Back to the Interstellar Era to Become a Director

[Next novel: "Background Character N at the Noble Academy"] Blurb Xiang Xiang, a native of the interstellar world, accidentally transmigrated through various eras and then came back. Now she was penniless, living in a ramshackle home. Having survived by picking through garbage since childhood, Xiang Xiang fell silent. She lived in a peaceful, highly advanced world, but on an impoverished and backward garbage planet. Forget a leisurely retirement, even surviving was a struggle. By chance, Xiang Xiang saw a short-drama contest. The entry with the most votes would win 10,000 star coins! Xiang Xiang was poor and sorely tempted. She acted on that temptation, dusted off her directing skills, and began making a name for herself in interstellar film and television. Xiang Xiang’s dramas became hits, and she didn’t stop at television. She also branched out into related industries. Everyone from every species clamored for XX-brand potato chips. Her clothing designs hit record sales on launch day. She even opened a fully immersive virtual zoo, and every day the ticket sales made her hands ache from counting the money. Her competitors resented her, saying she was neglecting her real work, wasting her time on flashy gimmicks instead of figuring out how to make better dramas. The netizens fired back. They liked potato chips, beautiful clothes, and spending money to see animals that had gone extinct across the stars! Besides, the viewership for Xiang Xiang’s dramas was higher than the combined numbers for all the dramas made by those people who resented her. Years later, director Xiang Xiang looked at the balance displayed on her brain-computer and smiled with satisfaction. That’s enough. I can retire now. Her many fans: Retire from what?! Have you finished the TV series? Is there a new XX-brand snack? Have you designed more pretty clothes? Are there any new animals at the zoo? "Background Character N at the Noble Academy" Jian Cheng is Background Character N in a certain Mary Sue novel, a witness to the many romances between the hero and heroine, and the supporting male and female characters. Her entire description in the book is just one short sentence: “Huh, was she actually pretending to be a boy?” Her classmates say this because she dies in a car accident at a young age. When the famous Haicheng businessman Jian Yulin faints in public upon hearing that his daughter has died, Jian Yulin trends all day. Although Jian Cheng is Background Character N, she isn’t some poor, pitiful student. Her father is a shrewd capitalist, and her mother is a noblewoman from a distinguished family, famous in legal circles. Jian Cheng arrives after the car accident, changes her original fate of dying, and awakens to the fact that she is Background Character N. Jian Cheng thinks. Jian Cheng falls silent. Jian Cheng suddenly understands. She glances at the brat openly throwing dirt on her, lets out an inscrutable laugh, then snatches the little dirt pot from his arms and leisurely dumps the dirt all over her nephew. “Since you like playing with it, here, is that enough? If it isn’t, I’ll go dig up some more downstairs. It’s all yours, all yours.” As she speaks, Jian Cheng sets the dirt pot on the head of her second uncle’s son and says with a smile, “The pot’s stuck in cow dung. Looks great.” Jian Cheng looks at the third male lead, who inexplicably shouts by her desk that they’ll meet on the rooftop after school, saying incomprehensible things like, “You messed with my brother.” She stands up and, in front of everyone, unexpectedly smacks the boy on the head with her right hand. “What are you yelling about? Do you think he even admits you’re his brother? Got nothing better to do than play house? Brother this, brother that. Stop wasting my study time and get lost.” The second male lead can’t watch any longer and pulls the still-dazed third male lead back. “That’s enough.” Then he smiles at Jian Cheng. “All right, Jian Cheng. Don’t be so hard on him. He’s just a little socially inept.” Jian Cheng glances at him. “You can get lost too.” The male lead: “You...” Jian Cheng: “All of you, get lost.” [Have you noticed that Jian Cheng from Class One has been acting a little different lately?] [!! I have! How did I never notice how handsome she is?] [She’s handsome, but her personality and temper are... kind of weird... weirdly appealing!! Hehe~] Reader’s guide * Updated daily at 9 p.m. * The early chapters mainly focus on making dramas and integrating into everyday life. The heroine’s background will gradually be revealed, and later there will be a lengthy arc focused on her past. * Some comments say that making the heroine a director after returning from quick transmigration is less interesting than having her simply transmigrate. Being a director is both her livelihood and her passion. There’s a reason for the quick transmigration, which will be explained later. * Many original details in this story. I’m bad at writing blurbs. * More to come... Theme: Revive the times and promote culture
