Entertainment: Starting from Signing the Husband Rental Contract Chapter 25 Discussion

  • #1
Take note: not all novels including Chinese ones fully show the reality of the world into what they fictionally write. Everyone is different, especially the stories writers write that they want readers to read whether it be an embodiment of an ideal that they have or the mix of reality and ideal, or an interest that they decide to write on paper.

If this is your cup of tea, then maybe this will be something to help pass your time with, but if it's not, then, go read a different novel.

Firstly, this novel deserves at least a certain amount of consideration which the author has put a lot of effort into writing. The title and summary is... misleading since reading the chapters is the only way to know what the story entails which is one of the things that I didn't give it five stars. It should have given more description and more hook to give readers what the author really wants to write about.

However, the story itself is interesting since the title itself kinda summarizes what the novel is going to be about ----- with a little twist.

Spoiler

Honestly, I kinda expected more when I thought previously that our Male MC would be in a contractual marriage with A wife instead of seven! I expected it to give more shine since at that time I was already speculating between our Male MC and Female Lead, and was even readying for a gut wrenching plot. But having this type of storyline was already enough since seven wives was more than enough to give the Male MC and the other FLs to have interaction, each of them having their own character and possibly growth too.

Yes, our MC can be considered as a "nobody", but not really a nobody since he was a CEO of an entertainment group in his past life which gave him knowledge of the know-hows and the typical setting of what an entertainment industry is like.

The "holy art thou" view of the entertainment industry in this story does not glorify the industry much as, yes, in real life there would be actresses who aren't considered "clean", but the author clearly wants the story to show the FLs to be spotless, not "clean". Moreover, considering that this is conservative China, the author depicted the view that its Chinese actresses would possibly have. Image is incredibly important including actions in a public setting.

All in all, this story has potential to be so much more, but maybe its because the chapters that are in right now are still so few that maybe in the later chapters we'll be able to know more.
