A Sea of Books: Picks for When You’re Out of Reading Material
Chinese Entertainment Novels
Writing about Chinese entertainment isn't easy. Recommendations welcome.
Entertainment Base (Completed, with Lots of Chapters)
New list, please save it! Most of my recommendations have lots of women in them, so don't come in if that's not your thing! If you share my taste, save the list for now. I'll gradually recommend good books I've read. I'm a longtime reader but still a beginner in some ways, and I'm picky. If a book isn't readable, I won't recommend it! I especially like satisfying urban fiction, with entertainment-industry stories at the top of my list, particularly Chinese and Hong Kong entertainment. But someti

What era is it? I still believe that if you have acting skills, you can act. It's not even possible to win the Best Actor Award upon debut. You still need to upgrade. Pure nonsense
Many people say they don't like reading Chinese entertainment dramas with multiple female leads, or why Liu Yifei is always the female lead. But you have to admit, these dramas are just so enjoyable. You also have to admit that in three out of five Chinese entertainment dramas with multiple female leads, Liu Yifei is one of the female leads.
"Best Actor? Are you kidding me? The investors are the bosses. They tell you how to act, so you act the way they tell you. Even if you think you're a genius and your acting is superb, it's useless. The entertainment industry has never lacked Best Actor winners; there are tons of good actors, why should it always be your turn?"
Another bit player. As soon as a film or television project is approved, all the named supporting roles have already been snapped up by the investors. Trying to rely on acting skills… that's ridiculous! Remember, being a Best Actor in the entertainment industry is never a guarantee of success. Hong Kong's Four Heavenly Kings, Tony Leung and Chow Yun-fat, didn't become famous because they were Best Actor winners; they became Best Actor winners because they were famous.
I read more than ten chapters
The protagonist is a hypocrite, refusing to date women, and then tries to climb the social ladder through his own abilities—it's ridiculous.
Sigh, the later parts are practically indistinguishable from erotic fiction. The only difference might be that erotic fiction has a lot of plot descriptions, while yours just stopped there.
What era are we living in? Anyone who knows even a little about the entertainment industry or reads any related information knows that if you're going to be an extra, just stay an extra. It's only because short videos are so popular now that extras can at best become internet celebrities. Forget about acting skills; in the face of connections, capital, and resources, acting skills are utterly worthless. Your book is at least ten years out of date.
I'm speechless. The words "chuckle" and "bitter smile" have appeared dozens of times in this chapter!
I hope the author will include Gulnazar, Dilraba, Hanikezi, Zhang Yuqi, Zhang Xinyu, Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Zeng Li, Hu Jing, Yang Shutong, Angelababy, Janice Man, Jing Tian, Zhang Zifeng, Song Zuer, Guan Xiaotong, Annie Liu, Dong Xuan, and Gan Tingting!
Ugh, I can't stand seeing people stuntmen fighting for their jobs. How do you know that stuntman's claim of feeling unwell isn't just a ploy to get more money from the director? Why are you acting so arrogantly? Aren't you afraid of dying?
