Chapter 36 - Female Boss (1/2)
Chapter 36 – Female Boss
As explained by Fang Xie, the “Mysterious Notebook” was indeed a Mary Sue** drama tailored by the management for Su Jin, a popular flower
**T/N : A Mary Sue is an idealized and seemingly perfect fictional character.
Aside from being a typical Mary Sue drama, it was also a “reverse harem”.
“What does reverse harem means?” Su Jishi didn’t understand.
“In dramas with ancient times setting, the Imperial Palace was surrounded by beautiful and charming concubines, but in reverse harem, handsome men are swarming around the heroine.” Fang Xie explained earnestly.
“—what the heroine has to do is to be gentle, kind and honest forever. Even if she encounters setbacks and difficulties, her face must be sunny. Even if the handsome guys fall in love with her, she should keep her heart calm and not be dazzled by infuriating goblins**.”
**T/N : Goblins – a metaphor for the drama villains.
This movie was a fantasy love comedy with an urban background. The plot was of course humorous, with some fantastic ideas that little girls like.
The scene made beautiful and romantic. At the end of the movie, the heroine finally decides to stop relying on the power of the love notes she wrote on the mysterious notebook. At the side of the road, she left the notebook waiting for the next predestined person to come its way…
The movie was anticipated in the coming Spring Festival, which coincides with Valentine’s Day. Whether it’s family leisure, friends gathering, or lovers dating, this romantic comedy would make people want to pay for tickets!
The retake of the scenes was actually made because the female entertainer who plays “female boss on campus” was blacklisted by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) for committing hit and run under the influence of alcohol.
She was not only facing heavy charges, but was also expelled by many advertisers and film television companies.
