Transcribing Famous Works with Taste
I'm looking for novels by a literary copycat, set in ancient times, the Republican era, or modern times. The lead can be male or female. I'd like something with a bit more taste. I'm tired of stories where they just write pop songs or shoot commercial films, or come up with some lines like, “One petal, two petals, three or four petals.” Are you telling me Han Yu, Su Shi, Du Fu, and Lu Xun never existed?

It's alright, no major problems so far, but the plot feels very familiar. Also, I personally don't agree with the "abandoning business for literature" route. Given the historical context of the early Republic of China, this path isn't suitable for the protagonist, a time traveler with the original body's identity. However, since it's part of the core storyline, I'll just take my opinion as a comment.
Not bad, it has that feeling of following the literary giants of the Republic of China era back then. However, the protagonists in Lao Wang's books are a bit softer, and they believe that survival is the most important thing. The protagonist of this book is much tougher, and it also shows the integrity of a literary person. It feels more exciting and thrilling to follow.
Having read this book, I am deeply impressed by its exquisite language and profound themes. Looking up from the pages, one feels transported to the early years of the Republic of China, experiencing a surge of intellectual ferment. The characters are passionate and sometimes turbulent, and the plot is thrilling, directly touching the heart. It is truly a masterpiece. The beginning was alright, but the later parts... Speechless. What kind of book is this?
I've given you a tip, author! It's really well-written, comparable to the great writers of the Republic of China era. By the way, are the main characters' wives and concubines limited to Duan Qirui's daughter, Lu Xiaoman, and Lin Huiyin? Why not include Zhang Jingjiang's daughter too? 🤭
It's well-written, not the kind of mindless wish-fulfillment story, and the pacing is very comfortable.
The plot development was quite good, especially the author's profound mastery of classical Chinese, which made the dialogue between the two characters very engaging, with sharp and witty language. However, the classical Chinese debate was also quite lengthy, failing to fully express the author's true purpose and allowing for a better understanding of the debate. I hope the subsequent development can be further improved. Keep up the good work, author!
This is a highly literary and thought-provoking work that touches on law, politics, military affairs, and sociology. However, such a low rating is an insult to such a fine work. I hope the author can persevere, and I hope those who enjoy it will give it a fair evaluation and the encouragement it deserves! Keep up the good work, author!
I never expected them to fire a gun in public. They'd rather take action than argue; it was satisfying. Now the plot is even more unpredictable. Looking forward to what happens next! Keep it up!
"I Was a Literary Giant in the Republic of China and Was Confessed to by Lu Xiaoman" is like a vivid scroll painting of the Republic of China era, depicting the myriad aspects of the time from the perspective of a literary giant who travels through time.
So far it's not bad, but one chapter a day is a bit too little.
