Chapter 6: Dreams
Cheng Chentong's communication with Xiaoya and his view of the personal records of the virtual space gave him a preliminary understanding of the owner of this body.
His name is Jiang Hao, he has lived in a small town near the sea near the Twin Cities since he was a child, his parents are fishermen, half a year ago, Jiang Hao had just finished 12 years of primary education, and his father died in an accident while going out fishing.
Because of the average family background, there are younger brothers and sisters to raise, and now they have lost their main source of income.
Jiang Hao resolutely stopped his studies, came to the Twin Cities half a year ago, and entered the Times BEST as a store finisher with the introduction of Sister Zeng, an acquaintance in his hometown, although the salary is not high, only 1,500 star coins, but with the purchasing power of star coins today, he can actually live a good life.
But Jiang Hao actually only left 500 star coins every month, and all the rest were sent back to his home, so his life was very poor.
Moreover, he also has an unknown dream, yes, Jiang Hao has envied and longed for those big stars he has seen on the star network since he was a child, and he longs for himself to become a superstar who is sought after and loved by countless people.
In this era, because of the development of the entertainment industry, the status of entertainment practitioners is very high.
At the same time, because the entertainment industry has developed into a huge industry, the entire industry has formulated a very standardized and systematic grading and management system. For example, there is a strict hierarchy of brokers, directors, artists, and even entertainment media companies.
Among them, artists mainly include actors, singers, hosts, and models.
According to the division method of the ten-star three-class system, artists are divided into ordinary artists (one-star, two-star, three-star artists), star artists (four-star, five-star, six-star artists), king-level artists (seven-star, eight-star, nine-star artists), and there is also a ten-star artist, which is the highest achievement of an artist, and is generally not included in the range of three levels.
Artists are generally only qualified to be called stars if they reach more than four stars, such as singers, movie stars, etc., and those who reach more than seven stars are generally crowned with a crown or queen, and are called kings or queens. As for the ten-star artist, it already belongs to the legendary emperor-level superstar, such a ten-star artist, both men and women have their own unique titles, such as Gongzi Wushuang, Skywalker, Shining Angel, Ice Empress, etc., human development has not exceeded 100 ten-star artists so far, although the life span of human beings has exceeded 200 years old, but there are only one or twenty ten-star artists still alive in the world.
From these, you can see why Jiang Hao is very much looking forward to becoming a star.
Because of the high status, high income, and high prestige of celebrities, as a teenager who has been nurtured by this entertainment-oriented society since childhood, it is inevitable that he will have this kind of dream.
You must know that as long as you become a one-star signed artist, you can be included in the citizen class by all the government forces of mankind, and the citizen class and above only occupy one-third of the entire human society, and once you become a citizen class, all kinds of social benefits alone are enough for you to enjoy a very superior material life without doing any work.
And four-star artists and above can step into the elite class of society, at that time, not only are they sought after and loved by tens of millions of people, even those rich businessmen and politicians have to give you face and respect you. Because the social climate is like this, those who are powerful also have to follow the rules of the game. Except, of course, for those political and business leaders who can break the rules. However, after the artists reach a considerable height, they also have the ability to break the traditional rules, and those top artists are all the ones who call for wind and rain in society.
In fact, Jiang Hao himself is a teenager with perseverance and ideas, with ideals and perseverance to move towards his ideals, the school he applied for admission to before was a secondary performing arts professional school, but unfortunately although he was admitted, he did not have the financial ability to study.
After giving up his studies, he didn't forget his original ideals, and soon after working in the Twin Cities, he decided to continue his dream of stardom through his own hard work.
He buys free acting knowledge and video simulation teaching through the external star network of guòFF for self-study.
The glasses that Cheng Chen had been wearing before were actually the most commonly used names for FF or Feifei, Xiaofei, FF is the abbreviation, and the full name is Fullfunctionsmartbrain, that is, full-function intelligent brain. It is very practical, with two modules, the built-in small housekeeper and the external satellite network, extending its role to every little detail of people's lives.
