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.

Do you have any recommendations for harem novels? The more ruthless the better, the kind that's merciless after sex, and who'll just leave after using someone. The kind that's like exchanging sex for a movie role or resources—something that's realistic and relatable—is also fine. No pure romance or multiple-dominant stories, please!
It opened high and then fell.
The protagonist's starting point was too high, sweeping three major battles in a year. This is comparable to others who have accumulated over a decade. Although there's a cheat code, the room for growth is reduced. To put it bluntly, the climax comes too early, and the anticipation for later development disappears.
Yu Feihong already has a son by now, and you still want to...
I can't seem to get into harem novels anymore!
You can write down the business plan.
The lead actor has already reached the pinnacle of directing; is that commercial or artistic? I feel there's no need to pursue the Grand Slam. It's almost been 10 years, and the domestic commercial landscape is about to unfold. Otherwise, if you just remain a director, when internet capital enters the market, you'll only be a spectator.
If you're writing about making commercial films later, please don't choose "Lost in Thailand," "Nightclub," or "Crazy Stone"—these are movies that have been over-written! I never thought they were that good before! They're just hyping them up in novels all the time! I read a novel that directly plagiarized "Man Jiang Hong" to compete with Zhang Yimou's "Curse of the Golden Flower" 😄.
It seems he's developed a penchant for artsy novels after achieving some success, wanting readers to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of "Painted Skin," and then self-deceivingly changing the name. There's nothing wrong with adapting and remaking "Painted Skin," after all, Hong Kong directors often have a mixed Chinese and Western mindset, unable to grasp the essence and looking down on…
Directors who started in art-house films, even when they move on to commercial films, tend to choose movies with a certain sophistication. Look at Zhang Yimou's commercial films; even the worst ones still retain their highbrow appeal.
It's alright.
Although it's a well-worn entertainment novel set after 2000, the first five chapters were surprisingly good. The language was fluent, the logic was clear, and it made me want to keep reading.
