After enduring hardship in two lifetimes, eighteen-year-old Huo Ran has experienced every side of human nature. The legitimate son of the top-tier Huo family, he was switched at birth by a nanny and abandoned in a poor mountain village, where he suffered years of mistreatment. At eight, he broke free from that misery and made his way alone through the streets, struggling to survive on his own merits. At an ordinary high school, he looks like a rebellious, swaggering school bully, but inside he is clear-headed, disciplined, and immensely talented. He has devoted himself to classical Chinese studies and history, and is skilled in songwriting, music, and painting. For years, he has kept his head down, waiting until adulthood to unlock his creative rights and rewrite his life through his own efforts.
Just as he is about to begin a new life, the Huo family, who lost him eighteen years ago, suddenly appear to reclaim him, offering a fortune worth tens of billions and the inheritance of a wealthy family as an apology. But while searching for him, his family favors Huo Yi, the fake young master who stole his life, and pressures him to tolerate and accommodate him for the sake of family harmony.
At that moment, Huo Ran discovers that he has transmigrated into a ridiculous, over-the-top wish-fulfillment novel. Realizing that the vicious male supporting character is his destined role, he decisively severs his family ties and rejects their claim on him in front of everyone. He has no interest in a rich family’s wealth, no desire to get caught up in melodramatic feuds, and no intention of playing the tragic supporting character who makes someone else shine.
Eighteen is where his legend begins. At his birthday banquet, he has his close friends by his side and pours the lonely courage of his first eighteen years into a song. He makes his way into the entertainment industry, winning fans with original hit songs and outstanding social skills. Then he takes on a deserted-island reality show, where his remarkable abilities leave everyone else in the dust and send him to the top of the popularity charts.
With no wealthy family backing him and no favoritism from blood relatives, Huo Ran relies on his talent and extraordinary self-discipline to turn his life around, break free from the shackles of fate, and forge his own blazing path to greatness.
Yes, I like this main character. The downside is that too many words are devoted to variety shows.
The author writes quite well, combining the real and fake young masters with the entertainment industry, and there aren't too many mindless scenes. I hope it won't be abandoned.
The book is good, a gem in the entertainment category, and definitely readable. Five stars! Keep up the good work, author! 👍👍👍👍👍
A bookworm's recommendation after twenty years! Very interesting.
The self-reliant and inspiring stories are refreshing for modern readers.
I like her personality.
It was very satisfying to write.
Everything is great, it's just that he has too many girlfriends, which is a bit overwhelming.
Hahahahahahahahaha
A light novel. A proper light novel.
