Li Ziran was one of the two recognized gifted girls in the class, with the other one being the class flower (most beautiful girl). Both were multitalented and achieved top academic scores not only in their class but also across the entire grade level. Out of the two gifted girls, only the class flower was deemed as both intelligent and beautiful. Li Ziran was considerably more attractive than average, but if one had to describe her in two words, they could only say 'dignified and refined.' When describing the class flower, however, one could easily bring out phrases like 'eclipses the moon and shames the flowers.'

There was a substantial difference in popularity between Li Ziran and the class flower. That fellows like Liu Shiqing and Zhang Songsheng, who didn't show much seriousness, often jokingly called Li Ziran "Madame Head Girl" was telling. While the class flower was proudly aloof and not much of a team player, those from outside the class who knew limited about her, frequently sought to present her with flowers and love letters. Most members of High School Second Year (Class 9) did not interact much with the class flower. In contrast, the approachable Li Ziran enjoyed significant popularity within the class.

Upon hearing Li Ziran's suggestion, Zhang Songsheng chimed in, "Shiqing, wouldn't you respond promptly to Madam Head Girl's call and hum a couple of tunes for me to listen to?"

Liu Shiqing glanced at Zhang Songsheng, "I can do that, but you need to treat me to lunch today. Also, you need to cover my lunch for the next month."

Zhang Songsheng, being a big spender, responded, "As long as it's good, even if it's for an entire year, it's not a problem. Just don't pick Wuling Guesthouse, anywhere else is fine."

Zhang Songsheng's financial situation was considered slightly better, his father owned a food processing factory with assets of around three to four million. He couldn't afford to splurge at the Wuling Guesthouse, the only four-star hotel in Wuling City. Besides, in this era, there are countless numbers wealthier than Zhang Songsheng. Even in Wuling County No.1 Middle School, there are several students who are millionaires.

Liu Shiqing chuckled, "There's no need to go to such fancy places like the Wuling Guesthouse. I'm not demanding, this small restaurant will do, just order the daily specials."

Zhang Songsheng nodded, "So, it's just fifty or sixty Yuan a day? Deal."

Liu Shiqing said in a low voice, "Eat quickly then, we'll find a quiet place after we're done, and I'll hum the tune that I dreamt of for you guys."

The three of them finished their meal hurriedly, Zhang Songsheng paid the bill, and they returned to school together. They went to a corner of the school playground, a training ground for student athletes. It was noon, and the athletes had gone for their break, making the place vacant.

"Sing away, Shiqing. Your big brother here is prepared to have my ears violated," Zhang Songsheng said, acting as though in agony.

Liu Shiqing closed his eyes, recalling the song "Beautiful Galaxy" he heard the day before. To his surprise, he remembered every detail of the tune very clearly.

Liu Shiqing softly hummed the tune from beginning to end. It was hard not to say, Zhang Songsheng was right: his musical skills were a sight for sore eyes. After he hummed "Beautiful Galaxy", the beautiful, ethereal, and enchanting ambience of the tune was reduced by at least eighty percent. Despite this, Li Ziran and Zhang Songsheng still fell for it instantly.

Once Liu Shiqing had finished humming the tune, Li Ziran was the first to come back to her senses, her lively eyes sizing up Liu Shiqing non-stop. Zhang Songsheng came back to reality a moment later, his eyes dazed. He cursed, "Damn! That was even more enjoyable than watching video of Michael Jordan winning championships. Shiqing, quickly organize this song and send it to Fog City. If the Fog City Olympic Committee doesn't select this song as the theme of the 30th Olympic Games, I promise to carry a banner to protest in front of the committee building."

Li Ziran said, "Liu Shiqing, if you trust me, I can bring two close friends over your place tomorrow, or find somewhere quiet. We should try to organize the song using tomorrow's time, and send it to Fog City as soon as possible."

Zhang Songsheng nodded incessantly, "Yes, we must hurry up. There are only a few days left until the deadline. This time, we must truly startle those foreigners, by showing them that even in our dreams, we can take the laurel of the Olympics theme song. It'll scare them to death."

The following day was Saturday. For the students of Wuling County No.1 Middle School, apart from the Senior Three students who lived significantly more tense lives, life for the High School Second Years was rather flexible, with at least the weekends off for rest.

Yesterday evening, Liu Shiqing used the signal receiver to easily find the music score, lyrics, accompaniment, and other crucial details of "Beautiful Galaxy" from the internet that existed over six hundred years in the future. He did not need Li Ziran to bring anyone over; Liu Shiqing could easily transcribe "Beautiful Galaxy" and send it to the Fog City Olympic Committee. However, Liu Shiqing didn't do this. The musical instruments used in "Beautiful Galaxy" significantly differed from the ones found on Earth at the moment. Liu Shiqing didn't dare to send the futuristic music to the Fog City Olympic Committee without making any changes.

To present "Beautiful Galaxy" in a way that modern Earth people could accept, it was necessary to adapt the song. In this regard, Li Ziran was more suitable than Liu Shiqing to undertake this work.

After sorting out his thoughts, Liu Shiqing turned on the radio mode of the signal receiver, and drifted off to sleep while listening to sounds from more than six hundred years in the future.

The next day, Liu Shiqing woke up refreshed, the signal receiver had already automatically shut off. Liu Shiqing turned on the signal receiver again. This time, instead of tuning into radio signals from the future, he listened to the 6:30 AM "News and Newspaper Digest" show from Huaxia National Radio. Liu Shiqing didn't have much time to watch television, even on weekends, he needed to spend a significant amount of time completing his assignments, so listening to the radio had become his main way of obtaining information from the outside world.

After Liu Shiqing tuned his signal receiver, just as the stirring prelude ended, the attractive voice of the female announcer began, "Hello to all our listeners, good morning. Today is March 17, 2012, Saturday, the 25th day of the lunar calendar. Yanjing is cloudy, temperature is between minus five degrees to ten degrees. Following is our content coverage…"

At this moment, someone knocked on his door, "Shiqing, are you up yet? Hurry up and open the door."

While brushing his teeth, Liu Shiqing walked from the bathroom and opened the door. With the cool spring breeze, Zhang Songsheng charged in, "It's freezing outside. This year's weather is even colder than the last. Didn't those scientists say there's global warming? How come I don't feel it at all?"

Liu Shiqing brushed his teeth hurriedly, "Why did you come so early? Didn't the Head Girl say we'd meet at eight?"

Zhang Songsheng chuckled, "Of course, I came to supervise you, so you don't embarrass me. I've asked around, the two friends Head Girl is bringing are her top-secret close friends, Shiqing, want to know who they are?"
