During a mission, the interstellar mech unit 099 was attacked. When it woke up, it had transmigrated thousands of years back to Earth.
It had transmigrated into a "real and fake young master" novel as the real young master, a boy unloved by both his father and mother. In the end, he'd meet a tragic fate after falling for the same movie star as the fake young master, who was a lucky top-tier star.
On top of that, it was bound to a useless "Become a Superstar Starting Today" System that did nothing but nag.
Remembering its tragic ending in the original story, disgraced and burned alive with its own family, 099 decided to run away at once.
The System reached out like a character from a melodrama: No! You must become a top-tier star before the fake young master, or I'll make you self-destruct!
099: What?
099: I can't learn to sing and dance. How about playing football?
Come on, I'm a mech! My body's flesh and blood now, but I still have my mental powers!
On the pitch, it takes a second to scan everything. Perfect vision. It knows where every teammate and opponent is with its eyes closed!
Pass however it wants, shoot however it wants. It was promised 1.567 meters of passing accuracy, and not a micrometer more or less!
Besides, since mechs don't have feelings, it doesn't matter how much the coach or club tries to manipulate it!
The teammates raise their arms and shout: He's a natural midfield maestro! Even a dog could get two tap-ins before leaving!
FIFA, the International Federation of Association Football, watches the brand-new prodigy through tearful eyes: Eighteen years! We've finally got another Chinese rising star! Do you know how we've survived these eighteen years without making money off the Chinese people?
And so...
While the lucky fake young master makes cute short-video mukbangs, 099 makes its Bundesliga debut!
While the lucky fake young master plays a pretty flower vase on a talent show, 099 earns a regular starting spot at a top club!

Parents, movie star, and fake young master: Can we ride your coattails a little?

Warnings:
1. This isn't real-world football. It's a mix of fiction and reality, and every character and club is based on more than one real-life inspiration.
2. The male lead feels very mechanical at first.
3. There's a little bit of impart, but it's one-on-one.
Theme: Take an unconventional path to fame across China.
