I Rule the Entertainment Industry with Money

After a car accident, Xu Lingyi transmigrated into a book, becoming a cannon-fodder wealthy heiress in an entertainment-industry novel. “Cannon fodder” obviously wasn't a good role. She had planned to quit the industry as fast as possible and avoid the face-slapping plot where she served as a foil. Unexpectedly, the System she was bound to told her that this body had very little life left. She could only survive by becoming a hugely popular celebrity. ...Well, fine. Being alive is good enough. Wait, what was her character setting? A wealthy heiress? After checking her assets, Xu Lingyi decided to go big. Becoming famous? Easy. During the film and television industry's winter, other celebrities pulled strings, called in favors, and used their own money to force their way into productions, scrambling for scenes and earning public scorn. Xu Lingyi simply threw money at the problem, funding customized productions outright. Top-tier crews attracted actors who fought to get cast, and the projects became hits before they even aired. As variety shows grew popular, other celebrities competed in secret and resorted to all kinds of tricks, desperate to make a splash, create a viral moment, and become overnight sensations. Xu Lingyi asked netizens for ideas. With the power of money, she could invite any big name and bring any concept to life. Her dream-fulfillment variety shows made a powerful splash and swept the trending charts. As for the budget? The billionaire Xu family said that anything under ten billion was pocket change. As long as their darling Lingyi was happy, that was all that mattered. If capital ruled the entertainment industry, Xu Lingyi would fight fire with fire and defeat capital with capital. At first, Xu Lingyi only wanted to become famous and extend her life. But before she knew it, she seemed to have set the entertainment industry straight. With her at the helm: Hidden gems regained their shine, and talented artists who had been overlooked finally reached their audiences. The aloof “stars” came down from their pedestals and actively engaged with their fans. High-quality productions drove the industry to compete and improve, and Xu Lingyi forcefully cleaned up the entertainment scene. In an online poll asking who the biggest star of the year was, Xu Lingyi's votes left everyone else in the dust, more than doubling the runner-up's total. Netizens were moved to tears. “It's been a long time coming. We finally get something good.” “The entertainment industry can't do without Xu Lingyi. President Xu, you're my god!” (Drops to one knee.jpg) Reader's guide: 1.
