Internet moguls are being held hostage by the entertainment system!

Chapter 17 The system releases new tasks

In just 10 days, we transitioned from June to July.

Chen Xiu also came to Shanghai Normal University from Suzhou University.

His role in "My Sunshine" was not complicated, and there were no unexpected situations during filming.

If things go according to plan, Chen Xiu will be able to wrap up filming smoothly after today's scene.

"Everyone to your positions! Let's finish this shot before the natural light disappears! 1, 2, 3, action!"

Ma Weiwei announced the start of filming.

In the medium shot, Chen Xiu and Wu Qian, appearing from the upper body, are facing the camera sideways against a backdrop of blurred plane trees and natural light, gazing at each other.

"I've thought about it."

Looking at Wu Qian, Chen Xiu pushed up his glasses: "If you're destined to be my girlfriend three years from now, why shouldn't I exercise my rights sooner?"

When Chen Xiu said that incredibly awkward line, he felt like digging his fingers into the floor.

But there was nothing he could do; it was the original text of the novel, and as awkward as it was, he could only repeat it verbatim.

Wu Qian doesn't need to give any response to this shot...

"Click! OK, that's a good take. Let's pack up and head to meet up with Group A!"

Chen Xiu suppressed her smile, nodded to Wu Qian, and then went straight to find Ma Weiwei.

"Director Ma, shouldn't my scenes be finished? Why do I still need to go and meet up with Team A?"

"We haven't taken our promotional photos yet. Group A has a location where we can go and take some photos. It'll only take a few hours, and then we'll wrap up filming."

Upon hearing this explanation, Chen Xiu nodded clearly.

He wasn't concerned about those few hours; the main issue was that the newbie quest wasn't over until the character was finished.

Fortunately, it will be over in a few hours.

Group A filmed at the M50 Creative Park on Moganshan Road in Putuo District. The "Yuan Xianghe Law Firm," "Zhao Mosheng's working magazine office," and "the coffee shop near the lawyer" in the TV series were all filmed here.

Shanghai Normal University is located in Xuhui District, not far from the city center; it only takes about half an hour to get there.

When Chen Xiu and the others arrived, Group A was filming, but that didn't stop them from taking promotional photos, as everything in the magazine office was readily available.

Promotional photos are pictures of the actors in their costumes for the TV series.

Chen Xiu put on the four outfits he wore in the drama one by one, and after filming, the synthesized electronic voice echoed in his mind.

【mission completed! 】

[Please select whether to accept the reward immediately?]

Chen Xiu paused for a moment, then glanced at the people around her before silently walking towards the restroom.

Arriving at the bathroom door and confirming that no one was there, Chen Xiu didn't bother to go in and smell the stench, and simply received the mission reward right at the door.

[New Player Reward: Increases testosterone production by 10% and receives one copy of the "Detective Chinatown" script]

Increased testosterone secretion by 10%...

This reward, when it took effect, made Chen Xiu feel more energetic, his clenched fists became stronger, and power was constantly gathering in his lower abdomen...

Testosterone, a hormone naturally secreted by the body, promotes muscle synthesis, strengthens joints, and facilitates development in certain areas.

The unique physical gift of Black people lies in their high levels of testosterone.

Chen Xiu has always maintained a calm attitude towards sex.

However, in just a short while, he suddenly felt a little distracted.

I must have been holding it in for too long, and with this added fuel to the fire, I'll be taking a cold shower tonight...

After spending some time adjusting to the changes in her body, Chen Xiu began to lean against the wall, hunching over, and began to examine the "Detective Chinatown" script that had appeared in her mind.

After quickly skimming through it, he discovered that the script's content was completely identical to the movie he had seen in his previous life. In other words, Chen Xiu could simply copy the script, register it, or even go further and publish it as a novel.

In that case, the "Detective Chinatown" IP, worth tens of billions, would completely become his property...

Thinking of this, Chen Xiu's eyelids slowly widened, and her eyes gleamed with a light that seemed to indicate she had been hungry for a long time and was ready to feast.

This so-called "internal entertainment industry rectification system" is quite something!

The reward given is so generous that it certainly matches the title.

Chen Xiu stroked his chin, looking extremely satisfied with the reward given by the system.

However, his satisfaction could only remain at this moment.

[New player quests successfully completed, system successfully upgraded, new quests now being issued]

[Rise to Fame Mission: Play a leading male supporting role in a TV series with an average viewership rating exceeding 1. Time Limit: 6 months]

[Refusing or failing a task: a 70% reduction in testosterone production]

[System upgrade feature: The host can view details of TV dramas with a viewership rating of over 1% over the years]

7……70……?
I failed the beginner quest, and you only dropped by half, now you want 70%? This stupid system is playing incremental mode!

Moreover, they gave us such a difficult task!

I'm a newbie, a complete newbie!

Whose newcomer is playing a supporting male role in their second project? Do you think everyone is like Da Tian Tian?
Having just climbed out of one pit only to be kicked into an even deeper one, Chen Xiu harbored strong resentment towards the system's increased task difficulty.

He had anticipated that the system would release more tasks later, but he never expected this task to be so outrageous.

There are only a handful of TV dramas a year that achieve a viewership rating of over 1%.

The main supporting male roles are highly coveted resources, especially for second- and third-tier male stars, and even some first-tier male stars whose status has declined.

Given Chen Xiu's current status, calling him an 18th-tier celebrity would be an understatement.

Using the term "ordinary person" would be more accurate.

To compete with established male stars as an ordinary person... that's practically an impossible task.

But it has to be done, even if it's impossible!
The system offered no room for negotiation; refusal and failure would both result in punishment. Chen Xiu had no choice but to complete the task.

Unless he's willing to become a eunuch and give up those worldly desires... how is that possible?
"grass!"

Chen Xiu's composure is usually quite good, but now that he's broken down to the point of swearing, it's really because the system is too unfair.

After he finished cursing, he irritably took off his glasses, pulled his bangs back from his forehead, and turned to face the wall.

"Um, are you okay?"

A gentle voice came from the side just before Chen Xiu was about to kick the wall.

Chen Xiu turned his head and saw a very thick bob haircut with bangs and a mature woman's face staring at him cautiously.

Upon seeing the person's appearance, Chen Xiu paused for a moment, then quickly regained her composure.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Tang Yan. I'm also an actor in the drama 'My Sunshine.' I was a little out of line just now."

"It's okay, it's normal to be in a bad mood sometimes. Which character are you playing?"

Tang Yan waved her hands repeatedly, but the wariness in her eyes did not disappear.

Seeing her unconsciously backing away, Chen Xiu put her glasses back on, trying to make herself look gentler.

"I played He Yichen during his university years, and filming has already wrapped up."

"Oh, it's you! Director Ma and Producer Fang were looking for you outside. What are you doing here?"

"I need to use the restroom..."
