Chapter 60

At around nine in the evening, the entire day's shooting schedule finally came to an end. Although Li Zhengxi felt a bit tired, he was mostly excited.

This was the first time he truly felt the ease and freedom of acting, whether it was his movements, expressions, or lines, even his eyes conveyed the emotions so vividly. As a result, Yoon Seok-ho praised him many times today, and the crew members also seemed more relaxed during the shooting.

After all, as a big shot in the production, yet a newcomer actor, everyone was worried that if he performed poorly, it could lead to the entire crew suffering the consequences.

Standing in the bathroom, he turned on the shower, and as the cold water poured down, Li Zhengxi's mind was still buzzing with excitement. He even performed in front of the mirror, completely in love with himself. When he saw the expression he wanted in the mirror, he grinned foolishly.

This state continued until he came out of the bathroom, turned on his computer, and finally calmed down a bit. Then he began to prepare to implement his plan to deal with the "crash-level task."

The first stage of the crash-level task triggered by Won Bin's injured foot was—before the premiere of "Autumn in My Heart," the player must become the most popular member of the cast. If the task failed, the show would be destroyed.

In other words, although the shooting of "Autumn in My Heart" was no longer a problem, if he did not complete the first stage of the task, the show would still be doomed even if it was completed. Therefore, during the shooting days, he had to boost his popularity.

The most popular member, not just one of them, was not an easy task, especially since he was a supporting actor. Fortunately, even Song Seung-hyun, who had been in the industry for several years, was not particularly famous.

Of course, even if Song Seung-hyun was not famous, using the usual promotional methods like appearing on TV, magazines, and advertisements would not give him much of a chance, let alone surpass Song Seung-hyun in popularity.

Therefore, Li Zhengxi's final plan was to promote himself both online and offline. His online popularity was already much higher than Song Seung-hyun's, but it was still not enough. So, he decided to start implementing his plan from today.

He turned on his computer, went online, and opened the new webpage he had created, no longer just posting on the Naver and Yahoo forums. This was a preparation he had made for promoting the movie "My Sassy Girl," but it turned out to be useful now.

At first, he uploaded the second side story of "My Sassy Girl." He had already uploaded one a month ago to maintain the movie's popularity. Now, it provided a better foundation for his plan.

In the side stories, most of the content was about his and Kim Tae-hee's interactions after they grew up, which were especially precious to him, having lived two lives.

These stories were also loved by his fans. When he uploaded the second side story, the fan club members were thrilled.

"Here it is, here it is, Zhengxi oppa has posted a new side story!"

"Wow, Myung-hee unnie really needs Zhengxi oppa's dominance to keep her in line, okay, it's temporary, but in the next one, he will definitely suffer again, it's fate!"

"Zhengxi oppa, what about Myung-hee unnie's real name...?"

For a moment, the webpage was flooded with discussions, but soon, everyone was drawn to another post Li Zhengxi had made— "The movie 'My Sassy Girl' is in preparation and will be released next summer. I hope everyone will watch it. But before that, I want to ask everyone to support another work of mine, which I have been busy with this year, the KBS drama 'Autumn in My Heart.' Yes, it's also about love..."

When everyone read this, there was another uproar. "Wow, oppa, what kind of love story is this? Will it be as exciting as 'My Sassy Girl'?"

"Zhengxi oppa, what do you do? You sound like a TV writer or something..."

"Oppa, if you don't give us Myung-hee unnie's name, we won't support you. How about giving us your name instead...?"

Then, in the pinned posts, everyone quickly saw another new pinned post by Li Zhengxi, and the excitement grew even more.

The post did not disappoint; it even thrilled everyone. It contained many photos, and next to the photos, there were some words from Li Zhengxi.

"Um, as 'Seon-mi' said, I am indeed the main writer of 'Autumn in My Heart,' but you probably didn't expect that I have also become one of the actors in the drama.

Isn't that amazing? Yes, I feel the same way. Since I returned from abroad last Christmas, the things that have happened to me, if written down, would be incredibly exciting, not at all less exciting than 'My Sassy Girl.' Uh, you wouldn't be able to guess what I did before, but I will tell you slowly. For now, I can tell you that in these stills from the drama, I am in them.

I know you must be沸腾了, so here's another piece of good news: the first, the hundredth, the thousandth, the ten-thousandth, and so on, to find the lucky person who spots me in the photos, I will invite them to the premiere of 'My Sassy Girl'... well, the game starts now, I will announce the results next week, fight!"

There were over a dozen stills, each with several people, such as him and Song Seung-hyun, Son Ye-jin, the hotel switchboard staff, and young Moon Geun-young, Kim Hyung-jun, and others, totaling several dozen people.

Of course, even so, everyone would easily find him, but Li Zhengxi's goal was achieved. When everyone was enthusiastic about this, and very focused on it, when he announced the results, they would remember him immediately, with a deep impression. Plus, he was not unattractive, and with the boost from "My Sassy Girl," he would definitely be very popular.

This was the first step of his plan.

"Wow, Zhengxi oppa, is this real? You're not kidding, right? You actually posted your own photos?"

"Zhengxi oppa, are you the old man? Or the old lady? Or are you actually the little kid? Wow, that would be a disappointment..."

"Zhengxi oppa, you said you came back from abroad, so is Myung-hee unnie a foreigner? And, I really want to hear the amazing things that happened to you now, but are they really that amazing, hehe!"

Seeing the lively scene on his webpage and in the fan club, Li Zhengxi smiled. This was the effect he wanted. For today, he had achieved his goal.

He logged out of the webpage, turned off the computer, and was about to open the Devil Entertainment System in his mind when a notification popped up.

Li Zhengxi was taken aback, wondering what could be happening now, as he hadn't done anything wrong. But when he saw the notification, he grinned.

"Respected player, hello. Due to the influence of your online popularity, the system specially rewards you with 3 achievement points, 1 luck point, and +2 prestige!"

Wow, Li Zhengxi excitedly waved his fist. This was finally here. All the efforts he had put into the internet over the past half year were not in vain. More importantly, the system's reward now clearly proved that his plan was effective...!

PS: Request all support! Yes, I also wish everyone a pleasant weekend!
