They don't actually think I like them, do they?

Your previous songwriting and piano playing skills are also top-notch in the industry. What other "insignificant" strengths do you have that you haven't revealed yet?

This guy is actually preparing for the college entrance exam!

At this moment, the girls are certain that this person hasn't made a comeback yet, and the entertainment industry should really feel fortunate!

Lin Han breathed a sigh of relief when he received a notification from his system that the task was completed.

Finally, it's all over...

"Hurry up, hurry up, it's my turn!"

Orange excitedly stood up, wanting to switch places with Peach.

"What are you doing?" Lin Han was stunned.

"Makeup, huh? We'll leave all the makeup to you," Orange said with a smile.

“Me too.” Mangzi raised his hand.

"Didn't you already put on makeup?" Lin Han turned to Mangzi in alarm.

"I'm in too much of a rush, I need to redo it."

As Mangzi spoke, she pulled out a cotton pad from her bag and began removing her makeup on the spot. She couldn't just stand by and watch her friends all have beautiful makeup on while she was still wearing a simple one.

I'll have to pay you for doing this!

Lin Han, who had already completed his task, never expected that he would have to continue doing hard labor.

But he just couldn't bring himself to say he wanted to take the money. So he had no choice but to compromise.

Two and a half hours later.

Lin Han finally finished doing makeup for the four girls on the plane. The girls took out their phones and kept taking selfies, admiring the makeup that Lin Han had created for each of them, feeling very happy.

"Lin Han, you're really amazing. Teach me how to do makeup sometime," Mangzi said, putting down her phone and leaning on Lin Han's arm.

"Brother, teach me too~" Peach nestled on Lin Han's other hand and pleaded sweetly.

"I need to do my homework!"

Lin Han, whose energy was almost completely depleted, finally mustered up his courage, shook off the two girls' hands, took out the test paper, and began to write in a flamboyant style.

......

At 18:42 in the afternoon, the plane arrived at Chengdu Airport.

Lin Han felt as if he had been transported to another world after getting off the plane.

Finally home.

Lin Han had never felt that the air on the mainland was so sweet!

The girls, carrying large and small bags, walked into the airport terminal.

From afar, they could hear the excited shouts of their fans.

"Mangzi, I love you!!!"

"Little Peach, Little Peach, you're so cute, waaaaaah!!"

"Sister Pingzi, you've become even more beautiful!"

"Orange, Orange, can I wear this school swimsuit one more time...?"

Despite the overwhelming and frenzied fans, the girls maintained their composure throughout, nodding, smiling, and occasionally blowing kisses.

Lin Han, standing behind the girls, wore a mask and sunglasses, maintaining the image expected of a bodyguard!

As it turned out, Lin Han's makeup and styling were quite successful. What was originally just an ordinary idol pick-up event turned into a fashion show because the girls' outfits were so beautiful!

A barrage of lights shone down, and fans pulled out their phones to take pictures. What should have been a ten-minute walk took them half an hour.

Volume Summary

This concludes the first installment of this volume. In order to write better and better in the future, I've decided to do a summary and share some of my thoughts with everyone. I also hope to see what you, my dear readers, think.

The current chapters of this book mainly focus on Lin Han's psychological journey (this may not be the case later). You can understand it as a protagonist who grows and develops.

The end of each volume signifies that Lin Han has taken another step closer to becoming stronger, but the current indecisive Lin Han is still far from enough to become the "King of Entertainment" who can change the world.

This volume, "Emerging Talent," mainly tells the story of how Lin Han, after overcoming his inferiority complex and understanding the meaning of "entertainment collapse," gradually uses his abilities to find a path that suits him.

Although he has a grand goal of "making a name for himself," his smaller goals become less firm in this volume. For example, he initially agreed not to debut, but after going around in circles, he still accepted Bilibili's terms. To put it bluntly, Lin Han's current creative work is nothing more than making money, and he is still completely clueless about his current goals, figuring things out by trial and error.

The above is a summary of the contents of this volume.

Next, I'll talk about the parts of this volume that I'm not satisfied with.

The main problem is still the romantic relationship.

I believe that most of you who have followed this far appreciate the book's lighthearted and enjoyable style. However, when it comes to writing the romance, I obviously can't make it too silly.

If you can't even be serious about love, what else is worth being serious about?

So I choked up. I was having a lot of fun writing the career storyline, letting myself go, but when I got to the romance storyline, I had to get serious.

Therefore, this might create a sense of disconnect for readers: after a lot of fun and excitement, suddenly there are several slow-paced chapters with little humor, which can make the content feel a bit padded and uninteresting.

For most books, this shift from "light" to "serious" might be normal. But what's absurd about this book is that its "lightness" goes too far, and the sudden change in style is indeed more difficult to accept than with other books.

I don't know how many readers feel this way, but if so, I think it's purely due to my own poor writing skills.

I'm still searching for a suitable middle ground between the "emotional storyline" and the "career storyline," hoping to bring a better reading experience to everyone in the next volume, so that it doesn't feel like a rollercoaster ride that's sometimes exciting and sometimes boring and bland.　

About the next volume.

Lin Han has been holding back his big move for long enough. Now, it's time to put aside his indecisive nature and make his way through the entertainment industry!

The romantic storyline might be reduced a bit as a result, but Lin Zong's path to godhood will surely not disappoint everyone.

Thank you all for your continued support. See you in the next volume!

001. Back to Normal Life

Lin Han was really looking forward to this A-level active skill selection.

Lin Han obtained the [Forced Calm] skill here last time, and it has become one of the skills he uses most frequently.

It has to be said that this skill has no drawbacks except for its cooldown. It often helps Lin Han when he is unable to think calmly due to external factors, allowing him to solve problems rationally.

