Studio Superstar: Chapter 92

Extra Three

‘People on Earth’ had been in the works for a long time.

The story took place in the future, and the protagonist was a researcher of a research institute.

One night, he had a nightmare. Once he woke up the next day, he found that his nightmare was gradually playing out in the real world.

A black lock-like symbol appeared above the human race, and strange numbers jumped below the ‘lock.’

1, 2, 3, 4… Disasters continued to occur, and humanity started to perish.

The protagonist and his group of friends struggled for a long time in the apocalypse. They wanted to find a way out of humanity. When the protagonist thought he finally found it, he discovered…

He wasn’t in the real world at all.

It also wasn’t a dream.

All of this actually happened on Earth 25 years ago.

At that time, he had a premonition that humanity would be unable to escape this series of disasters and would eventually perish.

Thus, he compressed and edited this last memory of humanity and this series of disasters into a video. He added a small piece of his own thinking, placed it in a small metal box, and launched it into the universe as the last echo of humanity, and as his personal and eternal remembrance.

Humanity had long since perished.

The nightmare that the protagonist had on the night before it happened wasn’t a nightmare at all.

It was a memory that had been played tens of thousands of times before in this little metal box.

Once he realized all the truths, high waves rolled up like wild beasts rushing into the water in front, rushing violently toward him.

The moment the protagonist turned around, the friends around him dissipated like smoke.

He looked up with tears in his eyes. He saw the shining stars and the deep black universe through the black locks in the sky.

The ‘people on Earth’ was actually the ‘man in the box.’

……

Xue Xiao finally decided to find another actor to star in the movie. He was responsible for directing, and Shen Tingyan was responsible for forming the team.

They filmed for a long time and encountered a lot of difficulties in the middle.

When he was trapped and didn’t know where to take the next step, Xue Xiao once considered what he should write in his next book to change his mindset.

Was it still science fiction, or was it a different type of drama novel?

What type of expectations would readers who had read ‘People on Earth’ have for his next work?

As a result, in order to change his mindset, Xue Xiao changed himself to another path. Then blocked himself again…

Shen Tingyan felt a bit amused when he saw it and said to him, “Why do you have to guess what the readers want to see? Xiao Xiao, have you ever thought that readers are looking forward to the story you want to present to them?”

Xue Xiao was slightly startled.

“You should think more about what you want to write now,” Shen Tingyan said lazily. “If there is really nothing you want to write, then there is no need to force it.”

Xue Xiao thought for a while before saying, “There are still stories I want to write…”

He suddenly became enlightened.

Shen Tingyan asked with interest, “What is it?”

Xue Xiao looked up at him with curved lips and said, “You will know the day it is finished.”

Shen Tingyan narrowed his eyes. “You have learned to keep people in suspense…”

Xue Xiao laughed out loud. He stood up and wanted to leave, but Shen Tingyan pulled him back. “Director Xue, as your lover, I should have the privilege of being the first to read your novel, right?”

Xue Xiao’s shoulders trembled slightly. He turned his head, leaned toward Shen Tingyan’s ear, and whispered, “Teacher Shen, you have long been in the story.”

Shen Tingyan: ?

The following year, People on Earth was released. The wonderful story and powerful special effects detonated the entire market.

For a whole month, terms related to the movie took turns to be on the hot search. This was all hotly discussed by netizens.

“After watching the movie, I walked out of the theater in a daze. When I looked back at the poster and saw Director Xue Xiao, I was even more in a daze… D*mn, he only debuted a few years ago? How come he is so good at acting and directing?”

“I have read the novel before, so I already knew the twists and turns in the story. But even though I knew the direction of the story, I still thought this movie was good to watch. The pace of the story was great, and the whole picture was very beautiful. Xue Xiao’s aesthetics are really good. I’m going to do a second watch in a few days…”

“When I first knew this novel would be adapted into a movie, I resisted not reading the original work, fearing that it would affect the viewing experience later. But now I’m feeling bad. The moment the protagonist realized the truth at the end, I really felt deeply moved. Deep despair, so suffocating…”

“When the real protagonist puts his thoughts into this small metal box, did he ever think that ‘he’ trapped in this box would be in despair forever? At first, I didn’t think he thought about it. Then after returning home, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that for the true protagonist who was on Earth 25 years ago, this feeling of despair is also a type of proof that he is still alive which is something he can no longer achieve…”

“Director Xue Xiao and Producer Shen Tingyan, these two are a husband and wife team. Thus, the quality can’t be bad at all.”

“So it is already assumed that they are a husband and wife teaming up? [covers face].”

“I used to think that Shen Tingyan’s resume was a unique miracle in the entertainment industry. I now have a hunch that Xue Xiao will become the second miracle. I look forward to the next XX Award for Best Director.”

“Are these two people real? This CP fan is going crazy!!!”

……

The expectations of countless viewers and the curiosity of countless fans were finally answered simultaneously on that day.

Xue Xiao once again stepped on the podium.

Only this time, it wasn’t as Best Actor but as Best Director.

Young and gentle, he held the trophy and certificate in a graceful manner. The ring on the ring finger of his left hand shone under the light.

It had been five years since he won the championship of Studio Superstar.

Five years had left almost no traces on his face. They only made his eyes brighter and calmer.

He said, “I want to thank a person who has accompanied me to grow up all the way. He is my teacher and my love.”

Below, countless people in the industry showed surprised looks.

It wasn’t about the explosive information but because Xue Xiao dared to say it on the stage.

In today’s society, same-sex love was nothing new. It wouldn’t affect the future of artists. However, the official announcement of a relationship itself might have some impact on fans…

Thinking of this, they suddenly thought of the two crazy fanbases who were thirsty for news…

Well, the fans of these two people had long regarded each other as in-laws. it went from the initial resolute refusal of the romance rumors to watching the two people supporting each other and developing their careers. They might hope more than anyone else that these two could officially get married soon and announce it…

Looking at Shen Tingyan’s slight surprise, his curved up lips and scorching eyes… these two people would obviously make it public sooner or later.

Xue Xiao won the Best Director Award today and also gave her lover a romantic surprise.

Shen Tingyan couldn’t sit still.

He changed his sitting position. When he raised his hand, the cameraman shot the same ring on his ring finger.

On the Internet, the topic instantly exploded in popularity. Countless fans and netizens were screaming and going crazy.

On the stage, Xue Xiao’s eyes curved. “Tomorrow is a new day. Starting from tomorrow, it is a new track.”

“Let’s move on to the next goal together.”

In the place where he looked, Shen Tingyan smiled and nodded elegantly.

……

The next day, Xue Xiao’s new book ‘Lover’ was officially released.

The two of them rushed to a new battlefield, leaving countless netizens chasing their backs and yelling, “Can you explain your love more clearly? We want to hear it!”

Another year had passed, and the new season of Studio Superstar had officially launched.

In the huge studio, the young man appeared in front of the participants.

He stood still in the center of all the eyes.

The participants screamed excitedly, but he just smiled softly and said.

“Hello, I am your mentor Xue Xiao.”

“Let’s work together and try to become a superstar in the studio!”

Grinning giggling rolling around and kicking my feet 🤧 We’ve come so far. A perfect closing. That was so much brighter and more heart-warming than I expected. So much more fun! The plays were intriguing, and the growth was pleasing. And the romance~ *sigh* We love our dog food slinging power couple!! Thank you for translating!

This is one of the books that turned me into a zombie because I just couldn’t put it down. I stayed up late reading till AM hours.

The author, and of course the translator, are so good at describing scenes of their plays I felt, “damn, I wish I can watch them for real”.

Thank you so much for translating 💜
