[Coming soon: Check out My Games Are a Hit Across the Stars]
Ye Yixi is a brilliant director, a creative genius with countless awards to her name. But when she opens her eyes, she discovers that she has transmigrated into the body of a struggling actress with the same name, years in the future.
The actress has no money, influence, or connections. After being framed for trying to ride the coattails of the top-tier star in her production, she's smeared across the internet by a flood of paid posts.
The top-tier star's fans: Useless pretty face, get out of showbiz!
Instead, they get a livestream of their own idol enthusiastically recommending Ye Yixi's work.
The fans: Eyes wide in shock.jpg
Determined to find fault, the fans set out in force to figure out what Ye Yixi has done.
A day later, a few replies bump the towering thread bashing her back to the top of the fan forum:
[Just a casual passerby, is this the useless pretty face you were all trashing?]
[I've secretly taken out everyone who insulted Director Ye. Please, Director Ye, keep making films!]
[Hey, is it appropriate to say that while calling yourself a fan?]
In the year 2777, Blue Star's technology is advancing at breakneck speed, with all kinds of cutting-edge products appearing one after another. The entertainment industry is the lone exception. War caused a cultural break, sending it back several centuries.
Before Ye Yixi burst onto the scene, this world's film industry had languished for a long time.
At the Federation Film Awards, Blue Star natives are never seen. Whenever the awards come around, they become the target of ridicule from across the stars, without even a nomination to their name.
Then Ye Yixi arrives before the world with a film that no one could have anticipated.
Movie lovers across the stars go wild.
PS: A brainless wish-fulfillment story with little logic. The male lead is just a backdrop.
The author is an old-school otaku, doesn't follow celebrities, and the characters aren't based on real people.
Most of the film-related details are from Baidu, and all award backgrounds are fictional.
Coming soon: My Games Are a Hit Across the Stars
Jiang Yuyou, an overworked employee at a major company, suddenly dies while working 996. When she wakes up, she has somehow transmigrated to an interstellar world.
Technology here is advanced, but the cultural industries have almost entirely collapsed. Everyone is hooked on virtual worlds created by immersive games. Countless games with the same themes fight for market share, and the gaming industry is locked in a brutal race to the bottom. Jiang Yuyou's former self was one of the little nobodies crushed by the competition.
Betrayed by her teammates, blacklisted by a game company, and unable to find work, Jiang Yuyou looks at the market's lineup of one-note immersive games and stays perfectly calm. No need to panic. First, she'll make a collectible card game based on the Four Great Classical Novels.
At first, when a game called Investiture of the Gods appears in the public eye, players are thoroughly unimpressed.
- Another one using ancient culture as a gimmick. Can't you game companies come up with anything new?
- Please, some people need to stop exploiting ancient culture. The Cultural Bureau is already overwhelmed.
Then the authorities announce the archaeological discovery of a trove of literary works from the Old Era. Netizens notice that the descriptions of the characters in the unearthed materials seem exactly like their in-game counterparts???
Some people can't resist their curiosity and tentatively download the game. Then...
- Well, I've never been interested in ancient culture, but after finishing this game, all I can say is, who could possibly resist the Great Sage Equaling Heaven? .jpg
- After reading the original, I found that Miss Daiyu in the game is a perfect recreation. I'm obsessed!
- Zhou Gongjin! Aaaah! It's Zhou Gongjin! I saw the real Zhou Gongjin in the game!
Later, Investiture of the Gods becomes a huge hit and ushers in a new era for the gaming industry. Game companies rush to get into the genre. For a while, games based on the Four Great Classical Novels are everywhere.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yuyou, who started the trend, just smiles and pulls out her upcoming immersive martial arts game, Legends of Jianghu and Its Grudges; the open-world mythological game Classic of Mountains and Seas; and the laid-back farming and retirement game A Diary of Life in the Tang Dynasty...
The other game companies still locked in a cutthroat race to make games based on the Four Great Classical Novels: ??? Why don't you play by the rules?
Jiang Yuyou: Sorry! When you're familiar with ancient culture, you can do whatever you want.
Theme: Positive and uplifting
