Packed with substance. Personally, I prefer a colder, more ruthless style.

The main character is very well-developed. Since he chose to enter the entertainment industry, and become the most popular director among female stars, he should be able to have relationships when it's appropriate, and enjoy himself when it's time to have fun. As long as he doesn't cross the line, nobody will bother him. Seeing some main characters pretending to be innocent young men makes me sick. What are they pretending for? Do they really think they're saints in the entertainment industry?
I don't understand how much the author likes Huang Shengyi. When I saw the comment that she stole Liu Yifei's role in *The Return of the Condor Heroes*, I stopped reading. It seems unnecessary to steal Liu Yifei's roles, especially not Huang Shengyi. It's disgusting. Liu Yifei has only acted in a few dramas, and that doesn't matter. Huang Shengyi is disgusting.
I read a bit of this novel before, but stopped reading after seeing the author's problematic choice of subject matter. I've noticed many authors like to recreate youth campus movies like "Those Years" from twenty years ago. However, these kinds of movies were practically unwatchable twenty years ago.
Chen Hao, the female lead, is not as good as Dong Xuan; I really can't match her looks.

Traditional entertainment novels, realistic masterpieces
This is a traditional entertainment novel with excellent professional scene and plot design. The protagonist's personality is particularly commendable; he's very well-developed, possessing both the traditional Chinese manly side and a womanizing, philandering side, making him feel incredibly real—like a living, breathing person.
I admire those scoundrels who let their women work in the entertainment industry... And they're actually quite happy about it 😁
A rare and exquisite Chinese entertainment novel. The female lead, Chen Hao, is also one of my favorite actresses. Let me offer a small personal hope. Never fall in love with every woman you sleep with, and don't start a harem after just one night. One-night stands, casual sex partners, and even couples on set are all acceptable.
Without any Celestial Dragon blood, it's written like one. The protagonist is surrounded by good people, and he even sponsors a school's youth director behind-the-scenes talent program—it's laughable. Even if you have money, you won't get a chance to shine. Whether you give it or not, once they take your money, they're your people. What organization would allow such a powerful person to exist?
Aside from Gao Yuanyuan being annoying, the rest is fine.
