Description
Qi Yanning, the former Grand Director of the Shangyi Bureau of the Yuan Yong Dynasty, was a master of clothing and makeup, known throughout the capital for his unmatched skills. After his unexpected death, he found himself reincarnated as an entertainer participating in a talent show, hated by the entire internet! Upon receiving the original owner’s memories, the Grand Director sneered coldly, decisively quit the show, and turned to join another talent show as a stylist. This particular talent show, from the contestants to the production team, had an eccentric aesthetic and terrible styling, earning it the dubious nickname of “Ugly Show 101.” But surprisingly, once Qi Yanning joined, the show started to gain some flair. A rugged man awkwardly forced into a “pretty flower boy” persona? Qi Yanning pinned him down and gave him a crew cut. A fitted black shirt turned him into the man everyone was thirsting for on the hot search list. A cute-looking trainee acting greasy? Qi Yanning sneered coldly, scaring the trainee into becoming as timid as a quail. On stage, he remembered to only wink and never twist his mouth. A pink top with suspenders made him the sweetest “little brother.” A great beauty who feels insecure because of his delicate features? After some thought, Qi Yanning put a silver wig on him, creating a gender-ambiguous AI face that made everyone shout, “Wow, my robot wife!” The show quickly became popular. Random viewers were ecstatic: “It’s been so long since we’ve had a show that’s so pleasing to the eyes!” After that, viewers started noticing more and more: “The once-hated, tacky, and ugly actress has turned into a versatile queen with a full sense of fashion, landing high-end endorsements left and right?” “No one cares about the plot of the idol drama; instead, the same outfits worn by the characters in the drama are selling out rapidly?” “The makeup and styling in period dramas have suddenly become diverse and stunning, leaving people dazzled?” It seemed like overnight, the styling standards in the entertainment industry had been raised a notch. Viewers: “Did all stylists suddenly have an epiphany? Great, great, keep it up—my eyes love this.” Qi Yanning chuckled softly: “Isn’t it just about having hands?” Under the hashtag #DidAllStylistsSuddenlyAttendAdvancedCourses#, someone suddenly revealed: All these stunning makeovers were done by that contestant Qi Yanning, who quit the show in disgrace after being blackened by the entire internet! The gossiping crowd was dumbfounded: “So… he was mocked as being terrible at singing and dancing because he chose the wrong path?!” Good news: Stylists have evolved. Bad news: Only one person evolved. Short Scene: One day, a paparazzo released two photos of Qi Yanning. One shows him in a black suit with long hair, holding a thin cigarette in his mouth, frowning coldly at the camera. The other shows him grabbing a man’s tie and pulling him close. The two are almost breathing in sync, with Qi Yanning’s expression appearing both intimate and warning. The other man, slightly bent over and seemingly at a disadvantage, is holding Qi Yanning’s waist tightly, as if showing weakness yet also showing greed. The hashtag #QiYanningXIntensity# instantly shot up the trending list. While the onlookers were enjoying the gossip, they quickly dug up that the other man was Ling Cangzhou, the CEO of Chenxing Entertainment. The comments section was filled with shock: “Hey, wife!” “Wait a minute, my wife seems to have a husband!” “What? My wife’s husband is also my husband?” While the internet was buzzing over the photos, Qi Yanning and Ling Cangzhou were in a room together. Qi Yanning sat on the edge of the bed, gripping the man’s chin in front of him. He raised an eyebrow and said, “Was the trending search your doing? Got guts, huh?” The usually imposing Ling Cangzhou obediently knelt halfway, trying to press his cheek against Qi Yanning’s hand, looking pitiful, “Now everyone knows I’m yours, isn’t that good? Big bro.” Qi Yanning clicked his tongue, lightly slapped the little rascal, and bit his lower lip. Ling Cangzhou’s eyes lit up and he immediately moved closer. A temperamental stylist (uke) x a love-struck big puppy with a hint of tea fragrance (seme), 1v1, HE.

My Thoughts on I Dominate the Entertainment Industry with My Styling Skills
First Impressions
"I Dominate the Entertainment Industry with My Styling Skills" promised a fresh take on the genre, focusing on the artistry of a makeup artist and stylist rather than the typical idol or actor. The premise of a calm, collected protagonist navigating the chaotic entertainment world with unique skills immediately grabbed my attention. The tags – comedy, shounen ai, slice of life, and yaoi – hinted at a lighthearted and engaging read.
What Works Well
The strongest aspect of this novel, without a doubt, is the detailed descriptions of makeup and styling. The author clearly did their research, and I found myself genuinely interested in the creative process and the artistic vision of the MC. I also enjoyed the "aloof queen shou x loyal puppy gong" dynamic, a refreshing change from the usual domineering CEO trope. I think that the MC's dedication to his craft and the way he elevates those around him is enjoyable.
Areas of Concern
While the initial concept was promising, I found myself growing weary of the repetitive nature of the plot. The "face-slapping" of ridiculously incompetent villains became predictable, and the MC's constant, effortless success felt unrealistic. The romance, while sweet, lacked depth and felt somewhat forced due to the love-at-first-sight trope and the ML's constant puppy-like devotion. Their busy schedules also meant that they rarely spent time together, making the romance feel more like a long-distance relationship.

Final Verdict
"I Dominate the Entertainment Industry with My Styling Skills" is an okay read if you're looking for a light and fluffy entertainment novel with a focus on fashion and aesthetics. However, be prepared for repetitive tropes, shallow villains, and a somewhat underdeveloped romance. I'd recommend it if you're seeking a quick and easy read, but don't expect profound character development or a groundbreaking plot. Ultimately, it's a decent way to spend some time, but not a novel that will stick with me long after I've finished reading.
