This is just a worse version of 'from sidekick to bigshot'. The novel which it copies already has like 680 chapters translated ready to read. When people say this novel is "similar" to 'from sidekick to bigshot' that's being generous to the point of being outright dishonest, this novel isn't a novel with a similar/copied premise that the author then goes and creates something new with. Here the "author" has literally copied plot point by plotpoint to the point where this book literally has value existing at all. You couldn't even call the person who wrote this an author because they haven't created anything at all

I completely agree with you, to the point that I call it what it is in my posted comment:plagiarism. I hope that’s not the case, but so far, ummm…

true, there are even paragraphs narrated that doesn't make sense when you put all of them together. it's like they just copy pasted it and changed and added a few things to make it seem different but you can still see it from the flow of the narration.

I do agree that the premise for this series is pretty much the exact same as From Sidekick to Bigshot, but it is not the first time that stories with very similar openings and plots have appeared on Webnovel. While My Wife Slaps People in the Face Online Daily is not a complete copy, it is still very similar to Ma'am You've Been Uncovered. We also have Reincarnation Businesswoman: Miraculous Hand Space Hunting the Major which has quite a lot of similarities with Reincarnation of the Business Woman at School. Not to mention the ones that all start with a one-night-stand due to various drugs or get entangled with the ML for other reasons. I feel that the reason we notice this similarity much more clearly than the other novels is that the setup is rather unique and that the first few chapters really are way too similar, however, like the other stories, it slowly begins to float away from the novel we are familiar with, and becomes a pearl of entertainment in its own right. So, what I am trying to say with all of this is, I think that we should definitely work hard to allow for this story to get released. Only by continuing to read it will we know if it is truly a case of plagiarism. Also, keep in mind that the trial reads all are translations from novels that can be found in Qidian's stock of contracted novels, so both From Sidekick to Bigshot and The Side Character's Hidden Boss! are contracted with Qidian. For now, we are not certain which one of these books was written before the other (as their original language, I would assume, is Chinese, and we only got access to the translation without knowing the title of the original story. For all we know, this story might even be written before From Sidekick to Big Shot). Also, if an author finds another story that seems to have stolen their work, they are usually able to contact their content editors, which makes it rather seriously, so based on these thoughts, I am positive about the future of this story, and believe that it is definitely worth the effort to support!
