I'm so disappointed.
This is the first time I've seen a novel with two male leads. Wherever the protagonist goes, whatever he does, he's always accompanied by the male supporting character. Whether it's filming, going to a bar, or just meeting someone, he's always there like a shadow. This male supporting character appears more often than the female lead! Who wants to read about a minor supporting character?
The book title should be "Eating Abalone in Hong Kong"
We need to make some business investments, not just focus on movies.
Whether the author even knows the protagonist's name is what made me give up. It's so awkward.
That's so poisonous! I've already died from the poison. I gave up after only reading three chapters. Goodbye.
Author, please think it through before you write.
Teresa Teng's version was bad enough, and you managed to salvage it. If Lin Fengjiao does it again, just wait for it to end badly.
If you write about Hong Kong entertainment in a too bland way, no one will read it anymore.
Well... There's not much to see.
If it's only pleasant but not intensely pleasurable, then it's just ordinary.
Damn, while the first 79 chapters have some minor flaws, they don't affect the overall plot and reading experience. The story flows smoothly and is readable. What the heck is this Chapter 80? These two bosses, who're over a hundred years old combined, are acting like idiots, trying to raise prices in front of reporters? What good will it do them regardless of who wins?
The ideas were good, but the methods were outdated. The pretentious and face-slapping plots felt too contrived, and the story conflicts were stiff. Plus, so many directors don't write like that, but Johnnie To, with his biased approach, did. So, goodbye.
The password is Zhao Yazhi 😅😅😅 Let her rest, it's really tiring to watch, and being a third party in someone else's marriage like this is really easy to get reported 😅😅😅
