Name: Chinese Showbiz: The Top-Tier Star Director Who Only Promotes Rising Actresses
Author: Two Cats Raise One Person

Synopsis

Rewinding to 2015, Lu Yunzhou binds to a Director System. Every time he makes a film, he gets a reward: [Delayed Aging], [Perfect Physique], [Immune to All Illnesses], and [More Children, More Blessings]!

He only meant to focus on directing and rack up rewards, but the temptation of a million yuan a day proved too much. He took a guest role, and before he knew it, there was no turning back!

…

10 million, 20 million, 30 million… What? I have over a hundred million female fans around the world! They even gave me a nickname: the “Porridge Emperor”?

…

[Only Three Inches of Oar]:“If I were empress, I would grant a general amnesty and make sure everyone had porridge to eat!”

Fan: I’ve already bought a membership to support Empress Chuan in The Queen of Tears. She’ll sweep Asia and become the queen of idol dramas!

[Why Use a Small Field to Kill a Chicken]:“If I were empress, I would grant a general amnesty and make sure everyone had porridge to eat!”

Fan: I’ve already placed my order to support Empress Tian in landing six luxury brand endorsements. Long live the Six-Luxury Empress!

[A Thousand Sails Pass by the Boat]:“If I were empress, I would grant a general amnesty and make sure everyone had porridge to eat!”

Fan: I’ve already bought tickets to support Empress Cun as she conquers the National Day box office again and becomes the youngest Best Actress!

[Little Octopus, Long Legs]:“That’s right, we have a child together.”

Fan: What a load of nonsense. Reported!

…

[Solo Trainee]:“I just introduced Big Bro to a rookie actress…”

Chuan, Tian, Cun, and Nan: “You useless punk, prepare to die!”
