Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: Second Life

International routes to M continent.

A tremendous roar echoed over the Pacific Ocean, followed by an explosion that, along with the sound of air being torn apart, engulfed all life, exploding into chilling fireworks against the dark night sky.

The victims numbered in the dozens, including Feng Tianhan, the founder of the well-known multinational trading group "Ice Age".

This person started from scratch, which is considered a legend in the industry.

It is said that this person had no relatives or friends. In his youth, he worked as a tractor driver in the economically underdeveloped countryside. He caught the trend of farmers moving to the city and worked as a truck driver for several years after leaving the village, specializing in transporting large trucks in various parts of western China. Later, he and his brother made a living by working odd jobs all the way south. Eventually, they found a job as laborers in a joint venture export garment factory in G city. With his exceptional observation skills and sharp mind, he gradually figured out the rules of the market and accumulated experience and connections. During the period when the garment export industry was still in its golden age, he raised funds and finally started his own factory after countless setbacks.

His keen sense of fashion allowed him to seize the export boom in a short period of time, exporting many trendsetting garments to numerous neighboring countries. He also achieved considerable success in performing arts costumes and bar attire, earning a good reputation in the entertainment industry.

After quickly accumulating his first fortune, his good friend and subordinate seized the opportunity presented by the cross-border timber trade in F continent. He continued to invest and pay attention, and the group quickly reached a cooperation agreement with the local government. Afterwards, they finalized the mining rights and accurately leveraged the power of new energy. They used lithium mines mined in F continent to supply new energy power plants. Before others could react, they became a giant in the new energy market. After that, everything went smoothly, and they ventured into car factories, machinery factories, electronics factories, and more.

They were incredibly lucky.

So much so that he died before he was 40 years old, and he never married or had any children.

"The incident happened suddenly, and all senior executives of the group feel sorry for the chairman. Internal sources indicate that until the truth behind this accident comes to light, Xiao Huxin, one of the founders of Ice Age, will temporarily assume his duties..."

The online TV also showed a video of the founder attending a meeting in J City, which is one of the few videos on the internet that shows him face-to-face after he became famous.

A tall, upright man got out of the car with his lips pursed. He walked at the front of the crowd with a deep expression, completely ignoring the flashing lights and pursuit cameras. His black-clad bodyguards pulled up a cordon for him. The man seemed a little tired, but the moment he looked at the flashing cameras, his eyes turned cold and his snake-like eyes flashed with a chilling light.

The video ends here.

"died?"

"This is so unlike you."

The man's voice echoed in the empty room. The man, who had been leaning against the sofa, stood up with interest, walked to the window, and let the cold winter wind fill the room.

His eyes, shimmering like peach blossoms, held a dark, ambiguous quality, and his eyebrows drooped slightly. His face, usually so gentle as a spring breeze, his lips curved in a smile, lacked any warmth, yet under the warm yellow light, he appeared as handsome as a god.

A single cinnabar mole between his brows, as red as blood, possesses a captivating and eerie allure.

"Look... I haven't even made a move yet..."

The night wind blew away the last words of his speech, turning them into the final secret between him and the man on the electronic screen.

The suffocating feeling of drowning.

The man was in a daze, unable to perceive whether he was in the heat of an explosion or in a cold fantasy of pitiful ashes falling into the abyss of the ocean.

A consciousness as fragile as walking on thin ice.

A cold, electronic mechanical voice exploded in the man's mind, and he forced himself to open his eyes despite the dizziness.

I'm not dead yet!

The sounds around me became clearer.

His will to survive brought him back to his senses. Instinctively, he twisted the wrist that had just torn his hair and shoved it into the pool, until he heard a sharp crack.

The man immediately bent over and let out a pig-like scream.

"Aaaaaah! You son of a bitch, how dare you treat me like this? I'll never forgive you!"

A splitting headache.

The air was thick with the stench of sewage and the nauseating smell of alcohol.

In the unfamiliar setting, the man... no, the young man, paused, taken aback.

The dimly lit, cramped, semi-open bathroom, the dilapidated courtyard with its awning—these were all familiar to him. In the first few years after he came to the city, he and his friends lived in places like this… But even though his plane had crashed, why was he still able to stand up now?

The burly drunkard opposite him continued to pester him, trying to pounce on the skinny young man as usual, but the cold-faced young man punched him in the jaw, knocking him unconscious on the spot.

The drunkard collapsed to the ground and remained motionless, but his life was not in danger.

The young man disgustedly bypassed the drunkard and walked into the courtyard, when an electronic voice suddenly rang in his mind.

Congratulations on becoming the host of the "Second Life" system!

What? The young man wasn't a believer in supernatural phenomena, but looking at his noticeably smaller body and hands, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"Hello?"

Before we understand the situation, it's best not to act rashly.

"Hello, host. You may call me 'Alpha'. Now, let me introduce you to our current situation..."

The cold, inorganic mechanical voice entered the young man's brainwaves, making him accept the bizarre experience of being resurrected in another's body.

According to Alpha, after the plane crash, he was chosen by the system to be reborn in a corpse, and he will live on as this young man.

The young man's name is Bo Bing. He is 22 years old and graduated from a film academy. He was selected by an agent and signed a contract to become a trainee.

Bo Bing's family situation is rather complicated. After giving birth to him, his mother, unable to endure the verbal abuse and beatings from the man, ran away. This drunkard is his nominal father, Bo Xiaolong. After his business failed and his partner absconded with the money, he became despondent, spending his time either watching over goods, drinking, or gambling, doing nothing productive. The village introduced him to a widow with a son. The woman has a decent job, and her family helps her out, all to avoid being gossiped about as a widow in the village.

Bo Xiaolong had drunkenly caused trouble for the woman several times, and even her son and Bo Bing, who was protecting them, were not spared. Afterwards, the woman called her parents' home, and several of her brothers came, grabbed him, and gave him a severe beating. He became much more obedient after that.

However, the original owner was in a terrible situation. Although the woman treated him well, Bo Xiaolong dared not touch the woman or the son she brought with her, but instead used him as his only punching bag.

On the other hand, Bo Bing had been with the agency for more than a year and a half, but the agency was much more complicated than he had imagined. Because of his timid personality, his family's modest income, and the fact that he had to take time out to work, he was often bullied in the practice room.

As long as you choose to fulfill the obsession left behind by the original owner, you can start your second life in a new body.

What if I can't finish it?

"Return to your original body."

Isn't that just death? The young man found it somewhat amusing, but no matter what, it's better to live a miserable life than to die.

"I will work hard."

"Now we will begin the memory fusion process for the host."

[Memory fusion begins]

[Memory fusion complete]

Another sharp, stabbing pain shot through his mind. After the pain subsided, he regained control of all the memories that originally belonged to Bo Bing.

"Congratulations on starting your second chapter in life."

From this moment on, he is Bo Bing.

He will definitely help the original owner fulfill his obsession, then climb up and personally execute the traitors who framed him and caused his death.
