At 9 am in Yanzhou, office workers had already left for work. Travelers were getting busy. However, for the residents of the black streets at the bottom of the building complex, it was time to rest. Black streets had better business at night. Many people were used to a nocturnal lifestyle.
Of course, for the other half of the black streets, life and work began as usual.
In one of the rooms on the ground floor of the building complex, a young man casually brushed his hair that looked like a bird's nest. He wore a wrinkled pajamas and wiped his face carelessly. He opened the live streaming platform with a sleepy look and began his work for the day.
"Hello everyone, I am 'Lowly Little Worm.' A new day is the humble beginning..."
"Lowly Little Worm" was an otaku-esque host. He didn't have much to do during his live broadcast. He browsed through the news and said whatever he saw. Most of the comments were negative, and the comments were not in-depth or incisive. He was very ordinary. When he got lazy, he would even doze off online.
In his own words, "I am just one of the many lowly people living in the black streets at the bottom of the skyscrapers. I can't be proactive."
Without fame, the income from his live broadcast wasn't high. He could barely maintain a low-quality life. Some friends and relatives had suggested that he change his live broadcast style. His current image was sloppy and not eye-catching enough. There was no future for him to continue broadcasting.
Little Worm's view on this was: This is my style. I have no future in anything anyway. It's all about muddling through the days. This is actually relaxing.
At this time, there weren't many online viewers. Those who followed him were already used to his "lowly" opening sentence and were ready to watch another day of Little Worm's humbleness.
As usual, Little Worm browsed through the news and made a few casual comments based on the content, expressing his thoughts on the news.
Suddenly, as if he had seen some big news, the little worm looked as if he had just won a huge prize of hundreds of billions. He was shocked and in disbelief, and then jumped back and forth between ecstasy and regret.
To the audience, Little Worm seemed to be performing a pantomime of intense emotions.
Under the intense questioning of the audience, Little Worm, who had only regained his senses after a long while, said in a voice so shaky that it almost cracked, "Please forgive my lowly, uncontrollable excitement!"
Xiao Chong, who looked completely out of sorts, wiped away his mucus, his voice still trembling. Let's first play Fang Zhao's' Chasing Wind 'to lighten the mood. "
The audience: "…"
？？？
Who are you going to release?
"Horrifying! The host's style suddenly changed! Weren't all of Fang Zhao's works blocked in the past? Didn't they say it didn't suit his lowly nerd style?
"Who gave you the courage to listen to Fang Zhao? Is that something we should listen to?! "
"Are my eyes playing tricks on me? I actually saw the streamer of 'messy is beautiful' combing her hair! "
"Did the host drink too much?"
Then, he pulled down the new BGM playlist from the live stream and took a look.
Chasing Wind?
Splendor?
The Power of Life?
There were even four movements of the "100-Year Period of Destruction" series?
What kind of insane playlist was this?!!
"What happened?"
"It's here! Congratulations to the host for completing the breakthrough from 'not knowing you're a guest in your dreams' to 'getting high from sleep'! "
"Look at how he's combing his hair and washing his face. He's definitely going on a blind date!"
"That's not right. Why would a blind date show Fang Zhao's works? It's completely incompatible. "
"Little Chong, come back. Can't we just listen to Black Streets or Fallen Boys? Fang Zhao's works don't match the setting. "
However, Little Chong, who was staring off into the distance, simply did not care about the comments from the audience. His face was flushed from excitement.
"As lowly as I am!
My dream has come true!
I've been looking forward to it for a long time!
The new generation of warp engines has finally succeeded! "
The new generation of warp engines would greatly increase the efficiency of warping between planets, shortening time and reducing costs. Most importantly, the Outer Space Migration spacecraft was finally open to ordinary people! It was time to set sail!
"Moving heaven and earth! Tears of gratitude! Thanks to the N generations of warp engines! I can finally afford a ticket! "
Little Chong shared the news he had just seen with the online audience. After everyone saw the official news, they went to the Outer Space Migration Plan's star map page that had not been updated in many years. One of the planets on the development sequence had finally lit up.
According to the official introduction, the planet that had lit up had a sunflower emblem, symbolizing sunshine, optimism, and bravery. It would be the first step in the Outer Space Migration Plan! It was also the first migratory planet to be opened to the general public!
Citizens who wanted to migrate to Outer Space could start applying today. The review period would be half a year. Once the review was successful, they would immigrate in batches. Those on social security could apply for social security housing …
If the application was approved, there would be compensation. The first batch of people to migrate to Outer Space would also be able to enjoy the welfare provided by the government. They would be able to live well in the new place. It was much better than living in a black street without any sunlight! There would also be more opportunities!
Of course, the review was also very strict.
No one was in the mood to pay attention to anything else. They were all flipping through the review rules.
