Chapter 1 Return to the summer of 2018
"So...did I travel to 5 years ago, 2018?"

In the office, Ye Lin woke up and stared at the computer screen for a long time before he could barely figure out the current situation.

He was originally "serving" three rich women, but because he tried too hard, he suddenly lost consciousness. When he woke up again, he was in another time and space.

"April 2018, 4, yes, at this time I should be working in a media company with Brother Fat and Brother Bin to shoot Douyin..."

Regarding the memory of this time period, Ye Lin was quite impressed.

At this time, he had just left school for two years. With nothing to do, he realized that short videos might become a trend in the future half a year ago, so he made a fool of himself and called his high school friends Fat Brother and Bin Brother to make short videos together.

Among them, Brother Pang provided the money, Brother Bin provided the technology, and Ye Lin appeared on the scene. The three of them jointly opened a media company called "Threesome".

However, after working for more than half a year, the number of fans of the account created for Ye Lin had not exceeded 20, and there was not a penny of profit for most of the year. In the end, the three of them broke up.

The cost of this entrepreneurial failure was heavy, and the fate of the three people changed.

The first is Brother Bin. Brother Bin had a girlfriend who was already talking about marriage, but she chose to break up with him because of this failed business venture.

Ye Lin felt very sorry for Brother Bin, and a few days later he introduced a beautiful girlfriend to Brother Bin.

Brother Bin had been dating his new girlfriend for half a year and was preparing to get married. On the day of the engagement, Brother Bin discovered that the girl had been arrested in Guangguan's anti-pornography campaign.

That day Brother Bin called Ye Lin to come out and said he wanted to treat him to dinner to thank him, but in fact he wanted to chop him with a knife.

Ye Lin was stabbed twice in the back during the chase that day.

The police arrived after receiving a call from the masses and wanted to take Brother Bin away, but Ye Lin chose not to pursue the case, saying that we were just joking.

Even worse than Brother Bin is Brother Fat.

Fat Brother lost more than 10,000 yuan in this business venture, so that a year later his two-year-old daughter became seriously ill and had no money for medical treatment, and she became permanently disabled.

One time, Ye Lin went to the hospital with a fruit basket to visit Fat Brother's daughter. Fat Brother beat him from the third floor of the hospital to the first floor and smashed the fruit basket in his face.

Thinking about it now, the memory still smells like bananas and grapes.

The two good brothers turned against him, and his career was not going well, and things started to fall apart later on.

While hanging out with a rich woman, he deceived a female high school student. He was ignorant, had no restraint, and drank and drank all day long.

I never thought that one day I would die in bed and travel to 5 years ago.

“Going back to 2018, what could I change?”

Ye Lin clenched his fist tightly, as if a glimmer of light appeared in his gloomy life.

To be honest, he has done a lot of "animal" things in his life, but those were not his original intentions.

Now that God has given him a chance to do it again, he told himself in his heart that he must live a different life this time!

"If I remember correctly, there are less than 10 days before our company is disbanded..."

Ye Lin looked at the calendar on his computer desk. The most important thing at the moment was to save Sanxing Media and not let his and Fat Brother Bin's hard work go to waste.

The core of saving this short video company is to revive the Douyin account they jointly created.

This is an account that mainly shoots funny jokes and singing talents. It currently has 17 fans.

The three brothers have a clear division of labor. In this account, Ye Lin is the protagonist, while Brother Bin is responsible for the technical aspects such as pre-shooting and post-editing. Brother Pang is responsible for financing and sometimes appears in supporting roles.

To be honest, anyone who has worked in this industry knows that a team only has 17 fans in half a year. This is actually a very poor result, and this project can definitely be cancelled.

What's more, Douyin fans are worthless at all. An account with this amount of fans has almost no monetization ability. If you continue to do so, you will only lose more money.

If you can’t make an account, the root of the problem lies in the content.

At this time, they were so lacking in imagination that they racked their brains and didn’t know what to shoot that would become popular. "Looking back now, these videos are really a piece of shit..."

Ye Lin looked at the video on Douyin's homepage and couldn't help but smile.

The videos they shoot now are indeed too low-key and awkward. The audience wants to leave after watching them for less than three seconds. It is normal for them not to become popular.

But Ye Lin is not worried. He has traveled back in time from 2023. He still remembers many hot memes on the Internet in the past few years. He also has many popular songs in his mind, and any one of them will become a hit.

"Let me see, 2018..."

It was now early April. Ye Lin searched on his mobile phone and found that the hot topics that had become popular this year had not appeared yet.

For example, [He pulls me], [Come here, brother], [I am the Tarzan next door], [Let’s learn to meow together], [Why am I so good-looking], [Is it cool to buy it], [Can, can, can, take me. Just eat], [People beat your chest with small fists]...

There are also popular songs this year, "Wild Wolf Disco", "The Wind Rises", "Clouds Turn into Rain", "Paper is Short and Love is Long", "The Rest of Life", "Last Summer", "Countdown", "Can I ”, “Things”, “Side Face” and so on.

This year IG also won the championship, and TheShy was immobilized, so it would be a bit difficult to pursue...

"What is this? A top-notch system on the entire network?"

Suddenly, Ye Lin noticed something was wrong, and there seemed to be something strange in his mind.

“The number of fans on the entire network owned by the host can be exchanged for energy points, which can be used to purchase skills and entertainment works such as songs, movies, and novels!”

"Click here to view the host panel!"

As soon as Ye Lin thought about this, an electronic prompt sounded, and a large amount of information appeared in his mind.

Have you never eaten pork and seen pigs running away? Ye Lin immediately understood that this was a bug he got after rebirth. He was overjoyed and opened the system panel without hesitation.

Host: Ye Lin.

Age: 24 years old.

Number of fans: 17.3.

Energy value: 0.

Tone: B+.

Singing skills: Proficient.

Guitar: Skilled.

……

Seeing this information, Ye Lin was not surprised. His voice was only slightly better than ordinary people.

Singing skills are divided into tone-deaf, ordinary, proficient, proficient, amateur ceiling, professional, and professional singer levels.

Since he studied at Sichuan Conservatory of Music in college, his singing skills are at a proficient level, so there is nothing to make a fuss about.

This is the result of not working very hard in college, otherwise it would be okay to have an amateur ceiling, not to mention reaching the professional level.

"The system converts all fans into energy points, and then uses them to upgrade the sound!"

Ye Lin instructed that in the field of singing, timbre determines the upper limit and singing skills determine the lower limit.

When he was in college, it was because he knew that his voice was not good enough and that he lacked talent. No matter how hard he worked, he could not become a singer.

However, now the opportunity to change his fate is right in front of him.
