Building a Godfather of Cinema

Reading this book gives you a glimpse into the rapid development of the entertainment industry over the past five years. It's incredibly fast! In 2014, the Chinese entertainment industry didn't seem to have any films grossing over 2 billion yuan, and this year, only September, they already have two films nearing 5 billion.

If her mother weren't by her side, would she still be your beloved, ethereal Liu Yifei? Without her mother, can you imagine her surrounded by scandals and controversies, still the beautiful person in your heart, still the one you liked as a child? Although her career isn't as successful as everyone imagines, her mother brought a daughter loved by everyone to the forefront. At least everyone likes her, and I like that kind of person too.

Choosing Liu Yifei as the female lead is the most suitable decision. Firstly, while her family background may not be as prestigious as a certain actress's, it's still far from ordinary; a deeper understanding reveals this. Secondly, she's always been raised in luxury, so her standards and aspirations are very high, and she has very little interest in material possessions.

It feels incredibly naive. What's with this talk of acquiring Beijing Film Studio and Han Sanping joining? Beijing Film Studio is the official mouthpiece, and Han Sanping is a powerful figure within the system, the supreme ruler of all film companies. How could he possibly go and work for one of his underlings…

Post a few pictures

You're always vying to be the lead, while our leads are getting movies and TV shows made, and we're practically begging for roles—it's hilarious!

Every time I see a book about Sisi (Yifei), I feel strange. I always feel uneasy. 😆

The novel's protagonist isn't reborn, which is a good premise in itself. However, the movies within the story are all based on real events, without any adaptation, which is seriously unrealistic and becomes increasingly awkward to watch. It would have been better to have set it up as a rebirth from the beginning.

The protagonist is a shameless simp.

After looking at the movies the author wrote about, well, they're just so-so. They're mostly just average domestic films, some even failing miserably. People have only heard of them because they're considered lowbrow. Look at other films like "King of Bad Movies" and "Masters of Cinema"—they directly remake Hollywood classics like Gone with the Wind, Jurassic Park, Forrest Gump, and Sunny Days. That's what a cinematic godfather should be making!
