Thirty Years of Blustering in Chinese Entertainment

This book is actually quite good in many ways, but the reason it didn't make it into the "best of" category is that while the protagonist seems to always win, he never breaks out of his comfort zone. His enemies are always the same recurring figures: Sun Donghai, the two Wangs, the Xiang family, and a few other wealthy individuals.

Black Car and Big Golden Retriever seem to be long-time employees of Huayu Media, having stuck with the company for a long time, but they haven't reaped much benefit during Huayu's boom years in recent years. The former's writing style is delicate and refined, while the latter's is unrestrained and bold, though they have influenced each other.

The black market is so pitiful! The best-performing novels these days are mostly light novels with a few female leads, but they're famous, using celebrity skins but having a youthful, inspirational core. The truly successful ones have at most three or four female leads, disguised as romance novels set in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Her son was born in 1993, so she became a father unexpectedly? I've noticed that many novels include her, but no one has written about her son. 🤔 Pretending not to see?

The author notes that the Li family has had no connection with Tencent since 2001, so stop eyeing stocks that don't exist. Also, the name "dilidili" is completely nonsensical; Bilibili's name wasn't chosen randomly, so please don't try to imitate it poorly.

Big US dollars

Who's reading this idiotic book? It's like an idiot's mother opening the door for another idiot; idiocy has reached its peak.

The three brothers—the eldest was a vice-ministerial level official when Huayi Brothers went public, a red vice-ministerial level official in his forties. What does that mean? He was the true successor. Taking on a side job is suicide.

Are the Wang brothers some kind of magic potion? They're stuffed with everything, and every plot's final conflict falls on them—exams, travel, hotel stays, music, movies, TV dramas, Hong Kong, Taiwan, the world, domestic awards, international awards—everything depends on them. Does the plot really stall without them? Is it really just about eating, sleeping, and playing games all day long?

Li Xiaoran, what the heck, what kind of aesthetic is that?
