*The adapted drama series "My Senior Brother is Too Steady" will premiere on Youku and iQiyi on August 19th.* *The anime adaptation of "Senior Brother, Senior Brother" on Youku is nearing its end.* Reborn in the ancient era before the Investiture of the Gods, Li Changshou became a minor Qi cultivator. He had no special luck or was not a chosen one destined for great calamity. He only had one dream: to cultivate immortality and achieve eternal life. In order to survive in the cruel prehistoric world, he tried his best to avoid karma, always scattering the ashes of those he killed, planning everything before acting, and never easily stepping into danger. He conceals his trump cards, cultivates stealth techniques, refines elixirs and poisons, wields supernatural powers, remains as still as an old dog when still, but when he moves, he is earth-shattering, and after moving, he quietly disappears. Originally, Li Changshou planned to hide in the mountains and cultivate peacefully until he became an immortal. However, one year, his master, feeling restless, brought him back a junior sister...

(My new book, "The New Book," has been released. It tells the story of a time traveler's battle against the chosen one of the worlds during the Xin Dynasty.) At the end of the Warring States period, China experienced a great upheaval unprecedented in a thousand years. Some people are born into noble families. Some of them are noblemen. He was reborn as Hei Fu, a lowly soldier in the Qin state, a minor figure in the Qin bamboo slips of Yunmeng. To avoid dying in the ravine and to take control of his own destiny, he struggled to climb upwards. Fortunately, he was born in a great era. The six kingdoms were defeated, and the world was unified! A thousand years of bloodline could not withstand the power of military merit bestowed upon one. The nobles and powerful of the six kingdoms were all trampled underfoot by Qin officials. Hei Fu could only laugh and ask: Are kings and generals born with a special destiny? He conquered the Baiyue in the south, repelled the Xiongnu in the north, forced the Di and Qiang tribes to flee west, and sent warships eastward. Within the six directions, all was the Emperor's land. How did history change under his influence? Qin Shi Huang was destined to die, and the empire would soon be divided. As a Qin official, what choice should one make: to fuel the flames or to try and save the day?

Curator note

Since Pangu separated heaven and earth, the Three Sovereigns ruled the world, and the Five Emperors established order, humans have been the most intelligent beings in the world... This was during the late period of the Human Emperor, one of the Three Sovereigns, before the Five Emperors were established, and the human race was not yet the most intelligent of the world. This is a wild and untamed era, where gods, evil gods, and heavenly gods stand in great numbers, and demons, evil spirits, and heavenly demons run rampant. All races coexisted, grew wildly, and ruled the world, while the human emperor grew old, and the human race became weak, used as sacrificial offerings and food... This is not the primordial wilderness, but a wild and untamed wilderness! Returning to classical Chinese mythology, this story chronicles humanity's triumphant rise from the ashes in the wilderness.

"In the far East, there exists a strange little shop that has repeatedly refused Michelin three-star ratings. The prices are exorbitant; a bowl of fried rice with soup costs 288 RMB, oh, and it includes a side of kimchi, yet even so, long queues form. They don't accept reservations, only walk-ins, and countless people arrive by private jet specifically to queue, though of course, no parking or landing spots are provided. The service is appalling; customers are expected to serve themselves, clear their own dishes, and even wipe the tables!
