Qian Duo died, and the doctor wrote the cause of death on his death certificate: abject poverty.
996, a civil servant of the quick transmigration System, bound him to a quick transmigration System that required him to "use money to buy things money can't buy."
996: "Every time you enter a world, you'll gain the power to print unlimited cash after one week. There's only one goal: use the power of money to complete the impossible."
Qian Duo: "Are you kidding me? Is there anything in this world money can't buy?"
Mission One:
[Help an idol return to the entertainment industry's top tier]
Qian Duo: "Can't you give my artist another chance? He's really worked hard. He deserves to be seen by more people."
The person in charge kicked Qian Duo aside. "Who do you think you are? You dare come here asking me for resources?"
Ding! System notification: Funds have arrived.
Qian Duo straightened up. "Sorry, I'm claiming this spot for him."
The person in charge: "You dare challenge me? Do you think your people will have a career after this?"
Suddenly, the boss raced over at a hundred meters' pace and slapped the person in charge to the ground. "What the hell do you think you're doing, talking to our big benefactor like that? Mr. Qian, those underlings of mine are blind. This program could only air smoothly thanks to your sponsorship. I'll make sure your artist becomes a star."
Qian Duo said to 996, "So, is there anything money can't get done?"
996: "You're amazing. By all means, carry on."
Mission Two:
[Help an esports team on the verge of disbanding win the world championship.]
Mid laner: "Sorry, I'm joining another team."
Qian Duo: "Didn't we promise to stand together on the world championship stage? Didn't we promise to climb that mountain and see the most beautiful view together? Didn't you promise to take me to the finals to eat hot dogs? You can't give up on your dream for a little short-term gain."
Mid laner: "Boss, it's not about the money. My teammates are so bad I really can't carry them."
Ding! System notification: Funds have arrived.
Qian Duo straightened up. "For the sake of this fifty million, please give the kids another hand."
The mid laner immediately sat back down. After thinking it over, he said, "Help me up. I'll give it another try."
The power of money was immense, and Qian Duo became more and more convinced that there was nothing money couldn't buy.
But... was that really true?
996 gave a cold laugh, and the System began raising the difficulty.
Mission: Use money to help someone with a serious illness live for another year.
Mission: Use money to help the director of a domestic film with a Douban rating of 2.3 win an Oscar.
Mission: Use money to avert the apocalypse caused by a meteorite destroying the world.
Mission: Use money to make this world a better place.
Qian Duo: "Screw this, I'm done! I'm just a heartless money-printing machine and ATM. I have nothing but money."
996: "The greater your power, the greater your responsibility."
Theme: Money doesn't let you do whatever you want.
