Is it true that Hu Ge will be the male lead in a movie? Or is it just science fiction?
Suddenly I remembered that the protagonist's headquarters are in Shanghai, yet the entire story doesn't even mention the local bigwig, Shangying. 😁
You've gone to great lengths to get the author to subscribe... Using Wen as a supporting character for Xiao Liu, is she your person or a leading lady with box office potential? Don't say Xiao Liu has higher national recognition; go ask how many fans would support her movie? Even not having Wen in the film is better than her being demoted.
Make complaints
There's too much filler in the plot, some parts are overly sycophantic, and there's the classic "relatives poisoning the peace" trope—this kind of disgusting plot is still popular.
Is Li Yitong in it? At this time, Yitong was 18 years old and had just started studying at the Beijing Dance Academy!
It seems the author didn't do any research and hasn't played the stock market much; the financial information in the article is riddled with errors!
Why is it written so messily?
Is Li Guoguang the director of "My Date with a Vampire"? Is Chen Jiashang the director of "A Terracotta Warrior's Tale"? Why did Dilraba Dilmurat, feeling unwell, go to the lead actor instead of her assistant? Why did Yang Mi travel abroad without an assistant or agent? Which company is Limei Pictures? Which company is Altair Pictures? Why did she actively try to curry favor with Eric Tsang?
I support the protagonist's desire to develop a video website. However, they're only buying 5-7 year copyrights. It's only 2008 now, and you've said that web dramas only started to develop on a large scale after 2012. Your video website is just starting out, and in a year or two, the copyrights will expire. What will you do then? Renew at a high price again?
The author's aesthetic sense is fickle.
What kind of Miss Hong Kong is this? I searched it up and it's probably going to collapse. And then there's Gulnazar, she's all hype, just like Fan Bingbing. Even Fan Bingbing's stills from the Wu Zetian drama are better looking. Naza doesn't even have a decent still from the drama. Media studies department, all talk and no action
I've read some of it, and the script seems alright, but why is it all about praising Liu Yifei again? Why didn't they give the female lead role to their girlfriend Janice Man, but instead to Liu Yifei, who isn't even one of their artists? And then they made Janice Man a supporting actress?
