    Bai Chen lay in the hospital bed, listening to the dripping of the IV. The pungent smell of disinfectant couldn't mask the nausea from chemotherapy. He raised his hand, looking at the dense needle marks on the back of his hand, and gave a bitter smile. He had been in this parallel world for three months, hoping to start a new life, but little did he know this body already harbored a time bomb—late-stage lung cancer. The doctor said that without immediate surgery, he had at most six months left. The 500,000 yuan surgery fee was an astronomical figure for an ordinary person who had just transmigrated. Then he saw an advertisement for PDD's fan club on his phone. "Champion prize: 300,000 yuan, runner-up: 200,000 yuan, third place: 100,000 yuan..." Bai Chen murmured, his fingers unconsciously stroking the phone screen. He remembered these songs from his past life, the emotions they evoked, and the nights he spent listening to them on repeat. The registration deadline was today. Bai Chen pulled out the IV and walked out of the ward amidst the nurse's surprised gaze. He needed a quiet place, and he needed a guitar. The hospital rooftop was rarely visited, making it Bai Chen's secret hideout. He held a wooden guitar he'd bought from a secondhand market and gently strummed the strings. "Scattered moonlight pierces through the clouds, hiding from the crowd, spreading out like scales on the sea..." His voice was soft, yet carried an indescribable sorrow. Chemotherapy had made his voice hoarse, but unexpectedly, it perfectly matched the song's mood. The wind billowed his oversized hospital gown, revealing his thin wrists. Once, twice, three times... Until the sun set, Bai Chen finally put the guitar away. His fingers were blistered, but compared to the pain in his chest, this was nothing. When he returned to his ward, the nurses were anxiously searching for him. "Mr. Bai, where have you been? Your condition doesn't allow you to leave the ward so easily..." "Sorry," Bai Chen smiled, "I went to find a reason to live." That night, he submitted his application video. In the video, he was wearing a hospital gown, sitting on the rooftop, with the city's neon lights behind him. No auto-tuning, no special effects, just the most authentic singing. "Too late, too late, you once laughed and cried..." ... PDD headquarters, review team. "This application video..." Reviewer Xiao Li rubbed his sore eyes, "Should we approve it directly?" "Approve it? What approval? This is the hundreds of times already." The team leader didn't even look up, "Follow the procedure, listen to 30 seconds first."
