Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Prologue

Putting down his phone, having just finished another Huayu (Chinese entertainment) novel, Wu Hao let out a sigh. He scrolled through the entertainment novel category on his app, finding either books he had already read or ones that were simply unbearable. Checking the time, it was already half-past midnight. Sleep eluded him, so he adjusted himself into a more comfortable position and let his imagination take over.

Wu Hao was your typical employee in a state-owned enterprise, a self-proclaimed lone wolf. His parents were in good health, his job was a breeze, and he had no financial worries. Day in and day out, his life remained stagnant. That's why Wu Hao spent his days idly watching variety shows and diving into novels, especially those juicy entertainment novels. After years of indulging in them, he couldn't help but yearn for a life within the glamorous entertainment industry.

No matter how shady that world may be, it was undeniably captivating for someone stuck in the same routine. As an actor, he could "experience" countless lives; as a director, he could showcase all kinds of wonders to the audience. Heck, even being part of a production crew would allow him to "travel" far and wide. But the ultimate allure lay in mingling with the myriad of "goddesses" that graced the industry.

Of course, Wu Hao knew he couldn't abandon his stable job to chase after the entertainment dream. So, he resorted to immersing himself in variety shows and novels, daydreaming about those encounters with goddesses.

His reading speed couldn't possibly keep up with his insatiable appetite for novels. After all these years, devouring countless web novels, particularly the obscure Huayu genre, Wu Hao had long run out of fresh material. He could only conjure up his own fantasies and ponder how he'd fare if he were the protagonist...

As Wu Hao delved deeper into his daydreams, he painted himself as the dashing lead in an exhilarating tale. He envisioned himself as a smooth-talking and talented actor, swarmed by devoted fans and breathtaking goddesses. Oh, the adventures that awaited him! The glitz and glamour of the entertainment industry called out, even if it was solely within the confines of his imagination.

Little did Wu Hao know that his mundane existence was on the verge of an unexpected twist. Destiny had a mischievous surprise in store, blurring the boundaries between reality and fantasy, propelling him into a whirlwind of comedic mishaps, passionate encounters, and perhaps even a shot at love.

As he continued to indulge in his daydreams, Wu Hao couldn't help but chuckle at the sheer absurdity of his fantasies. Little did he suspect that life had a wicked sense of humor, ready to play a sidesplitting prank on him. Brace yourself, dear reader, for a tale of unforeseen escapades, tantalizing temptations, and a dash of chaos. Wu Hao's journey was about to commence, promising a wild, unpredictable ride.
