Best Picks in Showbiz and Period Fiction (Updated 2026-10-28)
A list of entertainment novels I'm following. If you like this genre, give them a try. I often check the rankings. This genre is relatively easy for new authors to write, but competition is fierce too. I update regularly, so keep an eye on changes to the list's title.
Chinese Entertainment: Young Actresses
All the little flower novels are here. Readers are welcome to fill in any missing ones. I'll add more over time, since there's a daily limit on how many books I can add to a list. Come back in a while and browse. I'll write a few thoughts about the ones I've read, and rank them from awesome to awful: Awesome, top-tier, above the rest, NPC, absolutely awful. You're welcome to leave your thoughts too. Thanks!

This is so brainless! They buy the film and television adaptation rights to a novel and then rush to give the company shares and profits from the adaptation...
I've never seen anyone so eager to work for someone else! Even a cotton machine would think you're cowardly! Do you think they'd share your losses if you lost money? It was just a simple investment, but you've turned it into mindless free money giving away, and you even say you don't want to be a pure capitalist. If you hadn't been scammed, you would have been devoured long ago! So utterly brainless.
No way, you've already finished editing your self-directed movie, it's ready for release, and you're going to play a supporting role in a TV series? Do you think your readers are stupid? You invest in this and that, making all that big of a show? And then you go and make a TV series?
Yang Mi appears more often in Chinese entertainment novels now than Lao Liu. The problem is that Yang Mi isn't pretty. In her early days, with her square face, did anyone really compare her to Liu Yifei?
Shennong
Overall it's pretty good, but it reads a bit like a primary school student's essay—a rambling, disjointed account. If it was already so amazing in the beginning, why was that scalper paying for everything, even offering to help people trade stocks? He's just plain crazy.
Yang Mi might inexplicably strike up a conversation with a nobody like you. She might even kick you and stomp your feet. Have you even known each other for a day?
Sigh, it was a great idea, but it was poorly written. One issue is that there are too many women. While the author's writing is good, they should actually reduce the number of women and make each female character more memorable. Also, given the strict censorship on Qidian these days, since detailed descriptions are generally not allowed, why include so many women?
This is so boring. The protagonist is constantly facing setbacks and compromises. Do I have to wait until the grand finale when he becomes a fortune before I can finally breathe a sigh of relief? All those frustrating scenes in the beginning are just making me feel uncomfortable.
I really laughed when I saw Chapter 252
The author probably didn't expect that Han Hong would explode 🤭. Taking other people's money to earn her own reputation, and then using charity donations to improve her quality of life, Han Hong is really awesome🐮
Sun Yuchen A big fat pig in the cryptocurrency circle, realizing he might be about to be fleeced, spread rumors about Jing Tian, a celebrity who is perceived as having a powerful background but whose reputation has actually crumbled, to demonstrate his toughness (actually, he's a coward). He also played the role of "Wa Xue Di" (a popular online personality) in a short essay (using memes to spread quickly), thereby increasing his fame in an attempt to protect himself.
I can understand an author creating an original film, but what exactly is your original content? What have you adapted? You haven't even explained the content. You just summarize it in a few sentences and call it a movie? Isn't this just pure self-indulgence? At least divide it into three chapters and explain the details of the film. Isn't this constant self-indulgence unsettling?
