Are There Any Truly Female-Lead-Free Novels on Tomato? They’re All Flirtation, and I Don’t Want to Read That
Your Number One Showbiz Novel
Come on in and show some support for the books!
No Female Lead!! Truly No Female Lead, No Romance, Read Carefully!!
Don’t recommend ongoing stories with heroines. If a story isn’t finished and doesn’t say it has no heroine, ask the author whether there is one first. For "I Became Invincible After Rejecting the System", the author said it has one heroine, so absolutely do not recommend it. The requester really will get mad.
Showbiz Novels About Focusing on One’s Career and Acting, Preferably With No Romance or Ambiguity
Either the male or female lead’s perspective is fine. No entertainment-industry veterans like Yang Mi. The productions should preferably be original, and the characters shouldn’t act stupid.
Looking for Entertainment Industry Stories. No Getting Hated by the Whole Internet from the Start, and No Impersonation, Please
No Heroine, No Romance for the Male Lead, Any Genre
Male-oriented, no female lead, no CP, no flirting, no harem. No gender swaps. Don’t recommend anything with no gender, either. I want someone who is male in both soul and body, a man through and through. I’m not interested in no-female-lead stories that are basically a land of women. And don’t give me vague stories that merely claim to have no female lead. I’ll report bad recommendations.
Culture Copying! No Romance! No Brain-Dead Characters! No Showing Off!
I don’t care whether it’s another world or a parallel world, whether the protagonist transmigrates or is reborn, whether the lead is male or female, or whether they plagiarize stories or create their own! I just want an urban slice-of-life novel where nobody acts smug and stupid, something low-key without all those cookie-cutter villains. That’s it~
Looking for Showbiz Novels with No Romance, Similar to Perfect Idol
I'd like to read something like "She Roasted Every Has-Been on the Internet, and the Tipsy Queen Finally Made It (The Star-Chaser's Tale)."
Looking for Showbiz Novels Focused on Acting. Most Importantly: No Romance!
Male-oriented fiction, please! Can we focus on building a career for once? Why force in awkward romance? Romance isn’t the only way to make a story engaging, is it? Why do so many women have to orbit the protagonist?
Showbiz Novels With Lots of Songs, a 9.0 Rating, Over 10,000 Reviews, a Million Words, and No Tired Tropes or Cliches
Any Chinese Entertainment-industry Stories Set in the Real World, with No Alternate Universe and No System?
Showbiz Stories That Go from Directing to Big-Time Investing, with No Simping. Similar to the 421 Document
Any No-Romance Stories About Boy Bands? I Really Can't Accept Idols Dating
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.
Male Lead Reincarnates as a Child and Becomes a Trainee
Looking for books similar to "Oh My! The Charming Idol Is So Good at This!"
Finished Showbiz Novels, Preferably with Variety Shows
Sweet romance!!! Super sweet, the sweeter the better!! Ideally, both leads are badass.
Entertainment Industry Novel With No Female Lead or Romantic Ambiguity, Featuring Poetry and Book Plagiarism
Not danmei, not danmei, not danmei!
No Romance Pairing, Male Lead in the Entertainment Industry
No romance, male protagonist in the entertainment industry
Looking for Stories with No Female Lead: No Flirting, No Romance, No Sex, and No Double Standards. Thanks!
No CP = no romantic partner. No ambiguous relationships = no endless flirting and tangled feelings. No double standards = damn, the female side characters are almost always there, while the male side characters are responsible for all the bad things and get wiped out (an exaggeration). No XO = focus on your career, or else.
Looking for a Boy Group Trainee Story With No Female Lead
Entertainment industry
Looking for Urban Fantasy and Showbiz Stories with No CP……
Looking for books similar to Write a Song for Charity, Not One That Makes the Whole Internet Cry. I'd love more recommendations for entertainment-industry novels like this. In a nutshell, I want stories that use the most restrained melodies to strike the deepest chord of social empathy. Any experts have recommendations?
Entertainment Industry Male Lead, No Romance, No Narcissism
Looking for books like The Entertainment Industry Blacklisted Me? I Turned Around and Debuted in a Boy Band. I want an entertainment-industry story from the male lead's perspective, with no narcissistic women. The male lead shouldn't be greasy, sleazy, vulgar, or crude. He should be thoughtful, mature, and magnanimous, not petty, self-important, or pathetic. No CP, that's all.
Showbiz Story, No Romance, Male Protagonist, Exceptionally Talented
Looking for books similar to "Tea Time! The Laid-Back Academic Star Is Thrust Into the Spotlight and Goes Viral".
Singing Stories with No Romance
I'm looking for a good novel about singing. No CP, no flirting, no ex-girlfriends. Just pure career-building, please.

This is my first novel, and there will definitely be aspects of the writing style and plot that may not satisfy everyone. I hope you can be understanding. The author would like to first give a general overview of the book, because once the story outline is completed, the word count will be around 700,000 to 800,000, barring any unforeseen circumstances.
I've read up to chapter 63, mostly skipping around 😅 because I wasn't really interested in the mystery. The protagonist's songs were somewhat satisfying, but not many 😅 several were old songs I hadn't heard before, so I searched for them, but they weren't particularly good. But everyone has their own feelings; what I find unpleasant, others might like, and what others find awful, I might adore.
I finished reading it in one go and came here to give it a five-star review! It's a very inspiring, healing, and heartwarming novel; I felt very comfortable after reading it. One other suggestion: the songs chosen in the text were perfectly placed, but they weren't fully mentioned—just a few lines.
I'm still quite conflicted about the group song. First of all, the main character shouldn't be considered a member of the boy band, right? He only signed a contract for the show, but the other members should have participated in other shows together. The main character's connection to them is only this one show.
It's really good. Unlike other novels with perfect character designs, the protagonist in this book gradually improves himself, but the process feels very comfortable and not abrupt. There's basically no showing off or face-slapping; the balance between the development of the celebrity/actor/singer and their daily life is also good.
I've finished reading chapter 49. Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. It's very comfortable, peaceful, and has a slow pace. I especially like the protagonist's composure. The songs he chooses are all very good, and you can tell that the choices are thematic and logical. I think the speed at which he releases songs is just right. It's rare to see someone not releasing a lot of songs at once. The release frequency is very fast, unlike a plagiarist who writes a song every hour or day.
It's quite good. The main character's team gets along harmoniously, creating a warm feeling. The main character himself is also very well-developed—a highly intelligent and logical individual who exudes composure and stability. He doesn't act superior because of his past life memories, nor does he come across as arrogant.
Overall, it's a very engaging, non-romance-focused, purely career-driven entertainment novel, worth a second read. The male protagonist transmigrates and starts in a boy band, gaining popularity on mystery variety shows. He uses his memories of his past life in the entertainment industry to create music, release albums, hold concerts, act, and even shoot blockbusters overseas.
The protagonist's entry into the entertainment industry is relatively novel, and the protagonist's personality is calm and self-controlled. The plot moves at a fast pace, and several plot climaxes are both incredible and surprising. The author needs to revise the novel's synopsis.
The male lead in this book is exceptionally well-developed—calm, warm, articulate, and with high emotional intelligence. The songs he chooses are also excellent, reflecting his state of mind. Finally, he's not a character who lacks romantic experience yet can still write touching love songs.