Basically, every natural person who was born can apply for the right to use FF when he or she enters school at the age of six, but the "Law on the Protection of Minors" issued by the Association for the Protection of All Mankind and Children in 212 clearly stipulates that minors under the age of 18 are strictly prohibited from purchasing virtual machines and using the Star Extranet.
Jiang Hao finally unlocked all the functions of FF half a year ago, and Xiaoya is the primary intelligent virtual machine qì that he bought for a hundred star coins after a month of work.
The Star Network, also known as the Star Network, is somewhat similar to the World Wide Web in Cheng Chen's previous life, but the amount of information on the Star Network is more than 100 million times, and the biggest difference between the Star Network and the World Wide Web is the application of virtual space technology.
In addition, because although there are no national boundaries in this world, there are four major alliance governments, and nearly 100 billion human beings are distributed in dozens of planets in more than a dozen galaxies, so in order to buffer the network delay caused by distance and save the cost of long-distance information transmission, the star network is divided into four main networks according to the alliance forces: the Asian Star Sky, the EU Star Sky, the CIS Star Sky, and the NATO Star Sky. Generally, the traditional network transmission technology used by the planet is low-cost, which is called intranet; The long-distance network transmission technology used across planets, which is more expensive, is called an extranet. The use of inter-galaxy or cross-alliance star extranets generally requires additional data fees.
Jiang Hao has a certain talent in singing, Tong Guò feels that he has made a lot of progress after self-study, out of the idea of being a teenager eager to become famous, he Tong Guò Xiaoya rented the cheapest one-star live broadcast room on the Centaur Sub Channel of the Asian Star Entertainment Channel, the one-star live broadcast room is a miniature virtual space, this is a solidified scene, inside is a small stage, there are a thousand seats below, and the formation is very simple. Of course, he can also pay for the rearrangement of the scene.
On this small stage, he sang hard, eager to achieve his dream of becoming famous in one fell swoop.
Of course, as a teenager who has just entered the society, he doesn't know how much bitterness and insider information there is behind the success of each star, and this kind of self-confidence supports him to work hard towards his ideals.
But his dream of stardom did not get a good start, because there was no publicity, and he was often faced with an empty scene. In addition, his singing skills are very rough, his own experience is shallow and he has never seen the world, and he is full of appearances on the live broadcast stage in the virtual space.
But he was not discouraged, he still worked hard to persevere, he stubbornly believed that as long as there was a pay, he could achieve success, even if the live broadcast lasted for a whole month, the number of people who came to watch the live broadcast room was still in single digits, and the number of fans was not one.
The beginning of this failure is really a big blow to a teenager who has just entered society.
But he did not lose faith and remained committed to his pursuit.
Perhaps moved by his sincerity and perseverance, the number of viewers in the second month finally broke through the single digits, and there were even two or three whiteboard fans, whiteboard fans are equivalent to Cheng Chen's previous life micro * Boli likes and attention, and then it is not an egg, because whiteboard fans don't have to spend money.
But Jiang Hao is still optimistic, firmly believing that he will succeed one day, he believes that his expression will get better and better, and there will be more and more fans who appreciate him.
And he also sent artist signing applications to several influential media companies in the Twin Cities, eager to meet the nobles and Bole who appreciated him.
It's a pity that most of these application letters did not receive any response, and the only two replies were all rejected without discussion.
What's even more tragic is that today the Star Network Live Channel Management Department also sent a notice, requiring him to meet the average number of viewers per day of 300 people in the third month, otherwise he will permanently stop using his live broadcast room.
Of course, all this information, whether it succeeds or fails, has nothing to do with Jiang Hao himself.
Because the owner of this body has been replaced by another person, Cheng Chen, who has inexplicably crossed over from the earth in the 21st century.
After understanding this, Cheng Chen was completely shocked by Jiang Hao's persistent pursuit of his dreams.
Cheng Chen looked up at the small window in the bedroom, thinking of his aging parents, his heart ached and burst into tears. After a long time, he finally decided to let go of the burden of the past, and strive to live a wonderful life in this time and space, so that the previous life can be regarded as a dream.
He cheered up and said in his heart, "Then, I will be Jiang Hao in the future, let me continue your footsteps and pursue your star dream!" ”
