Description
“Transmigrated to Another World, Xu Feng awakened the [Entertainment Mercenary System] , which grants him corresponding ability boosts based on the amount of compensation offered by others.” Thus, in the stagnant waters of the entertainment industry, there suddenly appeared a star with a rather peculiar style. … A certain famous director: “I’ve worked with Xu Feng many times. I admit his acting skills are excellent, but his practice of adjusting his performance based on the pay is, in my opinion, a waste of his talent! Young people shouldn’t be so concerned with money.” A guest from a variety show: “Who understands this guy? I asked Xu Feng to finish in the top five, and he immediately quit after reaching fifth place! His singing could’ve easily won him first!” A top actress, puffing her cheeks in frustration, said: “Xu Feng has no star demeanor at all. He just does whatever he’s paid for, like an emotionless mercenary!” “I suspect Xu Feng worked in a toothpaste factory in his past life because he really knows how to squeeze every last bit!” … “Mr. Xu Feng, this program is very important and highly challenging. It’s a rare opportunity, and we hope you’ll give it your all!” Xu Feng: “Sure, how much does it pay?” “You might not understand what I mean. This program takes place once every three years, it offers great exposure, allows you to build many connections, and is an invaluable opportunity for your future development. People would pay any price to get in!” Xu Feng: “Just one word: no!” “Clear and straightforward pricing, fair to all, from the Oscars down to Baby Bus — however much you pay, that’s how much effort you get! Fame is yours, wealth is mine!”

My Thoughts on This Star Only Wants More Money
I recently dove into "This Star Only Wants More Money," and I have some thoughts to share. With its blend of comedy, drama, and even a touch of the supernatural, it certainly piqued my interest. The tags promised a cunning protagonist navigating the celebrity world with the help of some hidden abilities. After spending some time with it, I can see why it has drawn a dedicated following.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the premise of an alternate world where our protagonist aims to conquer the entertainment industry. The "jack of all trades" aspect, combined with a system providing some "cheats," sounded like a recipe for an entertaining ride. I was expecting a charismatic lead, someone you could root for as they climb the ladder of fame.
What Works Well
The slice-of-life elements are definitely a strength. The story does a decent job of portraying the day-to-day challenges and triumphs of someone trying to make it big. While the story itself is pretty common, I like that the author has written a story that focuses on the protagonist's journey to becoming a star. It can be satisfying to see him slowly but surely achieve his goals.
Areas of Concern
However, I found myself struggling with the protagonist's characterization. He comes off as somewhat robotic, acting more as a vehicle for the plot than a fully realized person. His actions felt dictated by the needs of the narrative, lacking a genuine emotional core. It's like the system is doing most of the work, and without it, he's just… there. I would have loved to see more depth and personality beyond his ambition. I feel that the MC is nothing without the system and that the system really does all the work.
Final Verdict
"This Star Only Wants More Money" has its moments and offers a fairly standard experience within its niche. However, the protagonist's lack of depth is a significant drawback. If you're looking for a lighthearted read with a focus on system-assisted progression, this might be up your alley. However, if you prioritize complex characters and nuanced relationships, you might find yourself wanting more.
