The world of film and television begins with university lecturers

In Shanghai, at the Bulgari Hotel, Han Tao rubbed his slightly aching head and slowly opened his eyes.

"Where am I? How did I end up in a hotel?" His mind went blank, and he couldn't figure out what was going on for a moment.

Looking around, I found that the room was about 60 or 70 square meters, and through the floor-to-ceiling windows I could see the bustling Bund and the riverside.

Although I've never stayed in a particularly luxurious hotel before, judging from its location and decor, this hotel should be at least a five-star hotel.

There were two snow-white bath towels on the floor next to the bed. One of them should have been used by me, but who used the other one?

Or rather, he doesn't remember anything about what happened last night.

Shaking his still somewhat dazed head, he noticed a stack of brand-new bills on the bedside table, which looked to be about three or four thousand yuan thick.

"Damn, what's going on?" Han Tao rubbed his temples with his thumb and middle finger, quickly analyzing the situation in his mind.

"This whole room smells of alcohol. Did I get drunk last night and get picked up by a rich woman? And she even gave me a tip?"

Ding~~ The system has detected that the host has regained self-awareness. The "Enjoy Life System" has been successfully initialized. World information is being acquired. Acquisition complete.

  

Ding! Congratulations, host, on your first encounter with a film and television character and your gaining the "approval" of Jiang Lai, the female lead in the film and television world. You are rewarded with a newbie gift pack and 200 million in funds!

"The world of film and television? And it even gained Jiang Lai's approval..."

A memory flooded into Han Tao's mind as he muttered, almost causing him to faint from his already dizzy state.

After a long while, he finally sorted out the extra memories in his mind and realized that he had transmigrated.

Moreover, the world they're in isn't just any ordinary parallel world, but a composite world of film and television.

Not only is the female lead from "To Be a Better Man" here, but also Jiang Lai, with whom he had a one-night stand last night.

There are also the female lead Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo in "The Golden Years", because the original owner of the body was practically a colleague of Jiang Nansun's boyfriend Zhang Anren.

This golden phoenix, who also comes from a small town and is a "test-taking expert," just graduated with a master's degree this year and is pursuing a doctorate while trying to stay at the university as a teaching assistant.

My identity is that of a formally employed lecturer at the university, and I have been working for two and a half years, mainly responsible for two courses: "Military Theory" and "University Students' Career Planning".

Ding~~ Special reminder: This world is a composite film and television world on an alternate dimension Blue Star. The trigger conditions for the "Enjoy Life System" rewards are as follows:

1. Overcome the crisis of job transfer and maintain the original owner's and parents' obsession with staying at the school to teach and nurture students, and the cause and effect.

2. As long as you gain the recognition of ordinary people through educational lectures, courses, and other means, you can obtain recognition points.

3. Upon first encountering characters from the film and television world, you will receive a sign-in opportunity. Successful sign-in will grant you a sign-in gift pack containing skills, assets, special items, and more.

4. By changing the fate of characters in the original world and reshaping their values ​​and perceptions, making the world run more perfectly, you can get a chance to win a random prize.

5. Gain recognition from characters in the film and television world. For every 10 points of recognition you gain, you will receive a random reward. If you break through 50%, you will receive a big gift pack.

Special Note: 1. After the job transfer crisis is resolved, the obsession will be eliminated, but the cause and effect will remain. The host can choose to take a temporary position or even become a guest lecturer, but cannot completely leave the education industry.

2. Recognition points can be used to draw random rewards and purchase items, skills, assets, etc. in the system store.

3. The system may randomly generate hidden, main, side, and achievement tasks, and you can get generous rewards upon completion.

All tasks have no penalty mechanism and are dedicated to helping the host enjoy a free life. Please explore other functions on your own.

Ding! New player gift pack being sent out, would you like to accept it?

"Accept!" Han Tao silently repeated "accept," inwardly marveling at how true the great authors of Qidian were.

As expected, every transmigrator has an essential system; Mother Earth truly will not abandon any child who expands their territory in another world.

Ding! Congratulations, host, for opening the newbie gift pack and receiving the following rewards:

1. One Wall Street Investment Fund (a dedicated channel for distributing system-wide fund rewards; all funds are obtained through legitimate and legal means of exploiting Wall Street's resources).

2. A property in a mid-range residential community in the JA area of ​​Shanghai, currently under property management (all documents are complete and have been stored in the system space).

3. A car for personal use has been issued to the designated parking space in the residential community where the rewarded property is located (all documents are complete and have been stored in the system).

