Blacklisted? My First Move After Making It Is to Take Down the Entertainment Industry

Gu Chen was a minor celebrity, blacklisted by the powers that be. That very night, he awakened a System.

“Beginner mission: Expose corruption. Reward: Beginner’s gift pack.”

He exposed tax fraud at a company and received a laser gun fifty years ahead of the rest of the world. After reading three hundred chapters of web fiction, he made a decision: hand it over to the state.

And so Longguo gained a new department: the Sword Special Investigation Unit, directly under the central government and empowered to requisition any resources. Its director: Gu Chen.

A national leader shook his hand. “Xiao Gu, do a good job.”

Gu Chen nodded. “The first sword after making it ashore should strike my former employer.”

A seven-person squad, black trench coats, sunglasses, heading straight for Xinghen Entertainment. The news exploded across the internet. Zhou Chenghai was handcuffed, Liu Ruhui confessed, and Deputy Director Zheng was arrested in public. Netizens went wild: “The Sword! How do we report something?”

Gu Chen: “The app’s in development.”

After bringing down Xinghen, he received his mission reward: a USB drive. Gu Chen plugged it into a terminal at a military base, and blueprints filled the screen. A scientist’s hands trembled. “Elder Zhao… These are the complete engineering plans for a controlled nuclear fusion confinement system!”

Elder Zhao immediately made a call. “Elder Qian, get over here!”

Gu Chen stepped into a corner, looking at the screen and then at his own hands. Just a few months ago, the powers that be had trampled him underfoot. Now, those hands held something capable of reshaping the country’s entire energy landscape.

Blacklisted me? Thanks. Without you, the Sword wouldn’t exist today.

[There’s a System, but the protagonist doesn’t rely on it too much; his teammates are all god-tier big shots; the rewards are so shocking they’ll make your jaw drop every time]

[No brainless face-slapping. Just clean, decisive, overwhelming victories]

“The first sword after making it ashore strikes the entertainment industry. Where do you think the second one will land?”
