The Lazy Author Who Wrecked Reality

Chen Xuan, a 35-year-old food delivery rider who lives by the motto “lie flat first, live a shameless life,” can’t stand the brutal Beijing winter anymore, so he decides to return to his hometown in Henan and try making money by using AI to write novels. A “Myriad Realms AI” program preinstalled on his secondhand computer turns the celebrity transmigration fanfic he writes to follow the latest trends into reality, word by word…

The instant he uploads the first chapter, Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, and Dilraba are dragged into the world of The Wandering Earth, where they struggle to survive. When they return the next day, a System notification sounds in all three of their minds, and each receives a corresponding package of cutting-edge technology. The clueless author, Chen Xuan, only gets a space station blueprint and a pile of rewards temporarily stored in the System’s space, and he’s still fretting over his dismal earnings of a few cents a day.

A national special command center is established in record time. As it verifies the authenticity of technologies such as “space elevators” and “quantum computers,” it sends Liu Yifei and the other stars to Chen Xuan’s hometown under the pretext of “experiencing rural life,” where they are monitored and guided around the clock. When Chen Xuan realizes that a bunch of famous actresses have inexplicably appeared in his village and keep orbiting him, he touches what little hair he has left and ponders: “Since when did I become this irresistible?”

Meanwhile, his novel keeps updating. The Sword and Fairy 1 carries off Liu Shishi, Yang Chaoyue, and Tong Liya; Iron Man drags away Ni Ni and Tang Yan; then Star Trek and The Three-Body Problem follow… The actresses return with advanced technology to report to the nation, and Chen Xuan’s novel rockets to success with the country secretly giving it a boost. His enthusiasm reignited, he keeps writing while fishing, cuddling cats, bantering, and sharing meals with the stars “vacationing” around him, completely unaware that he has become the “behind-the-scenes director” of humanity’s technological leap forward.