4. A reward of 100 million RMB will be transferred to the host's Industrial and Commercial Bank of China account through a legitimate channel. Please check your account.

Ding-dong! The phone on the table beeped with a text message notification. Han Tao opened the message:

Your ICBC savings card ending in 8753 received a cross-bank transfer of RMB 300 million from the Yew Tree Investment Fund, leaving a current account balance of RMB 363 million.

Han Tao put down his phone and took a deep breath, then closed his eyes to review the basic information about his identity in this world.

The original owner is 29 years old this year. He is from a small county in Northeast China. He was a top student since he was a child and skipped grades from elementary school to high school.

The original owner's mother was from Shanghai and was among the last batch of educated youth sent to the countryside. However, due to some special reasons, she was unable to return to the city in time and married her father, staying in Northeast China. As a result, she had a very strained relationship with her maternal grandparents.

My father was also a farmer's son. He served in the army for a few years and even fought in the southwest. However, he suffered from his lack of education and returned to his hometown to farm after being discharged from the army.

However, the original owner's parents had already passed away. They died in a traffic accident the year he graduated and tried to stay at the university.

The original owner's parents came to Shanghai to see their son, and also to reconcile with their grandmother.

But misfortune is unpredictable; on their way to visit their grandmother, the parents were killed in a car accident.

The original owner was depressed for a long time because of this incident, and felt very guilty. She didn't even go to reunite with her grandmother for more than half a year.

He originally studied at Wuhan University for his undergraduate degree, but before graduation, he offended someone because of something that happened. As a result, he was recommended by his mentor and was recommended by the university to pursue a combined master's and doctoral degree at Shanghai University.

Although she eventually fulfilled her parents' dying wish and successfully stayed in Shanghai, she also stayed on to teach at the university, securing a coveted position in a prestigious university.

However, things didn't go as planned. This year, Shanghai University just implemented a "last-place elimination system." If a student consistently ranks at the bottom, even a lecturer with a permanent position will be directly transferred to the logistics department.

To put it bluntly, it's a meritocracy where the capable rise and the mediocre fall. If you're good at something, everything is fine; if you're not, you'll end up guarding the gate or managing the warehouse, essentially retiring early.

As for contract-based lecturers and teaching assistants, they don't even have the opportunity to work in the back office; they are directly dismissed and forced to find their own way to make a living.

For another two years, the original owner slacked off and lay low. His "Military Theory" course was always taught by rote, and he didn't even bother to check if the students were watching TV series on their phones.

Another course, "Career Planning," also follows the trend, telling students motivational platitudes like "persistence in your dreams leads to success" and "a degree is the best stepping stone." At the end of the semester, it relies entirely on highlighting key points to help students get credits.

As a result, while the original owner was still lying around doing nothing, others were secretly working hard, so he also became the worst-performing student this semester.

The academic affairs office spoke with him specifically these past few days, and he is facing the crisis of being reassigned.

Several colleagues were worried that he was under too much pressure, so they advised him not to work so hard on the lesson plan, but to go out and relax and clear his mind.

Unexpectedly, while drunk in the bar, he encountered a woman with fiery red lips and a red dress, who was also drinking alone.

This person was Jiang Lai, who had just returned from abroad and was drowning her sorrows over her boyfriend's situation.

One was heartbroken in love, and the other was heartbroken in her career. They just started chatting and ended up having this rich girl dragging Han Tao to a hotel.

As for what happened next, it's obvious without even thinking about it. The last fragment of his memory was that after indulging, he fell into a deep sleep, and when he opened his eyes again, his body was under his control.

"Sigh, there's no going back anyway. My parents have my sister to take care of them, and they also have pensions, so they won't be left unattended. Since we're here, we might as well make the best of it!"

Han Tao shook his head and sighed. He had already transmigrated and even brought a system with him. Whoever wanted to live that life of a beast of burden in his previous life could live it. Anyway, he wasn't going to play along.

However, when his gaze fell upon the two stacks of money on the bedside table, he couldn't help but mentally complain:

"This love-struck, spoiled young lady, sleeping with anyone she wants, who does she think she is?"

"Let's not even talk about turning your back on someone after you've done your job; after all, you weren't me before."

But leaving without saying goodbye after finishing the job is really disloyal, and to give money back to his sister-in-law—who is he insulting?

"Most importantly, Jiang Lai is the eldest daughter of the Jiang Group, a true 'rich, beautiful, and successful' woman. Giving her so little money after just one night of sleeping with her is just too embarrassing!"

"Don't let me run into you again, or I'll teach this love-struck brat a lesson and show her why flowers are so red!"
