Reborn as the Godfather of Internet Fame

Brief book review: To be honest, I didn't want to click on the book when I first saw the title, because I think "internet celebrity" is a derogatory term. But I saw a comment and came in to take a look, and I almost missed this great book. First, there's no forced pretentiousness typical of urban fiction; the characters are intelligent and their IQs are on point.

Traffic Secrets: 1. The female lead should never be an original character; the greater her fame in her past life, the better. 2. Collect more internet celebrities; avoid artsy types and overthinking; romance isn't important! 3. Be pretentious, but not mindlessly so. 4. Don't let her career develop too quickly, and don't meddle in everything; don't give away shares without thinking.

During military training at a non-985/211 university, students were required to cut their hair, and then the instructors deliberately subjected students to psychological manipulation (PUA) to pick up female students—a practice that was openly acknowledged among the instructors. Have any of you experienced military training like this? I haven't, and it seems surreal. However, I'm unsure if I'm just too naive and trapped in an information cocoon, so I'm asking for your opinions.

Did I attend a fake university? Since when can you smoke freely in the classroom? Since when can students make decisions about awards, honors, and scholarships? Or is our school not very "autonomous" anymore? Am I just ignorant? It can't be that bad, I know a lot about these things. Are there really such big differences between different universities?

This kind of author probably doesn't make any money. Stubborn as a mule, insisting on writing an unlikable female lead, just for their own amusement. Do they think they're Jin Yong? I was going to subscribe, but I won't now. Keep indulging in your self-absorption.

I was initially quite optimistic about the story, but after that girl surnamed Yang appeared, I started to feel something was off. To put it simply, she was completely irrelevant to the plot and drastically lowered my expectations. I admit that girls like her exist in county-level cities or small towns, and quite a few at that (I'm not saying anything about county-level cities or small towns…

This high school girlfriend's writing is like 💩, it's such a waste of my subscription time.

Suddenly, I find the protagonist quite interesting. He makes videos about passing on traditions, but he can't be the one doing the passing on. He makes patriotic videos, but then he attributes the opinions of so-called experts to the government, as if the government has wronged him. So, in reality, the protagonist is just a sophisticated egoist, right? He's never truly committed to passing on traditions or having any patriotic thoughts; he's only in it for the money.

The romance scenes were so poorly written that it would have been better not to include the female lead at all. She's so obviously in love with her first love? The lack of romance felt abrupt and uncomfortable, so I skipped all the romance scenes.

Either don't write about entertainment or internet celebrities, or if you're writing about this type of thing and still thinking about single women... That's just too toxic.