"It's over, it's over! Check credit! Have credit ratings! There was a delay in paying utility bills last year. Will it affect my personal credit? "
"Can the loan I forgot to pay last month still be salvageable?"
"Is there still hope for a major demerit for spreading rumors?"
"Just a quiet question. How do you explain the traffic violation record?"
"Hahahaha, I don't have any of those questions! Looks like I'll be making a move first! "
…
Some people laughed out loud in broad daylight, while others sighed in regret.
Little Chong was not in the mood to care about anything else. He combed his hair, washed his face, and changed into a clean set of clothes. He looked much more refreshed. He even turned on the dusty artificial sunlight lamp in the corner.
From today onwards, I'll change my image!
He wanted to let the review know that he, Little Chong, was an upright, optimistic, and proactive person!
On various social platforms, Little Chong's personal page swept away the dark and decadent style of the past. He changed it to a brightly colored background. His profile picture was changed to a field of sunflowers. His signature:
"As long as you give this lowly person a little hope, this lowly person will be able to see the sun again ~"
That's right, I'm the classic example of someone who can shine with a little sunlight! Even if I suddenly go to a new environment, I can adapt very quickly!
After the page was changed and the records of the past were deleted, Little Chong posted on his social platform for the first time since turning over a new leaf:
"Today is another day filled with hope!"
So, did the review fathers see my desire for sunlight!!
Unable to calm his excited emotions, Little Chong apologized to his audience and ended today's live broadcast early.
Coming out of his home, he raised his head to look at the gap between the towering buildings above him. The bright gap was like a crack in the sky.
Living at the bottom of the "cliff", even the wind carried the smell of rust and decay. He had to raise his head to see that narrow blue spot.
Ordinary, mediocre, lowly.
He had once dared to dream, but after being beaten down by society and reality, he had lost his drive.
When he was young, he had dreamed of becoming a farmer. It didn't matter if the farm was a little small. After coming of age, his biggest goal was to save up some money and go on a vacation. Since he couldn't go to the expensive scenic spots, he wanted to see Muzhou's farms with his own eyes. He wanted to see large patches of grass, enjoy eight hours of sunlight, and breathe in the fresh air of plants. But until now, this goal had yet to be realized. He had even forgotten about it.
Since when had he lost the motivation to work hard?
Holed up in a small space, day after day, venting, complaining, gloomy, and decadent.
Luckily, a new era had finally arrived!
It didn't matter if it was a little tough from the start. People who worked hard would never have it too bad.
Even if it was worse, it wouldn't be worse than now.
"Life still needs something to look forward to!"
On both sides of the black street, advertising screens were playing Fang Zhao's version of the traffic safety demonstration. Little Chong walked over and watched the promotional video from start to finish without missing a single scene.
A neighbor who was out for a stroll glanced at him suspiciously.
"Little Chong, what are you watching?"
"I'm watching Fang Zhao."
"I thought you didn't like him?"
"Nonsense! I like Fang Zhao the most! "

The success of the new generation of warp engines and the official start of applications for outer space immigration shook all parties.
Overwhelming news appeared. Whenever one took a public bus, they would hear discussions about outer space immigration.
Many major entertainment companies held emergency meetings. Even though they had heard the news and had made preparations, only when this moment came did they realize how intense the competition was and how crazy the market was.
For businessmen, this meant that not only was there a new place to live, but there was also a new war zone and a new structure!
That was a diversion from the mother planet! It might even become a second mother planet!
Although the immigration applications could not be approved immediately and there was still half a year of observation, all parties had started to move. The preparations had not been done for nothing.
For example, real estate. Before the land had even been auctioned, publicity had already begun.
All major real estate companies had released their spokespeople and relied on celebrities to attract a wave of traffic.
To celebrate the success of the immigration program, a certain real estate company that did not lack money held a celebration and invited many celebrities to participate.
It was not just real estate. Brands from all walks of life, including clothing, food, housing, and transportation, entertainment, health, and other industries, all released their own spokespeople and bombarded the market with advertisements.
In the entertainment industry, celebrities were very busy competing for endorsements and commercial appearances. Even those that had retired from the industry were being invited by businesses. Who could be idle at a time like this? That was not the lowest point of one's career. That was definitely something that people would not even remember!
The global batch of top-notch traffic was being targeted by various companies, especially people like Fang Zhao. Everyone from primary and secondary school students to retirees knew about him.
Fang Zhao's phone was about to explode with 999 + unread messages.
Fang Zhao had also received an invitation. However, this invitation did not come from those brands but from the Public Safety Bureau. What was different was that this time, it was not a continent-level Public Safety Bureau but the global headquarters of the Public Safety Bureau.
He had been invited to be the ambassador of the outer space immigration program.
