Description
Su Ning, a behind-the-scenes genius in the entertainment industry, known as the “golden touch,” unexpectedly transmigrates into an entertainment novel as a spoiled, throwaway character. Good News: He’s a top-tier agent in his original life, so his skills are a perfect match for his new role. Upon transmigrating, he immediately finds employment as an agent. Bad News: He didn’t catch the protagonist’s name and has no idea who it is. The only snippet he remembers from the novel’s summary is that it’s a tragic, no-romance entertainment story with a bleak ending. The main character is an unlucky talent who suffers from sabotage, betrayal, and ultimately dies in sorrow. In short, it’s heartbreaking. According to the typical transmigration rules, a miserable protagonist like this needs rescuing by a transmigrated character like Su Ning. Determined Su Ning: Whatever, if I can’t figure out who the protagonist is, I’ll just save everyone I meet and see what happens. On his first day, Su Ning quickly rescues a pitiful young trainee who’s being bullied. The kid is obedient, adorable, hardworking, and, most importantly, pitiful. Su Ning decides to take him under his wing. Raising the protagonist? Think of the bragging rights! However, Su Ning has chosen the wrong target. The real protagonist was already reborn at the start of the novel. Shen Mingzheng is the estranged son of the Shen family, who was only found as an adult. Now, reborn, he’s back with a dark ambition. He knows this world is a th**ny, corrupt place, especially the ruthless entertainment industry where everyone is out for themselves. His goal is to use every advantage to climb his way to the top, eventually taking over as head of the Shen family. From day one, Shen Mingzheng realizes that Su Ning’s “soul” has been swapped. He then watches, bemused, as the newly-arrived Su Ning promptly rescues a character destined to become an all-powerful villain and proceeds to treat this “disguised carnivorous plant” like a harmless kitten. Shen Mingzheng: …So weird. Better keep watching… The more he watches, the more intrigued he becomes. So he promptly hijacks the marriage alliance initially set for the Su and Shen families and becomes Su Ning’s contract “husband.” His initial plan is simple: leverage this “interesting” person to help him climb even higher. But this “family” setup soon proves more complicated than he anticipated. For some reason, Su Ning seems to attract every troubled artist in the industry—idol trainees robbed of resources, actors hidden away in obscurity, unlucky singers—all damaged and th**ny individuals who grew up in darkness. Su Ning, however, handles them all as if they’re just scrappy little kittens needing a gentle pet. “Don’t worry,” Su Ning says. “I’m here.” In time, these struggling actors win awards, the once-overlooked idol rockets to stardom, and the discouraged singer’s new release tops the charts for months. Known as the rising stars of the entertainment industry, they publicly express in awards speeches that the greatest salvation in their lives was Su Ning. And to Shen Mingzheng, Su Ning becomes his one and only salvation as well. So, being the “stepdad” to a pack of deceptively sweet, secretly scheming little monsters—at least when they’re in front of Su Ning—doesn’t seem all that hard to bear. Summary: • MC: A transmigrated, clueless “fatherly” character who raises supposed “protagonists” but mistakes villains as lovable sidekicks. • ML: The true protagonist, a dark, reborn mastermind who’s captivated by the MC’s peculiar charms.

My Thoughts on I Made The Top Star
"I Made The Top Star" promised a wild ride through the entertainment industry, and while it delivered on some fronts, it also took a few unexpected turns that left me with mixed feelings. Overall, I found it to be an enjoyable read, but not without its flaws.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the premise of a protagonist navigating the cutthroat world of showbiz with a second chance. The tags – black belly, calm protagonist, power couple – painted a picture of a clever and strategic MC paired with a strong ML. The early chapters hooked me with the promise of industry intrigue and a blossoming romance.
What Works Well
What I appreciated most was the focus on the business side of the entertainment industry. The maneuvering and scheming were genuinely fun to follow. I also enjoyed the dynamic between the MC and ML. Their relationship felt natural and sweet, with a lot of tolerance and understanding. The MC's role as a "guardian figure" for his artists was also compelling, portraying him as someone genuinely invested in their success and well-being.
The plot, especially after the MC takes over the company, is well-written, and the author makes the characters feel genuinely real and refreshing. Many readers noted that the story seriously tackles the dark side of the entertainment industry, which adds a layer of depth and realism that I appreciated.
Areas of Concern
However, I did find some aspects of the story less satisfying. The portrayal of the MC's achievements sometimes felt underwhelming. While he was supposed to be a top agent, it wasn't always showcased effectively. The ML's rapid descent into "lovestruck fool" also felt a bit jarring and detracted from his initial cool and calculated persona.
I also wished there was more development of the MC using his top manager skills on a wider range of entertainers. The focus on a single boy band for a significant portion of the story felt limiting. Some of the villains also felt a bit cartoonish and self-imploding, which reduced the tension and stakes.

Final Verdict
Despite these drawbacks, "I Made The Top Star" remains a decent read with a sweet romance and interesting character growth. If you're looking for a story that delves into the business side of showbiz with a focus on character relationships, this might be right up your alley. Just be prepared for some inconsistencies and a few plot points that might not fully live up to their potential.
