An elite prince from an ancient dynasty transmigrates into the present day as Shen Jin, a good-for-nothing in the variety-show scene. After hearing about his former self's glorious and self-destructive record of chasing after “cold-faced movie emperor” Han Anqing, he gets curious and watches one of Han's award-winning films. Then he comments, “His face is all right, but the rest... could he really be better than me?”
The whole internet erupts in mockery.
Movie emperor Han just smiles and ignores it.
Everyone expects Shen Jin to keep lowering the bar and resorting to any means necessary to get Han's attention. Instead, he announces that he's quitting, then joins an obscure travel-and-antique-appraisal show.
From then on, his life seems to have gone into cheat mode:
- He overrules the opposition and saves a national treasure with his discerning eye, making a fool of a crowd of appraisal experts?
- He recites gorgeous poetry on the spot and excels at music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. The masters of Chinese culture can't praise him enough.
- He fits right in on a historical reenactment show, riding horses, shooting arrows, and wielding swords. What a refined, noble young gentleman!
- He even holds his own on an acting competition show? Classical Chinese just rolls off his tongue. The mentors can barely keep up with his performance!
CCTV singles him out for praise: Shen Jin, an elite idol for the new era!
Major variety shows line up to invite him as a regular guest!
Good heavens, when did the young master Shen, who relied on his parents, become so incredible?
Shen Jin tilts his head. “Huh? Aren't these basic skills where I'm from?”
One day, after watching Shen Jin's variety show without moving a muscle, Movie Emperor Han casually tells his manager, “Which show is Shen Jin on? Arrange for me to join it.”
Cold, imposing movie emperor gong x prince who transmigrated from ancient times to the present shou.
Theme: What truly attracts people is inner refinement, not superficial good looks.
