's rare to find a female-led novel about the entertainment industry. I finished it and was completely satisfied. Although there are still some minor flaws, the courage to write about this subject and finish it deserves an extra star. I look forward to the new book.
It's rare to see a main character who doesn't cause trouble! It's great, I love it, please update soon!!!
