Best Picks in Showbiz and Period Fiction (Updated 2026-10-28)
A list of entertainment novels I'm following. If you like this genre, give them a try. I often check the rankings. This genre is relatively easy for new authors to write, but competition is fierce too. I update regularly, so keep an eye on changes to the list's title.

This book, well, the very first chapter completely baffled me. Reborn to make movies, my first film is Roman Holiday?! Roman Holiday? What kind of movie is that? It's just an idol film from the last century, all about good looks, no plot whatsoever, and it even had to struggle to adapt to different cultures. Isn't that ridiculous? Wow, the author's film knowledge seems to be quite extensive.
Other people's long-time readers: Supporting the author... Our old book lover: Stop writing farming novels... Tears well up in my eyes... The world is so unfair!
Sure, the premise is interesting: Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong plus unlucky teammates. The movie selection is also good; foreign films are more refreshing than domestic ones. A small suggestion: the author could choose more films that are historically significant. Readers would be able to recall famous scenes just by seeing the movie titles, greatly enhancing the reading experience.
There are basically no good people in the entertainment industry. Have you seen the news lately? Another one has gotten into trouble. There are already so many people in trouble, not to mention how many haven't. And judging by the proportions, this industry is definitely rotten to the core.
Do you think you can just write a female-centric novel, put it on a male-oriented platform, and expect us to buy it? The free chapters were still being collected, but once it became a VIP chapter, they started to let loose, right?
Two questions First, the female lead goes to film someone else's movie, and there are scenes of them hugging, kissing, and being affectionate. Is that really okay? The author should ask himself, would he really be able to stand seeing his girlfriend like that?
This book could also be placed in the female-oriented category. I've read up to chapter 25, and it's mostly about how the female lead is good-looking, has good acting skills, and is very charming. No one pays attention to the protagonist's directing ability, screenwriting ability, or the arrangement of the three songs.
The entertainment industry is the least turbulent industry in the country.
My first choice of TV series, *Roman Holiday*, was a path I hadn't anticipated. It's not that foreign dramas are bad, but *Roman Holiday* mainly relied on Audrey Hepburn's face to carry it. It had no plot, no originality—even a dog would shake its head at it.
Eunuchs are great, they can write agricultural novels.
