Writing Novels in Xiangjiang [Period]

Yan Shaowei transmigrates to Xiangjiang in the 1940s.

She has no money to her name and is living on the streets, with two tagalongs in tow.

In her previous life, Yan Shaowei was a top-tier web novelist. She wasn't good at anything else, but she knew how to tell stories.

Clacking a bowl for attention, she becomes a street storyteller and earns enough to eat by telling tales.

Later, she returns to her old line of work, writing novels, scripting plays, and making films.

Before long, the people of Xiangjiang discover a newspaper writer whose stories are always a delight to read.

At the same time, they hear that a certain opera troupe has a genius playwright.

That year, with her formidable writing skills, Yan Shaowei creates an optimistic, resilient street child in her new book, The Story of Gouwa, bringing Xiangjiang readers to tears.

Her book is adapted into a radio drama, performed by street storytellers, and even turned into a full-length opera...

That year, Yan Shaowei's opera The Substitute Bride turns a troupe that couldn't sell tickets and was on the verge of disbanding into a sensation across Xiangjiang.

A theater critic is utterly impressed: "It's as if she took a pair of scissors and precisely cut away the dross from traditional opera. What an eye she has! And what boldness!"

That year, the film Yan Shaowei writes and directs herself breaks out of Xiangjiang, then Asia, and goes global.

After watching it, a famous European director can hardly wait to take her as a master: "The methods we're still trying to figure out, the techniques we're still exploring, she has already mastered to perfection!"

P.S.:

1. The focus is on her career.

2. I don't write about historical figures or real events. This is all fictional, entirely fictional.

3. The protagonist's name comes from the line, "A three-foot sword in its case, the Shaowei star in the heavens."

Wen Danming transmigrates to Hong Kong in the 1970s.

Her whole family is crammed into an old tenement building in Jordan, scraping by on the newspaper they publish.

But the paper's sales are getting worse and worse, and it looks as if it will soon go under.

Wen Danming immediately spots the problem. Hong Kong has a thriving entertainment industry, and other newspapers are bursting with celebrity gossip, while her family's paper insists on taking a serious approach.

Unfortunately, her father stubbornly clings to a scholar's integrity, preferring to starve rather than become a paparazzo.

So her family won't go hungry, Wen "the Topic Maker" Danming, who wrote countless viral articles with over 100,000 views in her previous life, picks up her pen again.

She writes high-engagement articles with one hand and serialized novels with the other.

Before long, her family's paper, once so unpopular that no one would even take it for free, becomes a hot seller that Hong Kong readers scramble to buy.

And for her, this is only the beginning.

P.S.:

1. Before transmigrating, Danming was a self-media content creator and web novelist.

2. This is not a story about copying works from her previous life.

3. A fictional story about transmigrating into a book.
