Reborn in the Entertainment Industry

Author: Sarah Brown

Han Jue, a struggling screenwriter, woke up one day to find that not only had he changed, but the entire world had transformed. In this version of China, the entertainment industry is more advanced than Hollywood across the ocean. The Huaxia Golden Bull Award has become the most prestigious film award in the world. "The Singer" is in its tenth season as the top singing competition; "The Voice of China" airs every three years and each season is a nationwide event; "Rap of China" has just completed its eighth season with over 100,000 applicants; "The Masked Singer" airs weekly, always featuring voices that were previously undiscovered. On the streets, you can easily spot TV crews filming shows, live streamers with their phones, and prank videos from online celebrities. This is the golden era for those in the entertainment industry. But Han Jue, now a washed-up idol, is on the fringe of this entertainment boom and has absolutely no desire to be a star again, thank you very much. All he wants is to blissfully swim in a sea of mental nourishment and live the quiet life of a homebody.
