I Really Don’t Want High Ratings for My Documentary!

Maybe I'm just being picky, but I simply couldn't stand it anymore. I won't comment on the writing style or the clichéd story, but I just couldn't stand the awkward word choice. Author, didn't you even read what you wrote? I'm listening to an audiobook, but this is incredibly painful to listen to.

Instead of focusing on the shocking and embarrassing moments involving supporting characters, concentrate on the documentary's concept, music, and behind-the-scenes stories. Your readers are interested in documentaries, not pretentious, lowbrow fiction.

Judging from the title, it seems like she wants to be a prostitute while also trying to maintain a virtuous image. 🤭

Since your character is a successful, middle-aged person, try to fit that description. The martial arts world isn't just about fighting and killing; it's about human relationships and social dynamics. Don't let so-called romance take up too much space. Most authors struggle with writing romance, and beginners should avoid including too much; it's easy to make mistakes.

I understand why many readers dislike pretentious and face-slapping stories. To put it simply, when I first started writing "A Bite of China," I didn't have many readers, so I added these kinds of plots to attract them. By the time I had readers, I realized I had already written a lot of these kinds of stories, at least in the "A Bite of China" section.

The latest two chapters are utterly ridiculous! Why are you feeding readers mouthfuls of shit? It's like that game author. Who cares about workplace drama in documentaries? People want to see the production process, the content, and audience feedback. "A Bite of China" feels so pure, a story of spiritual redemption. What is this novel about?

The protagonist is given a past life as a big shot, but in his present life he's like a complete newbie, someone who hasn't even left university yet. The synopsis claims it's a documentary, but it turns out to be a rather old-fashioned, traditional film and television drama with a shocking supporting character. You could easily turn any film or television series into the documentary itself.

Since the protagonist was already incredibly successful in his past life, he's bound to be very confident in this one. First, he's confident; second, he's experienced. And documentaries aren't something you can just make on a whim. Documentaries are popular because they record the most authentic scenes, but not from an ordinary person's perspective.

Chapter 3 almost made me laugh to death. A documentary filmmaker who's so awesome he can rival film directors has to rely on a high school student's college entrance exam essay to pass the test and keep his job. He blows out all the hype in a college entrance exam essay, trying too hard to show off. Doesn't the author feel embarrassed when he reads what he wrote?

The writing style is too similar and homogenous. I knew the ending from the beginning, so what's the point? He just broke up and immediately got paired with a beautiful landlady; he got a TV drama job and immediately got paired with a beautiful on-screen couple. Dude, haven't you ever seen a woman before?
