Synopsis

[Showbiz + slacking off + meme-filled comedy + plagiarism for fame + cozy everyday life]

Lin Ming transmigrates to Blue Star and becomes a top-tier star in just two and a half years by making a name for himself with borrowed works.

But throughout the process, Lin Ming never feels the slightest bit of happiness.

Every day, he’s either appearing on a variety show or taking part in some program. He doesn’t have a moment of privacy to himself.

Fed up with this life, Lin Ming decides to give up trying.

“Lin Ming, I signed you up for a variety show called Keep Running, Brothers.”

“Not interested. I’m not going!”

“Lin Ming, I signed you up for a competition called I Am the King of Singers.”

“Not interested. I’m not going!”

“Then what do you want to do?”

“I just want to slack off!”

From then on, Lin Ming keeps going further down the path of doing as little as possible.

He turns down every appearance and event, wanting only to enjoy life at his own pace.

“Ming, want to grab barbecue and beer?”

“Send me the location. I’m on my way!”

“Ming, we’re at Wanli Reservoir. We’ve just baited the fishing spot, and the fish are biting like crazy.”

“Holy crap, wait for me! I’m grabbing my rod and heading over!”

“Ming, want to take a road trip to Tibet?”

“I’ve sent you the location. Hurry over and pick me up!”

“Ming, I’m getting married. Come feast with us, and hurry!”

“Hahaha, a wedding feast? I’m in! Wait for me. I’ll use my Maybach as your lead car!”

…

Lin Ming only meant to slack off, but for some reason, his fame just keeps growing.

His agent and the entertainment company: What the heck? Weren’t you supposed to be slacking off? How did you become a top-tier star?
