Three seconds after a 10.7-billion inheritance hit his account, Jiang Ye transmigrated.
When he opened his eyes again, he was a washed-up singer in the middle of a career-ending scandal, his face buried in the chest of a glamorous, mature foreign woman, caught red-handed by reporters and broadcast live nationwide.
The good news: the System told him that if he completed ten performances of designated songs, he could go back and claim his inheritance.
The bad news: if he failed to sing with enough emotional impact, he would be trapped in this world forever. But if his songs stirred up far too much emotion, he would also be stuck here for good.
The problem was, every song in Jiang Ye's head had the potential to become a smash hit.
To get home, he had to sing his heart out, then find a way to sabotage each performance.
He paired an inspirational song with a nightclub girl group in black stockings, hoping the audience would focus on their legs. Instead, the whole street marched forward to the music.
He performed "Father" at a wedding between an old man and a young woman, hoping to embarrass the guests into leaving. Instead, the white-haired groom turned out to be the same age as the bride, and a proposal in song brought millions of viewers to tears.
Everyone said Jiang Ye was a genius, and that every ridiculous arrangement concealed a brilliant artistic vision.
Only Jiang Ye, watching his emotional impact score skyrocket, wanted to unplug every speaker in the world.
"Stop getting so moved."
"You're really going to sing away my 10.7 billion inheritance."
