Title: I Don’t Want to Be the Boss
Genre: Sports Fiction, Fantasy, Progression, System
Dive into the electrifying world of “I Don’t Want to Be the Boss,” a heart-pounding sports fantasy novel that will captivate fans of basketball, progression stories, and thrilling second-chance adventures.
Meet Sun Ce, a 27-year-old down-on-his-luck graphic designer whose life ends abruptly. But instead of an afterlife, he awakens in a luxurious hotel room in Phoenix, Arizona, in the body of another Sun Ce—a 19-year-old, wealthy, and notoriously wild Chinese exchange student. Disoriented and armed with a new set of memories, he discovers two life-altering facts: first, his new body is tall and athletic but severely weakened by a year of partying; and second, he is the lucky winner of an NBA franchise’s publicity stunt. He has been chosen to sign a one-day contract and start as point guard for the Phoenix Suns in their final game of the season.
Thrust into a world he only ever watched from afar, the new Sun Ce must navigate this unbelievable opportunity. His journey truly begins when he activates the “Basketball Tyrant System,” a mysterious interface that grants him quests and powerful tools to transform himself from a debauched amateur into a potential basketball star. His first mission: “A Stunning Charade,” where he must impress the Suns’ coach during a tryout and then deliver a memorable performance on the NBA hardwood.
From a grueling and infamous 6+6+6 hour “Devil Training” that pushes his body to the absolute limit—making him a local internet sensation—to his first steps onto an NBA court for a tryout, the story is a masterclass in sports tension. Witness his shocking performance in a team scrimmage where he outplays a future NBA staple, and feel the electric atmosphere as he steps onto the court for his real NBA debut, facing superstar Dwyane Wade. With the help of a powerful “Star Player Experience Card,” he doesn’t just survive; he thrives, putting up a stunning stat line of 21 points and 10 assists, announcing his arrival in the most dramatic fashion possible.
This is more than just a basketball story; it’s a tale of redemption, relentless effort, and the pursuit of a dream against impossible odds. It perfectly blends the visceral detail of sports action with the thrilling possibilities of a system-based fantasy.

  • Relatable Underdog Protagonist: Sun Ce is a deeply relatable character. He’s not an instant superstar; he’s flawed, initially weak, and often overwhelmed.
