Internet moguls are being held hostage by the entertainment system!

Chapter 60 The Upgraded System
Inside the hotel restaurant, Chen Xiu and his four companions sat around the table, finishing their unfinished dinner.

Among them, Wei Feng, Xiong Ben, Reba, and Xiao Lin had different expressions, while Chen Xiu seemed a little absent-minded.

The table full of delicious food was unappealing to Chen Xiu.

He is currently focusing his energy on the upgraded system and is deep in thought about the new tasks and rewards.

[The fame-building mission has been successfully completed, and the system upgrade has been successful. New missions are now being issued.]

[Career Establishment Tasks: 1. Please lead the production of a film and ensure its successful release. 2. Please star as the male lead in a television series.]

[Mission Time Limit: 1 year!]

[Rewards for completing the mission: 1. Li Shimin's life experiences before ascending the throne. 2. A 10% increase in positive attributes such as luck, charm, and charisma.]

[Task Rejection: System Unbinding!]

This time, there was no punishment.

The reward offered...tsk tsk," Chen Xiu thought to himself, pressing his eyebrows down: very tempting!
Experiencing Li Shimin's life firsthand would be incredibly exciting!
The other person's experience contains the glory, difficulties, trials and tribulations, and wisdom they have endured in half a lifetime... For Chen Xiu, who is financially independent, this is a huge asset.

Furthermore, if he wanted to create a work about Li Shimin...

What help can compare to personally experiencing the first half of someone's life?
No matter how good the screenwriter, director, or actor, they can never compare to what the person involved has experienced.

Before the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Li Shimin's life can be summarized by the tough battles he fought: the Battle of Qianshuiyuan, where he captured Xue Rengao alive; the Battle of Baibi, where he pursued Song Jingang for seven days and seven nights and defeated him in one battle; and the Battle of Hulao Pass, where three thousand Xuanjia soldiers defeated one hundred thousand, capturing two kings in one battle and completely eliminating the warlords at the end of the Sui Dynasty!
All of them were major battles to save the Tang Dynasty or to establish its foundation!

Furthermore, he also enjoyed personally scouting enemy positions. If discovered by the enemy, he would personally cover the rear so that his men could escape first.

This kind of extreme individual heroism, when portrayed in film and television works, is just too cool!
If these were filmed to the standards of Game of Thrones, wouldn't it be better than that small-eyed LTP-starring drama, My Love from the Star?
Chen Xiu has always had absolute confidence in the cultural heritage of her country.

If he wants to make a TV series, he doesn't need to copy those famous foreign TV series; he can create new and better ones!

Korean dramas like "Dark Glory" and "Squid Game" have too much of a local flavor, with constant use of vulgar language. The essence of their culture is hard to cut; if you were to recreate it exactly as it is, domestic audiences would probably think you're Korean…

"Our own stuff is still the best. With the system in hand, Tencent backing us, and Douyin holding the future of the internet, Chen Xiu doesn't think his TV series will fail!"
After analyzing the first reward given by the system, Chen Xiu turned her attention to the second reward.

Your personal luck, charm, charisma, and other positive qualities will increase by 10%.

This reward, while different in content from the rewards given in the previous two missions, is similar in nature.

Having already fully experienced the rewards from the previous two rounds, Chen Xiu was also looking forward to this reward.

If the system had just thrown out these intangible rewards from the beginning, Chen Xiu wouldn't have felt much about them, since he didn't really understand them anyway.

You're saying my abilities will become stronger? Well, I wasn't weak to begin with!

As for stronger, how would I know how much stronger?

Having no concept of it means not understanding the significance of the reward.

However, after experiencing the physical enhancement twice, Chen Xiu quickly established her concept.

This feeling is so wonderful; once you've experienced it, you can never go back to the way things were before.

Then, with a 10% increase in positive temperament, Chen Xiu felt that this reward looked pretty good, and he estimated that its future effects would not disappoint him.

After reviewing the rewards, go back and look at the tasks.

To lead the film production, the existing script for "Detective Chinatown" is sufficient. Chen Xiu only needs to organize a meeting, find distributors and theater chains, assemble a team, and then act as producer to film it. Another option is to star in a TV series…

Chen Xiu himself isn't really passionate about acting, but he's willing to compromise for the sake of winning an award.

Aside from these positive rewards and tasks, the most surprising feature is the last one: [Refuse the task: System unbind!]

The system unbinding is essentially a backdoor, meaning that Chen Xiu will no longer need to play this game in the future.

The task has a time limit of one year, which is enough.

Overall, the system upgrade represents a significant improvement...

After clearing her mind, Chen Xiu put down her chopsticks and stood up to look at Wei Feng and Xiong Ben.

"I'm going back to my room first. You two can pay the bill later. The money and the red envelope have already been transferred."

"Yes, boss!" *2
After giving instructions to his own people, Chen Xiu went to Reba and Xiaolin and said, "I'm sorry, I thought tonight would be a pleasant experience, but this happened."

"Brother Xiu, this has nothing to do with you. It's all because that guy at the bar is so annoying!"

"Yeah! Yeah! Brother Chen Xiu, I thought what you said just now was super cool... Hey! Sister Ba, why are you pulling me?"

Watching the two playfully bicker, Chen Xiu smiled slightly, politely apologized, and then turned and walked towards the elevator.

After he left, Xiaolin, who was still hungry, quickly sat down and moved closer to Wei Feng and Xiong Ben, whom she had already become familiar with.

"Wei Feng, Da Xiong, what's the deal with Chen Xiu saying he'd transfer money and give you red envelopes?"

"Every time it's our turn to pay, the boss gives us double the money back. Last time it was Big Bear who paid, this time it's my turn. As for the red envelope..."

Wei Feng paused for a moment, then beckoned her to come closer, and Xiao Lin did as he asked.

“Our boss always gives us red envelopes on holidays, when he’s on business trips, or when he’s in a good mood, and he’s never stingy with money.”

"Wow, I'm so envious."

Xiaolin pouted, her eyes filled with envy and jealousy.

Turning to look at the hot bar, Xiaolin quickly adjusted her mindset. Although her bartender wasn't as rich as Chen Xiu, she was quite generous and a very good person. She was already much better than her peers.

Just as Xiaolin was thinking about when her favorite barista would become famous and then lead her to live the life of Wei Feng and Xiong Ben, Reba suddenly stood up from her seat.

"Xiaolin, you continue eating. I just remembered something and need to go back to my room to take care of it."

"Sister Ba, shall I come and help you?"

"No need, no need! I can only handle this myself. You just eat your meal here, then go back to your room and get some sleep. Don't wake me up tomorrow morning, understand?"

Reba pulled Xiaolin aside and said righteously.

Before Xiaolin could react, Wei Feng burst out laughing: "Heh, Sister Reba, I'll take good care of Xiaolin, you can go without worry!"

"Oh, thank you."

From Wei Feng's gaze, Dilraba knew that her thoughts had probably been seen through, but so what? Who cares!
People still need to learn to take the initiative!
Thinking of this, Dilraba picked up her bag and walked towards the elevator.
