Good heavens, after reading this golden finger, Ding Yun inexplicably felt like she hadn't brought a golden finger or a cheat, but a supervisor to urge her on.
Is loving work and being dedicated what a golden finger is supposed to do?
Shouldn't the principle of a golden finger be unearned gains? Why would it involve equivalent exchange?
What is this nonsense about loving work and being dedicated?
It's already generous of her not to slack off.
Of course, while she was complaining, she still had to explore the specific situation of the golden finger. After so many times, Ding Yun had some experience in exploring golden fingers.
Moreover, this golden finger also had a guidance mode.
So, in no time, Ding Yun figured out the situation of the Love of Work and Dedication System. This system was divided into two parts: one was Love of Work, and the other was Dedication.
As the name suggested, Love of Work referred to the host's degree of liking for her current profession, while Dedication referred to the host's seriousness towards her work and others' evaluations.
Ding Yun herself neither liked nor disliked this profession and showed no obvious inclination.
Therefore, her Love of Work score was zero.
Her Dedication score was negative due to inheriting the original body's issues like fans turning against her and a collapsed persona.
Of course, the system wouldn't be so trashy as to only display Love of Work and Dedication scores with no other functions. The magnitude of these two values was very important in the system because it related to the improvement of various skills.
The higher the Love of Work score, the faster the skill improvement. For example, if the Love of Work score was ten, her speed in learning singing techniques and improving her singing skill would double. If the Love of Work score reached the maximum of one hundred, the speed would increase tenfold.
In terms of game values.
It meant that when Ding Yun's Love of Work reached one hundred, each practice session would gain ten times the experience points, allowing her to level up faster.
And improve her skill level more quickly.
Dedication, on the other hand, directly related to talent.
When this value was zero, the host had whatever talent she naturally possessed. When this value was negative, the host's talent would be reduced to some extent. When it was positive, it would be enhanced.
For example, if Ding Yun's singing talent was ten, and she gained ten experience points per practice, but if her Dedication score was negative, she would only get eight or even seven experience points per practice. The higher the negative value, the lower the experience. This could also affect the Love of Work bonus.
If her Love of Work was positive one hundred and her Dedication was negative twenty, assuming her normal talent allowed her to gain ten experience points per practice, then after the system binding, the calculation formula would be ten times ten, multiplied by eighty percent, resulting in eighty experience points.
This was not the biggest impact. The biggest impact was that if the negative value was too high, she might eventually reach a point where no matter how much she practiced, her skills could not be upgraded.
Because if the talent was too low.
Limited ability was a reasonable thing.
Reaching a certain level and being unable to break through was also reasonable.
After all, many people knew that with normal intelligence, passing an exam or even excelling only required effort and seriousness, but achieving a perfect score depended on talent. Without talent, no amount of effort would be enough.
Some people acted their whole lives, and their acting skills were still mediocre. Could it be said that they didn't try? No, it could only be said that they weren't cut out for it. Effort could only make them competent, their skills not too bad, but it couldn't make them legendary.
The Dedication value being excessively negative.
Talent was reduced, naturally weakening the skill cap.
Apart from this, the system had no other functions. It was quite simple and straightforward, purely encouraging the host to love work and be dedicated.
Only by loving work and being dedicated could one enjoy all the benefits.
"The system seems okay, no major problems, and it's not going to screw me over. But in my current state, no work will come looking for me, right?
Most importantly, there's no way to whitewash this!
While the original body's actions and fabricated persona weren't entirely her own intention, they weren't falsely accused either. It wasn't pure to begin with, so how could it be whitewashed? Not to mention those troublesome family members.
Forget it, I'll go to the hospital first!"
After understanding the system's function and knowing that it couldn't help her much for the time being, Ding Yun immediately decided that she had to get her body in order first.
A good body was necessary to do anything else.
However, before going to the hospital, she first sorted out the original body's accounts and assets based on her memories, transferred the little money she had left to one account, and then took a taxi to the hospital.
It couldn't be helped. The original body's income couldn't compare to top stars, and the company took ninety percent. Plus, her family were all burdens, constantly asking for money every month. How much money could she save?
Not to mention the brand that she previously promoted.
They had also terminated her contract and sued her for damages.
So, the original body's current assets, while not penniless, were certainly less than thirty thousand yuan.
To avoid being unable to afford examinations and treatments at the hospital with only a few hundred yuan in her card, Ding Yun had to transfer all the money from the original body's cards into one.
Just in case she couldn't pay for it later and felt awkward.
Ding Yun encountered no difficulties on the way to the hospital. Even without a mask, no one recognized her as she walked. A third or fourth-tier celebrity who hadn't appeared much recently, and wasn't wearing makeup or doing anything significant, wouldn't be recognized by so many people.
She successfully arrived at the hospital.
And then successfully underwent a series of examinations.
The results could only be described as worth the examination fee. In fact, compared to someone in good health, it could be considered a gain.
A large number of major and minor illnesses and problems were discovered!
Bile reflux gastritis, along with moderate stomach ulcers, anemia, six teeth showing a certain degree of loosening due to corrosion from stomach acid from frequent vomiting, and the enamel of other teeth were more or less damaged.
Hair loss, insomnia, impaired liver function.
Occasional palpitations, slightly elevated protein, and severe sub-health condition due to chronic lack of sleep.
These were the more obvious problems. Other data points being slightly higher or lower than normal were too numerous to mention; there wasn't a single data point that was perfectly standard.
After reviewing the results, the doctor specifically asked Ding Yun for her age.
Then he shook his head.
