Rebirth in Showbiz: Starting from Inheriting a Video Site

Thrown back to 2013, Su Xingzhou finds himself inheriting a niche video platform on the verge of bankruptcy. While industry giants burn cash in a cutthroat arms race for content, Su fights back with a lean, smart strategy—wearing the hats of both celebrity boss and hands-on producer, he greenlights quality originals and acquires undervalued gems to punch far above his weight. He orchestrates media buzz around his golden couple stars, and his self-produced crime thriller Day and Night detonates across the internet. From breakout web dramas to blockbuster films and hit variety shows, his empire rises on all fronts. Asked how he survived the siege of iQIYI, Youku, and Tencent, he quips with a dismissive smirk: "My rivals? Let's just say they're something else." When pressed about which leading lady might become his wife—with names like Liu Haocun, Tian Xiwei, Zhou Ye, Chen Duling, Wang Churan, and Li Yitong floating around—he simply grins: "Easy, I can't name them all in one breath. Keep your questions coming..." Centered on the brightest actresses of the '90s, '95s, and '00s, this is a sharp, fast-paced tale of wit, ambition, and media warfare.
