Origin & tropes
Remixes the Chinese tropes 重生 (Rebirth) + 闪婚 (Flash Marriage) + 总裁文 (CEO Romance) + 追妻火葬场 (Regret & Chase).
Chinese tropes it remixes
- 重生 chóngshēng — RebirthDie betrayed, wake up years earlier with every memory intact, fix everything. The engine behind half of Chinese web fiction; the period-nostalgia version ('Back to 1985') is a genre of its own.
- 闪婚 shǎnhūn — Flash MarriageTwo strangers marry within a day — to dodge a blind date, a will, or a scandal — and fall in love afterwards. Chinese web fiction's favourite way to skip the courtship.
- 总裁文 zǒngcái wén — CEO Romance'President fiction': the cold, obscenely rich CEO and the ordinary woman who thaws him. The ur-genre of Chinese romance webnovels since the 2000s and the default setting of English verticals.
- 追妻火葬场 zhuīqī huǒzàngchǎng — Regret & ChaseLiterally 'chase the wife into the crematorium': a cold husband realises what he had only after losing her, then grovels. Peak angst; comment sections rate how much he suffers.
