Novel Summary

[Female Lead + No CP (No Romance) + Plagiarist Writer + Screenwriting + Forum Style + System Overlay]

After a car accident, novelist Shu Ran agrees to the conditions of the Fame System—exchanging fame for lifespan. Faced with only three months of life from the newbie starter pack, she must quickly gain fame in order to survive.

System: Hurry up and write to earn lifespan!

Shu Ran: Haha, want to guess why I’m still a total nobody to this day?

System: Do you still want to live or not?

Of course I do!

By chance, Shu Ran discovers that the film and television industry in a parallel world is 20 years behind. Inspiration strikes—she’ll switch careers and become a screenwriter!

She starts by writing a few over-the-top dramatic mini-series to shock the naïve audiences of Blue Star.

Thus, works like "Back to the 90s to Marry Someone Else" and "The Real Daughter Chooses Not to Return Home" are born.

She earns lifespan—but also gets brutally criticized.

People say her dramas are formulaic and illogical?

Fine. She writes "Reset" to prove short dramas can also be brilliant.

They accuse her of writing brainless revenge plots just for the thrill?

She writes "The Glory" to show them what real revenge looks like.

One after another, Shu Ran produces hit dramas, eventually being hailed as a legendary screenwriter in the entertainment industry.

When asked how she did it, Shu Ran says:

“You might not believe this, but at first… I was just trying to survive.”

Note:

1. No romance (no CP), characters are not based on real people, and the pacing is not fast.

2. Long or short dramas are categorized based on the plot needs; expect many forum/commentary-style sections—please be patient.

3. Some short dramas are original; the rest are adapted ("plagiarized") from existing works across various countries.

4. If any plot seems uninteresting, it's due to poor writing on my part and not the fault of the original source. Plotlines may be adjusted as needed.
