The screenshot content is as follows.
"In the drama 'Endless Food Bag', Zhao Zhengrong and Li Xiaoxiao barely passed. It's understandable. Chu Fan's performance was terrible, and the others were not worth mentioning. It was all carried by the newcomer Zhang Guangmu!"
"Although these words are impolite, the fact is indeed true. The 'Newcomers Are Monsters' series can be added to the collection."
"Time really flies. I still remember the greenness of Boss Zhao when he first debuted. In the blink of an eye, he has grown so big."
"Zhao Zhengrong was also a monster back then. Now... Hmm, he's even more awesome now. The title 'Newcomer Crusher', do you think it's easy to get?"
"Zhang Guangmu must have offended someone and had his popularity suppressed. As a newcomer, compilations of his few highlight moments have already been made into short videos. How can the discussion be so low?"
"It's not low anymore, not low at all. 'Princess of Allusions' was even worse than him when she first debuted."
"Zhang Guangmu's current popularity is inseparable from the final scene of 'Endless Food Bag'!"
"He voluntarily sacrificed himself, propped up the collapsing mansion, and turned the tide from the brink of disaster, fundamentally crushing the Hunger Apocalypse. It gave me goosebumps!"
"Is this a doomsday drama? When I watched until the end, I realized it was clearly 'Utopia'!"
"Is there really such a Saint in the world? I always thought the Saints mentioned in textbooks were fabricated..."
"'Everyone, in the future, will be full.' -- The sentence Zhang Guangmu said before jumping into the Endless Food Bag. It was very simple, yet it made my heart surge and my scalp tingle. I don't know how to describe it."
"Suddenly I feel like I'm blessed and don't know it..."
"No one mentioned the scene where he was tortured? The full version of 'Endless Food Bag' edited in the cause and effect. It was touching and idiotic, with tear-jerking and laugh-out-loud moments. Really good!"
"Zhang Guangmu is destined for godhood with just this one drama!"
"When Zhang Guangmu was acting with Zhao Zhengrong, that line, 'I want to die'... I suspect he might have meant it sincerely. This person might genuinely have some self-destructive tendencies."
"Based on past experience, the youth's subconscious fluctuations are too large. Zhang Guangmu has reached his peak upon debut. It's estimated that his condition will continue to decline afterwards."
"Life is just like this, ups and downs, downs, downs, downs... You'll get used to it."
"I suggest not mentioning the name 'Zhang Guangmu' to avoid attracting haters too early! What he needs most now is to settle down and produce more excellent works! Those who truly like him, let's use 'Second Generation of Changhe' as a replacement from now on!"
"Changhe Guangmu, kindness will be repaid!"
"I am A Mu's Shou Mu Ren. I, for the Second Generation of Changhe, swear this oath: I will never reveal his real name until the time is right!"
"Add me! I just finished watching 'Endless Food Bag'. Although I'm late, I also want to be a [Shou Mu Ren]!"
After reading the screenshots, Zhang Guangmu was stunned.
Damn it, why is this happening?
The people who like me don't want me to become famous.
And, everyone was indeed well-intentioned, not maliciously suppressing him.
This was a bit awkward.
Zhang Guangmu suddenly felt that he might need to go undercover in his own fan group. Using the guise of a veteran fan, he could subtly guide them within the fan club to organize more reputation-building activities like a normal fan club.
Under the iron fist of the Xuanlong Empire, no one could soar to fame overnight. No matter how powerful a Subconscious Actor was, they had to proceed step by step, laying a solid foundation, and forging their own brilliance through each role.
This was by no means the 21st century where traffic was king. In front of the Empire's AI and big data, everyone was equal. Everything had to speak for itself through the quality and quantity of work, and the industry was fiercely competitive.
However...
Zhang Guangmu had never dared to hope that he could immediately defy the Empire's rules and become famous with one project, being sought after by everyone. Was it too much to ask for a slightly higher frequency of accepting roles?
His fans weren't helping their idol gain fame, but were actively suppressing his popularity instead...
Could this be true love?
Although Zhang Guangmu hadn't fantasized about becoming an overnight sensation with one drama, surpassing all seniors with two, and achieving the status of Subconscious Film Emperor with three, wasn't his career development path going somewhat awry?
Most importantly...
Were they serious about the title "[Shou Mu Ren]"?
Were his own fans like this?
Even through the screen, Zhang Guangmu could feel a wave of idiocy washing over him.
"Are they the normal ones? Am I the one who's not right?"
Just as Zhang Guangmu was starting to doubt life, he suddenly felt a sense of premonition.
This familiar feeling was exactly the same as when he gained Ability Points while filming "Endless Food Bag"...
So there was no mistake!
New Available Ability Points were about to be credited!
Zhang Guangmu knew that the "Book of Acting" was slow to react and had a delay.
