[Explanation: The plot will be filled in someday in the future]
Ning Zhen never expected that she could transmigrate even after dying. She transmigrated into an entertainment-industry novel and became a supporting actress whom no one could make popular.
After transmigrating into the book, she initially planned to quietly leave the entertainment industry and avoid the female lead's halo. Unfortunately, the System wouldn't agree. It insisted that she had to reach an ending where everyone denounced her before it would count.
Of course, Ning Zhen refused to leave the industry by recklessly courting death like the original owner. Luckily, she was a pay-to-win player, so she simply went all in and modeled a variety show after idol group survival programs, making it a competition for contestants who wanted to leave show business.
She gathered 108 washed-up celebrities from across the internet to take part in the competition, then chose nine trainees to form a group before leaving the entertainment industry. Each trainee who successfully retired would receive a ten-million-yuan stipend, with the amount depending on their ranking: the higher they placed, the more they would get.
Before long, a retirement-themed survival show, unprecedented and unlikely ever to be repeated, took the internet by storm.

Extra Scene:
As time went on, people began to appreciate the charms of washed-up celebrities. Fans started begging Ning Zhen to rig the results in favor of their own idols and keep them from leaving the entertainment industry.
"PD, please, rig things for my brother! He's handsome and kindhearted, and with ugly men running rampant in show business, we need his face to save it!"
"Sister Ning, my son finally got a little attention. Please let him off the hook!"
"PD Ning, the kid didn't know any better and signed up for this retirement show. How about you just move a finger and tweak the show's backend, so his retirement vote falls to last place? I swear I'll never hate on you again!"
Ning Zhen saw that and thought, They won't hate on me?
That wouldn't do! She made an earnest announcement on Weibo.
Ning Zhen V: "This program absolutely will not rig the results. All retirement votes are under real-name registration. One vote from you, one vote from me, and your idol will be out of show business in no time. From then on, he'll leave his mark on the industry and become its beloved white moonlight. Isn't that wonderful?"
In less than half an hour, the post had over 100,000 comments, and she swiftly achieved the whole internet's "everyone denounces me" milestone.
She was perfectly satisfied. The lousy System had to be happy now, right?
"Look, everyone is denouncing me. I can leave the industry soon, and I won't get in the way of your male and female leads pursuing their careers anymore."
The System burst into tears. [You're bullying me.]
Ning Zhen had created a retirement competition that became a nationwide sensation, directly squeezing out the female lead's original debut competition until it had no buzz at all. Halfway through the show, it was abruptly canceled.
Before Ning Zhen could leave the entertainment industry, the female lead left first and ran off!
Author's Note:
1. This is an unconventional mixed-gender survival show story, with lots of fan comment and on-screen comment descriptions. If that bothers you, read with caution.
2. None of the stars or contestants in the story are based on real people. They are all original creations. Some competition rules are inspired by various survival shows.
3. Some of the rules involving the entertainment industry, survival shows, and fans are made up by the author and may not exist in real life. Also, real-life fan wars can get really ugly, with people dragging each other's families into it. The fans here mostly use their wits and trade sarcastic barbs at rival fandoms. This is just a fun story to make everyone laugh. Please don't compare it to reality, because it's very different from real life, and doing so will make the novel seem unrealistic. Once again, please don't compare it to reality.

Title: The God of Wealth's Own Daughter Descends to Livestream Fortune Draws
Synopsis:
After Jin Han transmigrated into a novel as the real heiress who was about to be mistreated, her first thought was to run away as fast as she could.
After all, that whole family was crazy, and she absolutely couldn't let them take advantage of her.
After leaving the family behind, Jin Han spent the day worrying about how to make money. That night, she had a strange dream. A middle-aged man, gleaming with golden light, appeared and said,
"Oh, my precious girl, you left in such a hurry that you forgot to take this with you. Keep it safe this time."
With that, the middle-aged man seemed to throw something at her head.
Right after, Jin Han woke from the dream.
When she woke up, she realized something was wrong. Something major had happened. Why was there a transparent fortune-stick container in front of her, with these words on the front?
"Top fortune: The seeker will enjoy one joyful occasion after another."
"Middle fortune: The seeker should go with the flow."
"Bottom fortune: Disaster is about to befall the seeker."
The back said:
"Top fortune: View the seeker's joyful occasion."
"Middle fortune: View the seeker's troubles."
"Bottom fortune: View the seeker's sorrowful events."
Jin Han's eyes lit up. Well, this had to be her golden finger.
She immediately knelt down and kowtowed to the fortune-stick container three times.
"Thank you, dazzling golden grandpa from my dream, for giving me a golden finger. I'll live a good life."
Little did she know that Zhao Gongming, the God of Wealth in the Heavenly Court, was so furious at her words that he glared and bristled.

It's so real, fans are shouting for dreams, but the real owner just wants to make money. Even if you choose not to refund your money, it is because you can make more money in the future.
I fattened up and ended up lonely? ? ?
But I think the first nine people like it very much. Mainly vote for her hhh
It's normal for the entertainment industry to write more about fans' reactions, but this show doesn't write about the stage for the audition, so it's almost meaningless and not that good to watch. It's better to have less daily training in the show. In the later stage, it doesn't write about team building before the end. The several eliminations are also short. Even if the mentor is invited, it should have some drama!
I don't know what the author wants to express in this plot
Wen is ambitious. As long as his mentality is stable and he doesn't break the law, he can stay in the entertainment industry forever.
The first round of elimination has not yet begun, so operations such as vote exchange and mutual voting should not be that early. The goal of fans now should be to ensure that their idols advance with high votes, right?
Well, although it's human nature, it can only be a matter of interest.
I don't understand what the fans are complaining about. If it doesn't work, just quit the competition.
Ah, isn't it good to have daily push data? I quite like it, ugh
