[Coming soon: After My Best Friends Got the Scripts of Powerful Big Shots]
Zou Yun can understand nonhuman creatures. She transmigrates into a novel about the entertainment industry as a disposable side character.
The entire internet hates her and thinks she's awful, plagued by scandals, cowardly, and useless.
Later...
On a variety show, the guests have to get up close and personal with monkeys.
These monkeys are ill-tempered, fond of robbing and beating people. They torment the guests until they're all in tears, fleeing with their heads covered.
But Zou Yun, all by herself, earns every monkey's utmost respect and saves the entire group of guests.
The audience: ?!!
Zou Yun is incredible!
Zou Yun: It's nothing. I just had a friendly chat with the Monkey King.
The Monkey King: If I don't do what she says, I'll lose my throne. :)
On a livestream, the participants are asked to play detectives and identify the culprit in a game.
The old locust tree, old rosebush, and old tortoise nearby point Zou Yun in the right direction:
"The clues about the culprit are right here!"
The audience watches Zou Yun find one "wrong" clue after another, laughing at and mocking her.
But who knew that the clues she collected would help her catch the culprit behind a real murder case that had gone unsolved for twenty years?
The authorities step in and arrest the real culprit.
Ms. Zou, a helpful citizen, receives a commendation banner and a cash reward.
The whole internet is stunned: Holy crap!!!
The whole internet: Zou Yun is incredible!
In real life, despite having no hit works to her name, Zou Yun somehow gets an invitation to appear on a top variety show, a role in a film by a superstar director, and an endorsement deal for a luxury brand.
Why?
Zou Yun: I cured the octopus raised by the variety show's investor. It had depression.
Zou Yun: The superstar director's pet lizard told me what was bothering its owner, and I sorted it out.
Zou Yun: The company's secret was told to me by the poplar tree planted outside the brand's office.
Netizens who don't know what's going on are unhappy: Zou Yun is just a resource-backed celebrity!
But...
Zou Yun delivers one viral moment after another on the variety show, gives a phenomenal performance in the director's film, and her endorsement does better than any before it...
Netizens: Anyone who called Zou Yun a resource-backed celebrity looks like an idiot.
Netizens: Whatever, let's be her fans!
*
Zou Yun becomes a sensation, with fans from all walks of life.
It's not just humans who love her. Plants and animals are on her fan list, too.
Humans cheer her on, while plants bloom fresh and bright for her.
Animals circle around her LED billboard and proudly tell their companions:
"See that? That's Zou Yun, one of the biggest stars among humans. She's my idol!"

- Blurb for the upcoming novel After My Best Friends Got the Scripts of Powerful Big Shots
-
Jian Yi transmigrates into a book as a professional villain, a disposable character whose job is to oppose the protagonists.
Protagonist One: A top-tier star who's famous everywhere.
If she crosses her, her rabid fans will tear her to pieces.
Protagonist Two: A fake heiress who seems like a fraud but is actually a billionaire.
If she crosses her, the other woman's immense wealth will take care of her.
Protagonist Three: A poor, delicate flower loved by a domineering CEO.
If she crosses her, the CEO who dotes on the girl will toss her into international waters as fish food.
The System assigns Jian Yi her mission: Spread rumors to slander Top Protagonist One, scheme to frame Fake Heiress Protagonist Two, and insult Delicate Flower Protagonist Three.
Jian Yi: ...
Jian Yi smiles.jpg: How many lives do you think I have?
But after being forced to follow the plot and getting close to the protagonists, Jian Yi realizes...
Protagonist One, Protagonist Two, Protagonist Three...
Aren't they the best friends she'd been so close to in her previous life that they could practically share a pair of pants?
*
The three protagonists who transmigrated into books discover that their dear Jian Yi from their past life has also come along.
But Jian Yi has it much worse than they do. She starts with no money, no fame, and no one to rely on. On top of that, she's been handed a disposable character's script, and the System is forcing her to follow the plot.
The protagonists are furious: We'll protect our precious Jian Yi ourselves!
-
The top-tier star, who wants to stick close to Jian Yi every day: Please, come with me to my next variety show.
Jian Yi: No. I don't want to gain a few million more followers.
People recognize me even when I walk down the street. It seriously gets in the way of my peaceful life as an ordinary person.
Top-tier star: If you don't come, don't blame me if I get busy with work and forget all about you.
Jian Yi: ... You mention me on Weibo every other day on average, and bring up my name in four out of five interviews. I'd sooner believe I'm a catfish destined to save the world than believe you'd forget me once you got busy.
-
The fake heiress, who is really a super-rich tycoon: I bought you a new place to live and a car.
Jian Yi: I'm supposed to be the villain who targets you in the story. This doesn't seem right.
Fake heiress: Don't get the wrong idea. This isn't a friendly gift. It's just a way to humiliate you financially.
Jian Yi: Oh... So buying me three islands overseas and ten private jets, hiring staff to go with them, and having them line up in front of me is your way of humiliating me.
-
The delicate flower, who also has a System: My System's permissions have been upgraded!
Jian Yi: Great! What do you want to do now that your permissions are upgraded?
Delicate flower: I want my System to destroy yours. Your System is so annoying, and it doesn't take care of you at all.
Jian Yi: Oh?
Jian Yi's System: ?
*
Later, the System looks at disposable character Jian Yi, who should have been written out, but instead has become famous, gained countless fans, succeeded in her career, and made a fortune. It falls into deep thought.
Jian Yi's response: Can't be helped. My best friends love me too much.

Theme: All things have a spirit
Do you have a flight to catch? The back is fully opened to 10 times speed
This is considered a bad ending... It was obviously well written before... What the hell is the ending... There is no need to omit it like this...
So sudden? Why did it end all of a sudden like fast forwarding? . It's too hasty
Woohoo, wow, it's gone too quickly. Is there any extra episode where the relationship is revealed? (Twist)
The plot of the copywriter's murderer was just brushed off like this?
Turns out I'm not the only one who thinks this last one looks like an outline. The whole thing looks like fast forwarding at 2x speed
The taste of flesh and blood? But after twenty years, there are only bones left.
Many authors in Jinjiang failed because others spent money on them. Since they have failed, they just need to pay back the money.
? Did it end so suddenly?
And I thought that the reality interspersed before was some kind of foreshadowing... This is really too sloppy.
