Getting the job maybe easy, but how many issues she faced after that matters, she had to work hard so she could…
I have been summoned to protect my precious Chu Li!
Although I'm not an editor or publisher, I do know how hard it is for a book to be very successful. Yes, Harry Potter has millions and billions of sales around the world, but did you know that before Harry Potter’s success, it was rejected by 12 publishing houses? J.K Rowling was living on the streets at some point in her life!
While what I just wrote may seem totally off-topic, take a minute to think about J.K Rowling’s journey from penniless to one of the most successful women in the world. If no publishing house accepted her series, then there would not be the awesome series there is today. Yes, Harry Potter’s existence is all thanks to Rowling’s amazing creativity, imagination and writing skills, but we shouldn’t neglect the big role the publishing house and editor(s) had here.
You said that ‘she had another company opportunity also bcz of the job she got easily and the work she shown’. Yes, exactly! The work she showed! You get work opportunities because of your exceptional work abilities in the area!
Here’s the part where I have to continue my Chu Li Defense: The claim that she got the job easily. Chu Li started as an intern in a quite well-known publishing house. Although that might have been luck, the things that came after were definitely not. While other editors were busy trying to sign the big-shot authors, Chu Li was always encouraging the authors to continue their stories. As she encouraged them to not give up, she was not giving up on them and herself as well. I’m sure not everyone would be willing to stay with the same authors and help them out even though their sales were drastically declining and even they themselves were on the verge of collapsing and giving up.
Did you watch the part where her manager declares that she must sign a certain author and must get a certain number of sales to stay? This happens in real life as well. Jobs have deadlines, and some deadlines seem almost impossible, but Chu Li did it!
One last thing before I even find myself annoying lol: Baddies troubling the lead may be a trope, but Chu Li dealt with them well. She proved to them that she could be an amazing editor. Their jealousy got them nowhere.
Although dramas are dramas and real life stuff is real life stuff, some dramas also depict real life problems very well. ;D
+Qiao Jing Jing from 'You Are My Glory', Mo Xiang Wan from 'We Are All Alone', Su Ming Yu from 'All Is Well',…
I find it very concerning that I have only watched one drama from your awesome list. Qiao Jingjing is just precious! We didn't add her as I think YAMG started airing when we submitted the article. Maybe we'll include her in a part 2 if that's possible after my stupid drama break...Thank you for reading!
PS. Gotta check out these Cdramas in the future. ^^
For me:Minglan-she's wittyChuchu- dedication to her wr=orkNi Huang- badass princessWang Xuan / A'Wu- Her class…
I have yet to watch 60% of your list lol! But I've heard of all these FLs! ;D Minglan is just WOW. And with my drama break...Anyway, thank you for reading!

Oh yes, Tang Xue. I love her so much. Maybe we'll write a part 2 after my oh so dreadful drama break. :)
LAR was my fave drama before ALP, but Ancient Love Poetry bumped it down to 2nd lol.
