After Ending My Contract, I Became a Top-Tier Star by Riding on Variety Shows

Lin Ye, an overworked wage slave who put in 996 hours in his previous life, worked himself to death. When he opened his eyes, he had transmigrated into a parallel world and become an obscure, eighteenth-tier celebrity, recently squeezed dry by his agency, dropped from his contract, and left drowning in debt. In his previous life, he was too busy to see the world and never saved a penny. Exhausted in body and mind, Lin Ye swears that this time he absolutely won't get caught up in the entertainment industry. He just wants to livestream his travels across the land, lie flat, and enjoy a good life!

But who could have guessed he had a built-in "variety-show magnet" constitution? He goes to unwind in an ancient town and runs into Back to Field; he goes beachcombing and bumps into Go Fighting!; he goes hiking in the snowy mountains and encounters Running Wild with Bear Grylls. Even when he travels abroad to visit famous sights, he manages to run into an international variety-show production crew!

As a Tai Chi heir, he can casually take down unruly guests. His knowledge is so extensive that he can explain the history and legends behind every attraction on the spot. He speaks bluntly and is always dropping memorable quotes. With his sly trickster nature, he loves to mess with guests who rely on gimmicks. Though he clearly looks like a laid-back guy who "doesn't want to be part of the scene," he makes a name for himself every time through sheer ability.

The whole internet goes from "Who is this? Just chasing clout, right?" to "Where's Lin Ye? I won't watch the show without him" and "Please make Lin Ye a regular on variety shows!"

Even more surprising to him, on a period costume variety show, he reunites with the "Liu Yifei" of this parallel world, Liu Xixi. This goddess at the very top of the entertainment industry turns out to be his childhood sweetheart, the girl who depended on him and he on her as they grew up, and she has quietly kept tabs on him for years.

From an obscure, dropped, washed-up celebrity to a top-tier star and movie emperor adored by the whole internet; from being all alone to spending his life with his childhood sweetheart. Lin Ye says, "I really didn't want to get into the entertainment industry. I just wanted to livestream my travels. How did I accidentally become a legend?"
