Chapter 1
Internal Entertainment Sister-in-law System
Imperial Capital Airport.
Ling Suisui was waiting for her luggage in front of the carousel, and there were people crowded around her. Excited fans raised their mobile phones and cameras, and the shutter sounds kept ringing.
These fans who came to pick us up at the airport were really enthusiastic.
Ling Suisui subconsciously reached out to take the pen and photo handed to him by others. When their eyes met, the other person's eyes were full of confusion.
Ah, I almost forgot, she died accidentally in the original world.
After transmigrating into the book, she was no longer the most popular female star in the entertainment industry, but just an ordinary student who had just been admitted to the Didu Film Academy.
These fans were not there to pick her up, but to pick up Xiang Yanchu, who was on the same flight as her and is now a member of a popular girl group.
She also got admitted to the Performance Department of the Imperial Capital Film Academy, and was Ling Sui's classmate.
"...I'll pass it to you."
Ling Suisui added calmly, and the other person's expression instantly turned into gratitude.
She also asked quietly: "Are you new to Wanjie? I don't think I've seen your photo on Weibo before."
Wanjie Media is the company where Xiang Yanchu works. When it comes to idol operations, Wanjie is considered a leader in the domestic entertainment industry.
"No." Ling Suisui helped her pass the photo to Xiang Yanchu and explained, "I'm just waiting for my luggage."
Oh, I see.
This fan has been chasing stars for years and has seen at least three-digit stars at the airport. Even though Ling Sui was wearing a mask, one could tell that her eyes were sharp and her temperament was different from the ordinary people next to her.
Are you really not an artist? Fans felt a little sorry when they saw Ling Suisui leaving with her suitcase.
If she debuted in the domestic entertainment industry, she might have a chance to become a huge hit.
——Ling Suisui, who was placed with high hopes, was not so optimistic at the moment.
She dragged her suitcase through the admission procedures and used her campus card to open the dormitory door, only to find an empty room.
Very good, she is the first student to come to Dormitory 404. What an auspicious dormitory name.
Ling Suisui chose the bed on the right side of the balcony. He didn't rush to make the bed or pack his luggage. Instead, he sat in a chair and stared blankly.
Although she has accepted the reality, she still can't help feeling melancholy.
She was a glamorous female star yesterday, but an accident turned her into an ordinary person. She has to start all over again. Anyone would have a mental breakdown.
The most speechless thing is that she is also bound to a "domestic entertainment sister-in-law system".
When Ling Sui first learned the name of this system, he almost fainted.
What sister-in-law? Don’t talk nonsense, she is not, she doesn’t have it, don’t get involved with single female artists! Men, stay away!
But the system said that she had died in her original world, and it was the Space-Time Administration that gave her another chance to live.
Therefore, she automatically became an employee of the Time Management Bureau, that is, the system host.
According to the regulations of the Bureau, new employees had to start as supporting roles and cannon fodder, but the situation of "Ling Suisui" was a bit special.
"Ling Suisui" is the protagonist, but the employee with a punctured tire resigns and runs away, so the Time Management Bureau can only let Ling Suisui take over. Fortunately, she was an actor in her original world, so coming here was a suitable profession for her.
Ling Sui naturally had no objection to being able to live one more life. As for being a sister-in-law...
Ling Sui was busy receiving memories yesterday and had to catch a flight early this morning, so he had no time to pay attention to the system.
Now she had some free time and was ready to press the blocking button on the system forever.
Although it cannot be untied, you can pretend it does not exist.
Perhaps the system noticed her intention, so it quickly jumped out and said:
[Host, don't forget your goal. You want to become a good sister-in-law that fans of male celebrities in the entertainment industry will compete for. 】
Ling Sui thought, the task of the Time Management Bureau was not mandatory anyway, so whoever wanted to be the sister-in-law could be it, she was not interested.
System: [The most perfect sister-in-law in the domestic entertainment industry, who can enjoy the ultimate love of the male protagonist, and there is also a popular Shura field waiting for you to open! 】
Ling Suisui felt nothing in his heart, and even felt like laughing.
What's the use of her having these? If a female star forms a real-life CP, she will only become a tool for Su. She doesn't even have time to hide, how can she take the initiative to send it? Are you crazy?
