Chapter 1 Even the owner of a small noodle shop knows that he can unintentionally display his store name for promotion!
"——Brother Jiang!"
Jiang Huai heard the director's heart-wrenching cry for help. He was lying on the ground, conscious. It seemed that someone lifted up the steel plate that was pressing on him. He also seemed to vaguely see the red and blue flashing lights of an ambulance.
His soul left his body, and Jiang Huai floated in the air, staring at himself lying in a pool of blood. He saw the emergency personnel who rushed over, touched the side of his neck, and rushed to carry him into the car for emergency treatment.
The last nurse to board the ambulance turned back to the other crew members and said:
"We will try our best, but the hope is slim, so be prepared."
In fact, he was already dead, Jiang Huai thought with some amusement, he had become a ghost, there was no need to struggle any more.
The crew members sobbed and cried together.
The rival actor Qiu Ning, who had just been pushed away by him, was only four years old this year and did not understand what death was. He asked naively and confusedly, "What happened to Brother Jiang?"
The talented but nowhere to display screenwriter Xiang Xiaotong had already burst into tears, and her makeup was completely ruined. She squatted down and patted Qiu Ning on the back, choking up and saying, this might be the penultimate time we see Brother Jiang.
Qiu Ning still didn't understand. He said, "Didn't Brother Jiang just get in the car with someone else? How could he go to the sky? Can't a car fly to the sky?"
The sight gradually turned into darkness, and Jiang Huai could no longer hear the subsequent conversation.
So this is death.
After a while, he regained consciousness and was surprised to find...
He is alive again.
He was in the noodle shop in front of Jingming Media Company. The shop was bustling with people. The boss shouted: "No. 27! No. 27! Where is No. 27? Your scallion oil noodles are ready!"
Jiang Huai was stunned for a moment, looked at the receipt in his hand, and stood up: "Sorry, number 27 is here, I was just in a daze."
"Oh, it's okay." The boss enthusiastically brought the noodles to the table. "Hey? Handsome guy! Are you here for an interview at Jingming?"
She didn't wait for Jiang Huai to answer, and said immediately: "You are so handsome! I think you will definitely be famous! I will give you a big steak soon! When you become famous, please promote me on Weibo! Just take a photo and pretend to accidentally reveal the name of our store!"
Jiang Huai looked bewildered. The boss had already added pork chops to his bowl and patted his shoulder cheerfully: "Eat quickly! My pork chops are delicious! If they become popular, I'll treat you to them for free!"
"Ah...thank you." He nodded to express his gratitude, but in his heart he was thinking that the boss's wish might be dashed.
He just couldn't become popular. After ten years in the entertainment industry, he was still just a pitiful nobody.
[I've given you a chance to start over, why don't you have any ideals? 】
An electronic sound suddenly appeared in his mind.
The voice was not cold, but rather the voice of a novel popularized many years later accompanied by a slime-cutting soap subway surfers video, chattering in Jiang Huai's mind.
There was only one voice, but it made a noise like a huge army: [Look at you! Even the owner of a small noodle shop knows how to use the name of the shop for publicity! Why can't you use your brain to think about how to hype it up? ]
[Who are you?] Jiang Huai said numbly.
He had just died, and he felt that ever since he was hit by the steel plate, everything that had happened had developed to be as unreasonable as an 18-tier online article written by an illiterate author.
The electronic voice coughed, as if to straighten its expression: [I am Entertainment Industry Counterattack System No. 819. Now bound to the host Jiang Huai. Analyzing the host's life experience. ]
[14 years old... This is important but not particularly important. Let’s just talk about my experience in the entertainment industry.
At the age of 18, the host was discovered by a scout on the street and joined Jingming Media.
At the age of 20, the host participated in the talent show "Idol 101", got off to a great start with his first triple A day, and won the second place in a round of voting.
But as the show continued, the host's ranking dropped. Although the reputation has always been good, some people said that despite his good looks and strong abilities, he was boring and did not attract fans. In the end, thanks to the support of the company, he barely made his debut in ninth place.
At the age of 21, the limited talent show group that lasted for one and a half years disbanded. The host starred in the Apple Video A-level modern romance drama "I Think of You Tonight", which also received good reviews, but it was not popular and finally flopped.
22 years old... nothing much to say. Anyway, the resources are gradually declining, and the host is always failing.
At the age of 26, the host terminated the contract with Jingming Media and began to perform in low-cost short dramas.
27 years old. Just now, the props for the skit were of poor quality and the host died. 】
The electronic voice finally stopped its long narrative. Perhaps because Jiang Huai was too silent, it said, "Host? Are you listening?"
[So what?] Jiang Huai asked, [Although I am not well-known, I have worked hard for many years. As the saying goes, there are many rumors in the entertainment industry. Good news never goes out, but bad news spreads far and wide...]
[I understand now.] The system sneered, [It's impossible to convince a stubborn person like you with just words, I still need to use some tricks.]
The next second, 1001 selected Jinjiang entertainment novels were packed into his brain. The sexual orientations included romance, pure love, lesbian, no CP, and multiplex. Jiang Huai felt that his brain was overloaded and he had a severe headache.
When the pain subsided, he finally understood everything.
【Do you understand now? 】
【I understand.】
[Not bad, you've made rapid progress. Let me test you, what should we do now?]
【Hype.】
[There’s no need to do it at 800 times the speed.] The system was silent for a while, [You should eat the noodles now, and then we’ll go to Jingming Media to sign the contract.]
