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.
Urban Fiction, Chinese Showbiz, Hong Kong Crime
Mainly urban novels, but I'll also include good books from other genres, both completed and ongoing. There's sure to be something here that interests you.

Novels with Liu Yifei as the Female Lead: Only the Best Chinese Entertainment Fiction, Xixi the Celestial Fairy Liu
Liu Tianxian's life has had three stages ● 2002–2008: Rise to fame Innocent, lively, and adorable. Just look at the goofy jumping around in those behind-the-scenes clips from The Return of the Condor Heroes. ● 2009–2020: The low point She was [redacted], [redacted], and [redacted] by a certain company. In particular, she nearly quit the industry in 2009 and 2010. She got through it by reading lots of inspirational books. In 2011, she got close to the declining Hong Kong entertainment scene. In 2
Two Books by Each Author
Books I paid to read and books I finished for free
Liu Yifei / Yang Mi / Zhao Liying / Liu Shishi / Tang Yan
Worth rereading: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pretty good: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Good for getting out of a reading slump: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Other ratings: There may be some dealbreakers, but parts of the character writing are good! Recommended authors who write multiple heroines: Da Jinmao (He likes explaining things, but has written several novels featuring famous actresses born in the 1980s. The most reliable pick.) Pang Yidian (He's written three multiple-heroine novels, but only one features a famous actress born in the 1980s.

🤔The subject matter is completely wrong. It should be that Gao Yanei travels to the modern era, and Wang Duoyu is bribing Gao Yanei to fix a football match. Gao Yanei, in modern times, intended to save the Chinese national football team but found himself powerless. So he traveled back to the Song Dynasty, intending to cultivate football from there.
The author has arranged a match between a star-studded football team and the national team... After all, if heaven hadn't created golf, Chinese football would have been shrouded in eternal darkness! Let these bumpkins of the future witness the might of the Song Dynasty's football king!
Ever since Ding Xiu, nicknamed "Brother Jiaqian," traveled back in time to become an actor, Murong Fu and even Gao Yanei have traveled back in time. It's too much!
Following Ding Xiu and Murong Fu (currently both books total 250,000 words), another character, Gao Yanei, has arrived. Without hesitation, I'll add him to my favorites first. I'll chat with you after I finish reading. Are the three of you in the same group?
Oh ho, Gao Yanei is no match for Ding Xiulang. What use is a movie star? Of course, he has to rely on being a kept man to climb the social ladder.
Your character has collapsed! How did you portray Gao Yanei, that scumbag,? A principled playboy? Or a cowardly man who dares to talk and fight but doesn't dare to actually do it?
After the eunuch Murong Fu, Ding Xiu, and Gao Yanei, who else will come?
I saw the title and had no desire to even click on it. Please don't glorify historical villains; they are nailed to the pillar of shame and should be despised.
After going from being a eunuch to entering the entertainment industry, the entertainment channel has become quite interesting. 😁
Is there no record of how many people the main character has slept with?
