Ding!
As for supplementing and learning new knowledge, Zhang Ye knew that it was clearly not enough. He did not really expect to rely on just a few books to be able to do anything he wanted. Knowledge such as words and videos were always more passive. It was not as if just by reading a few books and familiarizing yourself with them, you would be able to master the relevant professions. It was not that amazing. Otherwise, why would he need so many teachers? Therefore, this knowledge and videos were only a means for Zhang Ye to enrich himself and improve himself. He did not expect to use them very soon. If he wanted to count on it, it would be more practical to use the lottery draw. The existence of the game ring was the most direct and powerful help to Zhang Ye. This was his greatest trump card.
A few days ago, during the college entrance examination question setting period, Zhang Ye had spent about half of the Reputation Points he had earned from the first two or three episodes of The Voice in his free time to increase his understanding of this world and the absorption of relevant professional knowledge. For example, social science books, this world's novels, foreign history, foreign languages, and all sorts of other subjects that he had dabbled in. He used the Memory Search Capsules to memorize all of them in his mind, turning the words, images, and sounds into his own. The scope of knowledge in his mind had greatly increased and his understanding of this world was also becoming more and more complete. Although it was still not 100% complete, at least Zhang Ye would not reveal that he was from another world because of some of the most basic common sense questions — that was enough. His biggest flaw had been slowly made up for by him.
One round!
The slot machine lit up and the image started to move!
Instead, he reached out and tapped on Lottery Draw (1), which was the earliest version of the game ring's Lottery Draw System. Although this Lottery Draw System was old and could no longer keep up with Zhang Ye's progress, it was not absolute. The old Lottery Draw System also had items like the "Difficulty Adjustment Die" that were cheap and overpowered. The crux of the problem was that the old Lottery Draw System had a very low error rate and a very low chance of getting an empty chest. It was different from the new Lottery Draw System where there was a 50% chance of getting an empty chest even without the use of the Lucky Halo. Hence, the price-to-performance ratio was extremely high. Zhang Ye had no intention of making the old Lottery Draw System obsolete. He just wanted to try his luck here today.
Midnight.
Now that The Voice had ended, Zhang Ye still had not thought of his next show, nor was he thinking about what he should do next. Naturally, it would be great if he had two direction-related skills to rely on. Even if Zhang Ye were to come across a very difficult show in the future, he would still dare to take over the job of the executive director. A hundred skill books for each of the Fundamentals of Directing and Cinematography? Coupled with his experience and the original program from his previous world, Zhang Ye believed that he would not be too far off from any of the professional directors who had just started their careers. This gave him even more confidence and capital in the future. After all, how important was the position of executive director in a program? If Zhang Ye could hold it in his hands, he would definitely not give it to anyone else. Moreover, this kind of experience book could be used even when filming TV series and movies in the future!
Another 10 million Reputation Points were spent just like that!

After a long time, he suddenly saw a Special Class pattern flash by!
[Photography Skill Experience Book] 101.
The needle stopped. It was still in the Skills Category region!
The night was silent. Almost every household was asleep.
So as long as he could get the Special Category, Zhang Ye would definitely not choose the other categories. Unfortunately, this was not something he could choose and could only try his luck!
"Special Category!"
This time, it was the same as the previous time. Zhang Ye still could not bear to activate the Lucky Halo (Upgraded) as it was too costly in terms of Reputation Points. A second of activation would cost 100,000 Reputation Points, so using it for a minute would cost 6 million Reputation Points. That was about the same as using the Lottery Draw (Two) for the 10 million Reputation Points, so he really could not bear to use it!
His short-term goal had been exceeded, so he was in a very good mood.
Heh!
Let's give it a try first.
The needle spun quickly, from fast to slow!
As for why the Mathematical Conjecture did not bring as much popularity points to Zhang Ye in real life as The Voice did, it was very easy to understand. Dale's Conjecture had been solved and many people knew about it and were shocked by it. However, Zhang Ye was still a newcomer to the mathematics world after all. Besides, mathematics was not considered to be part of the entertainment industry, or rather, it was not something that the mainstream entertainment industry or the people were interested in and passionate about. This was also the reason why the Mathematical Conjecture did not bring as much Reputation Points to Zhang Ye as The Voice did. But overall, the Reputation Points gained from the game ring were definitely proportional to Zhang Ye's popularity points in the real world. The only difference was that it depended on the situation.
Finally, the needle stopped and pointed at the Skills Category region.
Foundation of Directing? Wasn't that a compulsory course in the Directing Department?
It was too little!
Seeing that the compass had started spinning, Zhang Ye immediately pressed the Additional Stakes button and added 99 additional stakes. Including the base number, it was equivalent to a total of 100 Reputation Points. He had spent a total of 10 million Reputation Points!
