Shi Xiapei, a young human woman located in a remote galaxy, has been living alone for a long time with no relatives, no reason, no savings, no pets, and she still depends on an old-style mass-produced survival capsule house.
The only special thing about her is that she has a high medical loan due to a serious illness she got when she was a child. It is an amount that she will need to live frugally and work for a lifetime to repay it if nothing unexpected happens.
Now comes the surprise.
A film project that was bold even in the whimsical interstellar era approached her and wanted her to become a glorious... Anonymous extra.
Group performances are group performances, as long as the money is enough - after double-checking the contract, Shi Xiapei happily lay down in the ultra-high-end immersive cabin provided by the company.

And: The special thing about this project is that in order to ensure topicality, the filming method this time is to shield the memories of the various guests, throw them into a virtual environment controlled by the script writer and calculated in real time by the brain, and wear new characters to move around, and then the audience will vote for the story that everyone likes to watch.
Such an adventurous plan naturally involves surprises, such as an extra who is immune to memory shielding, oh no, the "Thousand Faces Guest".

She is always a supporting character in the story, passing through the scenes presented to the audience one after another.
There have always been many characters who have left their mark on the vast web, satisfying people's needs for love, tears, change and reunion, and now she is lucky enough to contribute some of them.
It is a corner of warmth that survives when the city is fighting for profit, or a flash of sword light that suddenly lights up when entering a desperate situation, a cluster of hope that returns from the depths of hell, and holds the faint candlelight to the next group of brave and kind people——
Or maybe, it's just the reflection in the mirror of anyone trying to live a good life in an ordinary story.
Shi Xiapei said: I get paid, the film company gains popularity, and the audience chooses the story they like to watch. This is a three-win, three-win.

(The heroine has no CP, the male and female characters in vests are 1:1, and the audience's perspective is never lost. There is no clear prototype for the movie in the article, it is just a fictional story based on common categories)
