A Low Rank Female Goes Viral Across the Galaxy-Chapter 194: Stars

December 15th.

Competition on all the entertainment industry’s charts was exceptionally fierce.

The popularity of "Notebook" had already soared to number one.

The rankings for "Sea and Sky" and "I Love You" were also good, but they hadn’t broken into the top thirty yet.

Currently, one was at number 33, and the other at 38.

Just today, the four songs Jiang Qin had arranged for Tianwen Entertainment were released.

One of them was Yu Zhihao’s "Heaven."

That’s right, the song Jiang Qin had chosen for him was "Heaven."

When everyone clicked on the music video and saw the handsome man, they were full of anticipation.

But when he started to sing, everyone was stunned.

[??? Is that his real voice?]

[Are you sure he’s not lip-syncing? Maybe it’s a ghost singer? They could be going for shock value with the contrast, right?]

[My God, I just looked him up. This singer, Yu Zhihao, is only 29 this year.]

[How does he have the voice of an old man?]

[Haha, is it possible that even old men don’t sound like that?]

[Very possible. Interstellar males, even when they get old, just have a more weathered voice. They don’t have this kind of tone.]

[But even with the huge contrast, the song is actually really good.]

[The MV has stallions on a prairie, and his voice is the kind that makes you picture a vast grassland even without the video.]

[It’s great, I love it. So full of heroic spirit.]

[My grandpa already bought tickets to a tourist planet—he picked one with prairies. He’s even trying to find someone to get him a horse-like Alien Beast to tame...]

[Your grandpa is... certainly a man of action!]

In reality, the most shocked people at this moment were Yu Zhihao’s family, especially his father and grandfather.

Although they felt his decision to become a singer was just messing around and not a proper career, they still secretly supported him behind his back.

Afraid of upsetting him, they didn’t dare to be too obvious, so they could only help him in subtle, creative ways.

If they hadn’t secretly spoken with Tianwen Entertainment, he probably would have been dropped from his contract long ago, given his performance record.

To be honest, none of them thought Yu Zhihao could ever make a name for himself as a singer.

They all just thought he was having some fun. They figured that once he’d had enough and given up, he would naturally understand the difference between dreams and reality.

After all, his natural conditions were a major drawback. With a voice that wasn’t pleasant to listen to, it would be hard to stand out, no matter how well he sang.

’Could someone really work such miracles?’

"Zhihao, this song you sang... it’s actually pretty good..." Yu Zhihao’s father said, a bit awkwardly.

Yu Zhihao’s grandfather agreed. "This composer is good. Get in touch with them. See if we can pay to buy another two songs for Zhihao."

"Er... But if he gets more and more popular, what if he refuses to leave the entertainment industry then?"

"Then let him be. Your Riot Value isn’t high anyway. You can still hold on for another thirty years."

In any case, they never expected Yu Zhihao to take over the family business.

So they could let him do as he pleased.

Jiang Qin had no idea she was about to make another fortune. Xie Lili, who was in charge of handling communications, had been swamped lately.

The number of collaboration requests she received every day was about to overload the system.

She organized all the requests for collaboration.

She simplified the complex messages, recording only the collaborating company, the proposed terms, and the offered amount.

Then, she would research the companies or individuals, their reputations, and so on, consolidate everything into a single file, and send it to Jiang Qin.

As her workload increased, she could no longer follow Jiang Qin around and had transitioned into a behind-the-scenes assistant role.

Normally, only Xie An’an stayed by Jiang Qin’s side to handle miscellaneous tasks, run errands, and the like.

***

Because Cang Hong was at the peak of his popularity, his song was the last to be released, scheduled for the 20th.

A single song, "Stars," swept through the Interstellar.

This song was a feast for tenors and a feast for all music fans.

The high-pitched vocalization at the end, in particular, completely overturned everyone’s impression of Cang Hong.

Not even Yue Ji, who was currently second on the charts, could compare with him at this moment.

It wasn’t that Yue Ji’s high notes were inferior to his, nor that her singing skills were worse than Darling’s; she simply lost out on the composition.

However, she still had a lot of fans.

So, on the 23rd, she once again knocked Darling’s "Notebook" out of the top spot.

Meanwhile, "Stars" was steadily climbing the charts.

Jiang Qin had been busy with filming, and at the same time, multiple platforms had invited her to participate in their New Year’s Eve galas.

In the end, she agreed to appear on the Federation’s official television station.

So, by the end of the month, she had completely handed over the filming to the two directors, with Lan Yuyan helping her keep an eye on things.

She, in turn, took Yun Xie and Shi Lichuan to the Federation’s television station to rehearse.

"Miss Jiang, will you be able to perform two solo songs?"

"I can."

"Great. Have you prepared the songs?"

Jiang Qin nodded and sent over the sheet music for the two songs she had prepared long ago.

They would just play the backing track for the songs, so there was no need to find a band. She only needed to rehearse by herself once.

...

「December 30th.」

The promotional campaigns for *The Legend of the Condor Heroes* and *I Am Not a God* began.

*Medicine God* was scheduled to premiere on January 5th, while *The Legend of the Condor Heroes* would start airing on the 1st.

In truth, filming for *The Legend of the Condor Heroes* wasn’t even finished yet. *Medicine God*, on the other hand, had already entered post-production, with all matters settled and all procedures greenlit.

The television series and movie that Tianwen had prepared earlier also premiered as planned.

Because the two productions Jiang Qin had prepared were latecomers, she failed to secure a primetime slot on any platform.

She could only settle for the next best thing: the 9 p.m. slot for *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*.

This time slot wasn’t too bad, actually, since Interstellar People rarely went to bed early.

Amidst this bustling atmosphere, the first major event to arrive was the music chart lock-in at 11:59 p.m. on December 31st.

Even Jiang Qin, who never bothered to stay up for chart updates, was awake tonight.

However, besides waiting for the chart results, she also wanted to spend New Year’s Eve with her three partners and one backup partner.

That’s right, the "backup partner" referred to Cang Hong, who had shown up uninvited and was now using every excuse in the book to stay at her house and not leave.

To be honest, Jiang Qin was quite surprised by his boldness this time.

Although Cang Hong’s face was as red as a tomato, he absolutely refused to leave her house.

One moment, he was saying no one was at his home and he’d be lonely spending New Year’s Eve by himself.

The next, he was claiming it was dark and unsafe outside, that he had too many fans recently, and that he was afraid of being kidnapped on the way, so he didn’t dare go home.

Finally, just as Yun Xie was about to lose his patience and throw him out...

He finally confessed, "Qinqin, all of that just now were excuses. What I really want is... to spend New Year’s Eve with you."

"I... I want to become family with you all."

Because most people spending New Year’s Eve together today were families.

So he wanted to stay. He wanted to join her family.

Seeing that he had finally told the truth, Yun Xie scoffed, "Heh, you coward. Finally willing to be honest? Why don’t you keep being stubborn?"

Being called out like that, Cang Hong’s face turned even redder, and it looked as if his neck was about to start steaming.
