Poor writing skills, pretentious and self-indulgent ideas.
The author's writing is chaotic, clearly written to satisfy their own ego. They completely disregard the reader's experience. The entire piece is purely for their own enjoyment, with no real sense of gratification. They haven't even bothered to write anything substantial; their thoughts and writing are completely different things. The whole thing reeks of a middle-aged, pretentious intellectual.
This is the story of the 'Holy Grail War'.
To put it simply, you can think of the male protagonist as the Holy Grail, and the several female protagonists with their own systems as Masters participating in the competition with their own desires. This is a story revolving around the struggle for the Holy Grail, commonly known as the Holy Grail War.
Interesting
I understand now. You can think of the male lead in this novel as a female protagonist in a female-oriented novel. It's about a reborn female protagonist who wants to live a carefree, laid-back life, but unexpectedly, she develops special connections with a domineering CEO (3rd sister), a big star (the beautiful but confused ex-wife), an artsy young man (Da Meiyuan), a mature and charming older…
After reading dozens of chapters, the protagonist is too useless, it's very frustrating. Is this really the legendary "Wei Wu" writing style? The family background setting is poorly done. On the one hand, the family oppresses the protagonist, and on the other hand, in order to have autonomy, the protagonist can only make the early timeline pass quickly, so the meaning and gains of the rebirth in…
The writing is actually alright, but there's absolutely no sense of immersion. It's ridiculous that such an old-fashioned, highly toxic story can be considered creative now. It's all just bickering between various women, which only makes the protagonist seem like a complete waste. There's no sense of satisfaction at all, so of course there's no way it's going to be a paid story!
Skills Review (Chapters 1-56)
Fan Xiaoye: The initial skill is "When the time comes". When faced with a crisis: the more important the matter, the more composed one should remain. (Chapter 7) When faced with a crisis, one must remain calm, especially when dealing with important matters; this is twice as effective when one is by Xu Jiuyang's side. (Chapter 50) Xiao Meiyuan: The initial skill is "A Flash of Inspiration".
I can't believe this book was written by a veteran entertainment writer. It's so frustrating; it's completely disjointed and haphazard...
After reading three chapters, one word sums it up: "chaotic." A whole bunch of characters have transmigrated, making the protagonist seem almost irrelevant. It's clearly a story focused on supporting characters who live off others, but if they all already know the future, why add a protagonist at all?
Adding a bunch of hidden information is practically driving readers away. What's the point of an entertainment novel with so many mysteries? I honestly don't understand. I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about the entertainment industry, and even so, it's still very difficult to read. It jumps around in a disjointed way, constantly breaking up the plot to create more mystery.
