As an unknown, bottom-tier actor with no connections, no influential friends, and no backing, Jiang Huan's future in show business was easy to predict.
That was how things were supposed to be, until he was suddenly bound to a System that called itself an Underworld Renovation Specialist.
Jiang Huan: ...
Is this the Underworld I'm thinking of? This can't be good...
Jiang Huan scrolled down the task list.
Task [Improve the Underworld's Entertainment Industry]: Progress 0%
Reward: Top Agent + Lead Role in a New Film by a Nationally Acclaimed Director
Task [Increase the Happiness Index of Underworld Residents]: Progress 0%
Reward: Guest Spot on a Top-Rated Variety Show + Professional Acting Training Course
Jiang Huan: I'm suddenly tempted!
After all, the scariest kind of ghost in this world is a poor one!
Jiang Huan rolled up his sleeves and threw himself into renovating the Underworld. The entertainment industry wasn't developed? Then he'd launch Underworld 101, film Ghosts Never Forget, and get livestream selling from the human world going too!
The residents' happiness index wasn't high enough? Then he'd release new styles of burial clothes and urns! Develop all kinds of scented candles, from orange to durian! Hold regular events with rewards like paper money and permits to appear in people's dreams!
As he got on with it, Jiang Huan discovered that he hadn't become famous in the human world yet, but he'd already made it big in the Underworld. At the same time, all kinds of programs and directors came knocking, grasping his hand with tears in their eyes. "My late father (mother) appeared in my dream and told me to create a role (variety show) just for you. Please, give me this chance!"
Jiang Huan: ??
So this is what it feels like to have connections above... no, below. It's great.
Theme: Believe in science! Oppose superstition!
