Hong Kong Entertainment: I Start by Scoring Miss Kwan for Free 港娱：从白嫖关小姐开始
A story about a shameless schemer taking over Hong Kong’s entertainment industry in 1980... This isn’t a traditional Hong Kong showbiz story. There are no dinging System alerts and no gang wars or blood feuds. The book contains a little everyday Cantonese, but it doesn’t affect the main plot. The pacing is slow and grounded in reality, so proceed with caution if that’s not your thing. The protagonist is ruthlessly self-interested and decisive. If you’re a bleeding heart, this isn’t for you!
