Xie Zhen is a despised, obnoxious villain in a novel.
He doesn't want to be that way, so he fights the plot. He fails. He keeps fighting, and keeps failing. In the end, he chooses to die.
Just when Xie Zhen thinks he's finally free, he suddenly opens his eyes and discovers...
He's come back to life!
The good news is that he transmigrated, leaving that disgusting novel behind. The bad news is that the original owner of his body was also a nobody in the entertainment industry. To earn money and put food on the table, he still has to make a living in show business.
But with a second chance, Xie Zhen decides he won't keep holding himself back. He's going to go completely wild in the entertainment industry!
Rival actor: I'm really sorry I made you reshoot so many times. I just wanted to make some parts look better.
Xie Zhen: Actually, from the moment you bought your way into this production, there was no way this script was ever going to turn out well.
Variety show star: Oh, I wish I were as good-looking as you. Then I wouldn't have to work so hard.
Xie Zhen: Thanks, but your ass works harder than you do.
Investor: If you're willing...
Xie Zhen: If you won't let go of me, I happen to know a little martial arts.
Xie Zhen: You only live once. Today, I'm going to find out what all of you really are.
By the time he finally got all the craziness out of his system and came to his senses, he was ready to quit the industry. Then he realized he seemed to have become a superstar.
Xie Zhen looked at He Zhaoci, who was glued to his side. "Was this your doing?"
He Zhaoci: "Darling, don't you like it?"
He Zhaoci, the young master of the He family, met Xie Zhen while he was on one of his rampages. Xie Zhen was pinning a man who had been harassing someone to the ground and beating him up. He Zhaoci nearly got hit by a stray swing of the stick.
"Are you all right?"
He Zhaoci stared for two seconds at that gorgeous, blood-spattered face. "I... uh, I'm hurt! I'm hurt!"
Xie Zhen: ...Do you want a beating too?
He Zhaoci: If you really want to hit me, I wouldn't mind.
