The story
Quick answer: 80 episodes, English original audio, and episodes 1–10 play right here tonight.
Middle-aged director Chen Wan devoted ten years of his heart and soul into making his girlfriend a star, only to be betrayed and humiliated by her and her scheming corporate backers when he fell into unemployment. At his lowest point, he awakened the "Life as a Stage System," a mysterious ability that allowed reality to reflect the scenes he performed, as long as his acting convinced the audience. With this newfound power, Chen staged a dramatic comeback as the heir to the Chen Conglomerate, unveiling the shocking truth about the Shen family's missing son-in-law in the process.
His journey was a relentless rollercoaster of triumphs and twists: dismantling family feuds, safeguarding his wife and reuniting with his estranged sister, putting arrogant bullies in their place on campus, and even heroically defusing a ticking bomb in a heart-stopping crisis. The twists and turns came fast and furious, delivering an unrelenting stream of satisfaction and surprises.
