I'm legit trying to understand this...it seems that all the Chinese manhua's are about CEOs, Daddies, or some combination thereof. Is this all Xi let's his people write about?

Same, I just can't figure it out. Why would you post this on General when the Manga forum is more appropriate?

@sterven sorry, this is like the second time I posted here. I wasn't discussing any manga specifically, just a concept in general, hence where I posted. I guess the mods can move it or I can repost the topic.

@Halo thanks! That makes sense, since a lot of these are like fantasies where a "Prince Charming" analogue saves a woman from her circumstances

It's the Chinese equavalent of being isekai'd into a slow life for Japan and trashy power fantasy for Western audience

@DANDAN_THE_DANDAN I'd say it's more like western's trashy romance novels,since those also often have male leads in position of power from their money.

@bigtiddyoneesan If it's equivalent as in "group of evil fighing team", that'd be those sentai series like Power Ranger, amd if it's just "heroes fighting villains" in general, that'd be Kamen Riders and Ultramans series.

I don´t want to brutally shit on the people making this stuff but when you see daddy, yaoi, and for some weird ass reason zombie evolution manhua it might just start to get a liiiittle bland maybe perhaps

Cultivation = shounen / seinen
CEO prince = shoujo / josei

@Richman My friends IRL are about your height and I told them I have a surefire way to win in a fight against them

I just need to stand directly under their chin and then jump as hard as I can. It would likely give them a concussion and put me in a coma so they can do whatever they want with my unconscious body
