[Career-focused main plot! Content warning: After chapter 24, there is almost no game-related content. Chapter 44 has about 300 words because it's needed for the plot, mainly involving a male character's secret identity being exposed.]
Everyone said Jiang Tang was a great actress who knew how to work a room. She had everything going for her except an unremarkable face, so she was destined never to make it big.
She didn't believe them. After years of struggle, she finally became a Best Actress.
Then she transmigrated into a parallel world as a little-known star with the same name. The star was utterly ordinary, except for a face as beautiful as a flower.
This time, Jiang Tang didn't want to work hard. She decided to make a living off her looks.
No memories? No problem. The little star had an almost pitifully simple social life. A hopeless romantic? No problem, she'd give the jerk a face-slapping. Mocked for having no acting skills? No problem, she'd show off her abilities on an acting competition variety show. She did TV dramas and starred in films by famous directors, tackling both at once and becoming a huge star.
She'd clearly meant to be a pretty ornament, so why had she turned into such a workaholic? Jiang Tang wondered as she applied a face mask.
* The male guests who appear may not necessarily be romantic interests. The main plot focuses on her career, with romance as a secondary storyline.
* The original idea was to practice writing romance, but it seems to have become career-focused. The heroine won't only date one person. Appearing first doesn't mean a character is the male lead, and dating first doesn't mean he's the male lead.
* Don't complain. I won't change it. I've got plenty of chapters saved, a fresh 200,000 words. More frequent updates after it goes premium.
* Thanks for your support!
Coming soon: "When I Got a Popularity System [Entertainment Industry]"
Blurb: Jiang Hui debuted as a child star and became famous across the country. An illness during puberty caused her to gain weight, and she was mocked in lists and roundups as the top child star who'd grown up ugly.
She was branded with disgrace and gave up on herself, overeating in a vicious cycle that only made things worse.
Caught in the middle of her parents' argument, Jiang Hui slammed her head against a door and discovered that she was a side character in an entertainment-industry romance novel!
Not only that, when she woke up, she had a System.
It was a popularity System. Any genuine popularity she earned could be converted into energy, which she could use to improve her health.
System: [You must not commit crimes or make the news. Though that would bring a lot of popularity, a System with proper values can't approve of that.]
With the System, Jiang Hui makes her way back into the entertainment industry, stirring up a storm and becoming the undisputed queen of popularity.

Coming soon 2: "I'm Done Being the Lucky Carp Heroine!"
Blurb: For the first twenty years of her life, Jiang Ruan was treated like a princess. Her family doted on her, as did her boyfriend. She herself was gentle and sweet, with none of the airs of a rich young lady.
But one day, her life changed.
What if you learned that your family wasn't really your family, and that they only treated you so well because of your [lucky carp fate]?
She had been frail since childhood, unable to do anything dangerous and kept as carefully as a fish in a glass tank. If she had remained a fish forever, she would never have learned the truth. But one day, the glass that had been deliberately built around her shattered, and Jiang Ruan saw the truth.
When she was three, she wished that her father's business would prosper. The Jiang family's income grew year after year, but she fell seriously ill, and her health never recovered.
When she was seven, her childhood sweetheart fell into the water. She saved him, and afterward she could no longer run around freely. She had to be careful just to avoid falling on level ground.
When she was eleven, her father wanted to crush a business rival, so Jiang Ruan became unable to tolerate sunlight. She had to carry an umbrella whenever she went out, or her skin would break out in sores.
When she was twelve...
Jiang Ruan escaped.
Later, the Jiang family parents' fortune dwindled until they were as poor as they had been at the start.
Her childhood sweetheart and fiancé suffered the aftereffects that should have been his all along.
In a remote border town, alone and having left everything behind, Jiang Ruan found herself again and discovered her own salvation.

The ending was quite unexpected... I have to respect the author's ideas. At the beginning, I really liked and was really attracted by this story. Each chapter is not only fat but also informative. It makes people look forward to the subsequent development of the heroine. At the end, I really feel powerless... Anyway, keep up the good work. I hope the author can bring more and better works in the future.
This is probably the only novel that shows the long production cycle of TV series, right? It takes more than four or five months to shoot a TV series, and several months of post-production, and then you have to wait for the issuance of licenses and schedules.
Mu Ning is not the neighbor who is afraid of society, right?
I hope this relationship can last longer. Although I know that the neighbor is the hero, I don't really want them to get together soon. It doesn't feel right.
Spread flowers, spread flowers, spread flowers~~
The meaning of life is more than love. A higher level of growth is the recognition of oneself. Our lives and characters are shaped in various environments, for better or worse, and we eventually break free from the original shackles and return to our original selves. Therefore, neither Jiang Tang nor the author should be coerced by external voices. We should have goals and move forward. We will eventually become better versions of ourselves.
Mainly because the plot behind the entertainment industry is rather sloppy. As someone who has been following it, I hope to pay more attention to the portrayal of the career line.
Roar! Good night!
Have a great weekend~~
