[Coming next: I’m Working Hard to Go Bankrupt Again Today [Entertainment Industry] and Beast Taming, But I’m a Beast. Please add them to your collection~]
I, Jian Xun, am one of the most stunning faces in the entertainment industry.
I spent my entire career proving that “I’m not just handsome, I can act, too.”
I made a bunch of artsy films that nobody understood and tried my hardest to make myself look ugly. At last, after winning every major Best Actor award, I burst into tears.
Those ugly-making days were no way for a person to live.
The morning after I won the award, I discovered I had been reborn.
I was back in the year I first entered the entertainment industry.
Well, there went all my progress. Back to square one.
Still, at least I had my face.
As long as I had my face, I could conquer the world!
This time, I was ready to make a comeback. I would never again sacrifice my stunning looks for a trophy.
So I decided: I’d only star in idol dramas!
-
And so the idol-drama market gained a monster who “used his good looks to get away with murder.”
He relied on his stunning face to make the ugly sons of the rich look like nothing at all.
Before Jian Xun came along, the idol-drama market was...
Wasn’t it just a matter of filming whatever, looking handsome, then marketing the couples’ chemistry to fleece the fans?
Why was someone actually treating idol dramas like serious scripts to study? Wasn’t it enough to just cash in on the fans?
The thing was, this guy wasn’t just stunning. He was also insanely competitive, and his acting was incredible!
If you can act that well, why make idol dramas? Why not take that competitive streak to the film industry?
That’s cheating!
Actors from modern, period, and xianxia idol dramas all cried out, “Please go torment someone else!”
Seeing how hard the other actors worked to memorize their lines and compete over their looks, Jian Xun couldn’t help sighing:
Even the idol-drama scene is tough to make it in...
Perhaps...
His gaze slowly shifted toward popcorn movies.
A meaningful smile appeared on his face.
Film actors: “Don’t come over here!”
[Synopsis saved in screenshot on 2025/4/6]
* The story doesn’t start with a rapid-fire face-slapping spree. The plot and characters need time to unfold.
* No one-sided crushes, secret admirers, or ambiguous relationships. No real-life inspirations [No speculation about inspirations or mentioning them in comments, please!!!]
* The protagonist is all about his career, a bit of a goofball, and doesn’t play by the rules. In his eyes, he’s the most handsome person in the universe.
* There will be lots of idol dramas, and some plots from old-school idol dramas may appear, but! There are! No! Real-life inspirations!
* Lots of stories within the story and lots of comments.
* Please don’t give me writing advice. Send critiques if you like, or leave if you want.
Thanks for stopping by.

Next novel: I’m Working Hard to Go Bankrupt Again Today [Entertainment Industry]
“So you’re saying I won’t die unless I spend all the money in my account?”
After trying all sorts of methods and finding that the System had been telling the truth, Jian Ning frowned.
But then he thought about it: making money isn’t easy, but is spending it really that hard?
[Host, you must use reasonable and legal methods. Deliberately manipulating the stock market and getting involved in the watch industry are forbidden.]
The System had shut down those options. Jian Ning pondered.
But he soon came up with a solution:
The entertainment industry.
Apart from the forbidden options, the entertainment industry was also a great place to spend money.
It burned money like paper, and investment returns depended on superstition.
All he had to do was sign a bunch of washed-up actors with no potential, invest in expensive film and TV productions that nobody would watch, and pour money into acquiring obscure copyrights for adaptations...
His company could focus on training performers, too. Every single one of them would go to class, with top teachers and all sorts of perks arranged for them!
In short, they could spend money however they pleased.
At this rate, it would be impossible not to lose money.
Then he could achieve his goal.
But why had nobody told him that everything could backfire?
The washed-up actors with no potential found new work and reached new career heights?
The big-budget productions were praised as “meticulously crafted, the last honest works in the industry”?
Even the adaptations of obscure copyrights he’d spent a fortune on were praised by fans, and fan-driven word of mouth kept winning them award after award?
And Jian Ning’s company had become known as a “heavenly company”...
Jian Ning fell silent.
So when exactly was he going to go bankrupt!!!

I can't help it. The words in that rhythmic post are so inflammatory. I don't explicitly question or criticize it, but it just gives people a weird feeling [covering face and crying]

Really. I was also very entangled before winning the award, because if I didn't win the award, I wouldn't feel like a cool hero. But it would feel inappropriate to win the award. After all, there would definitely be a lot of controversy if there were many respected seniors on the scene. But the author wrote it this way, and I read it this way, and I think it's very good.
