Remixes the Chinese tropes 总裁文 (CEO Romance) + 狼人/吸血鬼 (Werewolves & Vampires).
Chinese tropes it remixes
- 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.
- 狼人/吸血鬼 lángrén / xīxuèguǐ — Werewolves & VampiresNot a Chinese trope at all — Western paranormal romance (alpha/omega/fated mates) poured into the Chinese vertical format. ReelShort's werewolf line was its first North American breakout.
