Chen Jiale transmigrates to Xiangjiang in 1987.
That year, the global stock market crash triggered by Wall Street causes the Xiangjiang stock market to plunge by 40 percent.
Black Monday is just a week away. This is a golden opportunity to make a fortune.
What can Chen Jiale do? He has no choice but to pull a fast one on his parents.
"Mom, Dad, I got a job as a stockbroker."
"Lezai, you really found a job?"
"I did."
"Tomorrow we'll go see where you work. If it's true, we'll support you for sure."
With just these two hundred thousand, Chen Jiale begins to rise rapidly in Xiangjiang.
From then on, the world has a financial institution powerful enough to outdo the Big Five American investment banks.
This institution also takes controlling stakes in numerous Fortune Global 500 companies, spanning real estate, heavy industry, electronics, medicine, energy, shipping, and more.
One of its reports is enough to send global stock markets crashing. Its influence is everywhere.
The breakup of the Northern Bear, the oil crisis, the Asian financial crisis, Japan's bubble economy: his shadow lies behind them all.
