It was the familiar scene of choosing a profession again, but this time, Long Xun was no longer looking at conservative professions that covered the whole body. Instead, he lingered on professions like the Ming Cult, the Beggar Clan, and the Tang Clan, which were a bit revealing, but not too blatant.
The mermaid's aesthetic sense has had a certain influence on him; what he used to find shameful now looks kind of cute.
Not yet familiar with the remaining professions, Long Xun thought for a moment, then closed his eyes again and pointed randomly. When he opened his eyes, he saw the Beggars' Sect practicing Drunken Fist.
Okay, you're the one.
As his consciousness returned to reality, Long Xun opened his eyes and looked around at his surroundings.
The train carriage swayed slightly, and the familiar accompaniment of the music filled the air. Long Xun stared out the window, somewhat lost in thought. Across from him, a woman with a fair complexion but heavily made-up face smiled gently and sweetly, saying, "...Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've seen you. I didn't expect to run into you on the train."
Long Xun was bewildered; this was the first time he had encountered a situation where there were other people present during his time travel.
But his keen eyesight clearly showed him that this wasn't a train at all. Whose train could move for so long without the scenery outside changing at all? And how long had that telephone pole been standing there?
Do you really think he was born in the 22nd century and only saw descriptions of trains in history textbooks, so he doesn't know what a train looks like?
Hearing the woman speak, Long Xun turned around, glanced at her indifferently, and suddenly said, "You..."
"Card!"
The sudden sound once again left Long Xun bewildered.
Amidst the commotion, groups of people emerged from all sorts of unexpected angles into the carriage. A middle-aged man in a vest full of pockets walked over, waving a notebook, and forced a smile as he bowed to Long Xun, saying, "Mr. Long, you shouldn't have spoken at that moment. It wasn't written like that in the script..."
"Script?" What the heck?
"Yes, yes, yes, the script says that the character you play has very complicated feelings when she meets Jasmine again, so you just need to listen to her talk. You don't need to say or do anything..." the middle-aged man nodded.
Long Xun glanced around and saw that everyone was holding various equipment, clearly filming a movie.
No wonder this carriage looked so strange; he was dressed as an actor this time? But the place he arrived at was a bit too perfect—right in the middle of a crowd.
Just then, a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, exuding an air of sophistication, walked over and said in a deep voice, "Director, what is it?"
"Just now, during filming, Mr. Long added a line..."
Before the middle-aged man, who was also the director, could finish speaking, he waved his hand and said without a doubt, "If the boss wants to add lines, then add them. Why are you interrupting? Just change the script."
The middle-aged man swallowed back all his words, his face turning red. Long Xun was worried that he might have a stroke.
However, the director smiled again the next moment and said in a humble voice, "Okay, let's continue right away."
The large crowd dispersed again. The director went to discuss the script with the screenwriter. The elite had already turned around, bent down slightly, and gave Long Xun a humble smile: "Boss, do you need to take a rest?"
Long Xun was completely confused and could only nod slightly.
As he stood up, he noticed the sweet woman across from him, who had been smiling the whole time, subtly purse her lips and mutter something under her breath.
'A waste of time...'
It seems that he, the original owner of this body, was really not well-liked as an actor.
This carriage was just a small shack built from an abandoned train carriage. Stepping outside, you could see the general layout of the theater, with various track cameras and props scattered haphazardly, and staff busily tidying up.
Long Xun observed discreetly as the elite led him through the theater to a quiet house. After inviting him to sit down, they brought him a glass of water and apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, boss, the theater is too basic; we only have water to drink."
Long Xun gave a soft "hmm" and said, "Boss, you should rest first. I'll go discuss the script with the director."
After watching the elites leave, Long Xun immediately touched the ring on his middle finger.
Holy crap! What the hell is going on?!
The plot of this world and the original owner's memories flooded into his mind, and Long Xun immediately understood what was going on.
In summary, this is a typical male-oriented entertainment industry novel. The male protagonist has a system that not only provides him with special training but also unlocks various cheat codes, allowing him to climb the ladder of success in the entertainment industry and become an international superstar who can command respect. In addition, he also owns an entertainment company and amasses a fortune, with every script he writes attracting fierce competition from renowned international directors.
Long Xun is a minor boss who gets humiliated by the male lead in the early stages of the story. The male lead plays a minor supporting role in a TV series called "Reunion". He is disgusted that Long Xun in the original novel is an actor who can't act but gets the lead role by relying on his looks and money. However, the male lead's excellent acting skills make him a well-known actor, surpassing Long Xun in the original novel, while Long Xun remains unknown.
In the original novel, Long Xun doesn't have Long Xun's stunning face, so he can't captivate countless people with just his looks. His acting skills are also poor, so naturally he can't compare to the handsome male lead.
After that, the male protagonist took Long Xun as his underling (yes, you read that right, he took Long Xun as his underling), taught him acting skills, and Long Xun was very grateful to him. With his wealth, Long Xun became the male protagonist's second biggest cheat code besides the system.
Long Xun, also known as Boss Long, is the chairman of the Long Group and the head of the Long Conglomerate. Those who can be called conglomerates are all incredibly wealthy, possessing fortunes that rival those of entire nations. Long Xun is one such person—extremely rich and handsome; even a cough from him could send storms through the global financial system.