If I had to point out a drawback, it would probably be that the "forced calming" only calms the top of the head and has limited effect on the bottom.

Now that he has the opportunity to choose another skill, Lin Han needs to choose carefully.

Both skills are easy to understand; one restores stamina, and the other refreshes rewards. Lin Han imagined the scenarios in which these two skills would be used.

[DD Street]. For example, if Lin Han receives a random skill card as a reward for this mission, such as a [Dance Skill Card (Beginner)], he can refresh the page to get a different skill card if he is not satisfied.

Also, this [Rank A Active Skill Card] should be able to be refreshed to unlock other skill options, just like choosing Hextech.

However, the problem is also obvious: if a worse reward is found after the refresh, you cannot choose back to the reward from before the refresh.

Overall, it's a gambling skill.

Although Lin Han enjoys gambling, he feels that [Fatigue Elimination] seems to be more cost-effective.

Reaching zero stamina is every man's dream!

As for being twice as tired while sleeping, it doesn't matter. Lin Han won't do anything while sleeping, so what if he's ten times more tired?

For Lin Han, having [Fatigue Elimination] was like adding wings to a tiger, like Show Lo growing ten or more penises to simultaneously warm every girl—it was like Qin Shi Huang touching an electric wire—completely winning. Having a good gun also requires matching gunfighting skills.

This refers, of course, to Lin Han's singing career.

It's important to know that activities like singing, dancing, and rapping are extremely demanding on lung capacity and physical strength. With the [Fatigue Elimination] ability, Lin Han can extend his maximum stage time by a full two times!

This is something any artist would dream of!

Therefore, Lin Han ultimately chose [Fatigue Elimination].

Next, the final reward is the [Golden Egg], which we've never seen before.

Lin Han originally thought the system would really give him a golden egg, but to his surprise, the golden egg was stored in his personal inventory.

This looks like a lucky bag. Lin Han selected "Open".

[Gains: Luck*50, Collapse Index Voucher*20000, All Attributes +2]

After the system notification appeared, Lin Han suddenly felt a tingling sensation all over his body, as if he had been hit on the head with a club. He clearly felt a continuous stream of power gathering in his body.

Lin Han quickly got out of bed and stretched his limbs.

Based on the average adult's attributes being around 8-12, the +2 improvement in all attributes feels quite noticeable.

Lin Han flailed his fists and feet haphazardly, feeling his strength, agility, stamina, and other stats increase steadily and evenly, making it easier to use each part of his body.

Cool!

In addition, Lin Han also gained 50 points of luck, which brought his luck value to "70". With "30" left, Lin Han can start the "Lucky Moment".

Although the 20000 consumption vouchers cannot be included in the Honkai Index, they can be used directly by Lin Han when making purchases in stores, making them no different from the real Honkai Index!

No wonder it's a golden egg!

Lin Han was extremely satisfied with this reward; the four-day trip was absolutely worth it!

This surge in the index is equivalent to Lin Han releasing a new hit song.

At that moment, Lin Han remembered the new song he had written in Hokkaido.

Yes, I still have a new song I haven't recorded yet.

Lin Han never had the habit of putting things off until the next day, especially since he had to go to school the next day.

He quickly got up and went to the music room, turned on the light, opened the computer, and transferred the sheet music from his phone to the computer.

This was written by Lin Han during a break a couple of days ago when he and the girls were shopping in the city. The girls spent several hours buying swimsuits in the store.

Mayday's "Cheers".

Just as Lin Han was getting ready to try playing it once, his fingers touched the piano, but he hesitated.

He suddenly remembered that Hu Yan had sent him a message a few days ago, saying that she would officially start working at the company this weekend.

Why not record it at the company? How can you still record the complete version?

No, no, I'll record the piano performance version first, and then record the full version later. That's my usual style.

However, this song is different from "Ode to Love"; Lin Han intends to release this song as a solo album.

While releasing it on Bilibili first might boost Lin Han's popularity and generate buzz, it will inevitably affect album sales.

Lin Han has now signed a performance-based agreement, so sales are the most important thing. For Lin Han, who wants to reach the pinnacle, he can't always think from the fans' perspective. If he wants to climb higher, he has to be ruthless when necessary.

After much deliberation, Lin Han decided to postpone the recording.

For future new songs, I will release the album first, and then release a free recorded version on Bilibili two days after the album release.

In this way, I can say that I have lived up to my promise of "never changing".

Lin Han was determined to stand tall and still make money!

Over the next few days, life gradually returned to normal.

Lin Han, who had just returned to school, was immediately grabbed by Xu Hui and wouldn't let go, as Xu Hui insisted that Lin Han tell him about his experiences during the past few days of travel.

He wouldn't listen when we were on WeChat, and he would curse at me when I tried to explain things to him. It's only been less than a day and he's already cursing at me.

Lin Han had no choice but to tell him, since fathers always tend to be tolerant of their sons.

Lin Han didn't go into too much detail. He didn't mention things like being robbed by a greasy-haired man at the shrine or the embarrassing incident at the hot spring. He just talked about some ordinary things, such as what idols are really like in real life, the little quirks of the girls, their ways of speaking, and how big Peach's butt really is.

Even with such a brief explanation, Xu Hui was moved to tears and cursed Lin Han as inhuman.

Lin Han was very annoyed. He had to tell him the story, and then the man would curse at him. What kind of person was he?

After another tedious week of studying.

Early Saturday morning.

Lin Han dressed in slightly formal clothes, put on some simple makeup, sprayed some hair wax, and then went out.

As Lin Han approached the entrance of the residential area, a white SUV pulled up in front of him. On the side of the car was a line of eye-catching text: Bubble Media.

A driver wearing black sunglasses got out of the car and respectfully gestured for Lin Han to proceed.

Lin Han smiled and nodded, then got into the car.
