    I know the answer to this question! Every song is a global hit! The kind you can hum along to even if you've never heard it before! And the male lead debuted in the West, beat up top Western stars, and brought glory to Chinese singers!

    Although the scores aren't high, I think each book has its merits. The first one has no romantic partner for the female lead. The female lead is a deaf author who swaps places with a blind vocal music student (who excels at piano) in a parallel universe. She has a system and composes music, but doesn't sing much herself. However, it's very enjoyable and the songs she chooses fit the plot and are also very catchy. The second one involves a male lead swapping places with a superstar. The male lead travels from World 1 (Earth) to World 2 as a deliveryman, and then swaps places with a superstar from World 3. The writing is good, and the stagnant lives of the male and female leads come alive after their swap. They both live each other's lives well, and the songs they choose are beautiful. Most importantly, both protagonists feel very real, constantly dealing with various issues that arise in their lives. Besides copying songs, there are many hilarious everyday moments.

47. 97 港 Hong Kong Showbiz: Pen in Hand, Sword Pointed at TVB 港娱：执笔为剑，直指无线 A Cup of Aged Tea一盏老茶Urban1.1M WordsCompleted A story about a shameless schemer taking over Hong Kong’s entertainment industry in 1980... This isn’t a traditional Hong Kong showbiz story. There are no dinging System alerts and no gang wars or blood feuds. The book contains a little everyday Cantonese, but it doesn’t affect the main plot. The pacing is slow and grounded in reality, so proceed with caution if that’s not your thing. The protagonist is ruthlessly self-interested and decisive. If you’re a bleeding heart, this isn’t for you! 47kReads8.6Score4.1kShelves
