Ji Ling had been practicing in seclusion with her master since childhood. Then, on the day she turned eighteen, her master suddenly drove her out of the mountain gate, saying she should go out and see the world.

Ji Ling faithfully followed his teachings. With a certificate she had earned called some kind of junior high school diploma in hand, she arrived in the modern world.

She ran into trouble as soon as she came down the mountain. To keep herself from ending up on the street, she had to find a job and make a living the way ordinary people did.

She cast a divination for herself. The two jobs best suited to her were joining the entertainment industry or hauling bricks at a construction site.

Ji Ling was on her way to haul bricks when someone tricked her into joining the entertainment industry. From then on, the industry welcomed its luckiest newcomer ever.

The TV series where she worked as a stunt double went viral after one fight scene.

In the film where she played a pretty face with no substance, countless viewers became fans because of her looks.

At a commercial performance, she played ten different guzheng pieces by ear, leaving the audience spellbound.

Every film and TV production she appeared in became a perennial favorite in the Chinese entertainment industry.

The entertainers who got along with her enjoyed lasting success, while one after another of those who crossed her got exposed in scandals and landed in trouble. People called her the industry's litmus test.

But with her sudden fame came an endless stream of scandals. Ji Ling paid them no mind, completely absorbed in experiencing the modern world's version of “seeing the world.” Yesterday she wolfed down ten takeout meals of barbecue and crayfish; today she was obsessed with Douyin, singing “Hey, Dao Ma, Dao Ma, Dao Ma” over and over...

Until one day, she took part in a homecoming variety show. She earnestly told the story of an abandoned orphan who had been found by an old man deep in the mountains, and how the two had relied on each other to survive. Everyone burst into tears. Even her haters felt compelled to slap themselves before bed whenever they thought about it. That is, until the cameras followed Ji Ling into the mountains she had described...

Netizens: “...That damn thing is called cultivation to immortality!”

Her master asked, “Have you seen the world now that you’ve come down the mountain?”

Ji Ling and the netizens, in unison: “We have!!!”

Coming Soon: How to Maintain a Poor Person Persona After Transmigrating into a Book as the Richest Person. Blurb:

Tang Li transmigrated into a book.

The good news: she knew the plot of the book she had entered, and she had become the richest person in the story, an heir who inherited the family business but barely appeared in the novel.

The bad news: a System had transmigrated with her.

The System told her that she was supposed to become a supporting female character in this urban inspirational novel: a fellow poor girl who pretended to be rich, serving as a foil to the female lead. But a bug had appeared in the world, and that character had disappeared. If Tang Li couldn't take her place and complete the plot without revealing her identity, the world would cease to exist, and the countless funds in her account would be wiped out. But if she completed the plot, she could inherit everything she had acquired in this world.

Tang Li: “There’s really such a good deal? Pretending to be rich is hard, but pretending to be poor is easy!”

So Tang Li bought a pile of cheap knockoffs for her wardrobe and joined the female lead's company as a fellow newcomer.

When the female lead dressed simply and modestly and demonstrated her competence, Tang Li wore all sorts of cheap online knockoffs of “haute couture” and showed off at every opportunity:

“Oh, sorry! There are so many clothes at home I can’t wear them all~”

“This bag? It’s a limited edition. There are only five in the whole world~”

“I never stay in any hotel room except the presidential suite~”

“I’m allergic to private cars that cost less than a million~”

“My family has too much money. The butler told me that unless I get an offer from another company, I’ll have to go home and inherit the family business~...”

Her coworkers smiled to her face, but sneered at her behind her back.

Then, after the story’s plot ended, everyone was stunned to see Tang Li sitting in the president’s seat at the company that had acquired theirs. Was there still time for them to latch onto her coattails?!

The female lead, who had secretly become Tang Li’s partner, quietly took back her resignation letter. What was it like to pick up a big shot and end up becoming best friends?
