Shen Xiaoxian transmigrates into an entertainment-industry novel as a tone-deaf, terrible actor, pretty-boy nobody. When he arrives, the original owner has just made the trending blacklists everywhere after a notorious lip-syncing incident, and is right at the turning point of becoming a vicious cannon-fodder villain.
Shen Xiaoxian thinks it over and suddenly sees the bright side: Great! I've become financially free the moment I transmigrated. Why bother with showbiz? Take the money and leave. What's not to love...
But on his first day, his furious manager hunts him down: “This is your last chance. It's a new rap competition show. I begged everyone under the sun to get you in...”
Shen Xiaoxian is horrified: “Absolutely not!”
Manager: “I mean, get you in to audition.”
Shen Xiaoxian breathes a sigh of relief. “That works.”

Before transmigrating, Shen Xiaoxian was an essayist who liked to show off his writing. He was good with flowery words, but he knew nothing about flow or record labels. Surely he could easily botch the show's audition.
But after he finishes performing a new song about the confusion women face when starting their careers, the whole room falls silent.
The director, who's especially good at reading people, frowns as he looks over the lyrics. Blowing his top, he demands, “Shen Xiaoxian, tell me who wrote these lyrics for you!”
What does that mean? Is he accusing him of plagiarism? Shen Xiaoxian, a die-hard original songwriter, hardens his expression. “I wrote it yesterday. So what?”

That day, nobody realizes that this technique-worshipping rap scene has not only gained a rapper who's a pretty boy with no technical skill, but also its most unforgiving father when it comes to content.

Yu Jiayu, a grand-slam award-winning actor, has been feeling a little troubled lately.
He made his debut at eight, and his first movie at ten made him a breakout star playing a seemingly sweet but secretly sinister young villain. Over the years, he's played every challenging role imaginable, from an innocent boy to a very old man. Flowers, applause, and trophies have become boring. Nothing that excites other people can stir his interest anymore.
His manager begs him through tears to make a comeback. After silently drumming his pale fingers on a thick proposal for a long time, Actor Yu finally picks the rap competition show that looks the most boring and agrees to appear as a guest judge from another field.
He thinks he's just getting back at his manager for pestering him too much. But when a fair-faced young man with red lips and a clean, even modest, style steps onto the stage, Actor Yu suddenly can't look away.
Shen Xiaoxian seems cheerful and innocent, but his songs are full of the joys and sorrows of human life. Beneath his deliberately plain style, you can feel his observant, compassionate view of every side of life.
The young man performing onstage glances over by chance, his bright eyes like the moon. A soft feather seems to stroke Actor Yu's hardened heart, and in an instant it melts into a pool of spring water.

During the interview, Yu Jiayu abandons his usual aloofness and gazes passionately into the camera: “His songs showed me a side of myself I had never noticed before. I'm curious what someone who can write lyrics like that is like in everyday life...”
A staff member looks up, expressionless. “You're the thirty-fourth guest to say that.”
Yu Jiayu chokes. “???”

tips:
The bottom is laid-back but doesn't give up. He doesn't want to, but somehow reaches the peak of life.
vs
The top is shameless at heart and aloof on the outside, but his heart only goes pit-a-pat for his wife. The moment he sees his wife, he gets down on his knees.
I changed the protagonist's profession~~ Still satisfying and sweet.

Phew! Welcome back!! It turns out to be the entertainment industry. I thought I had to write about the cows and horses. After everything the cows and horses go through, it becomes more and more reasonable (bu). Looking forward to the story——
