This Director Takes the Road Less Traveled

I'm very curious, what were you authors thinking? After being reborn, I never look for first-hand items; I only focus on second-hand or even twentieth-hand items. Can I ask why? Is it something you hate? Or something you wouldn't even dare to imagine in a novel?

I don't even want to read the second chapter. A random returnee from overseas, with no experience or success history, and Yindu agreed to invest just because of a simple recommendation? What's the point of a script? The same script, directed by a hundred different directors, can produce a thousand different films. Let alone just the script, even if the movie is finalized, most industry insiders can't say for sure whether it will be a box office success.

Chinese entertainment bloggers can just write about female celebrities; there's no need to write about their mothers to gain clicks. It's disgusting and a really bad thing.

A Cannes film has nearly 20 chapters? That's ridiculously weak.

Why wouldn't Yang Yuying, who has such a long shelf life, snatch the opportunity so early?

When did Farewell My Concubine become a film directed by Zhang Yimou? They didn't even check the timeline before making this up.

As expected, I got some action right in the first three chapters; much better than those wishful thinking, ambiguous endings.

Since the main character was designated to sing, and the timeline was perfectly timed to intercept the role, and since Yang Yuying was later heartbroken by a scumbag and remained single for the rest of her life anyway, why couldn't the main character be the one to be the scumbag who treated her so badly?

The choice of the female lead is quite fitting; it would be even better with Lin Chi-ling and Michelle Reis added.
