Burdened with a million yuan in contract termination fees, Lin Chen is so hungry he can barely see straight when he finds a broken fishing hook and awakens the All Things Fishing System.
He only wants to catch a little fish to fill his stomach, but his very first cast brings up a box of rusty, old-fashioned hand grenade remnants!
The police immediately cordon off the riverbank, and media cameras swarm the scene. The whole internet mocks him for using the incident to stage a comeback.
Bombarded with questions, the starving Lin Chen says just one thing: “Could someone get me a bowl of noodles?”
From then on, an unbelievable angler appears by the river.
A bronze cauldron, pieces of an ancient shipwreck, and a hidden tomb are among the things he reels in one after another, repeatedly topping the trending lists and earning one commendation after another.
But the predatory contract from his old agency still has him trapped, and he can’t get a single cent from the entertainment industry’s booming profits.
His agency even tries to exploit his newfound fame, while online haters keep spreading rumors and smearing him.
Lin Chen: “Don’t bother me with entertainment industry stuff. I just want to fish, eat, and sleep.”
