6. Your introduction has caught my eye, long stick...
Just develop step by step, instead of constantly talking about top-tier celebrities and capital, trying to earn and grab everything. Entertainment articles are tired of these two terms.
Why is it that even though the protagonist is so popular, no gangsters have held guns to his head and demanded he make money for them?
So far, there doesn't seem to be any major problem.
1. The subject matter and era are well chosen; there are relatively few Hong Kong entertainment films from the 1970s. 2. The cheat system is decent, not too big or too small, and it provides the satisfying experience of leveling up by defeating monsters. 3. The pace is currently quite good, neither too fast nor too slow.
You could write more about your daily life! I haven't seen much of your daily life at all; you've been completely focused on filming and grinding for experience points.
Hong Kong films, with their fast pace, seem to have no shortage of Best Actor winners.
No matter how good your acting is, it still needs to be a box office hit. Commercial films don't really showcase acting skills. Stephen Chow, as Hong Kong's highest-paid actor, frankly, has many actors with better acting skills than him. None of the box office draws in Hong Kong's entertainment industry are based on acting ability. Whether a producer hires you or not depends on your box office performance; nobody cares about your acting skills. They're all making commercial films.
Not bad
Acting is acting; it's okay to have some control over your own career. Don't go on to open numerous companies, sign a bunch of actors, run various commercial companies, and try to make money from every possible source. The approach taken by Orange Dragon Plus is quite good.
Why don't authors share their royalties with readers? Don't they know they should return the money to its rightful owner?
When you receive your royalties, please share some with me. If I don't have money to subscribe, you won't receive any royalties. Then, when you receive your royalties, sharing some with me will give me money to subscribe for you.
It's alright. It didn't immediately start fawning over a female celebrity, and the cheat codes weren't too overpowered; they only increased some martial arts techniques and physical abilities. In other books, the first chapter is all about getting a system and immediately trying to seduce female celebrities on set.
Just wondering, can the main character grow to be over 1.8 Meters tall? If not, I won't waste my time. I personally don't like watching protagonists who are too short.
