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.
Books I’ve Read and Really Thought About
In the north lives a beauty, peerless and alone. One glance can topple a city; a second can bring down a kingdom. Is it any wonder that a beauty like her can topple cities and kingdoms? Such a woman is impossible to find again.

Take a look at the books on my little bookshelf, and please give it a favorite.

Is it so hard to look at the historical context before criticizing?
The author later patched up the story of "Diaosi Men," only selling the first broadcast rights and priority production rights. They've sold all the copyrights? Are you kidding me? Furthermore, the premise for "Men's Diary" to make money is that it is a self-produced drama by Sohu! Did Da Peng make money? He's still earning a fixed salary after filming "Jianbing Man".
This doesn't align with reality. Aren't people supposed to be surrounded by good people after they become famous? Why are the main characters surrounded by enemies? And he's as popular as Xiao Shenyang, unprecedented and unparalleled! Damn, no one has broken his record to this day. Do you know how many TV dramas he starred in back then?
I'm definitely tired of watching "The Poet Immortal of Tang Dynasty," but what's with this female lead? I could barely tolerate Song Jia, but Guan Tingna... I think you're really hungry.
Just write about making movies, acting in dramas, and picking up girls. Why do you have to write about making enemies everywhere? Do you think you have a powerful background? If you're not a big shot, offending people everywhere is just asking for trouble. Some of these kinds of things won't even pass censorship. Just write about making movies and picking up girls normally, that'll be fine.
This aesthetic is amazing!
Aside from Da Lei, his looks are so bad that he wouldn't even be considered good-looking in the entertainment industry. You look almost exactly like Zhang Yimou, what's wrong with you?
Judging from your description, if you're really Zhao Benshan's apprentice, and you're this outrageous, Zhao Benshan would slap you to death.
Many celebrities in the entertainment industry like to change their age to be younger. Those marked with ❓ are suspected of falsifying their age. 1975~1979 Chen Zihan (1975), Li Xiaoran (1976 or 1972?), Zuo Xiaoqing (1977), Dong Xuan (1979), Qin Lan (1979), Chen Qiaoen (1979) 1980~1984
The internet is a wonderful thing; you can find things from the past.
In this age of advanced internet, we can find all the dirt on people from Hong Kong and Taiwan from back then. Take Chow Yun-fat, for example. He was caught having an affair with a rich woman, forced to eat excrement, and even had his stomach pumped in the hospital! Nobody knew about this before, but now we can find out about these things!
Even eunuchs have something to say!
What I hate most is people who create a new account and then abandon it at the drop of a hat. The environment on Qidian is getting worse and worse. Either the main account is constantly posting irrelevant content, or the new account just disconnects. We're paying real money to read the official content, and with such a terrible experience, it's hard to support this platform anymore.
Song Jia isn't considered a beauty in the entertainment industry, her acting range is limited, and her voice isn't pleasant, especially the strained, high-pitched sound when she speaks softly—it's truly awful! Casting such a female lead in a novel would be entirely detrimental unless there's a special connection between them.
