Tang Ning never expected to transmigrate into an entertainment-industry novel as one of those insignificant bit players who are only mentioned in passing to show how deeply the male and female leads love each other. And not just any bit player, but the kind who can never make it big no matter how hard she tries.
Since that was the case, Tang Ning planned to leave showbiz as soon as her contract expired. She threw herself into acting and took part in variety shows without a fuss.
Her earnest attitude gradually earned her praise from industry directors and senior actors, and her acting even landed her on the trending list a few times.
But what got her trending more often was the erratic presence that came with her barely-there status. For example:
When paparazzi were filming huge scandals involving other celebrities, they never noticed Tang Ning had wandered into the shot, despite her negligible presence. Yet she trended right alongside the scandal. When she joined in or watched people do good deeds, she could chat and laugh with the passersby around her without anyone realizing she was a celebrity, only to trend again after the related news reports came out. She could even go grocery shopping at a market, get caught by a TV station doing a street interview, and trend once more as "Ms. Tang, an ordinary citizen."
Her presence was especially erratic on variety shows. While all the guests schemed against one another to get a few more close-up shots, the overlooked Tang Ning walked dogs and teased chickens at the edge of the frame, winning over a huge audience. When the guests shed tears over so-called heartfelt moments, Tang Ning, lingering at the margins, would keep wandering into other people's shots and milling about, winning the audience's affection once more and trending again and again.
Viewers: ...So having no presence is the greatest presence of all?
Tang Ning, whose presence was so erratic, unexpectedly became famous.
She was clearly a nobody, yet she was always trending.
Eventually, whenever people mentioned Tang Ning, they would say her acting was impossible to look away from, but she was nowhere to be found in everyday life. Her presence was a complete mystery, and she was adorably airheaded, too.
Tang Ning: Huh??? Adorably airheaded???
PS: No real-life basis. A lighthearted story.
Theme: Even an unknown can be the heroine. Everyone is the star of their own life's stage.
... How can anyone who can work in the entertainment industry be so stupid? Even if there is such a guess, he will not say it directly to offend people. Since the guess is not based on strength but background, it means that the background is very big. Is it enough to make an enemy for yourself? Still using such a straightforward (stupid) method... It's so divisive
The conflict in this chapter doesn't feel very smooth. Weird pinch
Brother, if you don't handle your agent's affairs well, I think you are a little unsuitable.
Ah ah ah ah Ning Ning is so good
It's quite interesting to watch, but I feel that the progress is too fast, even a little bit rushed. Although I don't know what the entertainment industry is like, the heroine's rise to the top is probably too fast. If it could be more detailed, this article would be better.
Nice! When will the new article be published?
"Earth" is a big thorn in the side of the author~
Finish spreading flowers No extras?
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Is Serious aware of his own thoughts?
