Chinese Showbiz: I Started Directing in 2003

I hope the female lead isn't Liu Yifei or Yang Mi; I'm really sick of seeing them!

The author's sales are so low; a story with just one female lead like Sissi would have already garnered 10,000 subscribers.

I think the author wrote this novel purely for self-indulgence. First, the part about competing for awards abroad was completely nonsensical. Then, the same goes for *Nirvana in Fire*. Why didn't they change the plot to a dual male lead storyline with two top male actors from the company, instead of using Huang Xiaoming and Hu Ge? Nobody promotes someone else's company like that!

If it's about rebirth, then why write it as if you're dreaming? And then there's the ridiculous part about going to the doctor, which turns the biggest highlight into a toxic one. I guess it's not for me, so I'm leaving.

It's been discovered that the main character has always been begging for roles when it comes to casting for TV dramas.

The first dozen or so chapters were off-putting, and the director, without doing any research, still insisted on his point. Besides, since when has a good director been defined by their ability to write screenplays? What's the point of having screenwriters then?

Why do most Chinese entertainment novels always feature the same few second- or third-tier female celebrities? There are hundreds of second- and third-tier female celebrities, with many choices for each age group. There are plenty of beautiful and well-built actresses, unlike first-tier female celebrities who only have a limited number of options.

This is the first book I've ever read that made me want to give up after just one chapter. I wouldn't say it's immune to all poisons, but its poison resistance is definitely maxed out. You've really got something else to offer.

Writing about Liu Yifei is fine, as long as it's not a single female lead role and doesn't idolize the female lead, it's acceptable.

This author just writes about a few female leads in the early stages and then starts fawning over Jing Tian and Fan Bingbing. The female leads don't act in any scenes or have any romantic subplots for several years. Is this supposed to be a Baidu novel?
