    📚📚Both books feature excellent writing, vivid character portrayals, and intelligent characters. The protagonist in the first book is well-developed. Internally, he doesn't squander his wealth on extravagance or showing off; instead, he uses it for charity and to guide his fans in learning and self-improvement—a truly positive message. Externally, he aims to enhance the nation's cultural influence. The plot is original and offers plenty of satisfying moments. The second book is a substantial read, the first entertainment novel I read on Tomato. The writing is excellent. While the first few chapters might not immediately grab your attention, after about ten chapters, the plot becomes incredibly engaging, with no repetition throughout.

    "The All-Round Top Star Starts with Free Food and Lodging" uses a talent show as its stage to tell the legendary story of a "lazy genius" who becomes an overnight sensation. The protagonist, Chu Yu, a young man who has just returned from abroad, is lured into the struggling variety show "Dream Begins" by the promise of free food and lodging. However, with his photographic memory and overwhelming talent, he can perfectly replicate a dance after watching it only once, even effortlessly securing the center position for the theme song! He is low-key and easygoing, yet always unleashes his charisma at crucial moments, captivating the audience with his stage presence and turning a show on the verge of cancellation into a smash hit. The book not only depicts Chu Yu's unexpected rise to fame but also humorously exposes the cutthroat competition in the entertainment industry—ticket-buying scandals, resource-backed celebrities' provocations, and undercurrents among mentors—making it both realistic and engaging.
