This Film Student Is Almost Sinfully Straight-Laced!

[Urban fantasy] [Parallel world] [Light novel] [Entertainment industry] [Positive energy] Gu Wannian was a ghostwriter screenwriter who had spent ten years in the industry in his previous life. After dying suddenly, he wakes up back in 2008 at the arts college entrance exam and binds to a mysterious Righteousness System! Spout positive energy, and your directing skills improve! And so the entertainment industry witnesses the biggest injustice in history: a cynical old hand with a belly full of mischief is forced to become the most righteous person in the room. At the exam, while everyone else writes their answers, he gives a speech. He spots the fake donkey in a famous painting at a glance and gets thrown out of the exam hall, only for master painter Qin Henian to inspect the painting himself and invite him back. His flute rendition of “Butterfly Lovers” fools the whole exam hall, but not him. In the camera-memory test, a wealthy heiress memorizes 47 cameras, while he memorizes 178, shattering a seventeen-year record on the spot. Outside the exam hall, he stands up to a security guard and offends a renowned professor over an “Actor’s Manifesto,” earning 500 Righteousness points in one go. His words are all sacred wisdom, while his mind is full of sarcastic complaints. Everyone thinks he’s righteous. Only the System knows he’s wicked. Putting on an act once is a trick. Doing it a hundred times is a skill! Eventually, he even starts believing it himself. From arts college hopeful to leading figure in Chinese-language cinema, this is the story of how “pretending to be righteous for long enough makes you the real thing.”
