About This Novel

In 2024, Lin Zhou, a logistician for a Chinese Super League team, suddenly collapsed in front of a desk filled with financial reports, full of unwillingness and regret - he was once a football-mad boy, but his path to further education was ruined due to an impulsive fight. He was also forced to give up his love because of his father's investment failure and the family's bankruptcy. He was trapped in the mediocrity of daily necessities for half his life, with few opportunities to even touch professional football up close. As soon as he opened his eyes, the chirping of cicadas hit him in the heat wave of the midsummer of Hong Kong in 1999. The yellowed screen windows, the brand-new A-A star posters on the wall, and the familiar voice of his mother downstairs all reminded him: he was reborn and returned to a key node that changed his life. This year, the A-League was popular all over the country, with Dalian Wanda and Shanghai Shenhua in the limelight; this year, it had just been two years since Hong Kong's return to the motherland, and the streets were still full of old-school fireworks and business opportunities were everywhere; this year, he had not yet made the mistake that ruined his future, and his father's investment tragedy had not yet happened. From a boy working in a grocery store in an old tenement building in Sham Shui Po to a budding upstart in the sports industry, Lin Zhou followed the drumbeat of the times in 1999, turned his love into a career, and turned his life around with hard work. When the New Year's bell rang and the dawn of the millennium broke through the night sky, he stood under the lights of the Hong Kong Coliseum, looking at the cheering fans and familiar stars, and finally understood: rebirth is never a gift out of thin air, but allows hard work and love to shine the most dazzlingly in the best years.
