Synopsis

[Two male leads, entertainment-industry audition show, a hint of everyone-falls-for-him, all songs are original]

On the night of the seven stars aligning, Fang Wenzhu accidentally transmigrates into an unfinished audition-show story where readers bet on who will win.

Other people who transmigrate into books become protagonists or villains, or at worst named cannon fodder. He, on the other hand, is a nobody in the background who can't even get any screen time.

Fortunately, there's always a way out. He gets bound to the “All-Round Beauty Record.”

[ Ding! Top-tier bone structure loaded! ]

[ Ding! Nine-head-tall proportions optimized! ]

[ Ding! Charm from sparkling eyes +100%! ]

Looking at his breathtakingly beautiful reflection in the mirror, Fang Wenzhu smiles with satisfaction. “I'll be a pretty face, coast all the way to the finale, then retire with the prize money. I'll take that script.”

But things gradually spiral out of control

The center-position lead dancer pins him against the backstage wall, voice low and husky. “I still haven't learned the steps you taught me, big brother. Will you teach me again?”

The heir to a financial empire tosses him a black card, eyes dangerous. “I'll buy all your time. Name your price.”

The icy-faced mentor pinches his chin, voice suggestive. “Want an S-grade score? Come to my room and get it.”

Even the top-tier star and award-winning actor from the neighboring production comes over, his fingertips gliding across Fang Wenzhu's collar. “You wore my shirt onstage on purpose, didn't you?”

With the protagonist group closing in like a pack of wolves, admirers everywhere, and old flames demanding he take responsibility, Fang Wenzhu looks at his skyrocketing vote count and nearly cries. “Weren't you supposed to be a betting-show protagonist over there?”

Please update soon! I finally found a story that interests me. I came from Su Ge's story, and the synopsis is so appealing. I hope it's not a 1v1 story. Will I be able to collect all the characters later on?

Four stars. Considering the current number of chapters, it's a very enjoyable read. 1. Song Qiao is portrayed as a rather utilitarian character, a typical brainless cannon fodder who isn't quite a villain, but she made a successful debut (her personality remains unchanged for now), and there's a possibility she'll be redeemed and reconciled later.

Amazing! Xiaozhu's entire transformation is presented clearly and comprehensively. Xiaozhu and Ji Yunran are such a great couple! Even if we take a step back and say Ji Yunran couldn't be the one to take her place, a character like Ji Yunran, who's more like the dominant one, still has his own growth arc. Wishing the author good luck every day, and please update frequently! Oh no!

Help! Author, can you tell me if there's a side couple? Please don't include a brotherly romance! "Most Popular Character" stories are so cheesy! Also, the main character's personality isn't well-developed enough; some of his personal charms aren't particularly prominent. I hope this storyline doesn't end in a 1v1, or maybe he gets everyone or there's no romantic pairing at all. Good luck, author!

The author's writing is excellent, and I love his protagonist. He portrays Wen Zhu very well; he's ambitious, goal-oriented, and strong, sometimes even a bit lazy, like a languid, noble kitten—making you want to protect him, but he's not weak. On the contrary, he has a strong core, true to his name, as resilient as a bamboo stalk.

It's great, really great. I suggest the author revise the synopsis. It has a slightly whimsical feel to it, like a rabbit's web. But after actually reading it, I think the protagonist's core is the strongest element.

It's a good show, but I felt that the romance between Xiaozhu and Ji took up too much space, and there wasn't much interaction between them and the other male leads. It felt like I stopped watching halfway through. If it's purely a "1v1" storyline, could you please clarify that? (Author, please accept them all, don't let any of them go, give the other male leads more screen time)

It looks great, five stars straight. Let me share some points I want to complain about. When I first saw Zhu Zi and Ji Tiantian together, I was quite eager for the main characters to fall in love. But I couldn't stand it later on. The situation took a sharp turn for the worse, changing too quickly without any build-up.

Although it's well-written, I feel it should have included a bit more stage description.

The plot unfolds very quickly, or rather, it's glossed over almost everything. It seems like everything that should have been written about the talent show was just swept away in a flash, written very superficially. It felt like the rambling, narrative essays I wrote in elementary and middle school (?).