Just as she was about to press the permanent blocking button, the system finally said something useful:
[We have applied for a novice gift package for you, which includes 100 points and "acting skills improvement buff". You can receive it after activating all functions of the system! 】
Um? It says acting skills improved?
In gaming terms, a buff is usually a magical enhancement that takes effect immediately and has a limited validity period. Ling Sui could understand things like strength enhancement, speed enhancement, etc., but how could one use cheats when it came to performance?
Ling Suisui was skeptical about its effectiveness, but was curious about how it worked.
If this is the way to talk, then this system is still useful.
Ling Suisui didn't click to block the message, but instead pressed the mute button. Anyway, the system is in a certain area of her brain, and she just needs to read the text reminders.
On the system's main page, only the [Personal Center] and [Settings] sections are lit, while the remaining [System Mall] and [Internal Space] are gray.
Ling Suisui clicked into [Personal Center], which contained her detailed information.
[Name: Ling Suisui]
[Age: 17]
[Birthday: December 19]
[Height: 168cm]
[Weight: 45kg]
…
The data that lights up is her personal information, while sub-sections such as [Sign-in], [Achievements], and [Favorability List] are all gray.
She could see her newbie gift pack, but couldn’t open it, as it said the relevant feature was not activated.
Ling Suisui asked: [How to activate? 】
System: [As long as the host unlocks the favorability of any captureable target, all functions of the system can be activated! 】
The target that can be pursued is actually the alternative candidate for the male protagonist.
This novel is an open world, and who will become the final "male protagonist" depends entirely on Ling Sui's choice.
It sounds like she is in control.
——But this thing is called the Sister-in-law System, and even the name is based on the premise that there must be a male protagonist first. It is really hard for Ling Sui to believe that it will truly plan for her.
Moreover, she didn't know the specific list of possible targets.
System: [Although according to the regulations of the Time Management Bureau, the host on duty cannot obtain plot information, the system can provide you with a novice tip. 】
Ling Suisui thought, with both the gift package and the reminder, it seemed that the system really wanted to keep her.
——That’s true. After all, the previous host of the sister-in-law system has already run away.
Although this host can't escape, if she completely gives up and doesn't do the task, the system's performance will be ruined QAQ
System: [The person closest to you who can be conquered is [Chen Yuening], a freshman in the Performance Department of the Imperial Film Academy and the male lead of the online drama "The Heartbeat". 】
Chen Yuening?
Ling Suisui searched his memory and found relevant information about him.
"Pian Hui Xin Dong" was broadcast at the beginning of this year, with an average of more than 20 million views per episode, making it a hit, which is considered a good result among current idol dramas.
This drama brought a lot of traffic to the male lead Chen Yuening. In addition, he was a child star and has a certain degree of national popularity. Now he has been admitted to the Performance Department of the Imperial Capital Film Academy. His star path is obviously bright.
System: [As long as [Chen Yuening] gets to know the host and gains his initial favorability, you can officially activate the system! 】
Out of caution, Ling Sui asked: [What if the favorability is negative? 】
system:……
System: [Host, there is no negative value for favorability. 0 is already the lowest. As long as the other person doesn't hate you, the chances are basically above 50. 】
Ling Suisui understood. It seems that 0 means extremely annoying, and 50 means a neutral stranger level.
It’s not difficult to get to know Chen Yuening.
You will encounter it when school officially starts. Ling Suisui didn't need to get too close to him, just let him know his name.
For students in this major, at least they should have a minimum score of 60.
In order to get the "acting ability improvement buff" in the gift package, Ling Suisui decided to activate the system function first. If the product is not what she said, or if it is false advertising, she can just block the system, and it won't cause any loss to her.
However, she heard the system say: [After the host unlocks [Chen Yuening]'s favorability, he can use the "acting skills improvement buff" on him. 】
Ling Suisui:?
What the hell is this? Who are you giving it to? Are the props in her novice gift pack for others to use? !
Is this reasonable? Which cheater has a cheat like yours?
Ling Suisui asked from the bottom of his heart: [Why should I give it to him? 】
System: [This will increase his favorability towards you, speed up the progress of the strategy, and help the host become a sister-in-law as soon as possible. 】
Ling Suisui: ...
Haha, she knew it.
No wonder the previous host had to run away. It turns out that this thing is only bound to the female protagonist, and its essence is still the golden finger of the "male protagonist".
