After transmigrating to a parallel world, Lin Yuan becomes a down-on-his-luck director targeted by powerful investors. Just then, he gets assigned to make a public legal education program.
With a budget of only 50,000 yuan, the whole internet is waiting to laugh at him, convinced all he can make is a mindless flop about “the village chief taking a few hundred yuan.”
But Lin Yuan whips out the god-tier script, The People’s Rights!
Can’t afford to hire pretty young stars? He heads to a theater troupe and recruits a group of struggling veteran actors.
When the actors receive the script, their hands tremble as they read their lines. “Director Lin, are you sure this show can air? The subject matter is way too daring!”
When the first episode airs, the internet explodes!
“Someone’s having a bowl of fried bean sauce noodles, and there’s a whole wall of cash hidden in a beat-up fridge?!”
“A mysterious escape? The chief Qi who outsmarted heaven itself?”
“Oh my god, they actually dared to film this? This director is incredibly brave!”
Just as the investors mock the show and insist it will never pass censorship, while their fellow directors wait for Lin Yuan to crash and burn… authoritative official media outlets step in to praise it by name, and the relevant departments clear the way for it at every turn!
In real life, a wanted fugitive watches the show on TV, trembling. “Stop airing it! I’ll confess to everything, okay?!”
Lin Yuan: “I’m just a director. How come you watch one show and then turn yourselves in?”
