The Maoshan Heavenly Master of Showbiz

Friends are always asking me, “Lin Jiu, are the supernatural rumors in the entertainment industry real or fake?”

I usually say, “Fake.”

My friends breathe a sigh of relief. “I knew it. It’s all publicity stunts.”

Then I add, “Ninety percent of it is real. Only ten percent is fake, and that’s the stuff we’ve buried before it could get out.”

My friends look like they’ve just swallowed a fly.

I’m not joking.

Those trending stories you’ve seen, like “A woman’s sobs heard on set in the middle of the night,” “A star’s mirror cracks for no reason,” and “A strange shadow appears over a top-tier star’s concert”...

Ninety percent of them are real. It’s just that nobody dares to dig deeper. If they did, they’d uncover things no one could handle.

I spent three years working as a “production assistant” in Hengdian. In reality, I handled more than forty supernatural incidents in the entertainment industry.

There was a star who’d been cursed, a film crew trapped by a feng shui formation, a whole filming location built on a mass grave, and one award-winning actor.

There was nothing wrong with him, exactly. The problem was that every night when he went to sleep, someone else was lying under his bed.

No, not someone. Not a person.

My name is Lin Jiu, and I’m the seventy-ninth-generation successor of the Maoshan Sect.

This book records my true experiences, from breaking into the industry to becoming the entertainment world’s top feng shui consultant.

Don’t get the wrong idea. I’m not here to teach you how to draw talismans or chant incantations. I just want to tell you the truth:

The entertainment industry is murkier than you could ever imagine.

And there really is something lurking beneath those waters.
