The idea is good and quite reasonable. Knowing which TV shows and movies would become hits by going back in time is already a huge advantage. Being affiliated with Huayi Brothers makes it more believable; the platform is crucial, otherwise, you could be overwhelmed by mudslinging. Good acting is just a bonus; most viewers are just watching for entertainment, not acting teachers.
Well, let's just say that the protagonist likes to preach grand principles, such as advising Baoqiang to improve his acting skills, explaining the pros and cons to prevent him from taking the college entrance exam and affecting his future ability to curry favor with powerful figures, and dissecting and analyzing the protagonist's daily behavior in great detail for the readers.
The biggest problem is that there aren't enough exciting moments; some parts are quite frustrating. The protagonist is portrayed as having no ambition and just casually drifting through the entertainment industry, but he has made at least several billion or even tens of billions through real estate speculation.
I quit the fandom after she started dating Li Xue. 😅
I've read about 150 chapters. The pace gets faster and faster towards the end, with scenes constantly being added. The pacing is too fast, it's starting to resemble the typical "Big Golden Retriever" trope. It shouldn't be called "The Unambitious Movie Emperor," it should be "The Ambitious Movie Emperor." Also, what kind of girl is the female lead?
The chapter title didn't even inspire me to click on it.
Seeing the audition scene for "Sky at Eighteen," the flaws were absolutely horrible. They even changed the script! It's outrageous that a nobody extra would participate in revising the script. I can't understand it with my brain.
No ambition? I think you're too ambitious. You changed the script without even knowing your own limitations, and you're already getting cocky before you've even become famous.
Author, stop poisoning the waters! With the protagonist's level of prestige, why is he playing a supporting role? He always hated working with Hong Kong actors, and now he's going to play a supporting role for them. What will the Hong Kong media say? It's really degrading.
What's the point of entering the entertainment industry if you have no ambition? It's impossible to enter the entertainment industry without ambition or so-called "ambition," right? This persona doesn't fit.
