Su Mingyue, an acting student, transmigrates to the 1980s with an acting System by her side.
Her biological father is gone, her mother is preparing to remarry, and the family is so poor their pots are empty. Mother and daughter are so hungry they faint.
When Su Mingyue wakes up, she stares at the half of a rotten sweet potato in her hand, lost in thought.
Luckily, the System reminds her in time: Host can gain recognition by acting, then use her fame points to shop in the store.
With no other choice, Su Mingyue turns her hobby into a career to survive. But she has her worries, too. The entertainment industry is fiercely competitive, and she'd always planned to be a lazy fish who acted as a beauty and played a pretty face.
Wait, it's the 1980s?
The domestic film and television industry is only just getting started, and Chinese people are a rare sight on international screens.
Su Mingyue instantly springs into action.
Director, I can play this role! I can dance this dance! Give me the fight scenes! I can sing the theme song, too
As for international films, to be honest, it's not like I can't speak a foreign language...
Before this, no one could have imagined that a girl from a small village in Huaguo would stand on that highest awards podium. Her peerless beauty and extraordinary acting skills bring Eastern and Western tastes into harmony. She is the Eastern Moon, and even the stars fade beside her.
Review by Time Magazine
System: All I wanted at first was for her to act. Who knew she'd become famous at home and then quietly make it onto the international stage...
