The Racing Driver's Retired Life
Plagued by injuries, Jiang Yuan was forced to retire at twenty-seven and settle into a life of leisure. She could never grip a steering wheel again, and could only begin her retirement with a few hundred million to her name and a heavy heart.
By chance, she joined an outdoor athletic competition show notorious for being a death trap.
Then everyone watched as she carried a basket of potatoes for several kilometers and still had the energy to go rock climbing. After picking two baskets of corn, she even snapped an apple off a tree with her bare hands.
The other celebrities did the same work and ended up exhausted. "Wait, isn't this supposed to be a relaxing wellness show?"
The celebrities: "..."
When the show crew carefully set up a skateboarding segment, hoping the contestants would make fools of themselves and make the young heir's smooth, stylish jump look even better, Jiang Yuan lifted her board and did a kickflip. "That's it?"
While everyone else was fighting tooth and nail for a magazine cover, she became the cover star of Time, with half the magazine devoted to her life story.
As celebrities competed to boast about their endorsement deals, Jiang Yuan, who had become a Ferrari ambassador at twenty-two and still had a valid contract, looked completely baffled.
While countless performers at home and abroad went to extraordinary lengths to land a role in Top Speed, Jiang Yuan, the real-life inspiration for the film's main character, was lounging at home and telling her agent:
"Acting? No way. I can't sing in tune, either, so all I can do is appear on retirement reality shows. The variety shows here are easy, pay well, and the guests are good-looking and fun to talk to. I love being on them."
Jiang Yuan had always been a sucker for a pretty face. Back in the racing paddock, she once felt so bad about beating an opponent who was ridiculously good-looking that she apologized. "I didn't mean to."
After she entered showbiz, she found herself dazzled by all the beautiful faces around her.
It wasn't until she met Cheng Yi that she understood the saying, "No beauty in the palace can compare."
Cheng Yi was handsome and a good actor. His portrayal of a stubborn, frail young man in his signature work, I Only Knew After Meeting You, had moved countless people in Huaguo.
The only worrying thing was his poor health. He looked delicate and frail, as if he might topple over at the slightest touch. Out of concern for the weak, Jiang Yuan looked after him everywhere on the show. After all, everyone has a duty to look out for a pretty face.
Much later, Jiang Yuan was pinned to the bed, her hands restrained and no way to fight back. She stared at Cheng Yi's sharply defined abs, expressionless: "..."
What the hell do you mean, delicate and easy to topple?
Cheng Yi deserved his Best Actor title.
A fake delicate, frail, easy-to-topple but truly scheming Best Actor x a maxed-out, naturally ruthless racer
P.S. There is no racing content. Aside from letting her cheat the system, the heroine's identity as a racing driver has no other significance.
The heroine only imagines the hero as delicate and frail. The hero takes the opportunity to play along, and is a real Best Actor both on and off the screen.
Theme: Love life and enjoy it.
