Tycoon Investor, Earning Ten Million a Day [Entertainment Industry]

[I’m so, so sorry. Things suddenly got very busy in my real life, and I haven’t had time to write properly. Looking back, I realized my writing has gotten really bad. I’ve been writing on and off this whole time, but I’m never satisfied. I’ve already scrapped nearly 60,000 words for this book, and the more I write, the less I feel like I know what I’m doing. I open the document every day feeling lost, unable to tell whether anything is good or bad. It all seems equally awful, and I’m too afraid to post what I’ve written. The pressure has become so great that lately my emotions have started to fall apart too. Keeping up this pace and producing this kind of content feels incredibly irresponsible, so after careful consideration, I’ve decided to make this book free to read. I won’t start a new story until I’ve gotten my life and mental and physical health in order. I’m truly sorry.] Xia Qin, a down-on-her-luck wage slave, gets bound to a reverse-investment System. As long as she invests wisely, she can withdraw every lost cent at a one-to-one rate. Just then, a big-budget movie that had cost hundreds of millions bombed spectacularly. Xia Qin couldn’t help but envy the loss, so she plunged headfirst into the entertainment industry. Waving around piles of cash, she began her grand performance: She signed the deadweight member who’d been kicked out of a popular group. She took over a production team plagued by one disaster after another, then rewrote the script herself. She signed a pretty vase of an eighteen-tier actress whose acting was practically robotic, then brought in a renowned director to tailor a role just for her. She took charge of a variety show and brought in a bunch of has-beens to gossip and chat for four hours with zero editing… Before long, everyone in the industry had heard about the rich woman who was clueless, loaded, and loved throwing her weight around! Rival teams waited to laugh at her. Fans of competing stars raised their glasses to celebrate that their idols had dodged a bullet and escaped Xia Qin’s meddling. Then the projects aired. The romance that was supposed to drag out over forty episodes became a story where the heroine stabbed her enemy, the male lead, in the very first episode, then roamed the martial world with nothing but a sword. What a carefree, exhilarating life! The pretty-vase actress played the mastermind behind it all. With blood on the side of his shy, boyish face, he smiled at the camera with an innocent expression. His “unhinged, robotic” vibe terrified the audience. Nobody knew how to dish the dirt better than an over-the-hill top-tier star. The variety show’s ratings soared with each episode, the director’s team was flooded with calls, and viewers leaned forward, eyes shining. “Go on, don’t stop! We want to hear more!” And the iron-back everyone hated had quietly climbed to the top. His natural star power could no longer be hidden. [We’re so tired of heroines whose whole lives revolve around romance. Give us a cool-headed, clear-eyed heroine kicking ass!] [How blind are the fans of XX Group? How could you let a stage queen like that go?] [Please, let me watch two more episodes. I’ll do anything! (Twitching with anticipation)] [Anything produced by Ms. Xia is bound to be a masterpiece!!] Trending: #WhereCanIFindABackerasTalentedAndCreativeAsMsXia? Please take a look at my favorite stars, Ms. Xia! Xia Qin was baffled. She only wanted to lose money, so why had every project she invested in become a massive hit?! Years later, when the media interviewed the stars from Peeping Light Entertainment, now famous across a variety of industries, they all said they owed their success to Ms. Xia, who had discovered countless wonderful scripts and performers who should never have been overlooked: “She had such a discerning eye that, in our darkest and most hopeless days, she helped us catch a glimpse of light.” [Reader’s guide] · A wealthy, feel-good story about a heroine who succeeds at everything she does. · She tries to lose money, but the heroine becomes very rich and won’t deprive herself. · The scripts the heroine revises had already been mangled beyond recognition by the previous investors. The actors she brings in are cast in roles made for them, not taking someone else’s place. She doesn’t use her money to bully people; in fact, she saves many careers. · No real-life inspirations. The author doesn’t watch many dramas or variety shows, and writes based on research and making things up. Please don’t associate the story with real people or events. · The author isn’t in good health and doesn’t read the comments, saving her energy to focus on writing. Please don’t argue, and I hope you all enjoy your real lives! Here’s a preview of my upcoming story: Doomsday Game: The Lord Has a Max-Level Panel Blurb: Shi Wei was invited to participate in the beta test of a doomsday game. After painstakingly grinding her account to the top of the server and reaching 100% completion, she went to sleep. When she woke up, the game had actually become real! [Global catastrophe has begun!] [You have received your beta test reward and unlocked the special identity “Lord.” Upgrade your territory and lead your people to survive!] On the barren territory, countless bewildered players panicked, and the sound of crying filled the air. Shi Wei glanced at the panel she’d inherited, complete with max-level skills, and resigned herself to issuing her first command: [Group quest: Collect 10 pieces of wood] [The Lord uses the skill “Inspire” (Lv. 99, max level): Logging speed in the territory increased by 30%!] The players, who had been stumbling around like headless flies, suddenly seemed to have found someone to rely on. * The entire world was dragged into the doomsday game, where everyone struggled to survive. Players shared tips in the world chat, complaining about food shortages, slow gathering, scarce resources, and lords who squeezed them dry. The residents of Wei’s Fifty Territory scratched their heads. How could there not be enough food? Weren’t resources everywhere? And their Lord? She was obviously a powerhouse who’d led them straight to victory! * Extreme cold, scorching heat, floods, endless nights… With every disaster, fewer people survived. The residents kept causing trouble, and the lords were at their wits’ end. It wasn’t that they wanted to exploit anyone. Their territories needed resources to survive! During a famine disaster, with the food reserves running out and everyone on the verge of giving up, people sobbed and said their goodbyes in the lord channel. Shi Wei suddenly popped up: [Freshly baked pork floss buns, anyone?] During the scorching heat disaster, Shi Wei said: [Chilled watermelon juice for sale! Plenty to go around, and at a great price…] The lords: …Suddenly, I don’t want to die anymore. Boss, please help us out! QAQ! Theme: Good deeds are rewarded
