[Next novel: I'll Still Choose Figure Skating If I Get Another Chance [Competitive Sports], opening in December]
Xu Qiao was an "excellent" employee of the Quick Transmigration Bureau, outstanding in both intelligence and combat skills. But as a typical member of the paycheck-to-paycheck crowd, he had no savings at all.
One visit to the doctor sent him swiftly back into poverty. Looking at the few points left in his pocket, he tearfully bid farewell to his old, underfunded Popular Science Department and transferred to the recently established, well-funded Livestream Department.
His salary doubled, he received a cut of random viewer tips, and he even got a massive insurance policy.
Comrade Xu Qiao said he had initially been very reluctant, but they were offering far too much.
The humble wage slave shouldered his pack and embarked on a long, endless road to riches, aided by a useless System and random golden fingers from equally unreliable viewers.
World One: (Poor student to big shot) How to save yourself again and again one second before death. [Complete, revisions pending, read with caution]
World Two: (Actor to director) A blind director does scientific research. Tell me, aren't you moved? [Ongoing]
Huan Yan's upcoming novel: I'll Still Choose Figure Skating If I Get Another Chance [Competitive Sports]
Qiao Nan died in a car accident on her way home, just after earning the country its second ticket to the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Winter Olympics.
The next second, she closed her eyes and returned to 2005, when she had just started elementary school. Beside her was a System that looked like an icicle.
The System's full name was the Chinese Culture System. It ran entirely on the promotion of Chinese culture, which sustained Yu Nan's life. Before merging with its Host, it required Yu Nan to activate it and choose a goal.
[Host, please select a System task category.]
Yu Nan glanced at the words "entertainment industry," which took up 95 percent of the screen, and without hesitation chose the inconspicuous "figure skating" tucked into the corner.
[Host, based on your family background and overall abilities, the System recommends selecting the entertainment industry as your career path.]
[According to your medical report from your previous life, this career carries extremely high risks for you and is unlikely to yield energy.]
"So what?" Yu Nan chuckled and pressed Confirm on the System screen. "Even if I get another chance, I'll still choose figure skating."
"And who says figure skating can't make you famous around the world?"
From domestic competitions to the World Championships, then to the Olympic arena.
From falling flat on the ice again and again to smoothly landing a quadruple Axel.
From never managing to qualify for the free skate to repeatedly winning the same medals as if showing off.
In a wasteland, a dried-up spring came back to life, sharing her passion with those around her.
"Who says figure skating can't promote Chinese culture? And who says it can't become famous around the world?"
"With me, anything impossible can become possible."
Highlights:
1. Women's singles in a parallel world, with no real-life counterpart.
2. The author isn't an expert. All technical knowledge comes from various online platforms. Please point out any mistakes.
3. The golden finger is limited to being reborn and healing abilities, and has very little presence.
Huan Yan's trending topic: My Fans Make Me Study [Entertainment Industry]
Qin Yu, the heiress of a wealthy family, grew up showered with affection. She turned out just fine and had a smooth journey to becoming a triple-crown Best Actress, but she choked to death after eating too quickly one night and was forced to bind herself to an app called the Best Actress Growth System.
As its name suggests, the Growth System was meant to guide Qin Yu to the peak of her life.
Since Qin Yu had achieved her assigned goal early, the System changed its mission without hesitation.
It set about reforming Qin Yu, who had become a complete slob.
Qin Yu: ??? Are you sure you got this right?
System: It's fine, don't worry. You know all the teachers.

Feathers, ask yourselves: What's the thing you worry about most when it comes to your idol?
Their work? Their love life? Their character?
No. It's that they have no sense of responsibility.
Compared to other idols who always look elegant, their idol is trending every day for something different.
She slept too deeply and gave the wrong phone number, forgetting the dress she'd reserved six months in advance. It sat in the couture shop for another six months and went out of season.
She got too carried away and demolished the show's house.
She ordered takeout different numbers of times from different restaurants and failed to treat them equally, so the owners arranged a group fight to settle the score.
Feathers: Basically, she's hopelessly unreliable.
Fortunately, fan club bigwigs teamed up with Qin Yu's management to develop a dedicated "study app" for her, which let them assign her all sorts of homework.
Feathers: Chinese! Math! English! She has to study every subject! Under our supervision, Qin Yu must develop in every way, with no blind spots!

Something big happened in the entertainment industry recently: Qin Yu, the triple-crown Best Actress, was hit with one scandal after another.
Gold-digging, bullying ordinary people, buying her way into a production, dating two people at once...
The paparazzi seemed to have coordinated, spreading all kinds of rumors about this legendary Best Actress to the public on the same day.
Everyone waited for her fans to step in and control the comments and clear her name. But on the fan forum, the Feathers all sighed and, furious that she never learned, directed all their anger at the same account.
"Do you know how hard it's been for us Feathers to cover for you? Could you be more careful when you go out to eat with your brother-in-law (even though we don't acknowledge him)?"
"Sister Yu, we know you're rich, but can you be a little more discreet? Remember to disguise yourself when you go out with your dad."
"Um, it's understandable to discipline your little brother when he's being disobedient, but honey, let's respect his privacy, okay?"
That's right. The Feathers had no desire to work hard promoting their idol. To save themselves the trouble of cleaning up her messes, they held a regular educational session in their Weibo group at eight every night, trying to raise an idol who was well-rounded in virtue, intellect, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor, and who wouldn't give them a headache.
All the Feathers: No need to mention anything else. Since you've managed to break so many rules at once and let down all the careful education we've given you, Comrade Qin Yu and Comrade Xu Qingjiu must each submit a 3,000-word self-criticism before midnight tomorrow.
Qin Yu: Stop scolding me, stop scolding me. I know I was wrong!
Qin Yu: Um... can we negotiate? Not 3,000 words... how about 300?
Feathers: No negotiations!
Qin Yu: Sob.
[Highlights that don't seem very important]
1. Absurd comedy about fans and their idol. The male lead appears later (not important!).
2. A silly heiress who hates studying but is forced to study, and a cold, high-achieving scientist.
3. Silly people, silly souls. Trust me, I can write silly comedy.
Theme: Science is the primary productive force