He quickly rolled out of bed and randomly pulled an Imperial Middle School Mathematics Textbook from the bookshelf, opening it to the title page.
The text within the pages rapidly rearranged themselves in Zhang Guangmu's vision, weaving into a picture emitting a Crimson Light.
--A pure white plastic bag was spewing out endless food, and hungry people surrounded the bag, frantically snatching food. In the clear blue sky, clouds drifted by, seemingly outlining the peaceful smile of a youth.
Although the face outlined by the clouds was exactly the same as Zhang Guangmu's, it carried a subtle otherworldly aura, as if imbued with a touch of divinity.
This clearly depicted the final scene of Zhang Guangmu in "Endless Food Bag."
Although Zhang Guangmu had no experience of his soul leaving his body to fly into the sky and transform into a cloud to showcase his acting skills, art originates from life and surpasses it.
He felt that the painting was actually quite good and very lifelike.
Zhang Guangmu noticed that the crimson light on the scroll gradually converged, forming the number 1.
At the same time, two lines of text appeared on the [Hunger's End Diagram].
[Though the bones of a hero may decay, they shame the heroes of the world.]
[The Devotee you played has driven the Director to madness. Ability Points +1.]
The second line of text gradually faded and disappeared without a trace, leaving only a poem that seemed like a critique.
Even so, Zhang Guangmu recited the sentence in time and silently compared it with the previous [Zhang Guangmu Torture Scene] in his mind, repeatedly pondering it.
He keenly captured some key points and summarized some experiences.
Last time, it was the Audience's emotion that earned him one usable ability point.
This time, it was the Director's inspiration that earned him one ability point.
So...
Perhaps in the reward judgment mechanism of the "Book of Acting," while "memorable scenes" are important, "people" are also a key factor!
Both are indispensable elements!
Considering that Qian Yiyuan had contributed a usable ability point to him, Zhang Guangmu decided to temporarily forgive that idiot Director.
In a flash of thought, the [Hunger's Doomsday End Diagram] was embedded on the third page of the "Book of Acting."
Zhang Guangmu fell into contemplation.
Transforming into a little hamster to hoard "usable ability points" was not impossible.
After all, as a subconscious actor, he sometimes encountered unexpected situations beyond his ability scope.
When encountering such situations, retaining some points and improving on the spot to deal with them was also a good choice.
However, after careful consideration, Zhang Guangmu finally decided to use the usable ability point that he hadn't even warmed up yet.
A rookie must have the awareness of a rookie.
Zhang Guangmu believed that as a newly promoted one-star subconscious actor, he needed to become strong quickly at this stage!
"Add it directly to Acting Skill!"
This was his bread and butter, and it had to be prioritized.
As a newcomer Subconscious Actor who had just debuted, Zhang Guangmu wasn't aiming too high.
He was very practical, not expecting to immediately reach the level where a single glance could convey his thoughts or a mere silhouette could tell a story. At the very least, he wanted to minimize his own flaws.
For now, as long as he didn't crack up from the Silly Audience or make an inappropriate, strange expression at a Crucial Moment, that would be enough!
When using the Book of Acting to Add Points or check his own abilities, because of the Bookworm Character Setting as cover, others couldn't see the contents of the Book of Acting, so he didn't need to worry too much for the time being.
The easiest time to expose special abilities was when he was getting free intel from the Audience!
If his rating could reach 2, his Acting Skill should be sufficient for now.
Zhang Guangmu rummaged through his belongings and found a Water Pen. He lightly crossed out the number 1 next to Acting Skill on his Personal Ability Panel and casually changed it to 2.
Thus, his ability panel changed again.
[Zhang Guangmu]
[Acting Skill 2]
[Imperial Body Forging Technique 1]
[Firearms Shooting 1]
At the same time, Zhang Guangmu felt a flood of acting-related knowledge appear in his mind. The fine muscles in his face became more flexible, and his limbs felt as if they had been lubricated, giving him a feeling of being "more obedient."
This was what ordinary people had to diligently study acting for twenty years to achieve: Acting Skill 2!
When he wanted to cry, he could immediately burst into tears, making people's hearts ache.
When he wanted to laugh, he could immediately laugh radiantly, making people feel as if they were basking in a spring breeze.
In addition to this...
Just as Zhang Guangmu had predicted, his expression management ability had greatly improved, and his self-control had become much stronger!
"From now on, I am a professionally trained person."
"No matter how funny something is, if I don't want to laugh, I absolutely will not laugh out loud!"
Zhang Guangmu grinned and burst out laughing heartily.
He had consumed one Usable Ability Point and saved himself a full ten years of hard work!
It felt incredibly awesome!
The next moment, the members of the Endless Food Bucket Group easily shattered Zhang Guangmu's pure joy.
