Warning: This is an ultra-satisfying power fantasy. The male lead is little more than a background character, while the heroine is the strongest. She will ultimately dominate the entertainment industry, bringing songs and films from the future with her.

In the 1980s, Hong Kong was the undisputed center of the Asian entertainment industry.
Its films swept Southeast Asia and dominated the Chinese-speaking world and the Japanese and Korean markets, earning Hong Kong the title of Hollywood of the East.
Xu Jinglan debuted as an idol in her previous life and rose to become a top-tier star and award-winning actress. Reborn into the body of a Hong Kong triad boss's daughter in the 1980s, of course she's going to help her old man go straight. And why not start by developing idols?
While others sing Cantonese love songs, she makes sweet, energetic girls the new sensation.
While others make wuxia films, cop movies, and family dramas,
she makes youth romances and idol dramas.
TVB creates a generation of veteran stars; she builds Asia's idol industry.
Hong Kong only exports its signature style? She will make Chinese pop culture truly take the world by storm.
From a single rehearsal room at ATV to an entertainment empire sweeping across Asia.
From a triad boss's daughter to a media tycoon who commands the trends of her era.
This time, she will put Eastern aesthetics at the top of the world.
Theme: Take Chinese pop culture to the world