No, it’s even better than being directly tied to the “male protagonist”. Hosts bound to other systems still have to complete tasks, while the "male protagonist" here just sits back and enjoys the benefits, waiting for her to deliver them to him.
You only need to gain a little favorability to make the "heroine" serve you wholeheartedly and pay you madly for her. How can this not be a sweet and cute story with the male protagonist?
Ling Suisui did not respond for a moment, the system continued:
[Host, this year the Imperial Capital Film Academy will add an experimental class to the Performance Department, and the entrance exam will be held in seven days. At this time, if you use the "acting improvement buff" to help Chen Yuening achieve good results, it will definitely greatly increase his favorability towards you. 】
Experimental class?
Ling Sui once again retracted her intention to block the system. She had not heard of this.
She asked her counselor doubtfully, and the counselor replied that the department was still discussing the matter and the class division plan had not been finalized, so no announcement had been made, and asked her not to worry.
——The fact that the counselor answered her like this means that this matter is probably settled, and many people must have asked about it.
Ling Sui couldn't help but sigh. Her family only had a little money, which was enough to support her as an art student, but it had nothing to do with the entertainment industry.
In other words, she has no resources or connections in this circle. If the system hadn't revealed it in advance, she would have been at the bottom of the information receiving hierarchy in the film academy.
Even before she entered the film and television industry, she already felt the familiar class barriers.
“It’s not easy to get along…” Ling Sui sighed.
The system comforted her: [It's okay, host. As long as you help [Chen Yuening] get into the experimental class, he will definitely remember your kindness. 】
Ling Suisui looked indifferent, so I really had to thank him.
System: [Students who enter the experimental class will receive focused training and more resources from the Film Academy. Moreover, Tang Bing will return to the Department of Performance to teach this year, and will only teach the experimental class. 】
[She is currently preparing a film and television drama with an urban reality theme, and her partner company is Qinghe Film and Television. The higher the ranking that the host helps [Chen Yuening] get in the entrance exam, the greater the chance that he will gain Tang Bing's favor and be included in the casting list for the new project. 】
Even though Ling Suisui had just arrived in this world, information about Tang Bing automatically popped up in her memory.
A national first-class actor, winner of multiple Best Actress and Best Actress awards, and a distinguished professor at the Film Academy.
The works in which she starred have accompanied two generations in their growth, and her representative works are still the electronic pickles of many people.
Ling Suisui searched Qinghe Film and Television on the Internet and found that the strength of this company should not be underestimated.
It has performed well in the field of realistic themes, and has produced seven high-quality and high-rated dramas in just five years. Ling Sui checked its equity structure and found that its shareholders included Tang Bing Studio, as well as leading domestic video platforms such as Aoqi and Tiantian.
Ling Suisui analyzed that this was probably a conspiracy led by Tang Bing. If she had in-depth cooperation with the Film Academy, it would make sense that she would cast from the experimental class of the acting department.
Think about it, this project not only has Tang Bing's national popularity, but also Qinghe Film and Television's professional level that can be displayed in its comfort zone, and what's more - Tang Bing only needs a Magnolia Best Actress award to complete the mainland TV Queen Grand Slam.
If it can be used to win awards, then it must be a good thing that they have carefully polished.
Ling Suisui rested his chin on his hand and said, "I understand. It is really important to get good grades in the entrance exam. It would be best if I could get first place."
System: [Yes, host, please actively help [Chen Yuening]! 】
Ling Suisui smiled. Want her to help others get first place? How is that possible.
She can accept defeat after fair competition and admit that she still has room for improvement; but if she is asked to help others to get ahead and watch them shine while she remains unknown, that would be worse than killing her.
Ling Sui, a tough, iron-blooded top cancer patient who has been strong all his life, would never do such a thing.
Whether it was the first place in the entrance exam or the opportunity to join Tang Bing's crew...
Ling Sui just wanted to hold these things in his own hands.
The author has something to say:
Additional note: The system bug is part of the plot setting, not a problem with the author's logic, and the main plot of this article is not to follow the system's wishes to conquer the male protagonist.
*Semi-fictional entertainment industry, using some real-life settings, which will be modified and adjusted according to the needs of the plot.
*All characters have no prototypes, please do not substitute them for three-dimensional stars, thank you.