He could understand that the main reason was that the Reputation Points gained from solving the Mathematical Conjecture was a little too much, causing his expectations to be too high. In fact, if he thought about it carefully, the small portion of the Reputation Points gained from The Voice and the college entrance examination had already been used up by him. Besides, no matter how high the viewership ratings of The Voice were, due to the many objective factors of this world, it would only average a little over 2%. It would definitely not be able to compare to the sensation and coverage of solving the Mathematical Conjecture. After all, Dale's Conjecture was such a big problem that only a small portion of the world's population would pay attention to it, so it was not surprising that his Reputation Points would increase by a lot!
Additional Stakes of 100!
Zhang Ye was overjoyed when he saw this. He thought to himself that this was really strange. Photography Skills? This should also be a part of the Directing Department's curriculum. Today, he had won all the skill books related to directing, and they were all quite useful to Zhang Ye. Although he was currently the executive director of The Voice, everyone knew that Zhang Ye was not a professional director. He could only be said to have learned it halfway and was just copying it. Firstly, with the original version of The Voice from his previous world, Zhang Ye would not make any major mistakes. Secondly, a talent show like The Voice did not have high technical requirements for an executive director. This was not a television series, nor was it a movie, so it was much simpler.
The lottery draw ended!
Five rounds!
He had more than 160 million Reputation Points left. Zhang Ye immediately clicked on the purchase button!
Skills Category...
It had been a long time since he had played the lottery draw and his hands were itching for it!
100,000 Reputation Points were deducted.
10 million Reputation Points instantly disappeared!
Empty...
No matter how the icon on the slot machine changed, Zhang Ye was still shouting the same thing in his mind — "Special Category." However, the probability of the Special Category appearing in the new lottery draw system was really too low. It was even lower than Lottery Draw (One). In any case, he did not know if it was because Zhang Ye's eyesight was bad, but after looking at the slot machine's icon for half a minute, Zhang Ye still did not see the Special Category icon appear even once!
Begin!
Consumption Category...
Zhang Ye was at his parents' house checking on his recent gains in popularity. He also summarized and thought about his work for the past two to three months. Overall, he was quite satisfied with it. At least compared to the progress at the beginning of the year, it was clearly much faster. His popularity score had also increased by several folds and could not be compared to before. Other celebrities might have slowed down and hit a bottleneck when they reached the B-list rankings, but Zhang Ye was the exact opposite. He felt like he had just started and had just entered the peak of his career.
"Let's do the Special Category!"
After catching his breath, Zhang Ye opened up the lottery draw interface again. After a moment of hesitation, his eyes fell on the Lottery Draw (Two) option. His gaze gradually became determined as he reached out and clicked on the new lottery draw system. He was of course looking forward to this the most. After all, even though Lottery Draw (Two) was extremely risky and he had wasted a lot of Reputation Points on it, the quality of the items in Lottery Draw (Two) was something that Lottery Draw (One) could not compare to!
Let's see how many Reputation Points I've earned!
Well, after concluding everything, it was time for the lottery draw.
Stats Category...
Come on, it's time for the lottery draw!
This number was a little lower than what Zhang Ye had expected. He felt that it was a little low, but overall, it was still acceptable.
Zhang Ye kept muttering to himself.
A total of 201 Skill Experience Books had been used by Zhang Ye!
Let's try it out a little first!
That's right! Not to mention winning, it was difficult for him to even see it. Just talk about the probability!
Zhang Ye was not very confident. He stared straight at the slot machine that was about to stop, hoping for a miracle to happen!
A hundred Golden Treasure Chests (Small) were opened. Zhang Ye took a deep breath and lowered his head to open the Treasure Chests. An item appeared!
Empty...
Zhang Ye blinked a few times. This Skill Experience Book had given him a little surprise. At least, it was not much worse than what he had expected. It looked like his luck today was pretty good.
[Basic Directing Skill Experience Book] 100.
Looking at the compass, Zhang Ye once again screamed in his mind. Naturally, he was hoping to get a Special Category item. Even if the Special Category items from the old system were just ordinary purchases and could not be compared to the "upgraded" version of the new lottery draw system, it was still a great help. An item that could be used or bought without restrictions at any time and place as long as he had enough Reputation Points would be much better than an item that he might not be able to win for the rest of his life after using it once. Only an item like the "Lucky Draw" that he had in his inventory could compare to it. But then again, the "Lucky Draw" should also have an unlimited number of purchases. If he could get the Special Category item, wouldn't that be even better?
183.82 million!
Time to eat!
Empty...
So, without any hesitation, Zhang Ye clicked on Lottery Draw (One)!
Skills Category...
Zhang Ye was already prepared to go all out. He immediately activated the game ring on his left pinky finger and let the virtual screen pop up. Immediately, a string of numbers appeared on it.
