Ruan Zhi, the exceptionally gifted first disciple of the Music Sect with unlimited prospects, is ambushed and accidentally transmigrates into a wealthy showbiz novel as a cannon-fodder male supporting character.
The original owner rigged the vote to get into a talent show, stepped on his bandmates to get ahead, acted like a block of wood, and was plagued by scandals. He used money to steal the original male lead's debut spot, treated him as a rival, and humiliated him relentlessly. He also did everything he could to sabotage the romance between the main couple. He was a standard cannon fodder: stupid and malicious.
Naturally, he meets a miserable end in the original story. His family goes bankrupt, he is disfigured and disgraced, and he ends up permanently paralyzed after an accidental car crash caused by an overdose of psychiatric medication.
Ruan Zhi's vision goes black.
But there's good news: he binds to the Becoming Your Brightest Self System. As long as he gains fame and reputation, he can exchange them for resources like acting skills and beauty points, make a triumphant return, and become a top-tier star again!
Ruan Zhi lies helpless in a hospital bed, wrapped up like a mummy. "Why not just wait until I'm buried before starting?"
System: "...Oh, right."
It seems to have forgotten to rewind the world's timeline to before the original story began. QAQ
A disastrous start, but Ruan Zhi is no ordinary person.
He quickly finds the one path he can take for now.
To become a streamer.
Who says he has to show his face on camera to gain fame and reputation?
.
Star Calendar year 2345. This is an age on the brink of collapse.
Hundreds of years ago, an accidental burst of genetic radiation killed countless people and made the human living environment unbearably harsh. Mutated plants and animals appeared one after another, but this also drove human evolution, granting people stronger bodies and superior supernatural abilities.
At the same time, however, a curse of fate came with it.
Mental illness that grew worse by the day.
The more powerful a person's abilities and the higher their place on the evolutionary ladder, the more likely they are to develop severe brain-collapse symptoms and fall into immense suffering. Their only possible endings are suicide when they can no longer bear it, or losing all reason and indiscriminately attacking friend and foe alike, becoming a high-risk threat to social stability. Once discovered, they are executed immediately.
Crime rates keep rising, conflicts grow worse, and people live in constant fear, venting their emotions without restraint as if celebrating before the apocalypse.
Until the appearance of that healing streamer.
Even a simple piano performance, a chat, or a song can calm evolved people suffering from brain-collapse symptoms. After going sleepless for days and nights in agony, they can sink into a peaceful, unconscious sleep in front of the livestream.
All of Blue Star erupts.
.
At last, Ruan Zhi has accumulated enough fame and reputation. In a medical miracle, he finally sits up in his hospital bed. The System is so excited it nearly faints. [Host, let's exchange for [Unparalleled Beauty] and [Peerless Acting Skills]! You'll definitely get back everything you've lost!]
Ruan Zhi: I seem to have those already?
He pulls away the bandages from his reconstructive surgery, revealing his original face.
The well-traveled System is stunned.
Even the most beautiful face in the shop can't compare to its Host.
Ruan Zhi strokes his chin. He already has a plan.
This place is lacking in spiritual energy and frequently struck by cosmic rays, isn't it?
He'll switch to the path of the gods and turn all that so-called fame and reputation into faith power for his own use.
Well, he can start by founding the first psychiatric healing center.
He's had his eye on those few super-S-class powerhouses with money to burn for a long time. (:3_ヽ)_