【……oh. 】
The scallion oil noodles were still not cold, Jiang Huai started to move his chopsticks, and asked the system while eating: [Do I have any cheat codes? ]
The system was amazed at his change: [You are really smart. Let me take a look.]
Five minutes later, the system said: [Here it comes! Deluxe Gold Finger Gift Pack! You can only choose one. Think about it carefully. I will analyze it with you carefully.]
A colorful shopping mall with a web game style immediately appeared in front of Jiang Huai.
Mind reading, portable space, luck plundering, koi physique, role-playing, predicting the future, stand summoning, aura revival, body empathy, charmer physique, pheromone transformation... There are all kinds of golden fingers suitable for different sets, which can be said to have all the five poisons.
[I recommend you to choose this luck plunder. I feel that the reason why you keep failing is because of bad luck. Your own conditions and strength are very good, but you just lack the east wind. Moreover, luck plunder can slap the villain in the face anytime and anywhere, which is very refreshing. ]
【I don't. 】
【Why? 】
[Because the author said I'm a good person. At the beginning, I died because I was trying to save the child. Now, in the first chapter, I'm taking away other people's luck and indirectly harming them. It's too OOC.]
【ah? 】
[Roleplay, I want to choose this. You mean the vest that is often mentioned? ]
[Yes. But why? If you use a vest, you have to come up with a complete character yourself, and switch roles. And you can't design it as you like. You can only have a vest that is less popular than you. You can't just create a top-tier vest and start sucking blood. It's very troublesome. It's not even as easy as the Koi Physique. ]
[Because the author said this is a fake article.]
[Wake up. Our novel does not have any meta elements.]
[Okay. Because being gay in talent shows can easily make you popular.]
[Wouldn't it be better to have a heartthrob physique? 】
[I am a straight man. I get nauseous when I try to sell gay stuff to other people. I can’t sell it at all.]
[So you are just being lesbian with yourself? ]
[Yes. What do you think?]
[… Quite innovative, I guess. It’s so funny that a straight man can only be gay with himself. ]
In short, Jiang Huai finished his scallion oil noodles and walked into Jingming Media.
At this point in time, he has just turned 18 and has no acting experience.
Following the trajectory of his previous life, Jiang Huai first worked as a trainee at Jingming Media for two years, and only after his singing and dancing skills were strong enough did he participate in "Idol 101".
"Produce Producer" is a cooperative project between two leading companies, Jingming Media and Huatian Entertainment. After the program introduced overseas copyrights, some localized details were added. In addition, the two companies jointly promoted it, and it became a household name on the Internet at the time.
After the show ended, the two major companies wanted to strike while the iron was hot and launch "Idol 101", but the fans of the show at the time were not so ruthless. They cursed for a full two million times, saying that they should at least wait until the old group graduated before launching a new show. Your greed is too ugly!
So Jingming and Huatian had no choice but to hold their noses and wait for a year until the "Produce Producer" limited group was disbanded before starting "Idol 101".
In other words, at this moment, "Produce Producer" is still recruiting contestants.
Jiang Huai had been an actor for six years before his death, but he was a principled person. He never forgot his original intention and often posted some dance videos to please him. He had very few fans at all, and he had not completely forgotten the basic skills.
not to mention……
He is the well-deserved first Class A contestant of "Idol 101".
Of course he will need to slowly rehabilitate himself before participating in a talent show, but his current level is more than enough to handle the urgent needs of the interview.
The music gradually started to sound. For Jiang Huai, this was a popular song from nearly ten years ago.
The syncopated rhythm is bizarre and changeable. The rich voice of the queen singer Xiao Wenping sounds simultaneously with the drum set. The heart is beating strongly, the thumping sound is particularly powerful, and finally returns to calmness.
The familiar feeling is back.
The body suddenly burst out with strength, as if being pulled by an invisible thread, and every cell was beating to the beat of the music.
Jiang Huai closed his eyes, and fragments of memories from his long-ago trainee days slowly unfolded in his mind - in an empty dance studio, a boy who had just turned eighteen was facing the mirror, practicing repeatedly.
Sweat had soaked his clothes countless times, but he was just as determined as ever. He entered the company based on his looks and had a D rating in his ability, but eventually he was ranked in the top three in the monthly evaluation.
As the melody rose, Jiang Huai's movements became more and more smooth and full of power. Every turn and every jump was precisely on the beat.
However, what is more contagious than his movements is his expression, which changes with the ups and downs of the queen's emotions in her singing. Coupled with his young but handsome face, it is really hard to find fault with him.
When the last note fell, he ended the performance with a perfect freeze frame.
The interview room fell silent again.
After a few seconds, applause slowly broke out, followed by more applause.
The first woman to applaud looked to be in her forties, wearing a standard professional black suit. Time had left wrinkles on her face, but the competence and confidence in her brows had not diminished in the slightest.
Jiang Huai knew her.
Her name is Sang Hong, and she is the main person in charge of the "Produce Trainee" project on Jingming Media. Two years later, Sang Hong will be promoted to the deputy executive president of Jingming Media because of the success of this project. She is an absolute career strongman.
Sang Hong nodded: "Very good, but not like a newcomer."
As expected of the future vice president, he has a sharp eye: "On the one hand, your performance level is a level higher than your basic skills."
She twirled the pen and continued, "The more crucial point is that there is a camera filming in your subconscious mind, so you are managing your facial expressions very well. If this were a talent show, of course there would be nothing wrong with it, but it seems a bit exaggerated compared to performing in front of us."
The woman flipped through the resume on the table and asked, "Have you practiced in other companies before?"
